Values in Table 9 are based on 105°F condensing temperature. Multiply table capacities by the following factors for other
condensing temperatures.

Notes for Table 9:
1. Table capacities are in tons of refrigeration.
2. ∆p = pressure drop due to line friction, psi per 100 ft of
equivalent line length
3. ∆t = corresponding change in saturation temperature,
°F per 100 ft
4. Line capacity for other saturation temperatures ∆t and
equivalent lengths L
e
5. Saturation temperatures ∆t for other capacities and
equivalent lengths L
