16.3 To determine the additional
refrigerant amount
WARNING
The maximum indoor capacity index which can be
connected to a BS unit port is determined based on the
smallest room served by that port.
In case the system serves the lowest underground floor of
a building, there is an extra limit to the maximum allowable
total refrigerant amount. This maximum refrigerant amount
is determined based on the area of the smallest room on
the lowest underground floor.
See "13 Special requirements for R32 units" [4 21] to
determine the maximum allowable total refrigerant amount.
INFORMATION
For final charge adjustment in the test laboratory, please
contact your local dealer.
INFORMATION
Note down the amount of additional refrigerant that is
calculated here, for later use on the additional refrigerant
charge label. See "16.8To fix the fluorinated greenhouse
gases label"[439].
NOTICE
The refrigerant charge of the system must be less than
63.8 kg. This means that in case the calculated total
refrigerant charge is equal to or more than 63.8 kg you
must divide your multiple outdoor system into smaller
independent systems, each containing less than 63.8 kg
refrigerant charge. For factory charge, refer to the unit
name plate.
NOTICE
The total refrigerant charge amount in the system MUST
always be lower than 15.96 [kg]× the number of indoor
units connected downstream of BS units, with a maximum
of 63.8kg.

INFORMATION
▪ In case of a multi-outdoor-unit system, add the sum of
the individual outdoor unit charge factors.
▪ When using more than one multi BS unit, add the sum
of the individual BS unit charge factors.
▪ Parameter A: If the total indoor unit capacity connection ratio
(CR)>100%, charge an additional 0.5kg of refrigerant per outdoor
unit.
▪ Parameter B: Outdoor unit charge factors
