• Calculation of additional charge refrigerant
– Calculation of additional amount for pipe length (A)
Diameter of liquid pipe (mm)
Additional amount for pipe
length (kg/m)
Liquid pipe length (m)
Ø12.70 0.114 15
Ø9.52 0.058 55
Ø6.35 0.021 82
A = (0.114 kg × 15 m) + (0.058 kg × 55 m) + (0.021 kg × 82 m) = 6.62 (kg)
– Calculation of factory charge amount (B)
Outdoor unit Model name Factory charge amount (kg)

7.0
B = 7.0 (kg)
– Total refrigerant amount check (C)
C = A + B = 6.62 + 7.0 = 13.62 (kg) < 20 (kg) → OK
Check pipe length and height difference between the units by comparing with "Piping limitation" on
page 06-17.
