14.6 REFRIGERANT CHARGING QUANTITY
In case of the actual piping length is more than the specied length, the additional refrigerant quantity should be charged according 
to the table below:
Outdoor unit refri-
gerant charge (kg)
Chargeless length (m)
Additional refrigerant charge (P) 
(kg/m)
Max additional 
charge (kg)

RAS-2HVNP1 1.6 30 0 0.03 0.03 1.5
RAS-2.5HVNP1 1.6 30 0 0.03 0.024 1.2
RAS-3HVNC1 1.9 20 20 0.04 0.04 1.2
RAS-3HVRNS3 1.9 20 20 0.04 0.04 1.2
1  Determine an additional refrigerant quantity according to the following procedure, and charge it into the system.
2  Record the additional refrigerant quantity to facilitate service activities thereafter.
  CAUTION
•  When charging refrigerant accurately measure refrigerant to be charged.
•  Overcharging or undercharging of refrigerant can cause compressor trouble.
•  In case of actual piping length less than 5 m, consult your distributor.
 
Additional refrigerant quantity calculation
Calculate piping length L(m)
Outdoor unit
Indoor unit
L: Piping Length
l: Chargeless length
P: Additional refrigerant charge
(a): No additional charge is required: L≤l
(b): Additional charge is required: L≥l
W (additional charge quantity) = (L-l) x P
Example:
L: 50 m
l: 30 m
P: 0.03
L = 50

W (additional charge quantity) = (50-30) x 0.03 = 0.6 kg
 
Setting of Pipe Length DSW.
DSW2  setting  will  be  required  only  when  the  refrigerant  pipe 
length is shorter than 5 m or longer than 30 m. Pipe length setting 
shall be performed as shown below.
(The  side in the table below shows the DSW location)
