NOTE
•  Some  refrigerant  charge  calculations  differ  when  installing 
Wall Type (RPK-FSNH3M Series) with the expansion valve 
kit.  Refer to the item Additional refrigerant calculation for wall 
type (RPK-FSNH3M Series) with the expansion valve kit.
•  Ensure that the total additional charge quantity should not ex-
ceed the max. additional refrigerant charge quantity shown in 
the table on the next page.

Record of additional charge
Total refrigerant charge of this system is calculated in the follow-
ing formula.
Total refrigerant charge =  W     +     W0

  NOTE
•  W0 is outdoor unit refrigerant charge before shipment.
•  In  case  of  the  combination  of  the  base  units,  calculate  the 
total refrigerant charge before shipment of the outdoor units 
to be combined.
Regarding the uorocarbon, follow the specication label or re-
frigerant  label  attached  to  the  product.  After  the  additional  re-
frigerant charge, record the total refrigerant (= refrigerant before 
shipment  +  additional  refrigerant  in  the  eld)  in  the  refrigerant 
label (*).
(*): In case of the combination of base units, record the total re-
frigerant in the main unit label.
  NOTE
When  the  refrigerant  is  recovered  or  charged  because  of 
repairing, operating or adjusting the unit, record the refrigerant 
quantity again.
  NOTE
•  Emissions of the uorocarbons without any reason are pro-
hibited.
•  For disposal and maintenance of this product, collection of 
uorocarbons is required.
 
 
Additional refrigerant calculation for wall type 
(RPK-FSNH3M Series) with the expansion valve kit
The additional refrigerant calculation for wall type (RPK-FSNH3M 
Series) with the  expansion  valve  kit is as  follows.  Refer  to  the 
item Calculating method of additional refrigerant charge W1.
Firstly  calculate  the  additional  refrigerant  amount  for  the  liquid 
pipe between Multi-Kit and the expansion valve kit according to 
the piping length and diameter. 
Then,  calculate  the  additional  refrigerant  amount  for  the  liquid 
pipe between indoor unit and the expansion valve kit (Pipe diam-
eter: ∅6.35 refrigerant amount for 1m pipe: 0.011kg/m).
L< 15m:Ø6.35
