NOTE – Maximum lifts are dependent on total length,
number of elbows, etc. that contribute to total pressure
drop.
• Maximum length vapor riser = 60 feet.
• Up to 50 Linear Feet: Use rated line sizes listed in table
1.
• Between 51 and 150 Linear Feet: Crankcase heater
and nonbleed port TXV factory installed. No additional
components required. Vertical vapor riser must be sized
to the vapor riser listed in the table 2 on systems with
line sets longer than 51 feet. Use tables 2 and 3 to de-
termine the correct liquid and vapor line sizes.
• Over 150 Linear Feet: not recommended.
• Additional oil is not required for systems with line lengths
up to 150 feet.
SUCTION TRAPS
For systems with the outdoor unit 5 - 60 feet above the
indoor unit, one trap must be installed at the bottom of the
suction riser.
