The LG-supplied Y-Branch kit PMBL5620 MUST be used when
installing two (2) branch distribution units in parallel on one (1) Multi
F MAX system. Field-supplied fittings are not permitted. Each
Y-Branch kit includes two (2) Y-branches (one for the liquid line and
one for the vapor line) and insulation covers.
Y-branches may be installed in horizontal or vertical configura-
tions. When installed vertically, position the Y-branch so the straight
through leg is ±3° of plumb. When installed horizontally, position the
Y-branch so the take-off leg is level and shares the same horizontal
plane as the straight-through leg ±5° rotation.
Y-branches must be properly installed following instructions in the
applicable LG manual. Y-branches must always be installed with the
single port facing the outdoor unit and the two-port end facing the
branch distribution units.
Do not install Y-branches backwards as
refrigerant flow cannot make U-turns. The Y-branch kit must be locat-
ed at least three (3) feet from the outdoor unit. Provide a minimum of
20 inches between a Y-branch and the branch distribution unit.
It is recommended that when a Y-branch is located in a pipe chase
or other concealed space, access doors must be provided for
inspection access.
