1. Main tubing length LM = LA + LB … 262 ft
2. Main distribution tubes LC – LH are selected according to the capacity after the distribution joint.
3.
4. Sizes of indoor unit connection tubing 1 – 40 are determined by the connection tubing sizes on the indoor units.
The outdoor connection main tubing (LO portion) is determined by the total capacity of the outdoor units that are
connected to the tube ends.
Select the installation location so that the length and size of refrigerant tubing are within the allowable range shown in the figure below.
Do not use commercially available T-joints for the liquid tubing and parts.
* Be sure to use special R410A distribution joints (APR:
purchased separately ) for outdoor unit connections and tubing branches.
NOTE
1-5. Tubing Length
1: The outdoor connection main tubing (LO portion) is determined by the total capacity of the outdoor units that are connected to
the tube ends.
2: If the longest tubing length (L1) exceeds 295 ft. (equivalent length), increase the sizes of the main tubes (LM) by 1 rank for gas
tubes and liquid tubes. (Use a field supply reducer.) (Select the tube size from the table of main tube sizes (Table 1-3) on the
following page (LA table), and from the table of refrigerant tubing sizes (Table 1-8) on the second following page.)
3: If the longest main tube length (LM) exceeds 164 ft., increase the main tube size at the portion before 164 ft. by 1 rank for the
gas tubes. (Use a field supply reducer.)
(For the portion that exceeds 164 ft., set based on the main tube sizes (LA) listed in the table on the following page.)
4: If the size of the existing tubing is already larger than the standard tubing size, it is not necessary to further increase the size.
* If the existing tubing is used, and the amount of on-site additional refrigerant charge exceeds the value listed below, then
change the size of the tubing to reduce the amount of refrigerant.
Max. additional charge for 1 outdoor unit: 62 lbs
Max. additional charge for 2 outdoor units: 111lbs
