Additional refrigerant charge amount
Additional refrigerant charge amount is calculated from the liquid tubing total length as follows.

1-6. Check of Limit Density
When installing an air conditioner in a room, it is necessary
to ensure that if the refrigerant gas accidentally leaks out, its
density does not exceed the limit level for that room.
If the density could exceed the limit level, it is necessary to
provide an opening between the unit and the adjacent room,
or to install mechanical ventilation which is interlocked with
the leak detector.
(Total refrigerant charged amount: kg)
(Min. indoor volume where the indoor unit is installed: m

)
Limit density 0.3 (kg/m
3
)
The limit density of refrigerant which is used in this unit is 0.3
kg/m
3
(ISO 5149).
The shipped outdoor unit comes charged with the amount of
refrigerant fixed for each type, so add it to the amount that
is charged in the field. (For the refrigerant charge amount at
shipment, refer to the unit’s nameplate.)
Always check the gas
density limit for the room in
which the unit is installed.
WARNING
Check of limit density
Pay special attention to any location,
such as a basement, etc., where leaking
refrigerant can accumulate, since
refrigerant gas is heavier than air.
Minimum indoor volume and floor area as
against the amount of refrigerant is roughly as
given in the following table.
