4.6.1 Calculating Refrigerant Charge—Example
Using Table 4.3 on page42,Table 4.4 on page42,Table 4.5 on the previous page andTable 4.6 on the
previous page, calculate the refrigerant charge of the individual sections of your Liebert XD system. Add
the calculated charge amounts to determine the amount of R-134a refrigerant required for one system
combining a Liebert XDC with Liebert XD cooling modules (Liebert XD CoolFrame, Liebert XDH, Liebert
XDO and Liebert XDV). The example below combines one Liebert XDC with 20 Liebert XDV8 cooling
modules.
