• Refrigerant of 3kg [6.6 lbs] equivalent to 50m
[165 ft] total extended piping length is
already included when the outdoor unit is
shipped.
Thus, if the total extended piping length is
50m [165 ft] or less, there is no need to
charge with additional refrigerant.
• If the total extended piping length exceeds
50m [165 ft], calculate the required additional
refrigerant charge using the procedure
shown on the right.
• If the calculated additional refrigerant charge
is a negative amount, do not charge with any
refrigerant.

1 : P24 A : W9.52 [3/8"] 30 m [98ft] a : W9.52 [3/8"] 15m [49ft]
2 : P15 b : W6.35 [1/4"] 10m [33 ft]
3 : P08 c : W6.35 [1/4"] 10m [33 ft]
4 : P06 d : W6.35 [1/4"] 20m [66 ft]
The total length of each liquid line is as follows;
W9.52 : A + a = 30 m + 15 m = 45 m [98 ft + 49 ft = 147 ft]
W6.35 : b + c + d = 10 m + 10 m + 20 m = 40 m [33 ft + 33 ft + 66 ft = 132 ft]
