PIPING BETWEEN MDC AND OUTDOOR UNIT
Figure 15 shows the typical piping layout between the
outdoor unit, MDC, and sub MDC. Table 14 shows pipe
diameters to use when connecting the outdoor unit and main
MDC. Tables 15 and 16 show how to connect low and high
pressure pipes to specific outdoor unit models.

Main MDC

CAUTION
When connecting from an indoor unit to an outdoor unit,
the isolation valve at the outdoor unit should be in the
closed position throughout the refrigerant piping process.
Failure to follow this procedure may result in equipment
damage.
