VRV IV+ heat pump for high ambient temperatures
4P561157-1B – 2021.11
NOTICE
The refrigerant charge of the system must be less than 100 kg. This means that in
case the calculated total refrigerant charge is equal to or more than 95 kg you must
divide your multiple outdoor system into smaller independent systems, each
containing less than 95 kg refrigerant charge. For factory charge, refer to the unit
name plate.

(a)
Piping length is considered the distance from the outdoor unit to the farthest indoor unit.
(b)
Total CR = Total indoor unit capacity connection ratio
(c)
In case of a multi-outdoor-unit system, add the sum of the individual outdoor unit charge
factors.
Metric piping.
When using metric piping, replace the weight factors in the formula
by the ones from the following table:
