Pipe size "a" selection : The length that between outdoor unit and the farthest indoor unit.
a + b + c + f3 =326 ft. (100 m) > 295 ft. (90m)
Therefore Gas pipe must be size up from 5/8" (15.88 mm) to 3/4" (19.05 mm). (Refer 2-3. PIPE
SIZE)

312 (95) 165 (50)
A = (0.039 x 311) + (0.014 x 164) = 14.48 (lbs.)
[(0.058 x 95) + (0.021 x 50) = 6.56 (kg)]
2. Factory charged amount
Model
Factory charged
amount lbs. (kg)
Outdoor unit AOU48 11.7 (5.30)
B = 11.7 (lbs.)
[ 5.30 (kg)]
3. Total refrigerant amount check
C = A + B = 14.48 + 11.7 = 26.18 (lbs.) < 34.61 (lbs.) → OK
[6.56 + 5.30 = 11.86 (kg) < 15.70 (kg) → OK]
Check pipe length and height difference between units by comparing with items shown in "2-2.PIPING
LIMITATION".
