Header branch can be used with a line branch at the three pipes segment and two pipes segment.
Header branch can also be used after the second branch. Do not connect a line branch to a header branch.
When using a header branch, make sure that the piping length L2 from the multi-kit at the first branch to the
farthest indoor unit is within 131.2 ft (40m).
In case of the change-over box (multiple branch type) is connected, the following restrictions apply.
Header branch can not be connected before and after change-over box (multiple branch type).
Also, header branch can not connect to another header branch.
