Pipe connections between indoor and outdoor unit
ENGLISH
Ú
Refrigerant pipe diameter from branch to branch (B,C,D)
WARNING
* : Serial connection of HR units : Capacity sum of indoor units ≤ 192.4 kBtu/hr
• Refer to the HR unit PCB part for the valve group control setting.
• It is recommended that difference in pipe lengths between an HR unit and indoor units, for example
difference in length of a, b, c, and d, be minimized. The larger difference in pipe lengths, the more different
performance between indoor units.
• Piping length from outdoor branch to outdoor unit ≤ 10m, equivalent length : max 13m (for 22HP or more)
j
If the large capacity indoor units (Over 5 HP; using over Ø15.88/Ø9.52) are installed, it should be used the
