WARNING
• In case of pipe diameter B connected after first branch is bigger
than the main pipe diameter A, B should be of the same size
with A.
Ex) In case indoor unit combination ratio 120% is connected to
70kW outdoor unit.
1) Outdoor unit main pipe diameter A : Ø34.9(Low pressure
gas pipe), Ø15.88(liquid pipe), Ø28.58(High Pressure liq-
uid pipe)
2) Pipe diameter B after first branch according to 120% in-
door unit combination(84kW) : Ø34.9(Low pressure gas
pipe), Ø19.05(liquid pipe), Ø28.58(High Pressure liquid
pipe)
Therefore, pipe diameter B connected after first branch
would be Ø34.9(Low pressure gas pipe), Ø15.88(liquid
pipe), Ø28.58(High Pressure liquid pipe) which is same
with main pipe diameter.
[Example]
Do not choose the main pipe diameter by downward indoor unit
total capacity but its outdoor unit model name.
Do not let the connection pipe from branch to branch exceed the
main pipe diameter chosen by outdoor unit model name.
EX) Where connecting the indoor units to the 22 HP (61.5 kW)
outdoor unit to 120% of its system capacity (73.8 kW) and
branching 7k (2.1kW) indoor unit at the 1st branch
Main pipe diameter(22 HP outdoor unit): Ø28.58(Low pressure
gas pipe), Ø15.88(Liquid pipe), Ø22.2(High pressure gas pipe)
Pipe diameter between 1st and 2nd branch (71.7kW indoor units):
Ø34.9(Gas pipe) Ø19.05(Liquid pipe) in conformity with down-
ward indoor units.
Since the main pipe diameter of 22HP outdoor unit is
Ø28.58(Low pressure gas pipe), Ø15.88(Liquid pipe), Ø22.2(High
pressure gas pipe) is used as the main pipe and the connection
pipe between 1st and 2nd branch.
!
CAUTION
• Bending radius should be
at least twice the diameter
of the pipe.
• Bend pipe after 500mm or
more from branch(or
header).
Do not bend U type.
It may cause Performance
unsatisfactory or noise.
!
500mm or more 500mm or more
