9.1. Calculation of additional refrigerant
charge
[PUHY-P400/500YEM-A]
•
Additional refrigerant charge
At the time of shipping, the outdoor unit PUHY-P400 is charged with 16 kg of
refrigerant and the PUHY-P500 is charged with 21 kg. As this charge does not
include the amount needed for extended piping, additional charging for each re-
frigerant line will be required on site. In order that future servicing may be properly
provided, always keep a record of the size and length of each refrigerant line and
the amount of additional charge by writing it in the space provided on the outdoor
unit.
•
Calculation of additional refrigerant charge
• Calculate the amount of additional charge based on the length of the piping
extension and the size of the refrigerant line.
• Use the table to the right as guide to calculating the amount of additional
charging and charge the system according.
• If the calculation results in a fraction of less than 0.1 kg, round up to the next
0.1 kg. For example, if the result of the calculation was 15.02 kg, round the
result up to 15.1 kg.

The total length of each liquid line is as follows:
ø15.88: A = 30 m
ø12.7: B + C = 10 + 15 = 25 m
ø9.52: a + b = 10 + 20 = 30 m
ø6.35: c + d + e = 10 + 10 + 10 = 30 m

Additional refrigerant charge
The outdoor unit is charged with refrigerant at the time of shipping according to the
chart above. As this charge does not include the amount needed for extended
piping, additional charging for each refrigerant line will be required on site. In order
that future servicing may be properly provided, always keep a record of the size
and length of each refrigerant line and the amount of additional charge by writing it
in the space provided on the outdoor unit.
•
Calculation of additional refrigerant charge
• Calculate the amount of additional charge based on the length of the piping
extension and the size of the refrigerant line.
• Use the table to the right as guide to calculating the amount of additional
charging and charge the system according.
• If the calculation results in a fraction of less than 0.1 kg, round up to the next
0.1 kg. For example, if the result of the calculation was 20.03 kg, round the
result up to 20.1 kg.
• If the total amount of refrigerant including the amount of refrigerant sealed in
the outdoor unit when shipped from the factor plus additional refrigerant for
extension piping exceeds 73 kg, use 73 kg as the total amount of refrigerant.
Amount of refrigerant when shipped from f added refrigerant = 73 kg.
