*1: Use the same size as the main pipe if it is larger than the main pipe.
*2: Use a suction gas pipe and a liquid pipe for the two pipes branching downstream from the flow selector unit and the dedicated cooling circuit.
*3: Select the branch pipe of the first branch according to the outdoor capacity code.
*4: Select according to the outdoor unit capacity code if the total of the indoor capacity codes exceeds the outdoor unit capacity code.
*5: Up to a total of 54 (kBtu/h) maximum capacity code is connectable to one line after branching header.
When using a branching header for the 1st branch and the total capacity codes of all outdoor units are 120 type or more, use a
RBM-HY2043FUL or RBM-HY2083FUL regardless of the total capacity codes of indoor units at downstream side.
*6: The downstream starting point is the main pipe.
*7: Only group operation with one remote control (or two remote controls) is possible if one flow selector unit is connected to multiple indoor units.
