allowable length after branching as indicated below.
Definitions
Actual piping length: pipe length between outdoor
(1)
and indoor units.
Equivalent piping length
(2)
: pipe length between outdoor
(1)
and
indoor units.
Total piping length: total piping length from the outdoor
(1)
to all indoor
units.
Difference in height between outdoor and indoor units: H1
Difference in height between indoor and indoor units: H2
Difference in height between outdoor and outdoor units: H3
(1)
If the system capacity is >10HP, re-read "the first outdoor branch as seen
from the indoor unit".
(2)
Assume equivalent piping length of Refnet joint=0.5 m, Refnet
header=1 m, BSVQ100/160=4 m and BSVQ250=6 m (for calculation
purposes of equivalent piping length, not for refrigerant charge
calculations).
