Selection of piping material
■
Construction material: phosphoric acid deoxidized seamless
copper for refrigerant.
■
Temper grade: use piping with temper grade in function of the
pipe diameter as listed in table below.
■
The pipe thickness of the refrigerant piping should comply with
relevant local and national regulations. The minimal pipe
thickness for R-410A piping must be in accordance with the
table below.

The pipes between the outdoor unit and the branch (L1) should have
the same size as the outdoor connections. The pipes between the
branch and the indoor units (L2~L5) should have the same size as
the indoor connections. Branch: see marking '

Allowable pipe length and height difference
See the table below concerning lengths and heights. Refer to figures
,
. Assume that the longest line in the figure corresponds
with the actual longest pipe, and the highest unit in the figure
corresponds with the actual highest unit.
