3 Refrigerant Piping Design
3.1 Design Considerations
Refrigerant piping design should take account of the following considerations:
The
amount of brazing required should be kept to a minimum.
On the
two inside sides of the first indoor branch joint (“A” in Figures 3-3.4 and Figure 3-3.5) the system should, as far
as possible, be equal in terms of number of units, total capacities and total piping lengths.
3.2 Material Specification
Only seamless phosphorus-deoxidized copper piping that complies with all applicable legislation should be used. Temper
grades and minimum thicknesses for different diameters of piping are specified in Table 3-3.1.

3.3 The Permitted Piping Lengths and Level Differences
The piping length and level difference requirements that apply are summarized in Table 3-3.2 and are fully described as
follows (refer to Figure 3-3.1 and Figure 3-3.2):
