NOTE — The above nameplate is for illustration purposes only. Go to
actual nameplate on outdoor unit for charge information.
CHARGING METHOD FOR LONG LINE SETS
NOTE — Insulate liquid line when it is routed through areas where
the surrounding ambient temperature could become higher than the
temperature of the liquid line or when pressure drop is equal to or
greater than 20 psig.
Amount specified
on nameplate
Adjust amount. for variation in
line set length and liquid line
diameter using table below.

Example
: Units are factorycharged for 15 feet (4.6 meters) of 3/8" line set.
Factory charge for 3/8" is 0.60 oz/ft x 15 = 9.0 ounces.
Charging Formula for Liquid Line Charge Adjustments
[(Line set oz./ft. x total length) (factory charge for line set)] = charge adjustment

Note Shaded rows indicate rated liquid line size
1. Find your unit on the left side of the table
.
2. Start with the rated liquid line size (shaded row) on the outdoor unit
3. Select the actual Total Linear Length of your system shown at the top of the table
.
4. The elevation listed in the table is the maximum allowed for the liquid line listed.
5. Select or consider the larger liquid line size shown in the table if the elevation does not meet your requirements
.
NOTE - For new or replacement line set installation, refer to Service and Application Note - Corp. 9112-L4 (C-91-4).
