Refrigerant piping installation
◆
The Amount of Refrigerant
The calculation of the additional charge should take account of the length of pipe.
WARNING
Regulation for refrigerant leakage
: the amount of refrigerant leakage should satisfy the following equation for human safety.
❐
If the above equation can not be satisfied, then follow the following steps.
- Selection of air conditioning system: select one of the next
1. Installation of effective opening part
2. Reconfirmation of outdoor unit capacity and piping length
3. Reduction of the amount of refrigerant
4. Installation of 2 or more security device (alarm for gas leakage)
- Change indoor unit type
: installation position should be over 2m from the floor (wall mounted type
→
cassette type)
- Adoption of ventilation system
: choose ordinary ventilation system or building ventilation system
- Limitation in piping work
: Prepare for earthquake and thermal stress
WARNING
Refer to model information since the CF value of correction factor differs depending
on model.
