5. Installing the refrigerant piping
5.5. Stop valve opening method (Fig. 5-6)
(1) Remove the cap and turn the valve rod counterclockwise as far as it will go with
the use of hexagonal wrench. Stop turning when it hits the stopper.
(2) Make sure that the stop valve is open completely, push in the handle and rotate
the cap back to its original position.

5.6. Addition of refrigerant (Fig. 5-7)
• Additional charging is not necessary for this unit if the pipe length does not exceed
30 m.
• If the pipe length exceeds 30 m, charge the unit with additional R410A refrigerant
according to the permitted pipe lengths in the chart below.
* When the unit is stopped, charge the unit with the additional refrigerant through
the liquid stop valve after the pipe extensions and indoor unit have been
vacuumized.
When the unit is operating, add refrigerant to the gas check valve using a
safety charger. Do not add liquid refrigerant directly to the check valve.
* After charging the unit with refrigerant, note the added refrigerant amount on
the service label (attached to the unit).
Refer to the “1.5. Using R410A refrigerant air conditioners” for more informa-
tion.
• Be careful when installing multiple units. Connecting to an incorrect indoor unit can
lead to abnormally high pressure and have a serious effect on operation perform-
ance.

When length exceeds 70 m
When the total length of the piping exceeds 70 m, calculate the amount of additional charge based on the following requirements.
Note: If the calculation produces a negative number (i.e. a “minus” charge), of if calculation results in an amount that is less than the “Additional charge amount for 70 m,”
perform the additional charge using the amount shown in “Additional charge amount for 70 m.”
