2. Selecting the Correct Size Refrigerant Pipes and Using the Twinning Kit
(1) Pipe size
1
Field-supply the pipes to be connected to the kit.
2
Select the correct size pipe referring to the outline diagram of
the unit model in use or the Databook.
3
If the pipe was cut with a pipe cutter, remove the burrs and
eliminate foreign materials before connecting.
* On the low-pressure side, the twinning kit connects to the field-
supplied pipes inside the outdoor unit.
The distributor on the low-pressure side must be placed in the
outdoor unit that has a larger capacity index of the two, regardless
of the relative positions of the outdoor units or their addresses.
If the distributor is placed in the outdoor unit that has a smaller
capacity, refrigerant will not be properly distributed and compressor
failure may result.
(If outdoor units that have the same capacity are used in
combination, the distributor can be placed in either outdoor unit.)
