• Refrigerant of 3kg equivalent to 50-m total
extended piping length (model 125) or 2.4kg
equivalent to 40-m(model 71) is already
included when the outdoor unit is shipped.
Thus, if the total extended piping length is
50m or less (model 125) or 40m or less
(model71), there is no need to charge with
additional refrigerant.
• If the total extended piping length exceeds
50m (model 125) or 40m (model 71),
calculate the required additional refrigerant
charge using the procedure shown on the
right.
• If the calculated additional refrigerant charge
is a negative amount, do not charge with any
refrigerant.

The total length of each liquid line is as follows
{
9.52 : A + a = 30 + 15 = 45m
{
6.35 : b + c + d = 10 + 10 + 20 = 40m
