(*1) : If the system configure only the limited indoor unit type and limited number of connection indoor unit, total indoor capacity code up to 150%
of the outdoor capacity code is available when the height difference between the indoor units is 49 ft (15m) or less.
When total indoor capacity code exceeds 135% of outdoor unit capacity code, turn on SW09/Bit2 on I/F P.C. board of outdoor header unit.
* Permanent operation and heating operation below 80 % is not recommended.
For more information, please refer to the engineering data book.

Cautions for installation
• Set the outdoor unit
fi
rst connected to the branching pipe to the indoor units as the header unit.
• Install the outdoor units in order of their capacity codes : (A) header unit
≥
(B)
≥
(C)
• Y-shaped branching joint must be installed horizontally.
• When piping to outdoor units using outdoor unit connection piping kits, intersect the pipes to the outdoor unit
and those to indoor units at a right angle as shown in

(*1) : Total refrigerant amount in the system is restricted according to capacity type. Refer to the table below.
(*2) : The total piping length in one FS unit in case of branching to 4 : 394 ft (p + q + r + L10 + s + t), in case of branching to 6 : 590 ft.
(*3) : Total length of pipe should be less than 164 ft (L10 + s + t) per branch.
(*4) : If the height difference (H2) between indoor units exceeds 9.8 ft, set 164 ft or less.
(*5) : Extension up to 295 ft is possible, please contact manufacturers representative for review.
(*6) : Extension up to 98 ft is possible, please contact manufacturers representative for review.
(*7) : Ensure that the header unit is installed below all connected follower outdoor unit(s).
Possible product failure may occur if header unit is installed above any follower unit(s).
