Additional refrigerant charge
Refrigerant for the extended piping is not included in the
outdoor unit when the unit is shipped from the factory.
Therefore, charge each refrigerant piping system with
additional refrigerant at the installation site. In addition, in
order to carry out service, enter the size and length of each
liquid pipe and additional refrigerant charge amounts in
the spaces provided on the "Refrigerant amount" plate on
the outdoor unit.
Calculation of additional refrigerant charge
• Calculate the additional charge using the liquid pipe size
and length of the extended piping and total capacity of
connected indoor units.
• Calculate the additional refrigerant charge using the
procedure shown to the right, and charge with the
additional refrigerant.
• For amounts less than 0.2 lb [0.1 kg], round up the
calculated additional refrigerant charge.
(For example, if the calculated charge is 13.2 lb [6.01 kg],
round up the charge to 13.4 lb [6.1 kg].)

Outdoor model : P60
Indoor 1 : P24 (24 kBtu/h)
2 : P15 (15 kBtu/h)
3 : P08 (8 kBtu/h)
4 : P06 (6 kBtu/h)
The total length of each liquid line is as follows:
[3/8"] ø9.52 : A + B + C + a = 20 + 5 + 5 + 15 = 147 ft [45 m]
[1/4"] ø6.35 : b + c + d = 10 + 10 + 20 = 132 ft [40 m]
The total capacity of connected indoor unit is as follows:
24 + 15 + 08 + 06 = 53
<Calculation example>
