* When bending the tubes, use a bending
radius that is at least 4 times the outer
diameter of the tubes.
In addition, take sufficient care to avoid
crushing or damaging the tubes when
bending them.
1-8. Additional Refrigerant Charge
Additional refrigerant charge amount is calculated from the liquid tubing total length as follows.
Table 1-15 Amount of Refrigerant Charge Per Meter, According to Liquid Tubing Size
Liquid tubing size Amount of refrigerant
(in. (mm)) charge (oz/ft.)
ш1/4" (ш6.35) 0.279
ш3/8" (ш9.52) 0.602
ш1/2" (ш12.7) 1.38
ш5/8" (ш15.88) 1.99
ш3/4" (ш19.05) 2.78
ш7/8" (ш22.22) 3.93
Required amount of charge = (Amount of refrigerant charge per
meter of each size of liquid tube × its tube length) + (...) + (...)
* Always charge accurately using a scale for weighing.
* If the existing tubing is used, and the amount of on-site additional
refrigerant charge exceeds the value listed below, then change the
size of the tubing to reduce the amount of refrigerant.
Max. additional charge for 1 outdoor unit : 62 lbs
Max. additional charge for 2 outdoor units : 111 lbs
Max. additional charge for 3 outdoor units : 133 lbs
Unit: ft.
