Relationship between A/C units and refrigerant tubing
Install the solenoid valve kit 98 ft. or less from the indoor unit.
In quiet locations such as hospitals, libraries, and hotel rooms, the refrigerant noise may be somewhat noticeable. It is recom-
mended that the solenoid valve kit be installed inside the corridor ceiling, at a location outside the room.
Common solenoid valve kit
Multiple indoor units under group control can utilize a solenoid valve kit in common.
Categories of connected indoor unit capacities are determined by the solenoid valve kit.
Type of solenoid valve kit Total capacity of indoor units (BTU/h)
160 19.100 < Total capacity 54.600
56 7.500 Total capacity 19.000
If the capacity range is exceeded, use 2 solenoid valves connected in parallel.
(2) When adding ball valve for outdoor unit
1. Location: Install the ball valve at the main tube of the distribution joint.
2. Installation requirements
• Be sure to install the ball valve up-grade to prevent the inadvertent flow of oil.
• If the ball valve is installed at the outdoor unit (including extension for outdoor unit), face the service port of
the valve toward the outdoor unit side (see above illustration; dotted line) and allow a distance of over 1.6 ft
from the outdoor unit. If the ball valve is installed between the indoor unit (including extension for indoor unit)
and the main tube, face the ball valve toward the indoor unit side (see above illustration; dotted line).
• Use a field supply ball valve.

Distribution joint
• Install the ball valve at the shortest distance (within 1.3 ft.) from the main tube. If the diameter of the ball valve
is smaller than that of the main tube, use a reducer or the like to reduce the size of the tubing at that location.
