4.6. Additional refrigerant charge
Refrigerant of 3 kg [6.6 lbs] equivalent to 50 m [165 ft] total extended piping length is
already included when the outdoor unit is shipped. Thus, if the total extended piping
length is 50 m [165 ft] or less, there is no need to charge with additional refrigerant.
Calculation of Additional Refrigerant Charge
• If the total extended piping length exceeds 50 m [165 ft], calculate the required
additional refrigerant charge using the procedure shown below.
• If the calculated additional refrigerant charge is a negative amount, do not charge
with any refrigerant.

6. Electrical work

6.1. Caution
1 Follow ordinance of your governmental organization for technical standard related
to electrical equipment, wiring regulations and guidance of each electric power
company.
2 Wiring for control (hereinafter referred to as transmission line) shall be (5 cm [2
inch] or more) apart from power source wiring so that it is not influenced by electric
noise from power source wiring. (Do not insert transmission line and power source
wire in the same conduit.)
3 Be sure to provide designated grounding work to outdoor unit.
4 Give some allowance to wiring for electrical part box of indoor and outdoor units,
because the box is sometimes removed at the time of service work.
5 Never connect the main power source to terminal block of transmission line. If
connected, electrical parts will be burnt out.
6 Use 2-core shield cable for transmission line. If transmission lines of different
systems are wired with the same multiplecore cable, the resultant poor transmit-
ting and receiving will cause erroneous operations.

1 Remove the cap and turn the valve rod counterclockwise as far as it will go with
the use of a 4 mm [5/32 inch] hexagonal wrench. Stop turning when it hits the
stopper.
(ø6.35 [1/4 inch]: Approximately 4.5 revolutions) (ø9.52 [3/8 inch]: Approximately
10 revolutions)
2 Make sure that the stop valve is open completely, push in the handle and rotate
the cap back to its original position.

Refrigerant pipes are protectively wrapped
• The pipes can be protectively wrapped up to a diameter of ø90 mm [ø3-35/64 inch]
before or after connecting the pipes. Cut out the knockout in the pipe cover following
the groove and wrap the pipes.
Pipe inlet gap
• Use putty or sealant to seal the pipe inlet around the pipes so that no gaps re-
main.
(If the gaps are not closed, noise may be emitted or water and dust will enter the
unit and breakdown may result.)
Precautions when using the charge valve (Fig.4-8)
Do not tighten the service port too much when installing it, otherwise, the valve core
could be deformed and become loose, causing a gas leak.
After positioning section B in the desired direction, turn section A only and tighten
it.
Do not further tighten sections A and B together after tightening section A.
<Example>
(Please see the lower half of Fig. 4-1.)
Outdoor model : P48
Indoor
1 : P24 A : ø9.52 [3/8"] 30 m [98 ft]
2 : P15
3 : P08
4 : P06
The total length of each liquid line is as follows
ø9.52 [3/8"] : A + a = 30 m + 15 m = 45 m [98 ft + 49 ft = 147 ft]
ø6.35 [1/4"] : b + c + d = 10 m + 10 m + 20 m = 40 m [33 ft + 33 ft + 66 ft = 132 ft]
Therefore,
<Calculation example>
Additional
refrigerant charge = 45 m × 0.06 kg + 40 m × 0.024 kg – 3.0 kg = 0.7 kg (rounded up)
= [147 ft × 0.041 lbs + 132 ft × 0.016 lbs – 6.6 lbs = 1.54 lbs]
3.0 kg
7 Only the transmission line specified should be connected to the terminal block
for outdoor unit transmission.
(Transmission line to be connected with indoor unit : Terminal block TB3 for
transmission line, Other : Terminal block TB7 for centralized control)
Erroneous connection does not allow the system to operate.
8 In case to connect with the upper class controller or to conduct group operation in
different refrigerant systems, the control line for transmission is required between
the outdoor units each other.
Connect this control line between the terminal blocks for centralized control. (2-
wire line with no polarity)
When conducting group operation in different refrigerant systems without connect-
ing to the upper class controller, replace the insertion of the short circuit connector
from CN41 of one outdoor unit to CN40.
9 Group is set by operating the remote controller.
