(3) PUHY-P-Y(S)HA's refrigerant charging calculation
Sample connection (with PFAV-P600VM-E-F)
Amount of refrigerant to be charged
Refrigerant for extended pipes (field piping) is not factory-charged to the outdoor unit. Add an appropriate amount of refrigerant
for each pipe on site.
Record the size of each liquid pipe and the amount of refrigerant that was charged on the outdoor unit for future reference.
Calculating the amount of refrigerant to be charged
The amount of refrigerant to be charged is calculated with the size of the on-site-installed liquid pipes and their length.
Calculate the amount of refrigerant to be charged according to the formula below.
Round up the calculation result to the nearest 0.1kg. (i.e., 16.08 kg = 16.1 kg)

Note1. If the A/C system is designed to use Cooling-mode under Outside temperature 0˚C, H’<=15m.
Note2. As bents cause pressure loss on transportation of refrigerant, fewer bents design is better;
Piping length needs to consider the actual length and equivalent length which bents are counted.
Equivalent piping length (m)=Actual piping length+"M" x Quantity of bent.

Install the pipes from the outdoor unit to the branch
joint with a downward incline.
If the length of pipe between the branch joint and outdoor
unit exceeds 2 m, provide at rap at a distance 2 m or less
from the branch joint.
