OC245-C--1.qxp 1 02.12.19 9:58 AM Page 2 FEATURES 1. REDI-CHARGED REFRIGERANT SYSTEM The industry’s first redi-charged refrigerant system. There is no need to adjust the amount of refrigerant to match the piping length on- site unless lines exceed 100ft. You will see a major reduction in installation time and labor costs. The unique refrigerant circuit and a large accumulator always control the refrigerant to its optimum condition unless the pipe length exceeds 100ft.
OC245-C--1.qxp 2 02.12.19 9:58 AM Page 3 TECHNICAL CHANGE (OC245 REVISED EDITION-A) Change of the service parts. Refer to 13.PARTS LIST for the details. [Change points] BYPASS VALVE and BYPASS VALVE SOLENOID COIL has been changed to externals. It has not been functionally changed. Therefore, the piping connected with the BYPASS VALVE has been changed.
