[6-3 Evaluating and Adjusting Refrigerant Charge ]
6-3-5
Calculation of the Amount of Additional Refrigerant
The amount of refrigerant to be added depends on the size and the total length of the liquid piping.
Calculate the amount of refrigerant to be charged according to the formula below.
Round up the calculation result to the nearest 0.1 kg (0.1 oz).
