INFORMATION
For a multi outdoor unit system, it is not required to connect all charge ports to a
refrigerant tank.
The refrigerant will be charged with ±22 kg in 1 hour time at an outdoor temperature
of 30°C DB or with ±6 kg at an outdoor temperature of 0°C DB.
If you need to speed up in case of a multiple outdoor system, connect the refrigerant
tanks to each outdoor unit.
NOTICE
▪
The refrigerant charging port is connected to the piping inside the unit. The unit's
internal piping is already factory charged with refrigerant, so be careful when
connecting the charge hose.
▪
After adding the refrigerant, do not forget to close the lid of the refrigerant
charging port. The tightening torque for the lid is 11.5 to 13.9 N•m.
▪
In order to ensure uniform refrigerant distribution, it may take the compressor
±10 minutes to start up after the unit has started operation. This is not a
malfunction.
