1. Model Selecting and Capacity Calculator
If the maximum tubing length (L1) exceeds 90 m (equivalent length), increase the tubing size of the main liquid, gas tubes (LM)
by one rank.
However, the upper limit for the gas tube size is
Increasing the tubing size of the gas tubes can reduce the loss of capacity caused by longer tubing lengths.
Refer to Table 1 to increase the tubing size. However, the maximum allowable tubing length must not be exceeded.
* The amount of additional refrigerant charge is determined from the liquid tube size only.

* When increasing the size of the suction and discharge tubing (LM), multiply by the
correction coefficient from Table 1 and calculate the equivalent length for section LM.
