(3) Selecting Piping Size
●
Select the size for the high/low pressure gas pipe,
low pressure gas pipe and liquid pipe according
to Table 5.1. The size depends on the indoor unit
total capacity connected downstream of the
Switch Box.
●
As for the BRANCH PIPE branch or header branch,
refer to the Technical Catalog for the Outdoor Unit.
● Perform the piping connection work for the Switch
Box as shown below.

73.0 ≤ Q ≤ 85.0
NOTE:
Refer to "Position of Piping Connection" for the details of the piping connection for the
Switch Box. Use field-supplied reducer in case the field piping and Switch Box piping
connection does not match.
