Calculation of amount of refrigerant
The calculation of the additional charge should take into account the length of pipe.

Product Charge(kg)
B
Additional charge (kg)

Total liquid pipe (m): Ø19.05mm

Total liquid pipe (m): Ø15.88mm

Total liquid pipe (m): Ø12.7mm

(Correction Factor)
Total amount(kg)
CAUTION
If a negative result is obtained from
the calculation, no refrigerant needs
to be added.
u Special condition
In case of the No. of CST TQ/RAC SE/ARTCOOL SF models are over than 50% of the connected
indoor units when the total No. of connected indoor units are over than 50% of the max. connectable
indoor units.

Total amount(kg)
n Additional refrigerant charging amount (kg) : Ⓒ
α
= (A x
+ B x ß) - (AVG x ß)
• A = Total No. of TQ,SE and SF Indoor units,
• B = Total No. of except TQ,SE and SF Indoor units,
• AVG = 50% of Max. No. of connectable Indoor units.
Example)
1) Installation Information
- Outside unit : 6HP
- Total indoor units : 6 units (TQ 3 units, SE 2 units, BH 1 unit)
2) Information from PDB
- Max. No. of connectable indoor units : 10 units
- Calculated additional refrigerant amount = 2 kg : Ⓑ
3) Indoor refrigerant charging amount
= (5 units x 0.5+1 unit x 0.3) - (5 units x 0.3) = 1.3 kg : Ⓒ
▶ Revised the total additional charging amount = Ⓑ + Ⓒ = 2 kg +1.3 kg
