Note:
• Refrigerant line sizes may require larger lines
for extended line lengths. Refer to application
data part number 247077.
• The adapter fitting must be field installed for
any refrigeration piping sizes not shown in the
table.
• Refer to the Technical Guide for the outdoor unit
for the proper refrigeration piping size.

Limitations

Install the coil in accordance with all national and local
safety codes. See Table 4.

Using a coil metering device

You must install a piston or TXV (flex coil models) in the
field, unless you are using a coil with a factory installed
TXV or a coil equipped with an electronic expansion valve
(EEV). See Using a coil equipped with an EEV: XAF and XAH
coils. Refer to the Technical Guide for outdoor units for
information on the piston or TXV required for the indoor
coil. It is best practice to install the piston or TXV kit before
installing the coil and brazing the refrigeration piping.
Note: Do not install the TXV sensing bulb until you
have completed the brazing and the piping has
cooled.
For TXV installation, refer to the Installation Manual
provided with the TXV kit and see
For piston installation, see
and the Schrader valve core are supplied with the outdoor
unit if applicable. Some outdoor sections require a TXV. If
using a piston instead of a TXV, install the Schrader valve
core in the suction line equalizer connection port and cap
the Schrader valve core with the plastic cap supplied. Do
not install the Schrader valve core if a TXV is installed,
because the TXV equalizer line attaches to the equalizer
connection port or suction line port.
CAUTION
COIL UNDER PRESSURE
Verify that pressure has been released by depressing
Schrader valve core shown in Figure 1 and Figure
2. The coil requires a metering device to be added.
