Shut-off Valve unit Installation
When Shut-off Valve unit is installed , the allowable installation position differs depending on the total amount of
refrigerant. The installation position shall be determined according to the following formula.

[5] [To determine the limit on the amount of additional refrigerant]
Determine the smallest room area to calculate the total allowable refrigerant charge limit in the system.
The area of the smallest room being served by the system is decided in the following contents to determine
the maximum allowable total charge of the system.
(1) The area of a room can be determined by projecting walls, doors and partitions onto the floor and calculating
from the enclosed area.
(2) Spaces connected by only false ceilings, ductwork, or similar connections shall not be considered a single
space.
(3) If the partition between 2 rooms on the same floor meets certain requirements then the rooms are considered
as one room and the areas of the rooms may be added up. In this way, it is possible to increase the A
used to calculate the maximum allowed charge.
One of the following 2 requirements shall be met to add up room areas.
1) A room on the same floor, connected by a permanent opening that extends to the floor, and is intended for
people to pass through, and can be considered as a single room.
2) Rooms on the same floor that are connected by openings that meet the following conditions can be considered
as one room.
The opening shall consist of two parts to allow air circulation.
