To Select The Piping Size; To Select Refrigerant Branch Kits - Daikin RXYSQ6T8VB Installer And User Manual

5.3.3

To select the piping size

Determine the proper size referring to following tables and reference
figure (only for indication).
INFORMATION
▪ Combination of VRV DX and RA DX indoor units is not
allowed.
▪ Combination of RA DX and AHU indoor units is not
allowed.
▪ Combination of RA DX and aircurtain indoor units is not
allowed.
INFORMATION
If you install RA DX indoor units, you have to configure
field setting [2‑38] (= type of installed indoor units). See
"7.2.8 Mode 2: Field settings" on

In case the required pipe sizes (inch sizes) are not available, it is
also allowed to use other diameters (mm sizes), taken the following
into account:
▪ Select the pipe size nearest to the required size.
▪ Use the suitable adapters for the change-over from inch to mm
pipes (field supply).
▪ The additional refrigerant calculation has to be adjusted as
mentioned in "6.7.3 To determine the additional refrigerant
amount" on page 23.
A: Piping between outdoor unit and (first)
refrigerant branch kit
When the equivalent pipe length between outdoor and indoor units is
90 m or more, the size of the main gas pipe must be increased (size-
up). If the recommended gas pipe (size-up) is not available, you
must use the standard size (which might result in a small capacity
decrease).

To select refrigerant branch kits

For piping example, refer to "5.3.3 To select the piping size" on
page 13.
Refnet joint at first branch (counting from outdoor unit)
When using refnet joints at the first branch counted from the outdoor
unit side, choose from the following table in accordance with the
capacity of the outdoor unit. Example: Refnet joint A→B‑1.
