I Up to three units for 1 branch hole; total capacity: below 30 (but same in cooling/
heating mode)
The size of BC controller's branch piping is for 63 to 140 type indoor units.
Therefore, if you want to connect indoor units other than the above, connect piping
following the procedures below.
*1. For connecting 06 to 18 type indoor units
Connect indoor units using the reducers supplied with BC controllers.
Note:
Use only the flare nuts supplied with the BC controller.
*2. To connect a unit with a capacity of higher than 31.
After combining two branches using an optionally available piping kit (CMY-R160-
J), connect indoor units.
*3. Connection of plural indoor units with one connection (or joint pipe)
Total capacity of connectable indoor units: Less than 30 (Less than 96 with
joint pipe)
Number of connectable indoor units: Maximum 3 Sets
Twinning pipe: Use the twinning pipe for CITY MULTI Y Series (CMY-Y102S-
G2)
Selection of refrigerant piping
Select the size according to the total capacity of indoor units to be installed
downstream.

4.2. Refrigerant piping work

After connecting the refrigerant pipes of all indoor and outdoor units with the out-
door units' stop valves remained fully closed, evacuate vacuum from the outdoor
units' stop valve service ports.
After completing the above, open the outdoor units' stop valves. This connects the
refrigerant circuit (between outdoor and BC controller) completely.
How to handle stop valves is described on each outdoor unit.
Notes:
Before tightening the flare nut, apply refrigerating machine oil lightly over
the valve flare surface and its seating surface.
Use two wrenches for pipe connection.
After pipe connection, be sure to check that there is no gas leakage,
using a leak detector or soap-and-water solution.
Before brazing the refrigerant piping, always wrap the piping on the main
body, and the thermal insulation piping, with damp cloths to prevent heat
shrinkage and burning the thermal insulation tubing. Take care to ensure
that the flame does not come into contact with the main body itself.
Do not use leak-detection additives.
Warning:
Do not mix anything other than the specified refrigerant (R410A) into the
refrigerating cycle when installing or moving. Mixing air may cause the re-
frigerating cycle to reach abnormally high temperature, resulting in burst
pipes.
Caution:
Cut the tip of the indoor unit piping, remove the gas, and then remove the
brazed cap.
