Refrigerant piping EXAMPLE OF SIZING OF REFRIGERANT PIPING The example below illustrates the piping selection procedure for a system consisting of three outdoor units (32HP + 22HP + 12HP) and 17 indoor units. The total equivalent length of the liquid piping of the system is greater than 90m; the length of the piping between the furthest indoor unit and the first internal branch joint is less than 40m and the length of each internal auxiliary pipe (from each indoor unit to its closest branch joint) is less than 10m .
Page 31
Refrigerant piping CONNECTION BETWEEN OUTDOOR UNITS The pipes connecting the outdoor units must be horizontal and must not be placed higher than the refrigerant outlets. If necessary, the piping can be moved vertically below the Pipes from multiple outdoor units must be installed so outlets to avoid obstacles.
Page 32
Refrigerant piping USE OF BRANCH JOINTS USE OF MANIFOLDS To install the refrigeration lines it is possible to use 4 or 8 branch manifolds. For more information, refer to the – The branch joints must be installed at a maximum relevant manual.

Refrigerant piping Thermal insulation of the pipes Make sure that the pipe connections are completely isolated from the indoor unit. Insulate the refrigerant and gas piping separately with insulating polyethylene foam materials. Incorrect or missing insulation causes condensation and subsequent dripping. WARNING Pipes laid in ceilings are particularly sensitive to condensation.
