  • Page 10: Check Of Density Limit

    Check of Density Limit Check the amount of refrigerant in the system and floor space of the room according to the legislation on refrigerant drainage. If there is no applicable legislation, follow the standards described below. The refrigerant (R32), which is used in the air conditioner, is a flammable refrigerant. So the requirements for the maximum refrigerant charge amount [m ] used in the appliance are determined according to installation space of the appliance.
