4.5. SYSTEM LAYOUT
If there are multiple outdoor units to be connected, make sure to install the master unit near the indoor unit.
If 3 outdoor units are to be connected, install them in descending order, starting with the one with the largest
capacity closest to the indoor unit.
A) In case of one outdoor unit connected
• From outdoor unit to the farthest indoor unit:
e+f+g+i+k+m < = 150 m (actual pipe length),
e+o+p+r+t < = 150 m (actual pipe length)
• From the first separation tube to the farthest indoor unit:
o+p+r+t < = 60 m (actual pipe length)
• Difference in height between outdoor units and indoor units (H1)
50 m: For the indoor unit stated below
40 m: For the outdoor unit stated below
• Difference in height between indoor units and indoor units
H2 < = 15 m, H3 < = 15 m
• e+f+g+h+i+j+k+l+m+n+o+p+q+r+s+t+u < = 300 m (total pipe length)
NOTE : If the outdoor temperature during cooling operation
is expected to be –5 °C or less, do not install the out-
door unit lower than the indoor unit.
B) In case of two outdoor unit connected
• From outdoor unit to the farthest indoor unit:
a+e+f+g+i+k+m < = 150 m (actual pipe length)
a+e+o+p+r+t < = 150 m (actual pipe length)
• Difference in height between outdoor units and indoor units (H1)
50 m: For the indoor unit stated below
40 m: For the outdoor unit stated below
• From the first separation tube to the farthest indoor unit:
o+p+r+t < = 60 m (actual pipe length)
• Difference in height between indoor units and indoor units (H2, H3)
H2 < = 15 m, H3 < = 15 m
• Difference in height between outdoor unit and outdoor units: (H4)
H4 < = 0.5 m
• From outdoor unit to outdoor unit branch kit
a, d < = 3 m
• a+d+e+f+g+h+i+j+k+l+m+n+o+p+q+r+s+t+u < = 300 m (total pipe
length)
• Outdoor capacity

C) In case of three outdoor unit connected
• From outdoor unit to the farthest indoor unit:
a+e+f+g+i+k+m < = 150 m (actual pipe length)
a+e+o+p+r+t < = 150 m (actual pipe length)
• From the first separation tube to the farthest indoor unit:
o+p+r+t < = 60 m (actual pipe length)
• Difference in height between outdoor units and indoor units (H1)
50 m: For the indoor unit stated below
40 m: For the outdoor unit stated below
• Difference in height between indoor units and indoor units (H2, H3)
H2 < = 15 m, H3 < = 15 m
• Difference in height between outdoor unit and outdoor units: (H4)
H4 < = 0.5 m
• From outdoor unit to outdoor unit branch kit
a, b, c < = 3 m
• Piping length between the farthest outdoor unit to the first out-
door unit branch kit
a, b, c < = 3 m, c+d, b+d < = 12 m
• a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h+i+j+k+l+m+n+o+p+q+r+s+t+u < = 300 m (to-
tal pipe length)
