(*1) If cooling mode is expected to be used when the external temperature is 10°C or below, the maximum
length is 30 m.
(*2) The max/min permissible height between indoor units (α) is found by the difference ( L) between the
maximum length and the minimum length from the fi rst branch.
α=35- L/2 (however, 0
The grouping of tubes that connect the outdoor units to the indoor units is referred to as the "main tubing."
When the maximum tubing length is more than 90 m (equivalent length), upgrade the tube size 1 rank for
both the liquid and gas tubes of the main tubing.
The prescribed performance cannot be guaranteed if the wrong size is selected.

*1 If there are plans for future expansion, choose plumbing sizes according to the total capacity after such
expansion. However, if tube size is stepped up 3 levels, expansion is not possible.
*2 If the maximum tube length exceeds 90 m (or equivalent length), use the fi gure in parentheses ( ) to
size the main tubing, along with those of the liquid and gas tubes.
However, size the gas tube only up to Ø38.1. (A reducer has to be fi tted on-site)

*1 Select a diameter for the main tubing after a branch that is no larger than that of the header.
(In cases where the main tubing after a branch would have to be larger than the header tubing, select
tubing of the same size, and never exceed the header size.)
*2 If the maximum tube length exceeds 90 m (or equivalent length), use the fi gure in parentheses ( ) to size
the main tube after branching, along with those of the liquid and gas tubes.
However, size the gas tube only up to Ø38.1.
*3 "–* *" in the table above means "** kW or less".
