Refrigerant piping work
3 REFRIGERANT PIPING WORK
1 Connect the expansion valve kit to the liquid pipe according to the arrow direction on the expansion valve kit (refer to the item
Installation
method).
2 Regarding refrigerant piping work, refer to
unit.
3 The height difference between the indoor unit and the expansion valve kit is within 2m.
3.1 REFRIGERANT PIPING THICKNESS
Refer to the pipe diameter in the table when connecting to the
indoor unit.
3.2 REFRIGERANT PIPING LENGTH AND ADDITIONAL REFRIGERANT
For using RPK-FSNH3M (Wall Type indoor units without expansion valve) and expansion valve kit, the installation work shall be per-
formed with followings.
1 For RPK-FSNH3M (Wall Type indoor units without expansion valve), the total piping length between expansion valve kit and indoor
unit is restricted as shown in the table below.
2 For SET-FREE/UTOPIA series outdoor units, the appropriate refrigerant quantity is required to be additionally charged depending
on the piping length and the piping size. When the additional refrigerant charge quantity at connected liquid pipe is calculated,
calculate the following additional refrigerant quantity each.
* Quantity for liquid pipe between Multi Kit and expansion valve kit
* Quantity between indoor unit and expansion valve kit
Total additional refrigerant charge quantity =
Additional refrigerant charge quantity between Multi Kit and expansion valve kit +
Additional refrigerant charge quantity between indoor unit and expansion valve kit

(*): When connecting the liquid piping between the expansion valve kit and the indoor unit, reduce the piping size of the expansion valve kit
connection and the indoor unit connection to Ø6.35 with reducers (field-supplied).
