Additional Refrigerant Charge; Calculation Of Additional Refrigerant Charge - Mitsubishi Electric City Multi PURY-P72TKMU-U Manuel D'installation

10. Additional refrigerant charge

At the time of shipping, the outdoor unit is charged with refrigerant.
This charge does not include the amount needed for extended piping and
additional charging of each refrigerant line will be required on-site. In order that
future servicing may be properly provided, always keep a record of the size and
length of each refrigerant line and the amount of additional charge by writing it in
the space provided on the outdoor unit.

10.1. Calculation of additional refrigerant
charge
• Calculate the amount of additional charge based on the length of the piping
extension and the size of the refrigerant line.
• Use the table below as a guide for calculating the amount of additional
charging and then charge the system accordingly.
• If the calculation results in a fraction of less than 0.1 kg [4 oz], round up
to the next 0.1 kg [4 oz]. For example, if the result of the calculation was
27.73 kg [979 oz], round the result up to 27.8 kg [983 oz].
