Height difference
In case the required pipe sizes (inch sizes) are not available, it is
also allowed to use other diameters (mm sizes), taken the following
into account:
▪ Select the pipe size nearest to the required size.
▪ Use the suitable adapters for the change-over from inch to mm
pipes (field supply).
▪ Calculate the amount of refrigerant as described in
determine the refrigerant amount"

To select refrigerant branch kits
Always use K65 T-joints with a suitable design pressure for
refrigerant branching.
13.1.6
To select expansion valves for
refrigeration
The system controls liquid temperature and liquid pressure. Select
the expansion valves as indicated according to nominal conditions
and design pressure.
Nominal conditions
The following nominal conditions are valid for the liquid piping at the
outlet of the outdoor unit. They are based on an ambient
temperature of 32°C and an evaporate temperature of –10°C or –
35°C.
