5 REFRIGERANT AND WATER PIPING
5.1 R32 REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT
5.1.1 General notes R32 refrigerant
This appliance is filled with R32, an odourless flammable refrigerant gas with low burning velocity (A2L class pursuant to ISO 817). If
the refrigerant is leaked, there is a possibility of ignition if it enters in contact with an external ignition source.
Make sure that unit installation and refrigerant piping installation comply with applicable legislation in each country. Also, in Europe,
EN378 must be complied, as it is the applicable standard.
5.1.2 Refrigerant piping
Refrigerant piping length between indoor unit and outdoor unit
The unit installation and refrigerant piping should comply with the relevant local and national regulations for the designed refrigerant.
Due to R32 refrigerant and depending on final refrigerant charge amount, a minimum floor area for installation must be considered.
•
If total refrigerant charge amount <1.84kg, there are no additional minimum floor area requirements.
•
If total refrigerant charge amount ≥1.84kg, there are additional minimum floor area requirements to be checked.
New YUTAKI R32 range (2~3HP) due to low refrigerant charge amount and due to low additional charge needed, unit installation
can achieve up to 30m (2/2.5HP) / 27m (3HP) without any minimum floor area requirement.
