Necessary Amount of Additional Refrigerant Charge for All Indoor Unit Cooling Capacity
Charge a refrigerant amount calculated in the following formula according to the total amount of indoor unit cooling capacity.
Additional refrigerant amount when cooling capacity is BTU/h = Cooling capacity (BTU/h) × 1.034 × 0.001 + 10.6 (oz)
or
Additional refrigerant amount when cooling capacity is kW = Cooling capacity (kW) × 1000 × 0.1 + 300 (
