* When bending the tubes, use a bending
radius that is at least 4 times the outer
diameter of the tubes.
In addition, take sufficient care to avoid
crushing or damaging the tubes when
bending them.
1-8. Additional Refrigerant Charge
Additional refrigerant charge amount is calculated from the liquid tubing total length as follows.

* Always charge accurately using a scale for weighing.
* If the existing tubing is used, and the amount of on-site additional
refrigerant charge exceeds the value listed below, then change the
size of the tubing to reduce the amount of refrigerant.
Max. additional charge for 1 outdoor unit
: 62 lbs
Max. additional charge for 2 outdoor units : 111 lbs
Max. additional charge for 3 outdoor units : 133 lbs
