Code is determined according to the unit size. For details, refer to pages 7-9.
*2
When using Y-shape branching joint for 1st branching, select according to capacity code of outdoor unit.
*3
For one line after header branching, indoor units with a maximum of 6.0 capacity code in total can be connected.
*4 If the pipe size is Ø3/4” or more, use a hard type or half hard type for material of the pipe.
*5
The maximum equivalent length of the main pipe should be 70 m or shorter.
