’Double suction riser required on units with field installed unloader
on circuit B compressor if condensing unit is elevated above
evaporator.
TDouble suction riser required on units with field installed unloader
on circuit B compressor if condensing unit is elevated above
evaporator.
’’Double suction riser required on all unit configurations if condens
ing unit is elevated above evaporator
NOTES-
1
Addition of 2 unloaders to circuit B compressor is not
recommended
2. 38AH094 and 38AH104 piping sizes apply only to factory sup
plied unit configurations They do NOT take into account any field
installed unloaders
3
Piping sizes are based on unit operation above 40 F (4 4 C) satu
rated suction temperature (SST) When operating below 40 F
(4 4 C), refer to Carrier System Design Manual, E20-II piping de
sign program, or ASHRAE Handbook to select proper line sizes
4
Pipe sizes are based on the total linear length shown for each
column, plus a 50% allowance for fittings
5.
Suction and liquid line sizing is based on pressure drop equivalent
to 2 F (1 1 C) at nominal rating conditions. Higher pressure drop
design criteria may allow selection of smaller pipe sizes, but at a
penalty of decreased system capacity and efficiency
6
Double suction risers may be required if condensing unit is el
evated above the evaporator See footnotes and double suction
riser table below
7
Refer to Carrier System Design Manual or to E20-II design
programs for further information on selecting pipe sizes for split
systems
8
All pipe sizes are OD inches Equivalent sizes in millimeters
follow
in.
