Calculation of amount of refrigerant
Refrigerant piping system
The calculation of the additional charge should take into account the length of pipe.

If a negative result is obtained from
the calculation, no refrigerant needs

u Special condition 1
In case of the No. of CST TQ/RAC SE/ARTCOOL SF models are over than 50% of the connected
indoor units when the total No. of connected indoor units are over than 50% of the max. connectable
indoor units.
n Additional refrigerant charging amount (kg(lbs)) : Ⓒ

α + B x ß) - (AVG x ß)
• A = Total No. of TQ, SE and SF Indoor units, α = 0.5
• B = Total No. of except TQ, SE and SF Indoor units, ß = 0.3
• AVG = 50% of Max. No. of connectable Indoor units.

1) Installation Information
- Outside unit : 10HP
- Total indoor units : 6 units (TQ 3 units, SE 2 units, BH 1 unit)
2) Information from PDB
- Max. No. of connectable indoor units : 16 units
- Calculated additional refrigerant amount = 2kg (4.41lbs) : Ⓑ
3) Indoor refrigerant charging amount
