5: If any of the tubing length exceeds 30 m, increase the size of the tubes (liquid tube, suction tube and discharge tube) between the
distribution tube and solenoid valve kit by 1 rank and also increase the size of the tubes (liquid tube and gas tube) between the solenoid
valve kit and indoor unit by 1 rank.
* However, in the case of the Type 56 solenoid valve kit, it is not necessary to increase the tubes (liquid tube, suction tube and discharge
tube) between the distribution tube and solenoid valve kit by 1 rank.

*1: The outdoor unit connection tubing (LO)
103.6
is determined by the total capacity of the
outdoor units connected to the tube ends.
The tubing size is selected based on the
table of main tube sizes after the branch.
*2: If the total capacity of the indoor units
connected to the tube ends is different
from the total capacity of the outdoor
units, then the main tube size is selected
based on the total capacity of the outdoor
units. (For LA, LB, and LF in particular)
