Selection procedure VRVIII system based on cooling load


Indoor unit selection

Enter indoor unit capacity tables at given indoor and outdoor temperature. Select the unit that the capacity is the nearest to and higher than the given load.

NOTE

Individual indoor unit capacity is subject to change by the combination. Actual capacity has to be calculated according to the combination by using outdoor units capacity table.

Outdoor unit selection

Allowable combinations are indicated in indoor unit combination total capacity index table. In general, oudoor units can be selected as follows though the location of the unit, zoning and usage of the rooms should be considered. The indoor and outdoor unit combination is determined that the sum of indoor unit capacity index is nearest to and smaller than the capacity index at 100 % combination ratio of each outdoor unit. Up to 16 indoor units can be connected to one outdoor unit. It is recommended to choose a larger outdoor unit if the installation space is large enough. If the combination ratio is higher than 100 %, the indoor unit selection will have to be reviewed by using actual capacity of each indoor unit.

Actual performance data

Use outdoor unit capacity tables Determine the correct table according to the outdoor unit model and combination ratio. Enter the table at given indoor and outdoor temperature and find the outdoor capacity and power input. The individual indoor unit capacity (power input) can be calculated as follows: ICA = OCA x INX TNX ICA: Individual indoor unit capacity (power input) OCA: Outdoor unit capacity (power input) INX: Individual indoor unit capacity index TNX: Total capacity index Then, correct the indoor unit capacity according to the piping length. If the corrected capacity is smaller than the load, the size of indoor unit has to be increased. Repeat the same selection procedure.

The unit size for room A has to be increased from 25 to 32 because the capacity is less than the load. For new combination, actual capacity is calculated as follows. Indoor unit combination total capacity index (25 x 2) +31.25 + (40 x5) = 281.25 (112.5 %) Outdoor unit cooling capacity: 27,610 kcal/h (direct interpolation between 110 % and 120 % in the table) Individual capacity Capacity of FXCQ25M Capacity of FXCQ32M Capacity of FXCQ40M = 30.0 x 25 = 2.7kW 281.25 = 30.0 x 32 = 3.4kW 281.25 = 30.0 x 40 = 4.3kW 281.25

Then, the capacities have to be corrected for actual piping length according to the location of indoor and outdoor units and the distance between them.

These figures illustrate the correction ratio for piping length in capacity for a standard indoor unit system at maximum load (with the thermostat set to maximum) under standard conditions. Moreover, under partial load conditions, there is only a minor deviation from the capacity correction ratio, shown in the above figures. With this outdoor unit, constant evaporating pressure control when cooling and constant condensing pressure control when heating is carried out. Method of calculating the capacity of the outdoor units: The maximum capacity of the system will be either the total capacity of the indoor units or the maximum capacity of the outdoor units as mentioned below, whichever is smaller. Condition: Indoor connection ratio does not exceed 100% Maximum capacity of outdoor units = capacity of outdoor units from capacity table at 100% connection ratio x correction ratio of piping to farest indoor Condition: Indoor connection ratio exceeds 100% Maximum capacity of outdoor units = capacity of outdoor from capacity table at installed connection ratio x correction ratio of piping to farest indoor

Moreover, under partial load conditions there is only a minor deviation from the rate of change in capacity shown in the above figures. 2. With this outdoor unit, evaporating pressure constant control when cooling, and condensing pressure constant control when heating is carried out. 3. Method of calculating A/C (cooling/heating) capacity: The maximum A/C capacity of the system will be either the total A/C capacity of the indoor units obtained from capacity characteristic table or the maximum A/C capacity of outdoor units as mentioned bellow, whichever smaller. Calculating A/C capacity of outdoor units Condition: Indoor unit combination ratio does not exceed 100%. Maximum A/C capacity of outdoor units = A/C capacity of outdoor units obtained from capacity characteristic table at the 100% combination X Capacity change rate due to piping length to the farthest indoor unit Condition: Indoor unit combination ratio exceeds 100%. Maximum A/C capacity of outdoor units = A/C capacity of outdoor units obtained from capacity characteristic table at the combination X Capacity change rate due to piping length to the farthest indoor unit 4. When overall equivalent pipe length is 90m or more, the diameter of the main gas pipes (outdoor unit-branch sections) must be increased. When level difference is 50m or more, the diameter of the main liquid pipe (outdoor unit-branch sections) must be increased. [Diameter of above case]

Please note that when there is an accumulation of snow against the outside surface of the outdoor unit heat exchanger, there will always be a temporary reduction in capacity although this will, of course, vary in degree in accordance with a number of other factors such as the outdoor temperature (CDB), relative humidity (RH) and the amount of frosting which occurs.

Outdoor unit multi connection piping kit and Refrigerant branch kit selection

Refrigerant branch kits can only be used with R410A. When multi outdoor system are installed, be sure to use the special separately sold Outdoor unit multi connection piping kit. (BHFP26P90 136). (For how to select the proper kit, follow the table at right.) Never use BHFP26M90 135, BHFP22M90 135P for M type of this series or T joint (field supplied).

How to select the REFNET joint When using REFNET joint at the first branch counted from the outdoor unit side, choose from the following table in accordance with the outdoor unit capacity type. (Example : REFNET joint A) Outdoor unit capacity type Refrigerant branch kit name KHRQ23M29T 8,10HP type KHRQ23M64T 12~22HP type 24HP type ~ KHRQ23M75T Choose the REFNET joints other than the first branch from the following table in accordance with the total capacity index of all the indoor units connected below the REFNET joint. Refrigerant branch kit name Indoor unit total capacity index 3 pipes 2 pipes x < 200 KHRQ22M20T KHRQ23M20T 200 x < 290 KHRQ22M29T KHRQ23M29T 290 x < 640 KHRQ23M64T KHRQ22M64T 640 x KHRQ23M75T How to select the REFNET header Choose from the following table in accordance with the total capacity index of all the indoor units connected below the REFNET header. 250 type indoor unit can not be connected below the REFNET header. Refrigerant branch kit name Indoor unit total capacity index 3 pipes 2 pipes x < 200 KHRQ22M29H KHRQ23M29H 200 x < 290 KHRQ22M29H 290 x < 640 KHRQ23M64H KHRQ22M64K 640 x KHRQ22M75H KHRQ23M75H How to select the outdoor unit multi connection piping kit (This is required when the system is multi outdoor unit system.) Choose from the following table in accordance with the number of outdoor units.

Air-cooled selection procedure

When the equivalent pipe length between outdor and indoor units is 90m or increased according to the right table. (Never increase suction gas pipe and HP/LP gas pipe.)

(Refer to figure 9) 1.Outdoor unit 2.Main pipes 3.Increase only liquid pipe size 4.First refrigerant branch kit 5.BS unit 6.Indoor unit Note 2. Allowable length after the first refrigerant branch kit to indoor units is 40m or less, however it can be extended up to 90m if all the following conditions are satisfied. (In case of Branch with REFNET joint)

Required Conditions

1. It is necessary to increase the pipe size between the first branch kit and the final branch kit. (Reducers must be procured on site) However, the pipes that are same pipe size with main pipe must not be increased.
