LG Multi F outdoor units ship from the factory with a charge of R410A refrigerant. A
trim charge will need to be added to take into account additional piping length.
To determine the additional refrigerant that is needed, apply the formula below,
and record the results. If the total additional refrigerant charge value is a negative
number, then an additional trim charge does not need to be added to the system.
Multi F Outdoor Unit Additional Refrigerant Charge Formula
Additional charge (lbs.) = (Installed Length of Branch [A] – Chargeless Pipe Length [L]) x a
- CF (Correction Factor) x 5.29
Note:
• Number of installed length of branches depends on the specifications of the outdoor unit model.
• CF = Maximum number of connectible indoor units – Total number of connected indoor units.
