Tubing
INSTALLATION
Interconnecting Tubing (cont�)
Example: A 3-Ton condensing unit is installed 50’
below the ID unit, requires a 75’ of 1/2” diameter
liquid line, and 4 90° LR elbows�
• Fitting Equivalent Length (ft�) = 4 x �9 = 3�6’
• Total Equivalent Length (ft�) = 75’ + 3�6’ = 78�6’
• Rounded-down value (ft�) = 75’

This application is acceptable because the 50’
vertical rise is less than the maximum rise of 75’ for
this application� The application is also considered
to have a long line set� Reference the long line set
section of the I&O for detail�
Long Line Set Applications
Long line set applications are dened as ap-
plications that require accessories or alternate
construction methods� The following are special
considerations that need to be addressed when
installing a long line set application:
• Additional refrigerant charge
• Fitting losses and maximum equivalent length
considerations
• Refrigerant migration during the o cycle
• Oil return to the compressor
• Capacity losses
• System oil level adjustment
Table 2 is used to determine if the application is
considered to have a long line set� The region of
the chart that is shaded grey is considered to
be a long line set application.
Oil Level Adjustments for
Long Line Set Applications
Additional oil will need to be added for long line set
applications� (Ref� Table 2)� Below is the equation
for the oil level adjustment and the compressor
name plate oil charge for the dierent od units.
Oil to be Added = [(Charge Adjustment + OD
Unit Name Plate Charge (oz.)) x (0.022) – [(0.10)
x (Compressor Name Plate Oil Charge (oz.))]
Example: An application requires 125ft of line set
with a liquid line diameter of 3/8”, Charge Adjust-
ment = 52�4 oz�, Name Plate Charge = 107 oz�,
Name Plate Oil Charge = 25 oz�, Oil to be Added =
((52�4 oz� +107 oz�) x �022) – (�10 x 25 oz�) = 1�0 oz�
