Additional correction due to Defrost operation
Defrost operation protects the outdoor unit coil against freezing:

• Happens in heating mode
• Performs once max every 2 hours
• Duration: between 4 and 8 min
• During defrost: outdoor/indoor units’ fans are stopped
• No heating is delivered during defrost
• Limited cooling is delivered (heat recovery models)
• Capacity tables do not take account of this capacity reduction
• The heating capacity should be ammended by a correction factor:

What happens when the overall equivalent length

from the condensing unit to any indoor unit exceeds 90 m ?
Increase diameter of the Liquid

The same requirements are valid For half hard pipes the maximum allowed tensile stress is 61N/mm²
for this reason, the 0.2% proof strength of the half hard pipe shall be
for refnet headers and joints minimum 61N/mm²
The bending radius is more or equal to 3 times the diameter of the pipe
The maximum working pressure for R-410A VRV P-series is 38 bar
