Refrigerant Planning Values
Planning for the refrigerant requirements of the completed system is the total of the charges from 
Indoor Unit, Condenser (including Liebert Lee-Temp
 receiver, if used) and the interconnecting 
piping. Tables 1011 and  12 provide the approximate charge required for the condensers and the 
interconnecting piping. Consult indoor unit manuals for indoor unit charge requirements.
These values can be used for obtaining adequate refrigerant for the system, but should not be used for 
final charging.
NOTE
Due to the much smaller coil volume, the performance, especially subcooling, of a Liebert MC 
condenser is quite sensitive to the amount of refrigerant charge. Ensure that an accurate 
amount of refrigerant charge is added.
