PC coils cannot be used in downflow or horizontal applications.  FC coils cannot be sued in horizontal applications. 
 
Procedures: 
1. 
Units are shipped from the factory without refrigerant.  Remove nitrogen holding charge.  
2. 
Verify the TXV or orifice for the specific matched indoor unit in the system using the above table. 
3. 
System charge weights shown are for the outdoor unit, matched indoor unit, and 15 feet of refrigerant tubing. 
4. 
Add or subtract charge for the amount of interconnecting line tubing less than or greater than 15 feet at the rate specified in Physical and 
Electrical Data Table. 
5. 
Weigh in the Total System Charge for the specific matched indoor unit and lineset length. 
6. 
Permanently mark the unit nameplate with the Total System Charge.  Total System Charge = Base Charge (as shipped) + charge adder for 
matched indoor unit + charge adder for lineset. 
 
Important: 
Models 18-48 require Hard Start Kits for TXV matches.  Refer to the Hard Start Kit Accessory Installation Manual for the Hard Start Kit part number
