2. The standards for minimum room volume are as fol-
lows.
(1) No partition (shaded portion)
(2) When there is an effective opening with the adjacent
room for ventilation of leaking refrigerant gas (open-
ing without a door, or an opening 0.15% or larger
than the respective floor spaces at the top or bottom
of the door).

than the respective floor spaces at the top or bottom
of the door).
(3) If an indoor unit is installed in each partitioned room
and the refrigerant tubing is interconnected, the
smallest room of course becomes the object. But
when mechanical ventilation is installed interlocked
with a gas leakage detector in the smallest room
where the density limit is exceeded, the volume of the
next smallest room becomes the object.

amount of refrigerant is roughly as follows: (When the

Check of Density Limit
The room in which the air conditioner is to be
installed requires a design that in the event of refrig-
erant gas leaking out, its density will not exceed a set
limit.
The refrigerant (R410A), which is used in the air con-
ditioner, is safe, without the toxicity or combustibility of
ammonia, and is not restricted by laws imposed to protect
the ozone layer. However, since it contains more than air,
it poses the risk of suffocation if its density should rise
excessively. Suffocation from leakage of refrigerant is
almost non-existent. With the recent increase in the num-
ber of high density buildings, however, the installation of
multi air conditioner systems is on the increase because of
the need for effective use of floor space, individual control,
energy conservation by curtailing heat and carrying power,
etc.
Most importantly, the multi air conditioner system is able
to replenish a large amount of refrigerant compared to
conventional individual air conditioners. If a single unit
of the multi air conditioner system is to be installed in a
small room, select a suitable model and installation pro-
cedure so that if the refrigerant accidentally leaks out,
its density does not reach the limit (and in the event of
an emergency, measures can be made before injury can
occur).
In a room where the density may exceed the limit, create
an opening with adjacent rooms, or install mechanical
ventilation combined with a gas leak detection device.
The density is as given below.
