*1. Please refer to Fig.3-2-4
*2. Farthest Indoor from BC controller "B+d or C+D+e or C+E+f " can exceed 40m(131ft.) till 60m(196ft.) if no Indoor sized P72, P96 connected.
Details refer to Fig.3-2-2-2
*3. Distance of Indoor sized P72, P96 from BC must be less than 10m(32ft.), if any.
*4. When using 2 Sub BC controllers, max. height "h3" should be considered.

Note1. PQRY systems do not require headers.
Note2. Indoor units sized P72-P96 should be connected to a BC controller using the Y-shaped
CMY-R160-J joint adapter. These indoor units cannot use the same BC controller ports
as other units. (They must use their own individual BC controller port.)
Note3. As bends cause pressure loss on transportation of refrigerant, the fewer bends in the system,
the better it is. Piping length needs to factor in the actual length and equivalent length in which
the bends are counted.
Note4. Indoor units connected to the BC controller sharing one port cannot operate separately in heating
and cooling modes simultaneously; i.e., they must function in either heating or cooling in tandem.
Note5. For sub BC controller CMB-P-NU-GB, the total connectable indoor unit capacity can be 126,000 BTUs or less.
If two sub BC controllers are used, the total indoor unit capacity connected to BOTH sub BC controllers also cannot exceed 126,000 BTUs.
For sub BC controller CMB-P1016NU-HB the total connectable indoor unit capacity can be 126,000 BTUs or less. However, if two sub controllers are used, the total indoor unit capacity
connected to BOTH sub controllers must NOT exceed 168,000BTUs.
Note6. Indoor unit capacities are included in the model name. For example, PEFY-P24NMSU-E has a
capacity of 24,000 BTUs.
Note7. Total "downstream indoor capacity" is the total of all the indoor units connected downstream.
For example, PEFY-P24NMSU-E + PEFY-P12NMSU-E: Total Indoor Unit Capacity = P24 + P12 = P36.
