• Refrigerant Piping – ASHRAE 15
Step 1: Calculate Total lbs of Refrigerant
Largest Circuit – Not sum of all circuits
Each type of Refrigerant
Step 2: Calculate Space Volume for Dilution
Volume of Smallest occupied space
Include plenums, rooms, corridors if permanently connected
Step 3: Compare to RCL

• Step 3 – Compare lbs/1000 ft3
R-410a - ASHRAE Standard 34-2013: RCL = 26 lbs/1000 ft3
What if Charge exceeds RCL?!…
Reduce refrigerant or dilute by increasing space volume
