3.16 Determining Refrigerant Volume
After the preliminary system design is completed, Tables 7, through 15 may be used to determine
the amount of refrigerant required. Perform the calculation below for each Liebert XD system being
configured.
3.16.1 Liebert XDP/Liebert XDC Pumped R-134a Circuit Volume
NOTE
All lengths in Tables 7, 8, 9 and 10, are actual pipe lengths, not equivalent pipe lengths.
NOTE
System refrigerant volume calculations in Tables 7, 8, 9 and 10, are based on a fully loaded
system. Additional charge may be required for lightly loaded systems.
