Outdoor Unit CU-3KS19NBU
Insulation of Refrigerant Tubing
Because capillary tubing is used in the outdoor unit, both the
wide and narrow tubes of this air conditioner become cold. To
prevent heat loss and wet floors due to dripping of
condensation, both tubes must be well insulated with a 
proper insulation material. The thickness of the insulation
should be a min.5/16"(8 mm).
After a tube has been insulated,
never try to bend it into a narrow
curve because it can cause the tube
to break or crack.

(1) Low pressure performance chart
(2) Operating current performance chart
(3) Indoor discharge air performance chart
•  This performance chart shows operation of a single wall-mounted indoor unit. The performance chart will vary depending on 
  the indoor unit type.
•  Check each performance value in test-run mode. Electrical performance values represent a combined indoor/outdoor value.
  (In this case, be sure to stop all the indoor units where performance is not being checked.)
•  The performance is for a tubing length of 24.6t (7.5m). If the tubing length is different, the performance chart will vary.
