The piping system can be entered manually into LATS from a one-line pipe diagram. To ensure that the refrigerant piping design meets LG’s quality standards, a LATS refrigerant piping design must be provided with every Multi V Water Mini order.

Tube wall thickness should meet local code requirements and be approved for an operating pressure of 551 psi. If local code does not spec- ify wall thickness, LG suggests using tube thickness per table below. When bending tubing, try to keep the number of bends to a minimum, and use the largest radii possible to reduce the equivalent length of installed pipe;...

No Substitutions Only LG supplied Y-branch and Header fittings (as referenced below; sold separately) can be used to join one pipe segment to two or more segments. Third-party or field-fabricated Tee’s, Y-fittings, Headers, or other branch fittings are not qualified for use with LG Multi V Water Mini systems.

Field-provided Isolation Ball Valves LG allows the installation of field-supplied ball valves with Schrader ports at each indoor unit. Full-port isolation ball valves with Schrader ports (positioned between valve and indoor unit) rated for use with R410A refrigerant should be used on both the liquid and vapor lines.

Applying Insulation to Y-Branch and Header Fittings Check the fit of the insulation jacket provided with the LG Y-branch and Header kits after all pipes are brazed to fittings. Mark all pipes at the point where the insulation jacket ends. Remove the jacket. Install field-supplied insulation on the pipe segments first, and then install the LG provided insulation plugs on the ends of all unused Header ports.

• NEVER splice, cut, or extend cable length with field provided cable. If the length needs to be extended, the LG Extension Kit (sold separately) must be used. A maximum of four (4) kits (up to 165 feet) can be used.
Can be assigned at will or for example, can follow the room layout on each floor. For each LG Central Controller product provided on the project, devise a central control address schedule and assign a central control ad- dress to each indoor unit(s) Hydro Kit(s), and ERV(s) units. Record this central control address for each component in the column provided on the Pre-commissioning Device Configuration Worksheet.
Insulation was not compressed at clamps and hangers. LG Y-branch fittings or headers were used as per LATS Multi V report. (Optional) Full port ball valves for all indoor units. (Schrader between the valve body and the indoor units.)

No “Star” or multiple parallel circuits. No cable splices or wire caps were used to connect communications cables. LG-supplied cable was used between each indoor unit and its zone controller. No cables were spliced and no wire caps are present.
