Refrigerant Charge
The outdoor units can be matched with multiple indoor units, and
thus a different amount of charge might be required when matched
with the 40MKCB**F or 40MKQB**F units. Charge to

NOTE::The above additional charge is required amount for
line lengths up to 25 ft (7.6 m). For line lengths exceeding 25 ft
(7.6 m), additional charge will be required. Refer to the
Residential Long Line Guide.
Metering Device
The 40MKC(Q)*F unit uses a TXV. The outdoor unit uses a type
B accurator. The cooling metering device is installed with the
indoor unit, while the heating metering device is installed with the
outdoor unit. One metering device is required for the cooling only
system and two are required for the heat pump systems. Refer to
Table 13 for a breakdown of each unit’s metering devices.

POWER AND CONNECTING CABLES --
FIELD SUPPLIED
Recommended Connection Method for Power and
Communication Wiring (To minimize
communication wiring interference)
Power Wiring:
The main power is supplied to both the indoor and the outdoor units.
The field supplied connecting cable consists of three (3) wires. Two
wires are high voltage AC power and one is a ground wire.
Consult your local building codes and the NEC (National Electrical
Code) or CEC (Canadian Electrical Code) for special requirements.
All wires must be sized per NEC or CEC and local codes. Use
Electrical Data table MCA (minimum circuit amps) and MOCP
(maximum over current protection) to correctly size the wires and the
disconnect fuse or breakers respectively.
Per caution note, only copper conductors with a minimum 300 volt
rating and 2/64--inch thick insulation must be used.
Communication Wiring:
A separate shielded copper conductor only with a minimum 300 volt
rating and 2/64 inch thick insulation must be used as the
communication wire from the outdoor unit to the indoor unit. To
minimize voltage drop of the communication wire, use the wire size
and maximum lengths shown in table 14.
Table 14 – Maximum Wire Lengths
Wire Size Length ft. (m)
18AWG 50 ft. (15 m)
16AWG 50 ft. (15 m) to 100 ft. (30 m)
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow the following caution may result in
equipment damage or improper operation.
Wires should be sized based on NEC and local codes.
Use copper conductors only with a minimum 300 volt
rating and 2/64 inch thick insulation.
CAUTION
!
USER INTERFACE
The indoor unit is supplied with a wireless remote control to
operate the unit (an Owner’s Manual is supplied with the unit). The
following accessories are available.
SWall mounted control

ACCESSORIES
An extensive list of field installed accessories is available for both
indoor and outdoor units. Identify what accessories, if any, are
required for the application at hand and consult the separate
installation instructions for the accessories. Some of the
accessories, especially on the indoor units, can be installed much
easier if planned ahead.
