BRANCH LINE PIPING
Suction Line – All Defrosts
• Pitch in direction of flow.
• May be reduced by one size at one third of case
run load and again after the second third. Do
NOT reduce below evaporator connection size.
• Suction returns from evaporators enter at the
top of the branch line.
Liquid Line – Off-time and Electric Defrost
• May be reduced by one size after one half the
case load run. Do not reduce below evaporator
connection size.
• Take-offs to evaporators exit the bottom of the
liquid line. Provide an expansion loop for each
evaporator take-off (minimum 3 in. (76 mm)
diameter).
Liquid Line – Koolgas Defrost
• Maximum of 6 evaporators per Branch System.
• Increase the liquid line size inside the case by
two sizes over the branch size.
