Calculated for both liquid line sizes (where applicable), but only with larger suction line size(where applicable)NOTE: For applications with equivalent length greater than 57 m (188 ft) and/or linear length greater than 38 m (125 ft),contact your local Carrier representative.Table 5 – 38AUD Maximum Suction Pipe SizeModel: Unit Size Maximum Tube Size38AUD16 15 / 825 15 / 8INSULATE SUCTION LINES — Apply closed-celltubular insulation to all suction lines between evaporatorcoil connection and 38AUD unit’s suction service valve.Hot Gas Bypass — Hot gas bypass, if used, should beintroduced before the evaporator. (A bypass route that alsobypasses the evaporator circuit may lead to oil trapping inthe evaporator circuit during low load conditions and thento oil slugging as evaporator load increases.) Model38AUD units do not include a hot gas stub connection; atee must be field-supplied and installed in the compressordischarge line. Run a 1 / 2 -in OD line between outdoor unitand evaporator coil inlet. Install an Auxiliary SideConnector at the evaporator between TXV and distributor(follow instructions for the side connector part). Insulatethe hot gas line.38AUD
