Checklist for Liebert XDP Startup

3.1.1Calculating Refrigerant Charge—Example

Using Tables 6, 7, 8 and 9, calculate the refrigerant charge of the individual sections of your Liebert XD system. Add the calculated charge amounts to determine the amount of R-134a refrigerant required for one system combining a Liebert XDP with Liebert XD cooling modules (Liebert XDCF, Liebert XDH, Liebert XDO and Liebert XDV). The example below combines one Liebert XDP with 20 Liebert XDV8 cooling modules.
