VRV / VRF Systems

Design, Revit modelling, installation and commissioning of multi-zone VRV/VRF systems for offices, campuses and government buildings across Indonesia.

VRV/VRF is a multi-zone air-conditioning system in which one outdoor unit serves many indoor units through refrigerant piping. SOKANTARA designs, models in Revit, installs and commissions VRV/VRF systems for offices, campuses and government buildings.

VRV/VRF systems control each zone separately and can run efficiently, but only if the pipe design, refnet selection and commissioning are done carefully.

Scope

  • System design: zoning, outdoor and indoor unit selection, and checks against the manufacturer's limits on pipe length and height difference.
  • Revit modelling, so refrigerant and drain routes are coordinated with the structure and other disciplines.
  • Installation of copper piping, brazing under nitrogen purge, refnets, insulation and control wiring.
  • Commissioning: pressure test, vacuum, additional refrigerant charge and test run.
  • Centralised control and integration with other systems if the facility team needs it.

Who it is for

Offices, campuses and government facilities with many zones and different operating hours.

Frequently asked questions

VRV / VRF Systems

What is the difference between VRV and VRF?

In principle they are the same: variable refrigerant flow systems serving many indoor units. VRV is the Daikin trade name; VRF is the generic term used by other brands.

What is the maximum pipe length of a VRV system?

Limits on pipe length, height difference and refnet spacing vary by model and brand. We always check the design against the manufacturer technical manual for the selected units.

Why does commissioning matter?

Commissioning confirms pressure, vacuum, additional refrigerant charge, unit addressing and controls work correctly. Without disciplined commissioning, a VRV system can waste energy and fail early.
