The maximum number of 2×8 Ray Magic NK panels per loop is 10. Each 2×4 Ray Magic NK panel counts as half of a panel.
Balancing branches (1 to 4)
Panels of a loop can be mounted in multiple tee branches configurations. When the panels of the same loop are mounted across multiple branches, to achieve a correct balance, maintain a maximum ratio of 1 to 4 between the smallest and the largest branch.
Examples
Balanced
- Two branches (2 + 8, total: 10 panels): 2 full-sized panels on one branch and 8 full-sized panels on the second.
- Three branches (0.5 + 1 + 2, total: 3.5 panels): 1 full-sized panel on the first branch, 1 half-sized panel on the second, and 2 full-sized panels on the third.
- Three branches (1 + 2 + 3.5, total: 6.5 panels): 1 full-sized panel on the first branch, 2 full-sized panels on the second, and 3 full-sized panels and 1 half-sized panel on the third.
Unbalanced
- Two branches (1 + 4.5, total: 5.5 panels): 1 full-sized panel on one branch and 4 full-sized panels and 1 half-sized panel on the second.
- Three branches (1 + 4 + 5, total: 10 panels): 1 full-sized panel on the first branch, 4 full-sized panels on the second, and 5 full-sized panels on the third.
- Three branches (0.5 + 2 + 2.5, total: 5 panels): 1 half-sized panel on the first branch, 2 full-sized panels on the second, and 2 full-sized panels and 1 half-sized panel on the third.
