Distribution controller for air conditioner

A heat medium relay device includes a valve block provided in a third space, and including a plurality of valves to allow a secondary heat medium subjected to the heat exchange at a first heat exchanger and a secondary heat medium subjected to the heat exchange at a second heat exchanger to flow to at least one indoor unit, the valve block being lighter in weight than each of the first heat exchanger, a first pump, the second heat exchanger, and a second pump.

Heat medium relay device

A relay unit includes: a heat medium heat exchanger; a casing; a first refrigerant pipe connection port connected to one of two refrigerant pipes through which refrigerant circulates between the heat medium heat exchanger and the heat source side unit; a second refrigerant pipe connection port connected to an other of the refrigerant pipes; a first heat medium pipe connection port connected to one of two heat medium pipes through which a heat medium circulates between the heat medium heat exchanger and the load side unit; and a second heat medium pipe connection port connected to an other of the heat medium pipes. The first refrigerant pipe connection port, the second refrigerant pipe connection port, the first heat medium pipe connection port, and the second heat medium pipe connection port are provided on a top surface of the casing and face in a direction opposite to a direction of gravity.
