1.3.4 Energy Saving
The inverter system capacity modulation range is from 30% to 100%, while MDS system
capacity modulation range is from 10% to 100%;
Quick response to the capacity modulation;
Min. power consumption is only 10% of the full load power consumption;
Compared to the inverter system, there is no power consumption of transducer;
Compared to the nominal capacity scroll system, it can save 20% energy consumption.
1.3.5 Flexible Combination of Indoor Units
Max. capacity of the indoor units can reach 130% capacity of the outdoor unit;
Number of the indoor units connected to the outdoor unit depends on the capacity of the outdoor
unit;
One outdoor unit can be connected up to 48 indoor units;
Various types of indoor units are available according to the decoration of the room;
There are various indoor units for option: ceiling cassette, ceiling concealed, high static
pressure duct and ceiling exposed/floor standing.
1.3.6 Reliable Long Piping Connection Design
Max. piping length is 150m (12HP-30HP), max. height between outdoor unit and indoor
unit is 50m (8HP-30HP).
