Daikin’s new R-32 inverter split leads the way in achieving energy optimisation and efficiencies
Daikin Industries, a top manufacturer of heating, cooling and refrigerant products, announced in 2015, the launch of GCC’s first high ambient air conditioning system to use the wall-mounted R-32, an alternative refrigerant to R-22 with zero ozone depletion potential and lower global warming impact than R-410A refrigerant.
The unique combination of R-32 and inverter technology in the new Daikin split range, FTKM/FTXM series, offers end-users the opportunity to benefit from class-leading energy efficiencies, with excellent cooling capacity and high indoor climate comfort, while lowering the environmental impact.
“Daikin aims at developing systems that improve comfort levels while having lower environmental impact. Refrigerant choice is a key factor in the drive to maximise energy efficiency and to minimise the global warming impact of systems and we aspire to expand our product usage across the Middle East and Africa,” commented Michel Farah, Director of Corporate Environment & Social Responsibility.
“The use of Inverter technology in HVAC units helps each citizen to contribute to the regional efforts to reduce environmental impact,” stated Daikin MEA Vice President, Tuna Gulenc.
The global market demand for R-32 room air-conditioners have reached 27 million units where Daikin share has exceeded 10 million units since 2012 in more than 50 countries. This has contributed to 47 million tons of carbon emission reductions, the company indicated.
