Featured companies for VRF / VRV
Daikin
understand the need for effective, energy efficient, air conditioning
units and have developed the VRV system. The VRV is comprised of
an external air cooled condensing unit, indoor fan coil unit,
refrigerant piping, power and control cabling as well as a remote,
centralised control system. Daikin's VRV system has a number of
advantages over conventional chiller based units, there is no need
for separate machine installations, with the outdoor cooled units
situated on the roof of the building. The range of fan coils
available allow custom specifications for a specific installation
or requirement and are faster and easier to install, making it ideal
for new builds and retrofitting old systems whilst keeping costs
down. One main benefit is the centralised control system, making the
regulation and operation of the system simple, and allows for
individual or specific space heating and cool requirements.
Mitsubishi
Electric are on the forefront of Air Conditioning Systems
technology. Their City Multi range is an ideal solution for large
scale VRF applications. With outstanding efficiency (particularly
the new R410A YHM-A Series models), overall energy efficiency is
increased substantially, as well as corresponding EER/COP ratings.
City Multi means sophisticated technology, combined with a high
level of energy efficiency and a high level of control, making it
perfectly positioned to suit the requirements of today's market.
Toshiba
have a comprehensive range of VRF systems designed to suit specific
requirements. The R410A MiNi S-MMS is one such system that has been
designed as a midway between medium weight VRFs and the Larger
commercial units. Larger models of the R410A system feature twin DC
rotary compressors, which maximises the energy output, making it
suitable for large commercial applications. The R410A S-HRM and
S-MMS systems are identical in appearance when used for combined
external applications, and are versatile in the interior
installation as wall, floor and ceiling units. Toshibas R410A S-HRM
has an intelligent control system, which allows multiple zone
conditioning, heating and cooling through modulating control.
Sanyo
introduced the 3 pipe VRF in 1989 and has continued to develop
upon this providing cutting edge technology and an effective, energy
efficient system with a low cost and CO2 impact. Since the first
introduction of the VRF, Sanyo have been working to develop more
efficient systems and have most recently revealed the ECOi VRF
system. Working under a lower pressure allows small pipes to be used
with the installation, thus reducing material requirement and
costing. In order to develop an accurate control capacity, the ECOi
has developed 2-3 systems fitted with DC inverters and high
efficiency fixed speed compressors to provide load requirements as
close to the building specifications as possible. Sanyo's website
offers schematic layout of pipe work, and controls for clients to
design bespoke solutions for their specific design needs.
Hitachi
VRF systems come under the Set Free range, incorporating heat pumps
and heat recovery units with the largest capacity range available,
offering 3HP-4HP systems. The Set Free Mini VRF is part of the 2
pipe FSN range offering 2-4 HP capacities with a DC inverter to
increase output efficiency. Thus maintaining a low running
requirement and a high COP rating. The external units are 33%
smaller than conventional installations, however maintain the high
output standards, as well as a remarkably low noise output. This
performance is down to a DC driven fan motor with a stream-line fan guard, allowing optimised efficiency without
the noise of standard units. Hitachi has two systems, Set Free and
Utopia, having 9 different styles with 128 approximate systems able
to be controlled remotely.
Space
Air promote Daikin VRV heat pumps and heat recovery systems, and
their understanding of the need for energy efficiency and high output requirements. Space Air VRV systems provide optimum efficiency
whilst saving space and running costs, utilizing inverter controls
to monitor and maintain high COP ratings. The VRV systems have
developed significantly in they way they optimise output through
technological advancements such as increased power capacities,
without losing costs to running the equipment. Improved fan coil
connectivity, built in leak detections and control systems also
provide a high quality performance. Space
Air also support Daikin's newest compact VRV systems into their own
product listings, meeting the requirements between standard and
industrial requirements, allowing businesses to get more from their
systems when needed.
Airedale
designs and manufactures a complete range of air conditioning
products for a global market and is part of the Modine group of
companies. Airedale was founded in 1974 and has grown to become an
industry leader in the research, design and manufacture of an
extensive range of energy efficient, intelligent cooling solutions.
Airedale’s 25,000m² manufacturing facility and £2.5 million test
centre in Leeds, UK, is regarded as a centre of excellence for air
conditioning. Recent research and development has focused on carbon
reduction and increased energy efficiency technologies to ensure
that whole life costs and the environmental effects of all Airedale
products are reduced.Arundel Jones Associates LLP Registered in England and Wales No.
