Daikin FUQ71BUV1B [3/8] Seasonal efficiency optimized for all seasons

Seasonal eciency,

optimized for all seasons

Taking into account technological advances and stricter

environmental legislation, Daikin Europe N.V. is the market leader

in energy-efficient residential and commercial cooling solutions.

A good example of this is Daikin’s Sky Air® Seasonal Inverter which

was developed for light commercial applications in which seasonal

efficiency is very important. The Sky Air® Seasonal Inverter is first

on the market to anticipate Europe’s new stricter environmental

requirements.

Europe has set challenging environmental targets for 2020 and this

requires greater accuracy in measuring the ‘real life’ energy efficiency

rating of heating and cooling systems. This new measurement

regime, called the ‘seasonal efficiency’ or SEER (Seasonal Energy

Efficiency Ratio), becomes mandatory from 2013 and it measures

performance across the entire heating and cooling season, rather

than selecting a fixed point (EER), and takes into account different

outdoor temperatures and the resulting energy usage required.

Because of our new optimized inverter control technology,

the Sky Air® Seasonal Inverter performs better across the entire range

of outdoor temperatures. In addition, the auxiliary modes have been

redesigned in order to reduce energy consumption when the unit is

in standby mode. The result is up to 20% better ‘seasonal efficiency’

than the current Sky Air® Super Inverter and Comfort Inverter, also

even more than 50% better compared to non inverter systems.

As the market leaders in integrating tomorrow’s Eco-Design

principles today, Daikin is the first manufacturer to publish the SEERs

for its residential and light commercial installations.
