Daikin 3×3 cassette with BLDC fan motor

BELGIUM: Daikin has launched the FWC-D 3×3 cassette with a brush-less direct current (BLDC) fan motor and open protocol control capability.  

The BLDC fan-motor is said to offer significant advantages, including reduced power consumption and lower noise levels. 

The FWC-D is available in two-pipe and four-pipe versions in cooling capacities from 6kW to 9.7kW. 

With factory-mounted valves, an additional drain pan is also available.

Four different diffusion panels can direct the air in different directions, providing a more even distribution of air. Next to the standard diffusion panel, design panels are also available.
