Daikin’s mini but mighty Sky Air Alpha

BELGIUM: Daikin Europe has extended its Sky Air Alpha-Series with the launch of smaller capacity units.

Said to offer the same functionality as the existing the Sky Air A series, the RZAG35, 50 and 60 A classes introduce additional flexibility to the existing range of solutions for light commercial use.

Part of Daikin’s Bluevolution portfolio, the Sky Air-A Series is the first full light commercial series with R32 in the market and offers an A++ performance.

Intelligent sensors are said to reduce draughts, ensuring constant floor to ceiling temperatures, while auto-cleaning options makes maintenance easy.

Smart controls offer an easy to use interface, with remote control though a smart phone app or central control through Daikin’s Intelligent Touch tablet controller.

With an extended operational scope, down to temperatures as low as -20°C, the new additions to the range can be used for infrastructure cooling. Long piping runs up to 55m in length and 30m in height make it ideal for inner office server room applications, offering more possibilities for extended configurations.

Like the existing Sky Air-A series the new range is designed for easy replacement. Indoor and outdoor units can be exchanged, while leaving the existing piping in place to minimise disruption.

Up to 50 different indoor unit options offer maximum flexibility.
