Fujitsu’s new Airstage indoor trio

UK: Fujitsu has introduced new Airstage indoor units designed for its VRF air conditioning systems, including cassette, floor and wall-mounted models.

The new Airstage Circular Flow Cassette is designed to deliver air conditioning to every corner of a room, thanks to new corner airflow paths. Combined with a high performance DC motor, turbo fan and a seamless airflow louvre design, the new cassette is said to offer 360° coverage.

Each louvre can also be set individually via Fujitsu’s touch panel remote controller, providing different directional airflows to suit all types of room layout. Systems using the wired version of the controller also have the option of Fujitsu’s occupancy sensor.

Noise is reduced to 33dB(A) by the Airstage Circular Flow Cassette’s new airflow structure, with a six-speed multistep fan operation offering exceptional product performance with minimal noise.

Six Airstage Circular Flow Cassettes are available in nominal cooling capacities of 5.6kW, 7.1kW, 9.0kW, 11.2kW, 12.5kW and 14.0kW.

The new compact Airstage Floor can be installed in a variety of locations and can also be semi-concealed, as well as wall-mounted, depending on the application.

Four models are available with nominal cooling capacities of 2.2kW, 2.8kW, 3.6kW and 4.0kW. The six-speed multistep fan operation offers operating noise levels as low as 22dB(A).

The latest Airstage Wall Mounted units boast increased capacities and a new flat design. The introduction of a new, more powerful diffuser has resulted in a 20% increase in vertical and horizontal airflows.

There are six new wall mounted models in the range, with total cooling capacities of 3.6kW, 4.0kW, 5.6kW, 7.1kW, 9.0kW and 10.0kW. Two existing smaller models at 2.2kW and 2.8kW are also available. Each unit also benefits from six-speed multistep fan operation, which can guarantee noise levels as low as 33dB(A). The 3.6kW, 4.0kW, 9.0kW and 10kW models also feature an occupancy sensor.
