Fujitsu’s new ‘soft black’ wall mount

UK: Fujitsu General Air Conditioning UK has added a new ‘soft-black’ version to its Airstage wall mount range for split and multi-split systems.

Operating on R32 refrigerant and available in capacities from 2kW to 4.2kW, the new ASEH**KMCG-B has a compact chassis depth of just 220mm, thanks to the design of its high-density multipath heat exchanger.

Built-in wi-fi capability makes it controllable via the Airstage app, with service and maintenance improved due to refrigerant cycle data being displayed on a compatible wired controller.

Cooling is available between -10°C and 50°C, with heating from -15°C. The large louvre design enables the unit to achieve an SEER of up to 8.4 in heating mode and an SCOP of 4.6 for cooling.

The large cross-flow fan aids efficiency and ensures effective airflow, which is achieved with quiet operating levels as low as 20dB(A) in cooling.

A 20m pipe length and 10m elevation is possible on all models, which are pre-charged for 15m of pipework. 

The unit contains an ion deodorising filter and an apple catechin filter, which breaks down odours and uses static electricity to capture fine dust particles.
