MHI extends KXZ3 VRF series
17th January 2026
JAPAN: Mitsubishi Heavy Industries has expanded its KXZ3 series of R32 VRF air conditioners up to 201kW.
To complement the existing three 22.4kW, 28kW and 33.5kW models, a total of seven units in the range from 40kW to 67kW range have been added. The addition of the new units increases the maximum system capacity to 201kW.
The new additions are said to be in response to increasing demand in overseas markets. Sales will begin this spring in Europe, with sequential sales launches in Australia, New Zealand, and Turkey.
All models have a uniform height of 1,750mm, making it easy to connect the units, design piping, and install and maintain systems.
The energy efficiency has been improved with a new type of compressor and renewed air flow path design. In addition, a variable temperature and capacity control+ function has been added, as well as a hot gas bypass defrost operating mode that lessens the fall in indoor temperature common with conventional defrosting operation.
MHI Thermal Systems also offers a lineup of dedicated safety devices including a shut-off valve that blocks the flow of refrigerant in the event of a refrigerant leak or other abnormality.
