Midea debuts R32 VRF system
2nd April 2026
ITALY: Midea used last week’s MCE show in Milan to launch its new V9 VRF system running on R32 refrigerant.
Employing Midea’s 310° G-type heat exchanger, the new VRF is said to maximise heat exchange efficiency under the same footprint, boosting energy efficiency by 15%.
The use of low‑temperature refrigerant phase‑change cooling technology keeps the electric control components at a stable 30°C during refrigeration operation – even under high load.
To ensure system reliability, the V9 features multiple layers of protection. Its IP68-rated ShieldBox II electric control box provides complete protection against dust, water, and corrosion, and, to ensure long-term stability, the three-zoning design isolates power from control wiring, preventing accidental touch interference and phase sequence error.
The V9 addresses safety concerns with R32 by employing integrated leak sensors and rapid-response shut-off devices that eliminate hardware risk. It has also passed TÜV’s first‑ever three‑tier safety assessment for flammable refrigerant VRF systems.
