Mitsubishi upgrades the Lossnay

UK: Mitsubishi Electric has upgraded its flagship Lossnay mechanical ventilation and heat recovery system designed specifically for the UK’s commercial buildings.

The LGH-RVX3-E extracts stale indoor air, replacing it with fresh filtered outdoor air, while minimising the amount of energy lost by recovering the heat from the extracted air and transferring it to the supply of fresh air. 

The Lossnay is said to operate at ultra-low noise levels and is often used in conjunction with Mitsubishi Electric’s Mr Slim and City Multi air conditioning systems.

The new Lossnay features a number of improvements to enhance performance, efficiency and versatility, including the ability to be installed vertically for the first time. The controls have also been enhanced with five different levels for optimal efficiency and fan speeds that can be adjusted in 5% increments. 

A built-in automatic summer bypass also allows the RVX3 units to bring in fresh air from outside without recovering heat during hot weather. With 100% airflow still operating during bypass mode, the same volume of air is brought in – while staying cool.

The addition of optional CO₂ sensors from Mitsubishi Electric also allows for automatic incremental fan control, and the sensors can optimise efficiency by managing the RVX3 system to react to the air quality. The sensors are directly powered by the RVX3 unit, so no additional power supply is required.

The new system also offers patented fan coating for improved air quality, longer life and easier maintenance, and comes in a range offering air volumes from 150m3/ h to 2,000m3/ h to meet the need of every project specification.
