Panasonic Unveils the Game Changing FSV-EX at MCE Asia 2015

Panasonic Air Conditioning Systems, a company fuelled by passion and poised to provide customers with effective and innovative solutions, launched the future standard bearer in energy efficient VRF air conditioning solutions - the FSV- Eco Extreme (EX).

The FSV-EX is a new, ground breaking Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) system that has been engineered to take energy efficiency to an entirely different level. It introduces this paradigm shift in performance by delivering:

• The highest EER rating in all outdoor capacities
• High efficiency for part load operations that match the customer’s actual environment of use
• High durability with strong cooling power even when operating at high ambient temperature and is designed with an extended operation range of up to 52°C

The system was launched at the Mostra Convegno Expocomfort (MCE) Asia 2015 which took place from 2^nd to 4^th September 2015. It is the first dedicated trade exhibition for the heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC), Water, Renewable Energy and Heating Sectors of the green building community in Asia.

Some of the astonishing innovations that allow the FSV-EX to change the game and dramatically reduce energy costs are:

• New dual large capacity all Inverter Compressors

It has been designed with new all-Inverter compressors that can be independently controlled to deliver highly flexible performances. As a whole, the system has been designed for efficiency – for extremely precise inverter control.

• Enlarged heat exchanger surface with triple-surface

The heat exchangers have been redesigned to maximise surface area. Compared to current dual-surface models, there is no division of space and the area for the heat exchanger is much larger, thus allowing for improved heat transfer.

• Newly designed curved air discharge bell-mouth for better aerodynamics

The new curve shape of the bell mouth (air outlet of VRF) with integrated top and bottom assures smooth exhaust flow. This provides more air-volume with the same sound level, and less power input at the same air volume!

• Superior Oil Recovery Management

Unlike a regular VRF system that wastes energy by recovering oil from indoor units, the FSV-EX features a 3 stage oil recovery design that’s able to minimise the frequency of forced oil recovery thus leading to reduced energy costs and sustained comfort.

During the exhibition, be prepared to feast your eyes on an astonishing state of the art presentation. Panasonic will launch the brand new FSV-EX using advanced 3D projection mapping technology to illustrate the system’s main features and benefits.

Other than the cutting edge FSV-EX, Panasonic will also showcase its other commercial solutions such as the Panasonic Smart Cloud, Gas Heat pump VRF system and Air Handling unit kit (AHU kit) for VRF applications, Multi-Split Room Air Conditioner and Single-Split Room Air Conditioner.

Panasonic recently announced its global target of ¥700 billion (about USD5.8 billion) in sales for its air-conditioner business in fiscal 2018 (end March 2019), a 52% increase over sales in fiscal 2014. Looking to augment its extensive product line up, Panasonic is keen to expand its large air-conditioner business by offering solutions with efficient use of gas and electricity. 

As according to Mr. Mamoru Yoshida, President of Panasonic Air-Conditioner Company, “I want to give the Air-Conditioner Company a clear mission and make our major goal becoming a specialised air conditioner company that benefits society. We will develop products that fully address customer’s needs and expand our business.”
