Fujitsu General Air Conditioning UK has added a new ‘soft-black’ version to its AIRSTAGE wall mount range that can be connected to split and multi-split systems.

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

Built-in Wi-Fi capability makes it controllable via the AIRSTAGE Mobile 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 louver design enables the unit to achieve a Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) of up to 8.4 in heating mode and a Seasonal Coefficient of Performance (SCOP) of 4.6 for cooling. 

efficiency and effective airflow

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

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. This removes the potential additional installation cost of refrigerant charges on site.

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

Martyn Ives, Commercial Director at Fujitsu, said, “The soft-black unit certainly attracted a lot of attention on the stand at InstallerSHOW. The matt texture of the fascia means that it doesn’t reflect ceiling lights as the mirror-style units do and it fits in with what customers are demanding in terms of interior design.”
