JCI-Hitachi
Johnson Controls-Hitachi Air Conditioning Europe has launched air365 Max, a new top-fl ow variable refrigerant fl ow (VRF) air conditioning system. It is an end-to-end VRF solution that delivers seamless comfort, energy effi ciency, and easy installation and maintenance for professionals, design consultants, and commercial building owners in the
heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) sector. The air365 Max series comes as standard with both heat pump and heat recovery built in, and is available in two models: the standard air365 Max and the high energy effi cient air365 Max Pro. Both models are compatible with more than 64 Set Free indoor units, off ering unbeatable versatility for all types of installation. Featuring Hitachi’s innovative SmoothDrive 2.0 technology, the air365 Max and air365 Max Pro produce a Seasonal Energy Effi ciency Ratio (SEER) of up to 7.35 and 8.38 as well as a Seasonal Coeffi cient of Performance (SCOP) of up to 4.76 and 5.19 respectively. This effi ciency performance is made possible by superior control of the compressor speed and indoor unit expansion valves while other models in the market use the refrigerant evaporation temperature as an intermediate leverage on the thermal output. The ability to directly control the capacity even at low loads helps to reduce SmoothDrive 2.0 enables air365 Max to operate at stable and
precise temperatures that provides greater comfort for building occupants. When combined with other smart features such as Gentle Cool and Warm Feet, air365 Max addresses the issue of cold or hot air drafts and further improves the users’ comfort level. The airCloud Tap is a new generation app launched in 2023 to
help HVAC professionals install, read and change Hitachi equipment settings with ease on their smartphones and mobile devices. With the app, installers will have access to more than 200 setting parameters (ranging from basic to advanced) that will support them in optimising the equipment functions and operations. Thanks to contactless near-fi eld communication (NFC) technology, installers can now confi gure the equipment and customise its settings by 30% to 50% faster than before.

Clivet
Clivet continues its commitment to IAQ by further expanding its range of solutions for air renewal, purifi cation and sanitisation. The latest solution is Fresh Large EVO, the full fresh air unit with active thermodynamic recovery, ecological R-32 refrigerant, full inverter technology and electronic fi ltration, which simplifi es the annual cycle air-conditioning system and increases its energy effi ciency. Fresh Large EVO utilises active thermodynamic recovery technology, not only to completely cover the ventilation load, but also to provide a contribution to meeting the building’s heating requirements. Fresh Large EVO, available with air fl ow rates from 300 to /h, is ideal for commercial, tertiary and large residential
2500 m3
applications. Main features: ■ Exhaust air energy recovery with active thermodynamic recovery ■ Full inverter technology (compressor and fans); ■ R32 refrigerant reduced charge (up to -60%) a lower GWP vs R410A (-90% of carbon footprint)
■ Contribution to the satisfaction of internal loads even at extreme temperatures
■ High effi ciency fi ltration with iFD technology ■ Absence of contamination between exhaust and intake air fl ows ■ Smart free cooling and indoor air quality management ■ 30% recycled EPP structure for maximum acoustic comfort and thermal insulation, as well as ease of transport and installation
■Low noise thanks to the silent and super silent modes ■Extended operating range down to -20°C in heating mode ■ Easy system design due to the fact that all components are already integrated
■ Advanced remote control and monitoring solutions std Modbus port
■Reduced height for installation fl exibility.
