"Beaver" Wall-mounted Type

Room Air-conditioner (Z Series)

MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES AIR-CONDITIONING

& THERMAL SYSTEMS CORPORATION

The main requirements of the room air-conditioner
market are performance (energy-saving) and low price.
The energy-saving type compact air-conditioner Z series
of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI) is very popu-
lar on account of its affordable prices.
On the occasion of the model change of the Z series
parent type, which occupies the largest production vol-
ume of MHI's room air-conditioners, a new more
compactly designed model fitted with value-adding func-
tions that reflect market needs and an integrated control
system for package air-conditioners has been developed.
The marketing of this Z series as the wall-type stan-
dard model will be expanded in the future not only in
Japan but in all parts of the world.
1. Features
(1) Compact design
The volume of the unit has been reduced by approx.
17% compared with the conventional type through im-
provement of the cross-flow fan, stabilizer, casing, etc.
and confinement of the air route layout into the space
effective for interior air flow and so forth, while the
original energy-saving performance and noise level
have not been impaired. The indoor unit width of 790
mm enables installation within half the length of a
tatami mat in a Japanese-style room, and the reduced
depth of 199 mm avoids creating an oppressive sen-
sation, thus contributing to harmony with the interior
features of any rooms.
(2) Air cleaning function
The air cleaning function for elimination and/or
prevention of pollens, fungi, ticks, germs, viruses, etc.
has been further strengthened by "bio clear operation"
that effectively utilizes MHI's proprietary "bio clear
filter," together with the deodorizing function of the
charcoal filter that is also provided.
(3) Self-cleaning operation
A self-cleaning operation function automatically
starts the indoor unit drying operation upon comple-
tion of the cooling or moisture removal operation. This
function effectively reduces fungus growth inside the
air-conditioner by drying and removing moisture.
(4) Air stream control
"3D auto air flow control" was developed by adopt-
ing independent right and left auto louvers and
upward and downward air flow auto flaps, enabling
total room space comfort by means of MHI's propri-
etary automatic optimum jet stream control in the
upward, downward, right and left directions. Seven-
step right-left and five-step up-down directional
settings and swing operation instructions can also be
given by remote control to enable precise air-condi-
tioning control. A remote control capability is also
provided to set the air blowing range depending on
the position in which the indoor unit is installed.
(5) Integrated control system
Connection to the MHI package air-conditioners
Super Link (integrated control) and to the wired re-
mote control has been made possible by means of the
newly developed interface (optional).
