FIRST IN INNOVATION AND QUALITY
Bringing comfort and industrial solutions to homes
and businesses while respecting the increased
concern for the environment, demands the highest
levels of innovation and quality. To our credit belong
industry revolutions such as VRV® and inverter control,
technologies that continue to translate themselves
into new levels of efficiency and comfort. We are also
the only equipment manufacturer in the industry to
be involved in developing better refrigerants that are
safer for our environment.
WORLDWIDE PRESENCE
Having the best technology attracts the best
distributors and dealers. Thus in addition to a
guaranteed technical edge, we can count on a highly
developed sales network. We continually nourish our
relationships with distributors and dealers, which
sometimes results in acquisitions as affiliates, but
always in a win-win partnership.
FOUR PILLARS OF GROWTH
Total comfort and service to home and industry
demands a complete product range. We are committed
to the continuing development of the four pillars of our
offerings: heating, air conditioning, applied systems
and refrigeration. All of our offerings in these areas
benefit from the same technological excellence and
attention to quality that have marked Daikin products
from the beginning.
EXPANDED PRODUCT RANGE
Daikin completed the acquisition of OYL Industries Bhd.,
a world player in the HVAC-R market with major brands
such as McQuay, AAF International and J&E Hall.
In addition to strengthening and expanding our product
range in areas such as refrigeration and ventilation,
and allowing us to offer a complete line of applied

PIONEERING PRODUCTS AND
INDUSTRY AWARDS …

,CRCP st
Already in the early days of the industry, Daikin was
responsible for pioneering innovations as Japan’s first
rotary compressor and Japan’s first packaged heat
pump. In the 1960s we came out with the first Japa-
nese multi split unit. And we revolutionised the indus-
try in 1982 with an industry first: the introduction of
Variable Refrigerant Technology (VRV®), a technology
that continues to be the basis for ongoing innovation
in the comfort sector.

Our top of line residential system and another world

first, Ururu Sarara, ingeniously combines temperature
and humidity control with air purification in one total
comfort package. It is one of the industry’s most effi-
cient products. Thus it is no surprise that Ururu Sarara
won a number of awards in 2006: in Japan (Home
Environmental Equipment Prize), Italy (Heating,
Ventilation, Air-Conditioning, and Refrigeration Tech-
nology Innovation Award, and France (Eneo d’Or Award).

…ON THE BACK OF

 AIR PURIFICATION
&CKMKPECTGUHQT[QWTCKT

MCK75J
Clean indoor air in a portable package
Contemporary homes and buildings are highly insulated, leading to
a limited exchange of outdoor air with indoor air. As a result, the air we
breathe indoors can be more polluted than outdoor air, and this stale
indoor air can aggravate the symptoms of allergy and asthma sufferers.
A quality air purification system is the answer.

Air purification is an integral part of many of Daikin’s high-end climate

control solutions. This expertise is also available in a dedicated high-end
room air purifier, the MC707. Our compact MC707 employs an 7-layer
filtering system to remove 99.9% of all allergens, viruses and bacteria while
deodorising indoor air. The MC707 also features advanced control that
supports a number of modes, including whisper quiet 16dBA operation,
negative ion creation, anti-pollen mode, turbo mode for quickly cleaning a
room when conditions suddenly change, and an auto mode that senses the
air quality and adjusts its actions accordingly.

In addition to pollutants, indoor air can also be excessively dry, especially

in winter. The Ururu Air Purifier (MCK75J) moisturizes the air inside your
home and relieves the effects of dry air. Just fill the 4l tank occasionally
and it will humidify your room with a maximum of 600ml/h. This useful and
innovative function stems from the incorporation of a slim line water tank
and combined water wheel and vaporisation filter assembly.

Extracting solar heat from the air
AlthermaTM is our ideal alternative to traditional fossil-fuel based heating
systems. At its heart is a heat pump that is the result of Daikin’s 80 years
of experience. Because heat pumps extract solar energy from the ambient
air, AlthermaTM is able to offer significantly higher efficiency than any
conventional heating system: from 3 to 5 times higher!
AlthermaTM consists of a small footprint outdoor unit – the air-to-water
heat pump – coupled to an indoor unit that requires no special installation
space. This indoor unit converts the energy of the heat pump into heated
(and optionally cooled) water that can be pumped through conventional
underfloor heating elements and high efficiency radiators. Add fan coil units
for cooling and you have an ultra-efficient total comfort solution, capable of
handling any climate. In addition, an optional boiler can be added to provide
domestic hot water.
This system is easy to install, requires no special digging or drilling, and
can even be installed in flats. AlthermaTM can also be combined with existing
heating systems and other alternative renewable heat sources. It is the ideal
system to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions while providing
maximum comfort, even in the heart of winter.

U[UVGOHQT[QWTJQOG
4 air treatment techniques in 1 system
At the heart of our residential systems is our efficient heat-pump technology
coupled to innovations such as inverter control and advanced control systems.
The result is extremely efficient comfort and state of the art climate control.
Our residential split systems offer quiet, efficient outdoor units coupled
with a range of indoor units – wall mounted, floor standing, and ceiling
mount in both concealed and cassette models – to match any comfort, need
and interior. Systems offering heat pump mode provide both heating and
cooling. Split models are available for a single room and multi-split models
for multiple rooms.
Our top of the line Ururu Sarara takes our technology to new levels with
the ability to create unique room climates at the touch of a button: a skin-
friendly “hydration” mode, a “cooling breeze”, a “comfort sleep” mode and
even a “mould shock” mode for preventing mould formation. Its combina-
tion of temperature control, humidity control and air purification make it the
absolute best in residential comfort.
Our strict technological requirements also include the environmental per-
formance of our products. Testifying to our seriousness and professionalism
in addressing this challenge, many of our units have attained the demanding
European Energy Label “A” classification for reduced energy use and CO2
emissions.
AIR CONDITIONING
Sky Air + Roundflow:
#PWPDGCVCDNGEQODKPCVKQP
Daikin’s Sky Air solution
Daikin’s Sky Air solution for commercial spaces such as offices, shops,
restaurants and hotels has just been made better with the introduction of the
Roundflow cassette. Available in many sizes and in thin-body and high-COP
variants, our 360-degree Roundflow provides uniform airflow and temperature
distribution, with lower air velocities and less draughts.
Its main benefits: reduced temperature differential across the conditioned
space, ensuring optimum thermal comfort and energy savings, with some of
the highest COPs in the industry.
In addition to 360-degree operation, Roundflow also supports 4-way, 3-way and
2-way flow patterns. This flexibility combined with its light weight and minimum
depth makes for Roundflow’s easy installation in a broad range of applications.
To top it off, incorporation of humidity sensors in the cassettes results in
improved control of our Sky Air system. All our Roundflow models also offer
standard connection to our intelligent control systems (Intelligent Touch
Controller, Intelligent Manager) as well as third-party building management
systems.

The industry leader keeps getting better
VRV® is Daikin’s comfort solution for large commercial buildings. Introduced to
the industry in 1982, VRV® – or variable refrigerant volume – revolutionised the
industry. Where the systems of the time used water or air to conduct heating
and cooling energy throughout buildings, refrigerant was now used for this
task. The result: a phenomenal increase in efficiency and the birth of a new era
in comfort solutions for the entire industry.
The product was so successful that competitors have been scrambling to
catch up ever since. We, however, continue to stay ahead of the field. Since its
introduction, VRV® has increased in size and efficiency. It can support ever taller
buildings, is available in a water-cooled version, and now supports heat recovery
for the greatest possible efficiency. Models are available in cooling only, heat
pump, heat recovery versions, and VRV® supports a wide range of indoor units.

The industry’s first residential chiller
Precise climate control is vital to many commercial and large industrial
applications. Our applied systems have proven both flexible and reliable in
providing chilled or heating water for applications as varied as fish farming,
wine and cellar cooling, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, food production and
many other industrial and process requirements.
For comfort cooling, Daikin’s residential chillers are used in event halls,
large apartment blocks, hotels, offices, etc. And we offer the world’s first
inverter controlled chiller for residential use.
Daikin is the fourth largest supplier of air-cooled and water-cooled chillers with
a full range of applied systems on offer, serving the most diverse applications.
The recent acquisition of OYL and its subsidiary McQuay highlight our
commitment to this market, allowing us to offer the most extensive offering in
the industry: systems ranging from 5 kW to 2 MW.
REFRIGERATION

Integrated refrigeration,
cooling and heat recovery
Applying or combining its state of the art technologies to come up with total
solutions: that is what Daikin is about. Food retailing environments have
conflicting energy needs. Some products need to be frozen, others cooled,
while the ambient temperature of the shop itself must be kept comfortable for
customers. In the past, this resulted in the use of multiple systems working
independently, with inefficiency and increased CO2 emissions as a result. To say
nothing of the clutter of equipment with the associated noise problems.
With Conveni-pack, Daikin has combined its renowned VRV® technology, scroll
compressor technology and optimum fan and grill design with heat recovery
operation, making it the optimum total system for convenience store and
petrol station operators. Optimum system integration results in stable indoor
temperatures, efficient operation and reduced operating costs and emissions.
At the heart of Conveni-pack is the recovery of heat from the refrigeration and
cooling cabinets to be used to heat the shop area. Thus, energy that would
otherwise be wasted is recuperated.
Conveni-pack’s modular construction makes it suitable for any size of
installation. The quiet outdoor units are compact and support long piping
runs, resulting in optimum installation flexibility. Moreover, Conveni-pack
is compatible with standard third-party refrigeration cabinets, unit coolers
and controls. And its use of multiple compressors combined with optimum
control, mean not only the most efficient solution in function of demand, but
redundancy in the case of failure.

HRV indoor units

Proper ventilation is a key component of climate control in buildings, offices and
4GHTKIGTCVKQP
shops. In its basic function, it ensures a flow of incoming fresh air and outgoing
stale air. Our HRV (heat reclaim ventilation) solution can do much more. It can
recover heat and optimise the balance between indoor and outdoor temperature
and humidity, thus reducing the load on the system and increasing efficiency.
Outdoor air processing in a single unit
Our FXMQ-MFV1 air processing solution uses heat pump technology to combine
fresh air treatment and air conditioning in a single system, thereby eliminating
the usual design problems associated with balancing air supply and discharge.
Total system cost is reduced and design flexibility enhanced because the air
conditioning fan coil units and an outdoor air treatment unit can be connected
to the same refrigerant line.
Our HRV and FXMQ-MFV1 ventilation units can be easily integrated into a total
system via Daikin or third-party climate control and building management
systems for optimum comfort and efficiency.

INTEGRATING TECHNOLOGIES
Heat pumps, the heart of air conditioning technology,
have an inherent advantage when it comes to energy
consumption. They extract solar energy from the
ambient air, thereby reducing the primary fuel
consumption (electricity) needed to cool and heat.
We combine this core technology with other Daikin
innovations such as inverter control (dynamically
adjusting compressor speed in function of actual system
®
demand), VRV (variable refrigerant volume) and heat
recovery to create the most efficient home comfort
and industrial climate control solutions on the market.
DESIGNING FOR THE FUTURE
All products are designed with the environment in
mind: the safest possible materials are used, and
the safe handling of critical components such as
refrigerants is built into our systems and procedures.
Proper recovery or recycling of all components at end
of life is designed in from the beginning. Moreover,
Daikin is continuously engaged in the search for ever-
safer refrigerants.
Daikin is a market leader in this integration of advanced
technologies into total solutions. Our Ururu Sarara
total residential solution – a package that provides
the residential market with optimum temperature
and humidity control as well as air purification – has
won awards in Europe and Japan for its significant
energy savings and reduction of waste at end of life.
Our AlthermaTM heating systems bring the range
of Daikin technologies to bear on the home heating
market, producing 3-5 kWs of heat for every 1 kW of
electricity used. And our VRV® systems – the industry
standard for large buildings – consume less energy
than comparable systems and continue to lead the
way with innovations such as heat recovery.
Daikin is keenly aware of its responsibility to the
environment and is firmly committed to providing
homes, businesses and industry with the most efficient
and safest products to meet their cooling and heating
needs, today and in the future.
