The manufacturer of HVAC equipment Komatsu is a dynamically developing Chinese company KOMATSU ELECTRIC Co. LTD., Located in Hong Kong. Today, the company occupies one of the leading places in the development, production and supply of goods worldwide. All series of split systems are produced at the best Chigo factory in China, equipped with the most modern equipment.
The process of assembling air conditioning systems has been perfected, and the involvement of intermediary organizations is completely excluded. This allows constant monitoring of any production phase and bring the defective product rate to zero. The manufacturer has created a network of industrial branches, on the basis of which both the main components and body parts, as well as branded packaging materials are manufactured. The brand independently mastered the production of such elements as:
- Multifaceted evaporators.
- Condensers for all models of climatic devices.
- Built-in electronics.
For the past fifteen years, the brand has been directing its production and intellectual resources to the development and conquest of the world international market. Currently, finished goods are delivered to more than 150 countries around the world.
The main line of air conditioners and products
The Chigo plant is the main production base not only for Komatsu brand products, but also for such brands of air conditioners as MitsubishiHeavy. The complete absence of defective products is the only quality standard to which the company is oriented. In addition, the organization was awarded the distinction for environmental protection, for the introduction of energy-saving technologies and safe production.
Among the models of air conditioners, the following product groups are distinguished:
- split system for servicing residential and office buildings;
- multi-function household “split” based on inverter compressor control;
- powerful cassette installations for production and semi-production purposes;
- floor and ceiling multisplit;
- mobile devices.
KOMATSU ELECTRIC Co. Management LTD ”adheres to the existing stringent requirements of certification bodies of the global market of electronics and household appliances. For example, “Quality Management System“ IS0-9001 ”,“ Management and Environmental Management System “IS0-14000”, Certificate “On the level of energy conservation of goods in China”, Certificate of Conformity “RosTest”, Certificate of European Union “CE”, Certificate of Conformity safety level of goods "ASS" (Australia) and others.
Wall conditioners
Installing an air conditioner on one of the walls of the room is the most common way of installing climate control equipment. The indoor unit installed in the room practically does not occupy the space of the room, gradually brings microclimate indicators to optimally suitable indicators. Among the popular household air conditioners "Komatsu" there are both inverter and non-inverter models:
- Series of inverter air conditioners: "V2", "V4", "V5", "V7".
- Popular series of non-inverter models include “H1”, “H2”, “H4”, “H7”, “H5”, “BY1”, “BY2”.
All split systems of this category consist of two interconnected blocks: internal and external. Depending on the specific equipment model, Komatsu air conditioners, judging by the reviews, are capable of servicing objects up to 50 m2. The device copes with the task of cooling, heating and ventilation.To control such equipment is quite easy: a remote control is included in the kit, which allows not only turning the device on and off, but also setting the most suitable operating mode.
What is the difference between the wall multisplit company KOMATSU and similar products of competing companies? Here are some clear benefits:
- Reliable Japanese compressors.
- A complete set of basic and additional options, including the modes of "Restart", "Sleep", "Turbo".
- Efficient filtration system including catechin and catalytic filter.
- The option of three-dimensional airflow, which allows you to evenly distribute the air flow inside the space.
- Built-in ionizer.
- Timer.
All models of these series are equipped with a self-cleaning mode, and the function of locking the settings will protect against inadvertent reinstallation. Another important feature of the wall line from the brand is their ability to cool the air even if the summer is extremely hot, up to + 45 ° С. It is possible to configure the device for the purpose of heating a room with indicators of external temperatures up to -10 ° С.
Cassette Climate Systems
Komatsu cassette air conditioners as well as duct air conditioners must be installed in the space between the ceiling and the false ceiling. Such equipment belongs to the category of semi-industrial installations. The difference between air conditioners - “cassettes” is that the distribution of chilled or hot air occurs through the lower part of the built-in design.
The use of such models is most appropriate in public, commercial and office buildings. The main technical characteristics of cassette models are:
- durable compressors from Hitachi and Sanyo;
- Hold mode
- timer and sleep mode;
- options for the size of the external grill: 60X60 cm or 1.20m X60 cm for enlarged objects.
The design is thought out to the smallest detail. After the installation is completed, the external grill is practically not visible, which does not spoil the overall design of the room. Cooling or heating occurs as evenly as possible, as the air flow is distributed in four directions.
Ceiling multi-split systems
Unlike cassette systems, such equipment does not require a suspended ceiling. The main difference of this design is a relatively small block depth (from 18 to 25 cm). There are two installation options: in the wall surface or in the ceiling. By the way, the further direction of the incoming air flow depends on the installation option. With a wall mount, the air is directed vertically, and with a ceiling horizontally.
Thus, the ingress of cold flows on the occupants of the rooms is absolutely excluded, and heat in the heating mode will spread smoothly and quickly. In addition, it is possible to adjust the intensity of the device due to several speeds, including in the "Turbo" mode. From the description of climate technology, the following characteristics are distinguished:
- Japanese Hitachi / Sanyo compressor;
- full set of options, advanced functionality;
- temperature adjustment;
- it is possible to heat and cool the air in the “3-D” airflow mode.
The price of such installations is slightly higher, but the service area is much larger (up to 140 m2). The entire KFC series is designed to serve retail, office, office buildings, and non-standard building structures.
Mobile air conditioners
Komatsu mobile air conditioners are compact portable devices that can work not only as a familiar household air conditioner, but also as a powerful heater. All monoblocks from this brand are united in the KPT line. Such air conditioning units do not require installation work. They are ideal not only for residential, but also for utility rooms.
As well as other models of multisplit mobile blocks absorbed all the latest technical developments:
- Toshiba brand compressor (GMCC);
- options for operating modes and intensity during operation;
- Turbo mode, due to which the premises will be heated in a matter of minutes, which is especially important in the cold season.
The wheels built into the bottom of the wheel will allow the monoblock to move around the entire space. Side handles maximize ease of movement of the air conditioner and make it safe. The front grille of the blinds can be installed in several positions. Despite its compact size, this model can easily cope with objects up to 26 m2.
