Environmental Consciousness
Enhancing the present - safeguarding the future
Throughout the last 50 years or so the basic building blocks of life - air, water and the earth - have been
systematically subjected to increasing levels of pollution with little regard to their potentially devastating
effects on future generations.
Recently however, concern has grown regarding climate changes, acid rain, water and air pollution and
the constant degradation of Earth’s natural resources. The very technology that created these problems is
now being harnessed to halt and reverse them. Depletion of the ozone layer and global warming have
been highlighted and are now being addressed. Government legislation prohibiting the use of toxic
substances and the generation of pollutants has slowed down the destruction of the environment.
Daikin Europe is proud to have been pro active in this respect, closely following its Japanese parent in
implementing policies that have often pre-empted official legislative codes and directives. As a result, a
culture of “environmental management” has since 2001, played a key role in the company’s day to day
activities and development strategies.
Top management commitment is reflected in the establishment of a number of action plans, which are
now strictly observed and implemented throughout the Daikin Group.

HRV helps create a high quality environment by interlocking with the air
conditioning system
The Daikin HRV (Heat Reclaim Ventilation) recovers heat energy lost through
ventilation and holds down room temperature changes caused by
ventilation, thereby maintaining a comfortable and clean environment. This
also reduces the load on the air conditioning system and conserves energy.
In addition, the HRV interlocks with Daikin’s VRV system, Sky Air and other air
conditioning systems and automatically switches over ventilation mode,
further increasing the effects of energy conservation. HRV operation has
been centralised on the air conditioner remote control allowing total
control over air conditioning and ventilation via a simple configuration.
The current line-up includes models with DX coil and/or humidifier - the DX
coil helps prevent the direct impact of cold airflow upon personnel during
the heating cycle and vice versa. High static pressure enhances design
flexibility.

connected to : HRV operation, greatly simplifying overall system control. The same remote
control centralizes air conditioning and ventilation operations, obviating any
need for HRV remote control installation work. Using a centralized remote
control also frees the user to choose from a wide range of control systems
that integrate air conditioning and ventilation. By incorporating a variety of
centralized control[iPU]
equipment, the user can build a large, high grade centralized
control system.

Notes: • Air flow rate can be changed over to low mode or high mode.
• Sound pressure level is measured at 1.5m below the center of the body.
• Sound pressure level is measured in an anechoic chamber.
Sound pressure levels generally become higher than this value depending on the operating conditions, reflected sound, and peripheral noise.
• The sound pressure level at the air discharge port is about 8dB higher than the unit's sound level.
• Even when the outdoor temperature is below -15°C, the system is operable down to -20°C with the preheater installed at the outdoor air intake side.

• Operation sound is measured at 1.5m below the center of the body.
• Sound values are measured in an anechoic chamber built in accordance with JIS C 1502 condition. Operating sound level generally becomes higher than this value depending on the operating conditions, reflected sound, and peripheral noise.
• The sound level at the air discharge port is about 8dB higher than the unit’s operating sound.
• For operation in a quiet room, it is required to take measures to lower the sound, for example install more than 2m soft duct near the air discharge grill.
• Air flow rate can be changed over to Low mode or High mode.
• Normal amplitude, input, efficiency depend on the other above conditions
