Panasonic Heating & Cooling Solutions is introducing its latest generation of Aquarea air-to-water heat pumps with the new M Series. Thanks to its new, modular concept, the M Series allows for more application choices offering different indoor units, available in All-in-One and Bi-Bloc, as well as full Control Box or Remote controller-only essential functionality options. The advanced new system utilises the natural refrigerant R290 for a more sustainable solution and includes Panasonic’s first T-CAP R290 outdoor unit that features a new injection compressor. The M Series also has a hydraulic connection between indoor and outdoor units for simple and straightforward installation without the need for relevant refrigeration certification.
Flexible and suit to all lifestyles
With its cutting-edge design, the M Series offers a range of flexible installation options. New to the M series, the outdoor unit can function as a standalone system with just an indoor remote control, making it an ideal choice for those seeking vital functionalities. Homeowners can opt for enhanced functionality by incorporating the more advanced Control Box or also selecting between a Bi-bloc or All-in-One system. This range of choices allows the Aquarea M Series to cater to a variety of functionality needs and property types, ensuring a tailored solution for every user.
Natural refrigerant
With sustainability at the forefront of its innovations, Panasonic is utilising the natural refrigerant R290 in its newest series thanks to its low Global Warming Potential (GWP) of just 3, meaning it has a lower environmental impact when released into the atmosphere compared to other refrigerants and allows for a more energy efficient solution. Panasonic’s state-of-the-art engineering maximises safety regarding R290 requirements, with the M Series incorporating a non-flammable control box, air/refrigerant separator, and a power box containing ground cable with sealed connections for peace of mind.
Efficient performance
The M Series delivers impressive performance, even in extreme outdoor conditions, offering a maximum water outlet temperature of 75°C at -10°C outside temperature and the ability to supply 55°C hot water at -25°C outside temperature. The T-CAP outdoor units maintain heating capacity down to outdoor temperatures of -20°C and can work down to -28°C. This makes it ideal for retrofit projects and renovations requiring high water temperatures for radiators. Additionally, it can achieve a domestic hot water stored temperature of up to 65°C or carry out a sterilisation cycle, without the need of direct electric heater as support.
The M Series features an enhanced design with an anti-vibration structure, redesigned chassis, and optimised fan speed to reduce noise levels, ensuring a comfortable and peaceful environment. The units maintain a low ErP sound value, a minimum of 53B(A)[1], which can be reduced even more in ‘super quiet mode’ operation, minimising disruption in any setting.
The M Series outdoor units features Panasonic’s unique and reliable R290 scroll compressor technology. Its new compressor logic allows the units to maximise capacity at lower outdoor temperatures.
