New Ducted Indoor Units For Mr. Slim® Systems

Suwanee, Ga., April 30, 2009 -Mitsubishi Electric HVAC Advanced Products Division, has expanded its MXZ Multi-zone system to include its newest unit, the SEZ ducted indoor unit. The SEZ is a horizontal ducted indoor unit which provides the benefits of Mr. Slim® systems (INVERTER-driven compressor, total indoor comfort, dry mode) with the added benefit of being able to conceal the indoor unit.

"The SEZ horizontal ducted indoor, in addition to the established wall-mounted MSZ indoor units, will provide more application flexibility with the MXZ Multi-zone system," says Chuck Applebee, product manager, Mitsubishi Electric HVAC. "The low-profile ducted units allow for the use of conventional registers and grilles connected to ductwork. The relatively low static capacity, up to 0.2 in. W.G., in relation to traditional air handlers, assures a limited amount of ductwork will be used to provide zone cooling or heating. With this new indoor unit style, the MXZ can now connect both wall-mounted and ducted indoor units to the same system to best meet the multi-zone needs for residential to light commercial installations.

The SEZ ducted indoor is controlled by the PAR-21MAA Deluxe MA wired remote controller, with the option to be controlled by the PAC-YT51CRB Simple MA wire remote controller.

A typical Mr. Slim M-Series MXZ Multi-zone system includes the MXZ outdoor unit that allows up to four connected indoor units and supports a variety of different indoor unit combinations. The MXZ heat pump unit features the proprietary INVERTER-driven compressor technology from Mitsubishi Electric HVAC, which provides exceptional high-speed cooling and heating performance. Due to the high rotation speeds of the compressor motor, desired temperatures are reached more quickly than with conventional systems, ensuring comfort without delay.

With a cooling/heating capacity of up to 36,000 Btu/h, MXZ Multi-zone systems are the ideal solution for adding comfort to multiple rooms in a home.
