Samsung Gulf Electronics recently unveiled the world’s first ‘Wind-Free’ wall-mounted air-conditioner, designed for Saudi Arabian climate, at the ongoing HVACR Exhibition being held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

The event which kicked off yesterday (January 14) will conclude tomorrow (January 16).

The air conditioner has integrated Samsung’s exclusive ‘Wind-Free’ Cooling technology into its design, providing customers with a cooler indoor climate, and optimal energy efficiency, without the discomfort of direct cold airflow, said a statement.

Ismail Yoon, managing director, Samsung Gulf Electronics – Saudi Arabia branch, said: “Consumers will love the cool, efficient air conditioning capabilities of the ‘Wind-Free’ air-conditioner in their living and working spaces.”

“And they will really love that they no longer have to deal with uncomfortable, cold air, as well as reduced electricity bills,” he said.

The air-conditioner provides customers with the ideal condition by maintaining the comfortable room temperature, using wind-free cooling to gently disperse cold air through 21,000 micro air holes.

Saher Hilal, head of air-conditioning at Samsung – Saudi Arabia, said: “A two-step cooling system which first lowers temperature in ‘Fast Cooling Mode’ and then automatically switches to ‘Wind-Free Cooling Mode’ creating still air once the desired temperature is reached.”

This approach can also reduce energy consumption by up to 72 per cent compared to ‘Fast Cooling’ mode.

The air-conditioned comes with Samsung’s new Digital Inverter 8-Pole with Powerboost technology, the compressor’s motor generates fewer torque fluctuations – reducing the overall energy required and shortening the time needed for the compressor to reach its maximum rotation speed.

The air-conditioner is also Wi-Fi-enabled so it can be controlled from anywhere through Samsung’s Smart Home app. Users can remotely regulate temperature, adjust settings, receive real time updates about performance and daily energy usage, as well as troubleshoot solutions when a repair is needed.

The air-conditioner’s unique triangle architecture has a wider inlet which allows more air to be drawn in at once, while the optimal width and angle of the outlet, extra v-blades, and large fan with 22 per cent larger than previous models – ensure air is cooled and expelled faster, farther and wider, to reach every corner of the room, it stated. – TradeArabia News Service
