Description
The window air conditioning system consists of a combined outdoor unit and indoor unit with remote control. In function
the system refrigerates air. The air conditioning system provides a continuous flow of cold fluid which decreases the
temperature of the heat exchanger, which in its turn absorbs the energy of the air, resulting in a room air temperature
decrease. The remote control enables the user to operate the indoor unit.
The part of the air conditioning system situated on the outside consists of a sheet steel enclosure and contains a heat
exchanger, a hermetically sealed compressor, one pressure regulated valve for controlling the refrigerant and NTC
temperature sensors. The sheet steel enclosure is partly part of the protection degree against ignition applied.
The part of the air conditioning system situated on the inside consists of a heat exchanger and NTC temperature
sensors all covered by a non-metallic hood. The electronically driven fan provides air flow on both sides of the system.
The infra-red remote control contains electronics (PCB) with a display and membrane pushbuttons all housed in a non-
metallic housing containing two (2) 1,5 V DC AAA dry cell batteries.
The ambient temperature allowed for the apparatus is -20 °C to +45 °C.
