OmniCore Classic Multi Room Heat Pump Systems — Small to Medium Residential Homes
Description

While a standard heat pump system consists of a single indoor and outdoor unit, an OmniCore Multi Room Heat Pump System provides a whole home heating or cooling solution by connecting multiple indoor units to a single OmniCore outdoor unit.

Not only then is tailoring the indoor units to each space possible to meet design requirements, exterior aesthetics are also maintained by reducing the number of outdoor units needed — this is of particular benefit to medium to high-density projects such as townhouses and apartments where outdoor space is often limited.

An OmniCore Classic Multi Room System offers flexible install options, with over 55 different indoor units to choose from including high walls, floor consoles, ducted or cassettes.

There are multiple outdoor units available depending on the scale of the project and future needs.

For more than 6 indoor units please refer to the OmniCore Pro Multi Room Heat Pump Series.

Scope of Use

A Mitsubishi Electric OmniCore Multi Room Heat Pump System offers the flexibility to choose the perfect heat pump for each room with just one OmniCore outdoor unit. Intended to minimise the clutter of having several outdoor units outside while also offering flexible design opportunities and individual room temperature control — it's an ideal solution for small to medium-sized homes, townhouses and apartments.

OmniCore Classic — MXZ Range (R32) of Outdoor Units:

  • MXZ-2F52 (6.1 kW Heating) Connect 2 indoors
  • MXZ-3F54 (7.0 kW Heating) Connect 2-3 indoors
  • MXZ-4F71 (8.0 kW Heating) Connect 2-4 indoors
  • MXZ-4F80 (8.8 kW Heating) Connect 1-4 indoors
  • MXZ-5F100 (10.0 kW Heating) Connect 1-5 indoors
  • MXZ-6F120 (13.2 kW Heating) Connect 1-6 indoors

Final outdoor unit selection will be affected by several different factors:

  • The combination of rooms and their location, as well as operating use, will determine which of the proposed models required
  • In many cases, an outdoor unit with a lower heating capacity may be adequate where not all indoor units are required to operate at full capacity simultaneously
  • If considering adding more indoor units in the future, in the interests of future-proofing, it may be best to select an outdoor unit capable of providing more heating capacity than is currently required

Also note:

  • OmniCore Classic refrigerant piping is extendable up to 25m per indoor unit (MXZ-2F52 up to 20m)
  • Optional Corrosion Protection Service to reduce the likelihood of premature corrosion in coastal environments
Limitations on Use

Every OmniCore Classic Multi Room outdoor unit has three parameters that determine the number and size of indoor units that can be connected to it:

  • 1. The number of indoor units that can be connected. Ranging from 1 to 6 indoor units dependent on outdoor unit (for more than 6 indoor units please refer to the OmniCore Pro Multi Room Heat Pump Series)
  • 2. The maximum individual indoor class rating that can be connected. Ranging from 15 to 80
  • 3. The maximum total class rating of all units that can be connected. Ranging from 75 to 180 dependent on unit

This product should not be used in the following situations:

  • In an area affected by heavy snowfall or blowing snow — in areas with heavy snow please install a canopy, a pedestal and/ or some baffle boards.
  • Within 3 metres from an antenna of TV set or radio. Operation of the air conditioner may interfere with radio or TV reception in areas where reception is weak. An amplifier may be required for the affected device.
  • Where there is risk of combustible gas leakage.

For larger homes, offices and other light commercial applications, please refer to the OmniCore Pro Multi Room Heat Pump Series.

Optional Upgrades:

  • NYALIC Surface Treatment and Silicon PCB Treatment (on request) will help increase the life of the product as well as reduce the likelihood of unsightly premature corrosion in less-than-deal environmental conditions.

This high-performance two- stage advanced air filtration module, cleans and minimises dust and other allergens for better indoor air quality, all year round.
