9-5. EMERGENCY OPERATION

9-5-1. When IR wireless remote controller fails or its battery is exhausted

When the remote controller cannot be used

When the batteries of the remote controller run out or the remote controller malfunctions, the emergency operation can be done using the emergency buttons.

9-5-2. When wired remote controller or indoor unit microprocessor fails

1. When the wired remote control or the indoor unit microcomputer has failed, but all other components work properly, if you set the switch (SWE) on the indoor controller board ON, the indoor unit will begin Emergency Operation. When Emergency Operation is activated, the indoor unit operates as follows:

(1)Indoor fan is running at high speed. + Note on the IR wireless remote control

When the remote control does not function, it is possible to activate Emergency Operation by using the indoor unit Emergency Operation switch.

However, if the indoor unit microprocessor has failed, it is nesessary to proceed with points 2 and 3 below as in the case of the wired remote control.

2.When you activate Emergency Operation of the cooling or heating, you have to set the switch (SWE) on the indoor controller board and activate Emergency Operation of the outdoor unit.

For details on how to activate Emergency Operation of the outdoor unit, refer to the outdoor unit wiring diagram.

3.Before you activate Emergency Operation, check the following points:

(1)Emergency operation cannot be activated when:

the outdoor unit malfunctions. • the indoor fan malfunctions.

when it has detected the malfunction of drain pump during self-diagnosing.

(2)Emergency Operation becomes continuous only by switching the power source on/off. ON/OFF on the remote control or temperature control etc. does not function.

(3)Avoid operating for a long time when the outdoor unit begins defrosting while Emergency Operation of the heating is activated, because it will start to blow cold air.

(4)Emergency cooling should be limited to 10 hours maximum (The indoor unit heat exchanger may freeze).

(5)After Emergency Operation has been deactivated, set the switches etc. to their original positions.

(6)Movement of the vanes does not work in Emergency operation, therefore you have to slowly set them manually to the appropriate position.

Mitsubishi Electronics PKA-A36KA4.TH Emergency Operation, When the remote controller cannot be used, Heat pump type

PKA-A36KA4.TH, PKA-A30KA4.TH, PKA-A24KA4.TH specifications

Mitsubishi Electronics introduces its PKA series of commercial air conditioners, comprising models PKA-A24KA4.TH, PKA-A30KA4.TH, and PKA-A36KA4.TH. These units are designed to meet the growing demand for energy-efficient and reliable climate control solutions in commercial spaces. Each model in the series is equipped with advanced features that set them apart in the competitive air conditioning market.

One of the main features of the PKA series is the innovative inverter technology. This technology enables the air conditioning units to adjust their cooling or heating output according to the indoor temperature, leading to significant energy savings. By operating at varying speeds rather than a constant rate, the inverter system provides a more consistent and comfortable environment while reducing energy consumption by up to 30% compared to traditional fixed-speed systems.

Another standout characteristic of the PKA-A24KA4.TH, PKA-A30KA4.TH, and PKA-A36KA4.TH models is their compact design. These units are designed for easy installation in various commercial settings while taking up minimal space. This is particularly beneficial for businesses looking to optimize their floor space without compromising climate control efficiency.

The PKA series features advanced filtration technology, including a highly efficient air purification system. This enhances indoor air quality by removing dust, allergens, and other airborne pollutants, creating a healthier environment for occupants. The inclusion of a self-cleaning function also contributes to maintenance ease, as the unit automatically cleans the heat exchanger, preventing dust buildup and ensuring efficient operation.

Mitsubishi's commitment to whisper-quiet operation is another critical feature of these models. They are engineered to operate at sound levels as low as 19 dB(A), making them ideal for environments where noise control is essential, such as offices, hotels, or healthcare facilities.

Moreover, the PKA series is compatible with Mitsubishi's sophisticated control systems, allowing users to manage their air conditioning remotely via smartphone or tablet. This level of control enhances user convenience and maximizes system efficiency by enabling real-time adjustments based on occupancy and other factors.

Overall, the Mitsubishi Electronics PKA-A24KA4.TH, PKA-A30KA4.TH, and PKA-A36KA4.TH units represent a perfect blend of modern technology and user-centric design, providing businesses with effective, efficient, and quiet climate control solutions. With their advanced features, energy-saving capabilities, and emphasis on air quality, these models stand out as premier choices for managing environmental comfort in commercial applications.
