Daikin Australia announces the launch of its new Stylish Controller for Daikin VRV and SkyAir systems. This new controller, measuring just 85mm high x 85mm wide x 25mm, was developed in response to increasing market demand for a simplified, convenient, modern-looking and energy-efficient climate control solution in hotel and office buildings. The Stylish Controller is available in two colours: Gloss White (BRC1H62W), and Matte Black (BRC1H62K).

Combining design innovation and energy efficiency technology, Stylish Controller is an ideal option for building owners and facility managers looking to provide occupants with an attractive and user-friendly solution whilst optimising building efficiency and managing costs.

Raj Singh, Daikin National Product Manager, said, “The new Stylish Controller introduces a unique concept which allows users and installers new approach to air conditioning control and commissioning.”

The various features and functions of the Stylish Controller provide maximum flexibility in use. Functions can be tailored according to the application. For example the simple display allows hotel guests to easily control their comfort using the intuitive touch button control which provides direct access to a simplified list of functions such as on/off, fan speed, operation mode (cooling, heating, auto, etc) and airflow direction, leading to increased customer satisfaction. An optional digital input adaptor for key card and window/door interlock is available in four models to suit various VRV and SkyAir indoor units.

The Stylish Controller also features Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) connection of BLE 4.2 or higher for connection to the Daikin App for Installer to enable easier commissioning, configuration & enhanced functionality. Not only do the simple visual interface and menus make system field settings fast and easy, the Daikin App for Installer can be used to configure the controller in advance, meaning less time required on-site. Other advanced user functions on the app include Setback, Setpoint Range Limit & Key/Function Lock (disabling buttons & functions on the controller).
