New added unique features
In 2007, Panasonic launched ECONAVI (Human Detection Technology) to its air conditioners.
The ECONAVI sensors moderate the temperature in a room and senses when there is activity;
which then automatically adjusts the temperature setting accordingly for maximum energy efficient operation.
The absence detection feature switches to a slightly less powerful cooling mode when the room is empty.
ECONAVI with Intelligent Eco Sensors
ECONAVI in cooling mode: *The target temperature set by ECONAVI will be restored automatically to the set temperature when the new condition is detected.
ECONAVI detects human
absence from the room
and raises the target
temperature.
Absence Detection
No one is in the room.
Detects absence.
Gradually modulates cooling
power by setting the new
target temperature
(set temp +4˚F)

ECONAVI detects changes in
activity levels and reduces
the cooling power by
adjusting set temperature.

The Advantages of Inverter Control
Comparing inverter and non-inverter air conditioners to cars…
The accelerator can't be adjusted, so you spend a long
time getting comfortable, then soon become uncomfortable.
Keeps the temperature
comfortable all the time.
Adjusts the accelerator and
thus runs more economically.
Reaches the comfortable
zone quickly.
START
Runs at a fixed speed and takes
longer to reach the comfort zone.
The room gets too cold,
then too warm.

Setting Temperature
Panasonic’s inverter technology constantly adjusts its
compressor rotation speed to provide maximum performance
at all times. This extremely precise operation enables
quick cooling or heating while reducing power consumption
compared to conventional non-inverter units.
Provides Optimum Performance
While Reducing Energy Usage
Panasonic inverter air conditioners/heat pumps are designed
to give you exceptional energy savings performance while
ensuring you stay comfortable at all times.
Reduces Electricity Consumption
Precise temperature control with a wide power output range
enables an inverter air conditioner to meet different room
occupancy levels – thus ensuring constant comfort.
Constant Comfort
Panasonic Inverter air conditioners can operate with higher
cooling/heating power during the start up period to cool/heat
the room faster than non-inverter models.
Quick Cooling and Heating
The indoor operating noise has been reduced by 5dB as the
Inverter constantly varies its output power to enable more
precise temperature control.
