Hank Choi, corporate VP and head of Air Solution Business Team, Digital Appliances (DA) Business at Samsung Electronics, stated:

The AHR Expo serves as an annual bellwether for the industry, which is why we’ve decided to introduce cutting-edge products like the Hylex series of heat pumps at this event. We are confident that the newest iterations of Samsung’s innovative HVAC technology will help to uplift the user experience across consumer and commercial applications around the globe.

DVM S2 offers next-gen VRF performance

The DVM S2, which is the latest generation of Samsung’s variable refrigerant flow (VRF) systems, has been designed to deliver energy efficiency along with excellent heating and cooling performance. The system optimizes heating cycles by analyzing fan motor currents and temperature data, reducing defrost duration and improving comfort.

Additionally, high- and low-pressure control ensures precise system adjustments, automatically recognizing pipe lengths and optimizing pressure levels to reduce the energy used by the compressor by up to 15%.

Furthermore, the DVM S2 uses data from various sensors to determine the ideal amount of refrigerant and detect refrigerant volume so that it can ensure improved performance and provide early warnings for maintenance. It also brings reduced liquid pipe diameters to lower the overall system charge by 28% on average, making the system more efficient and cost-effective, according to the company.
