Refurbishment and tenant fit-out projects are where terminal unit selections are most often reopened, because the existing ceiling module rarely matches the drawing set. The Midea Compact Four-way Cassette Fan Coil Unit is dimensioned for that reality: a 575×575mm body that drops into the standard 585mm ceiling grid used in commercial buildings worldwide, with no grid cutting, no bespoke framing and no ceiling patching. Across the combined AC and DC range it covers 400–600 CFM and 2.98–4.78 kW of cooling — the small-to-medium zone band that dominates refurbishment schedules — and Eurovent-certified figures allow a like-for-like replacement to be specified on performance.
The section is where this unit earns its place on a design drawing: 204mm body height, reduced to 198mm on 3rd Generation DC models, clears the shallow slab-to-slab zones in older buildings that rule out standard cassettes. The 500mm condensate lift pump — 1200mm on 3rd Generation DC — removes drainage fall from the coordination problem, and the integrated safety mesh protects maintenance staff during filter service without adding a removable guard to the specification. A standard 360° panel provides even distribution with no vane balancing at commissioning, and the two-row coil, G3/4" connections and 1.6 MPa maximum working pressure sit within normal chilled and low-temperature hot water practice. Factory two-pipe and four-pipe versions match the existing hydraulics, and an electric auxiliary heating option is available.
For whole-floor replacement strategies the DC inverter brushless version is the stronger line in the report: a minimum draw of 5W at low speed, up to 30% lower fan energy and sound pressure from 30 dB(A), with seven speeds through the KJR-75A controller for room-by-room balance at handover. All models run on 220–240V / 1Ph / 50Hz. Hongtai supports multi-site and chain-wide programmes with OEM/ODM customisation — custom voltages from 180–440V at 50/60Hz, project branding, and Modbus or BACnet protocols — so a standard specification can be applied across a portfolio without a separate approval route in each country.
Where the replacement is defined by an insurance settlement or a fixed refurbishment budget, the AC three-speed version keeps the intervention simple and the unit rate low, with a control philosophy that matches whatever the building already has. Where the design is being reported against an energy target, or the landlord will carry the running cost for a decade, the DC inverter brushless version is the better case: 5W at low speed, up to 30% lower fan energy, seven speeds through the KJR-75A controller and 198mm section depth on 3rd Generation models for the tightest voids. Dimensions, grid fit, connections and panel are identical, so the hydraulic and ceiling drawings do not change with the motor tier.
A: Yes. The 575×575mm body is dimensioned for the standard 585mm module used in commercial buildings, so the existing grid, hangers and ceiling tiles are retained. Where the existing grid is non-standard, the module should be confirmed on site before the equipment order is placed.
A: The body is 204mm high, and 198mm on 3rd Generation DC models. Add the hanger and service clearances given in the installation manual to arrive at the required void, then compare against the structural zone; the DC tier is normally the correct selection where the void is the constraint.
A: The standard panel distributes through a circular outlet on the same chassis, so the terminal unit, capacity and connections are unchanged. If the specification is written around a four-outlet pattern, the requirement should be worded around the chassis and the distribution pattern rather than the panel type.
A: It is the verified minimum power input of the DC range at low speed, and it should be used with the design airflow and the expected speed profile rather than as an average. Applied that way, the up to 30% fan energy reduction against the AC equivalent is a defensible input to a whole-floor replacement case.
A: Yes. Factory two-pipe and four-pipe versions are both offered, and the electric auxiliary heating option is available across them, so the heating source can be resolved without changing the terminal unit family.
