Concealed ducted terminals are the part of a design most exposed to coordination change, because duct routes, riser positions and ceiling zones move after the drawings are issued. The Midea Medium Static Pressure Duct Fan Coil Unit is specified to absorb that movement: external static pressure is selectable at 12, 30 or 50Pa on DC models through the PCB or wired controller, water connections reverse from left to right on site on AC models, and return air can be drawn from the rear or the bottom. Across the combined AC and DC range the family covers 400-1200 CFM and 2.35-13.78 kW of cooling, so one schedule entry serves guestrooms, cellular offices, retail units and clinical spaces at different duct lengths.
The section and coil options are what make the unit work across new-build and retrofit: 241mm body height on AC models and 261mm on DC models sits above a standard ceiling grid, and three-row and four-row coil options match two-pipe or four-pipe hydraulics while allowing capacity and water-side pressure drop to be tuned to the plant. RC3/4" connections and a 1.6 MPa maximum working pressure sit inside normal practice, the enlarged drain pan option is available where the ceiling void is tight or the finished surface below is sensitive, and the filter assembly extracts in multiple directions so service access works whatever the void geometry turns out to be.
For specifications carrying an energy or controls clause, the DC inverter brushless range offers seven fan speeds for commissioning balance, up to 30% lower fan energy and native V8 controller integration where fan coils sit alongside Midea VRF outdoor systems. XYE and PQE ports provide central control and Modbus RTU connectivity for a clean handover to the controls contractor, and the range runs on 220-240V / 1Ph / 50Hz with an electric auxiliary heating option. Hongtai supports export and project specifications with OEM/ODM custom voltage from 180-440V at 50/60Hz, project branding and protocol options.
Where duct routes are short and direct, the AC range is the conventional selection and its on-site left/right piping reversal is a genuine design tolerance rather than a convenience. Where duct layouts are branched, long or not yet fixed, or where the specification carries an energy target, the DC inverter brushless range is the stronger choice: external static pressure selectable at 12/30/50Pa through the PCB or wired controller, seven speeds for balancing, up to 30% lower fan energy, and native V8 integration for combined fan coil and VRF designs. Coil options, connections, section height envelope and service access are shared, so the hydraulic and ceiling drawings are unaffected by the motor tier.
A: Calculate the duct pressure loss for the worst-case branch and add a margin, then specify the class that covers it: 12Pa for short direct runs, 30Pa for branched layouts, 50Pa for long runs with multiple bends. On DC models the setting is made at commissioning, so the scheduled class is a minimum requirement rather than a fixed factory build.
A: When the sensible capacity required per unit cannot be met within the airflow limit of the 3-row coil, or when the water-side temperature difference in the plant design demands a larger coil surface. The 4-row option raises capacity at the same airflow, at the cost of a higher water-side pressure drop that must be checked against the pump duty.
A: Rear return suits voids with a straight path to the unit; bottom return suits tight voids and room-side return through a grille. Both are available on the same unit, so the requirement can be stated as "rear or bottom return, contractor's choice subject to void geometry" and resolved at coordination.
A: The published sound pressure range for this family is 35-52 dB(A) on AC and 29-58 dB(A) on DC at high speed, so the unit selection and the terminal attenuation should be reviewed together for noise-sensitive rooms. Selecting the DC tier and operating below maximum speed is usually the most efficient first measure.
A: XYE and PQE ports provide central control and Modbus RTU connectivity, and the range integrates natively with Midea V8 controllers where fan coils and VRF outdoor systems share a project. The controls specification can therefore name a single point of integration rather than a gateway per floor.
