The climatic equipment of the Chinese production brand Magnit has not gained so much popularity in Russia as its European counterparts. However, even a superficial analysis of the assortment indicates the possibility of choosing the optimal model. Split system Magnit is suitable for both residential and office space. Mobile counterparts have proven themselves well in operating conditions in the country and in city apartments.
Mobile air conditioners Magnit
An overview of the features of the series:
- use of safe refrigerant R-410A;
- maintenance of the device and minor repairs of the air conditioner can be done independently;
- maximum slope in non-working condition - up to 30 °;
- power varies from 2050 to 2600 W;
- the remote control is not included in the package.
The mobile climate control unit is characterized by a modern design. However, the manufacturer did not provide for a modern control system - modes are changed using a manual switch.
Correct maintenance is detailed in the technical documentation. It is important to correctly connect the air outlet and remove condensate from the device in a timely manner.
Split systems series
A wider assortment is presented in the category of classic climate systems, which include an external working unit and an internal one. To improve operational reliability, the company uses a Japanese-made Hitachi compressor in these systems. In addition to cooling, the device can generate heat, act as a fan or dehumidifier.
Series overview:
- E. Feature
- P. Standard form, no feature device. The advantage is minimal cost, ease of maintenance.
- Most advanced long life air filter system. Several operating modes are provided, including automatic.
High-quality air conditioning, a large network of service centers, reliability are the main advantages of the company's products.
Split models have a built-in timer. It has a standard set of functions, it can be set for any time period of switching on or off.
Comparison of technical characteristics
For a complete analysis, it is recommended to independently compare how this or that is best suited for a particular room. So, a mobile air conditioner Magnit of low power can be used for rooms with a small area. Due to the fact that it is mobile, each room can be cooled in turn. But at the same time it is necessary to equip the outlet of the branch pipe to the street.
Basic parameters for selection:
- device type - stationary or portable;
- rated power of cooling and heating;
- availability of additional functions - several modes of operation, filtration or ionization of air;
- cost.
For comparison, it is recommended to familiarize yourself with the characteristics from the table, which indicates the parameters of the company's most popular climatic devices. It is important to do this before purchasing a home appliance of this class.
| Model | CCCO 1009 | MC 0091 | MC 0071 |
| A type | Split | Floor | Floor |
| Cooling capacity | 2530 | 2600 | 2050 |
| Productivity, m³ / h | 430 | 320 | 350 |
| The presence of a remote control | Yes | Yes | Not |
| Noise level | 32 | 48 | 52 |
| Room area | 27 | 24 | 20 |
| The cost | Out of stock | 10840 | 9400 |
It should be borne in mind that the system unit of the control panel is not suitable for a similar one with manual control. The manual for the Magnit split system differs from the mobile one. It is important to study the description for each device in advance and understand the specifics of the setup and operation.
The classic square block MC 0071 is convenient for installation in small rooms. However, its top surface cannot be used as a stand. This can lead to incorrect operation of the climatic device.
Instructions for control panel and air conditioners Magnit
A convenient and multifunctional magnet air conditioner remote control was developed to control the functions of the split units. It has a classic rectangular shape and may differ in design depending on the selected device. But this does not affect the usability and complexity of parameter adjustment.
Control features:
- Convenient and intuitive indication of modes. They are displayed on a large liquid crystal display.
- Large buttons. At the same time, the distance between them is significant, which almost completely excludes the possibility of double pressing.
- In the event of a breakdown or malfunction of an error, its code appears on the screen.
- There is a battery indicator.
- It is possible to turn on the indoor unit without a remote control.
- The remote control may come from a different climate system. But this needs to be clarified with the specialists of the service center.
It is important to control the actual battery charge in time and, if necessary, change the batteries. The advantage is that the display has a convenient indication.
The defrost function of the outdoor unit is not available in all of the company's appliances. It is necessary to clarify its availability in advance. It is activated automatically, without user intervention. If the temperature outside is critically low, the launch will be forcibly canceled.
For the correct operation of the climatic equipment, correct installation must be performed. It is recommended to entrust this work only to specialists; in case of non-observance of the current standards, the warranty will be canceled. The manual only gives general recommendations - the details can be obtained from the service center or from a sales specialist.
In the future, you need to adhere to the following operating rules:
- Timely cleaning of the filter from dust and debris. To do this, you need to remove the front cover from the indoor unit and carefully dismantle the mesh. Wipe the surface with a dry cloth.
- Filling with refrigerant recommended by the manufacturer. The use of other formulations may lead to malfunctions or breakdown. It is forbidden to add or completely change the coolant yourself. There is a high probability of making mistakes or inaccuracies.
- Carry out preventive and repair work. The purchaser can only do periodic cleaning of the filter. All other activities should only be performed by certified professionals.
- Outdoor temperature control. If it is below -7 ° С, it is prohibited to turn on the device. Significant icing will damage the impeller of the outdoor unit.
During switching between operating modes, a temporary stop is possible. This pause is due to the adaptation of the electronics to the activated function.
Basic maintenance rules are specified in the user manual. If a difficult situation arises, you do not need to make an independent diagnosis - you should call the technical department.
Magnit air conditioner error codes
Despite the budget segment of the HVAC equipment of this manufacturer, its product line is of fairly good quality. But even if all the rules are observed, the likelihood of a breakdown or global malfunction is not excluded. Before calling a specialist, it is recommended to study the error codes of air conditioners and describe the problem in detail in the telephone mode.
Alas, no detailed fault codes are described. The error is displayed on the remote control; to decipher it, you need to contact the profile wizard. Malfunctions can be identified by indirect signs:
- The device does not turn on. The reason is the lack of power supply, the activation of the protective relay.
- Poorly cools or heats the air. The room may not be airtight, there are additional heat sources.
- Water flows out of the device. There is a slight slope, the body is not aligned.
An unpleasant odor indicates that the air filter is heavily clogged. Dirt and debris can get onto other components of the indoor unit and cause damage. Therefore, it is important to know how many times the filter needs to be cleaned, depending on the intensity of use of the climatic equipment.
Consumer reviews
The opinion of the owners of the above models is ambiguous. Affected by a prejudiced attitude towards products from China. In practice, subject to the maintenance rules, the device works without breakdowns for a long time. Therefore, not one review was analyzed, but several.
Positive points:
- more than affordable cost;
- optimal set of functions;
- convenient remote control;
- the ability to turn off the display on the indoor unit.
Among the disadvantages are the following:
- build quality sometimes suffers;
- the walls of the plastic case are relatively thin;
- the noise level of the indoor unit is increased in comparison with analogs.
In general, the climatic systems of this manufacturer are fully consistent with the price / quality ratio.
