Review of Sakata air conditioners: error codes, comparison of model characteristics

Sakata is engaged in the production of various air conditioning systems, which are used both in ordinary household conditions and in production. The organization has a huge selection of systems for shopping centers, banks, various server rooms, as well as office premises. All equipment is manufactured using technologies from the "Toshiba" company. Production is organized at Chinese factories, which have all modern equipment and technologies, which makes it possible to implement the correct technological process.

If you are thinking about installing an air conditioner at home, then simple or inverter split systems will be the best solution, because they use modern Toshiba compressors, which ensures reliability, and Chinese production provides an acceptable cost of these systems.

Manufactured models of air conditioners

Split systems are a fairly popular type of air conditioning equipment. Sakata is engaged in the production of various types of such systems: for home, office, industrial premises, server rooms. The split systems themselves are an air conditioning system of two blocks, outdoor and indoor, all of them are divided into several main types:

• Duct - designed for hidden installation in ventilation systems. They are controlled using various remote or wired consoles. It is convenient to install in shopping malls or other premises where there is a suspended ceiling.
• Cassette (they are also ceiling) - they are also installed in semi-production premises, they have the possibility of both hidden installation and open. In addition, these air conditioners provide for the function of air inflow from the street.
• Floor standing (or under-ceiling) - air conditioners, which are also used mainly in rooms with a large area, since they have a sufficiently large indoor unit and high power. Two types of installation: under the ceiling or on the floor with fastening to the wall allow it to be mounted in most rooms.
• Wall mounted - there are household and office solutions. The difference lies in the larger possible cooling area in the case of office models. Otherwise, they are usually very similar.

The whole difference lies in the form of the indoor unit, as well as the way it is installed. The external module, as a rule, differs only in the size and power of the compressor installed in it. The company also has another, more modern type of split systems.

Inverter split and multi split systems

Inverter systems are more modern than conventional ones. If you compare them, then this option will be more profitable for the buyer, because they are more economical and at the same time just as effective. This is because a conventional system, after reaching the required temperature in the room, turns off the compressor, and then starts it again when it deviates from the set. In the case of the inverter type, the compressor does not turn off, as it can continue to operate at low power, which allows more accurate regulation of the temperature in the room.

Sakata has three main lines of residential split systems:

• Fusion - systems in which all modern technologies are applied. There are models with inverter and non-inverter compressors.
• Liberty - air conditioners of the liberty line mean various split systems with a wide range of functionality, which are sold at a very reasonable price.
• Triumph - systems that have a large number of functions, have the ability to disassemble the case for cleaning from dust and dirt, as well as a large number of filters and a good design.

But apart from ordinary household systems, there are also business solutions that are suitable for sales areas, various stores or other large premises.

Semi-industrial systems

Unlike their “brothers”, they have more industrial properties. This series allows them to be used in a variety of premises with a larger area than in the case of the most common split systems. Such equipment usually has a duct, sub-ceiling or ceiling type of execution, while according to the technology it is still a split system, which has simple control from a wired or wireless remote control and a simple device.

The design has a simple character that will suit any office space. Fits perfectly into the design of various stores or similar commercial premises. Duct air conditioners are installed discreetly, therefore the design in this case depends on the grilles purchased by the consumer. Any universal outdoor unit from the manufacturer's collection can be used. More powerful solutions are VRF type air conditioning systems.

Multizone VRF conditioners

If you read the description for systems of this type, then you can understand that these are improved split systems that allow the indoor units to work separately, and with minimal power losses.

This is the essence of multisplit systems, that they cool several rooms at once, separated from each other. And in each of them you can create your own, specific climate. Moreover, the entire system can operate from just one external unit with high power.

Therefore, there is no need to install several conventional split systems in a cottage or a country house. It is enough just to purchase several indoor units, calculate the capacity and purchase an external one. In this case, the system will be much more profitable, economical and more efficient. Each unit will have remote control capability. Based on all this information, it is worthwhile to move on to a comparison of the most popular solutions from the Sakata company.
