Up to 50m length difference between the longest and the shortest piping from the first branch
Flexible piping layout makes it easier to design systems for locations such as train stations, airports, schools and hospitals.
· Up to 64 units can be connected to one system
· Difference between maximum and minimum pipe runs after first branch can be a maximum of 50m
· Larger pipe runs can be up to 200m
L1 = Longest pipe run. L2 = Shortest pipe run. L1 - L2 = Maximum 50m.

Connectable Maximum allowable indoor / outdoor capacity ratio up to 200%*
ECOi EX attain maximum indoor unit connection capacity of up to 130% of the unit's connection range. This limit can be overpassed and reach up to 200% if some conditions are satisfied. With this feature, ECOi EX provides an ideal air conditioning solution for locations where full cooling/heating are not always required in all spaces at same time.

With this feature, ECOi EX provides an ideal air conditioning solution for locations where full cooling/heating are not always required in all spaces at same time.
Note: If more than 100% indoor units are operated with a high load, the units may not perform at the rated capacity. For the details, please consult with an authorised Panasonic dealer. * If the following conditions are satisfied, the effective range is above 130 % up to 200 %. Obey the limited number of connectable indoor units. The lower limit of operating range for heating outdoor temperature is limited to -10°C WB (standard -25°C WB). Simultaneous operation is limited to less than 130% of connectable indoor units. 1,5kW capacity of Indoor Units are included.
A large number of indoor unit models can be connected

High Efficiency Combination Model
Space-saving Combination Model
- Wide range of systems from 8HP to 64HP
- Class-leading EER of 4.7 (for 8HP model)
- Higher EER than the Space-saving Combination Model e.g., a combination of two 10HP units delivering 20HP reduces compressor load
Extraordinary energy-saving performance and powerful operation. New ECOi EX ME2 Series Hi-Durability Models.
- Wide range of systems from 8HP to 80HP
- Class-leading EER of 4,7 (for 8HP model)
- Industry-leading low noise of 54dB(A) (8HP model)
- Cooling operation possible with outdoor temperature as high as 52°C DB
- Extended operating range allows heating with outdoor temperatures as low as -25°C WB

Extended compressor life by uniform compressor operation time
The total run-time of compressors are monitored by a built-in microcomputer, which ensures that operation times of all compressors within the same refrigerant circuit are balanced.
Compressors with histories showing shorter run times are selected first, ensuring equal wear and tear across all units and extended the working life of the system.
System example
A,C: DC inverter compressor
B,D: Constant speed compressor

Demand response
Featuring inverter control technology, all Panasonic VRF systems are Demand Response Management (DRM) ready. With this control, power consumption at times of peak load can be set in three steps to deliver optimum performance. This helps to reduce annual power consumption with minimal loss in comfort.
Demand control terminal is available to control 0-50-75-100% of capacities.
ME1 series features a DR terminal as standard (not a required option)
