Beat the heat with Kenwood DC-Inverter
air conditioners
O
VER the past few years, air conditioners have
become a must have at homes in order to survive
the brutal summer season that hits all over
Pakistan annually.
With temperatures as high as 50C, it is unimaginable
that one can survive the summer season without a high
quality and reliable air conditioner that can work perfectly
in extreme temperatures. Considering that weather
remains quite hot round the clock, it results in two big chal-
lenges for the people first to find an AC that works that
well and second to manage the electricity bills that rise in
direct proportion to the temperature.
However, Kenwood has a solution to all your summer wor-
ries with its new DC-Inverter Series Air Conditioners that
will not only give you a chilled room even when its 50C in
the shade but will also reduce your electricity bills by
approximately 75 per cent. There is a lot to know about
Kenwoods new DC-Inverter air conditioners and how they
will make your summer a pleasurable one. The following
questions might help.
What is DC-Inverter technology?
The DC-Inverter technology operates such that the
energy saving is maximum. Inverter air conditioners can
vary their cooling capacity by adjusting the power supply
frequency of their compressors. The compressor starts
from zero amperes (A) gradually taking the current input
to 7A, until the compressor reaches an optimum room tem-
perature. The current then reverts back gradually to 2A
until the compressor needs to re-establish the ambient
temperature. While re-establishing, the compressor
doesnt necessarily go up to 7A and usually achieves
desired cooling at a current flow of 4A or 5A, further sav-
ing energy. Unlike inverters, a normal air conditioner
takes a jerk start to 7 ampere and even after achieving an
optimum, the compressor only falls back to 4 or 5 amperes
consuming a lot more energy than an inverter air condi-
tioner.
The inverter also has an advantage of working on a low-
ered voltage without tripping. If the power supply is low, the
inverter lowers the rotation of compressor resulting in a low-
ered cooling capacity, but continues to work. In contrast,
non-inverter air conditioners have a fixed cooling capacity
and can only control the indoor temperature by starting or
stopping their compressors, which suggests that if the volt-
age drops from the optimum level, the compressor will trip.
What makes Kenwood DC-Inverter AC different?
Kenwood has launched the first real DC-Inverter AC of
Pakistan that comprises 3DC technology, which means
that the indoor unit, the outdoor unit and the compressor
are built with DC-Inverter technology. This is the first time
in Pakistan, where all three functional units of the air con-
ditioner are built with the DC inverter technology.
This 3-DC technology makes these air conditioners highly
energy efficient with up to 75 per cent saving in the energy
consumption, which is higher than any other energy effi-
cient air conditioner in the market. It significantly reduces
the electricity bills. This high energy efficiency has secured
Kenwood eInverters a 5-star rating making them the highest
electricity saving air conditioners. In case of normal inverter
ACs, only the compressors function with DC-technology,
which makes their energy efficiency lesser than our 3-DC
inverter ACs.
Kenwoods new DC-Inverter air conditioners are not only
lighter on the pocket but are also environment-friendly as

rust-free casing that can withstand rain and dust. Hundred
they use the R410A gas that is highly eco-friendly and
doesnt damage the Ozone layer. Despite a lot of tech at
work, the new DC-Inverter air conditioners sound less than
a whisper to ensure an uninterrupted sleep for you.
In addition to the these features, Kenwood DC-Inverter air
conditioners have a bigger indoor unit that not only revamps
the room but also makes sure that the room is cooled uni-
formly. Kenwood DC-Inverter air conditioners are built with
top quality parts and utilise the most updated technology
that exists worldwide in the air conditioners industry.
How durable are the latest Kenwood DC-Inverter air condi-
tioners?
Kenwood DC-Inverter air conditioners are highly dura-
ble and are made with top quality parts and materials to
ensure that they stay with you for years. All Printed Circuit
Boards (PCBs) have protection against dust, rust, humidity
and heat. Some special features that add to further enhance
the life of these appliances include an anti-corrosion gold
fin to make sure that rust does not affect the performance
of the air conditioners. Kenwood DC-Inverter air condition-
ers come with a 100% copper installation, which prevents
gas leakages for a long time and all motors have pure cop-
per winding.
All the components and the complete unit pass strict
durability test to ensure that Kenwood DC-Inverter AC
stays with you for years.
What maximum temperature can Kenwood DC-Inverter
ACs start on, with a low-voltage supply?
Kenwood DC-Inverter Air Conditioners can work perfectly
even at 50C with the voltage dropped to as low as 150 volts.
What impact will climatic conditions have on the outdoor
unit of the AC?
Be it heavy rains, dust storms or a generally humid envi-
ronment, the climate will have no affect on the outer unit of
the air conditioner. The Kenwood DC-Inverter outer has a
per cent copper winding ensures that there are no motor
burnouts. In addition, Kenwood DC-Inverter air condition-
ers come with Ambient Cooling Technology that makes
sure that outside climate causes no harm to the inner unit.
How will electricity fluctuations affect the performance of AC?
You wont have to worry about fluctuations killing your
ACs cooling every now and then. Kenwood DC-Inverter Air
Conditioners have low voltage operation systems installed
in order to counter the regularly fluctuating electricity. The
AC will keep running till there is a supply of 150 volts but
will trip and then restart if it falls below 150 volts. Since it
operates on low voltage and can counter electricity fluctua-
tions, the Kenwood ACs do not require a stabiliser, saving
another additional expense.
What AC capacity will have the best air throw according to
the size of your room?
Kenwood DC-Inverter air conditioners have a long dis-
tance air throw and a powerful fan that allows the air to
reach every corner of the room. The latest wide angled fan
design makes sure that air reaches every corner of the room
uniformly and you dont have to sit in front of the air condi-
tioner to enjoy the chilled air.
However, in order for air conditioners to give best results

Kenwoods new energy-efficient range of ACs

K
ENWOOD Pakistan offers a
wide variety of air condi-
tioners that makes it easy
for you to find the perfect
air conditioner for your room.
Pakistani climate is not favourable for
an air conditioner to operate smoothly.
The temperatures are pretty high,
there arent any standard room sizes
and guidelines and voltages are rarely
enough for the air conditioners to work
perfectly. In order to make sure that
you get the perfect AC, we have two
ranges that will surely put an end to
your quest.
These ranges include our floor stand-
ing models and our Split AC models.
Split AC models
Kenwood offers the best energy sav-
ing options in its split air conditioner
series this impending summer. Heres
our range of split air conditioners:
eLVS: The voltages across Pakistan
fluctuate very often making it very dif-
ficult for electrical appliances to func-
tion properly. This fluctuation not only
affects the performance of the
machines but can cause severe damage
to them. In order to make sure the volt-
age fluctuation does not prevent you
from having a chilled room, Kenwood
has launched the new eLVS series. The
new eLVS series is designed to function
in high temperatures and low voltage,
entirely ridding you of the troubles of
air conditioner in scorching summers.
Air conditioners specifically are
machines that completely fail to func-
tion in case of voltage fluctuations.
Many people make use of stabilisers to
counter the fluctuation issue, which
serves the purpose to some extent but
it requires further investment and also
damages the machine at times. While
fluctuations can be dealt with stabilis-
ers, if these fluctuations are frequently
dropping the voltage to below 200
volts, the air conditioners usually stop
working. For those who go through the
troubles of fluctuation, the eLVS is the
perfect AC as there is no need for a sta-
biliser and neither does it turn off till
the time it receives 150 volts of input.
The eLVS air conditioners are truly
special long-lasting machines with a
rust-free outdoor casing, 100 per cent
copper installation kit and golden con-
denser fin, which makes sure that once
installed, you wont have any reason to
remove the unit for years.
One might think that an AC capable of
working on such low voltage will not chill
as well as other air conditioners or wont
be powerful enough, which is surely not
the case with Kenwood eLVS series.
