The indoor unit for MDS system is slightly different with indoor unit of ordinary split system.
For MDS indoor, there are additional sensors which allow precision control over
temperature.
The modulation of indoor EXV is controlled by the readings of T
Generally, the opening/modulation of indoor EXV is described by the number of steps,
where each step refers to different EXV opening size. For example, if the indoor unit
requires more cooling, the EXV steps will increase to allow more refrigerant to flow into the
indoor.
The table above shows the fan speed modulation when indoor fan speed is set to AUTO. It
is applicable for both cooling and heating cycle. For heating mode, readings from sensor
T is used to control the fan speed.
