 What is VRV
V R V

variable refrigerant volume

VRV –Variable Refrigerant Volume
 Refrigerant volume varies based on load requirement by inverter technology.
 “VRV” is patent of Daikin, no other competitor can use “VRV” word.
 Other Manufacture use VRF (Variable Refrigerant Flow), some manufacturer has
patent for same technology but different name.
 VRV is a kind of Multi System ( One ODU many IDU).

38 Years

Since 1982
 Total refrigerant volume is variable?
Volume of flowing refrigerant is variable?

Total volume of refrigerant in the system is constant. It is only the

volume of the refrigerant which is circulating or flowing in the
system that gets changed according to load requirements from the
indoor unit.

 VRV Air Handling Needs

AHU=> Ideal Solution for Large Air volume requirements--

 AHUs provide large air circulation volumes and high ESPs enabling the use of
extensive ductwork runs.

Need of VRV Integration with AHU--

 VRV Indoor units & Air Handling Units for fresh Air/ recirculated air treatment can be
connected to the same refrigerant line, resulting in enhanced design flexibility and
increased energy efficiency.
 To facilitate more flexible system design in large size building.
