Baxi PLATINUM BC iPlus 16 MR Two-Block Aerothermal Set - Fan Coil Version

The Baxi PLATINUM BC iPlus 16 MR is a bi-block air source heat pump system designed to offer an efficient and versatile solution for space climate control through fan coils. This air-water system with inverter technology allows for both heating and cooling, delivering superior performance in both modes. It is a high-capacity single-phase heat pump, with a heating output of 14.65 kW and a cooling output of 18.36 kW, suitable for installations that require efficient temperature control throughout the year.

The system comprises an outdoor unit and an indoor unit, both designed to ensure efficient and flexible installation. The indoor unit is conveniently insulated to prevent condensation and features a control panel equipped with a large display, facilitating monitoring and adjustment of operating parameters. This set stands out for its ability to deliver hot water at a maximum temperature of 60°C in heating mode, and for its ability to generate cold air with a minimum temperature of 7°C in output, making it an ideal choice for both comfort and energy performance applications.

A key feature of this system is its ability to connect to BAXI Connect thermostats, allowing users to control and manage the installation remotely via their mobile devices, providing unprecedented comfort and flexibility. This functionality enhances operational efficiency by allowing the temperature of the home or installation to be adjusted at any time and from anywhere.

Key technical specifications:

• Heating output: 14.65 kW.
• Cooling output: 18.36 kW.
• Nominal electrical power: 3.47 kW.
• Heating performance (COP): 4.22 (according to UNE 14511-2), ensuring excellent energy utilisation.
• Cooling performance (EER): 2.81 (according to UNE 14511-2), optimising electricity consumption in cooling mode.
• Indoor unit dimensions: 400 x 679 x 402 mm, with a weight of 55 kg.
• Outdoor unit dimensions: 950 x 1350 x 417 mm, with a weight of 130 kg.

Ease of installation and maintenance:

The system is designed to be easy to install, thanks to its modular structure that allows for installation in parts. The unit’s support allows pipes to be installed from the top, side, or bottom, providing great flexibility in small or hard-to-reach spaces. Additionally, the set has been conceived to be mounted within standard 600x600 mm cabinets, making it a practical option for homes with space limitations.

The hydraulic kit accompanying the system already includes all the components necessary for installation, such as the filter, three-way valve, DHW safety valve, and filling tap. This, together with the pre-installed components in the indoor unit (such as the heating safety valve, expansion vessel, and circulator), ensures quick and easy installation, reducing associated time and costs.

Notable features:

• Connectivity with BAXI Connect: Control the system from anywhere with your mobile, allowing remote management of heating and cooling, optimising comfort and energy efficiency.
• Integrated backup resistors: To ensure constant performance even in the coldest conditions, the system includes additional resistors that complement the heat pump function.
• Installation flexibility: The modular design and pipe connection options from different angles facilitate installation in a variety of environments, from homes to commercial installations.
• Domestic hot water production (DHW): With the addition of the optional three-way valve kit, the system can efficiently manage DHW production, further expanding its capabilities.
• Integrated accumulator: It features a 177-litre accumulator, ensuring a constant supply of hot water, improving comfort and reducing waiting time for water at the desired temperature.

Efficiency and sustainability:

The Baxi PLATINUM BC iPlus 16 MR is characterised by its high energy efficiency, as reflected in its COP of 4.22 in heating mode, ensuring that for every kW of electricity consumed, more than 4 kW of thermal energy is generated. This translates into significant energy savings, reducing both operating costs and carbon footprint. In cooling mode, its EER of 2.81 also ensures efficient energy use, making it an attractive option for warm climates where air conditioning use is frequent.

In summary, the Baxi PLATINUM BC iPlus 16 MR is an advanced solution for fan coil installations requiring a reliable, efficient, and easily controllable climate control system. Its flexible design, integration of pre-installed components, and mobile connectivity make this set an ideal choice for those seeking performance, comfort, and energy savings in a single unit.
