Product Details
Product Name: PEFY-WP15VMS1-E
Product Type: Ceiling Concealed Indoor Unit
Designed for simultaneous heating and cooling with heat recovery, the R32 Hybrid is a unique 2-Pipe Heat Recovery VRF System. It replaces refrigerant with water between the Hybrid Branch Circuit Controller and the indoor units. This Mitsubishi Electric technology offers the comfort and safety of a traditional hydronic system with the flexibility and control of modern VRF or VRV systems. Calculation of product embodied carbon is performed under the TM65 ANZ local addendum by CIBSE.

Embodied Carbon Result
The total embodied carbon result using the 'Mid-level TM65 Calculation' Method is: 245 (kg CO2e).
A visual representation of the Mitsubishi Electric PEFY-WP15VMS1-E Ceiling Concealed Indoor Unit is available, showing its compact design suitable for integration into ceiling spaces.
A bar chart illustrates the total embodied carbon calculation for the unit. The total is 245 kg CO2e. It also shows 'Embodied Carbon Results - Without Refrigerant Leakage' at 169 kg CO2e, 'Manufacture' at 17 kg CO2e, and 'Operating Life' at 3.4 kg CO2e.

Embodied Carbon Breakdown
A detailed bar chart breaks down the embodied carbon footprint by life cycle stages. Key contributions include Material Breakdown (117 kg CO2e), Manufacturing (32 kg CO2e), and Refrigerant Leakage During Use (17 kg CO2e). Other stages like Transport, Repair, Decommissioning, Waste Processing, and Disposal contribute smaller amounts or zero kg CO2e.
| Life Cycle Stage | Embodied Carbon (kg CO2e) |
|---|---|
| A1: Material Breakdown | 117 |
| A2: Transport | 15 |
| A3: Manufacturing | 32 |
| A4: Transport To Site | 5 |
| B1: Refrigerant Leakage During Use | 17 |
| B3: Repair | 0.3 |
| C1: Refrigerant Leakage When Decommissioning | 3 |
| C2: Transport | 0.1 |
| C3: Waste Processing | 0 |
| C4: Disposal | 0 |
Summary of Embodied Carbon Results
| A1-C4 (Excluding B1 and C1) | 189 |
| A1-C4 with Buffer Factor (Excluding B1 and C1) | 245 |
| B1: Refrigerant Leakage During Life + C1: Refrigerant Leakage at End of Life | - |
Calculation Assumptions
