SERENE SERIES 2
Premium split comfort for Australian homes.

Single Room

That's better. That's Actron.

ActronAir. Because Australia needs Australian air conditioning.
The year 1984 saw Advance Australia Fair become our National Anthem, the 1 dollar coin come into circulation and a small family air conditioning business open its doors. Today, ActronAir is a proud Australian company recognised for making world-class air conditioners. Well, it stands to reason. The team at ActronAir experience the harsh Australian conditions first hand, and our climate places demands on air conditioning not found in other parts of the world.
And that's why ActronAir's engineers have developed the most advanced air conditioning systems specifically for the unique and harsh Australian environment.
Engineered with a superior operating range from -25°C to 60°C, and a host of innovative features, ActronAir's Serene Wall Split System is engineered to withstand the most extreme conditions Australia can throw at it.

SERENE SERIES 2
Serene style and substance
With its sleek form and clever features, Serene will keep your home warm and cosy in winter, cool and fresh in summer and stylish all year round. It's perfect for apartments, living areas or single rooms and with the greatest temperature operating range on the market, you can take comfort that the Serene will be there for you in those sizzling heat waves, or Arctic cold snaps.

A superior operating range suited for Australia
Most overseas air conditioners are only designed with a maximum temperature range of 43°C to 46°C. The Serene operates up to 60°C. Big deal? Yes.
The temperature around the outdoor unit can reach far higher than what they're saying on the weather report due to direct sun or heat radiating off the ground. They're often located against a wall or fence where there's low air circulation.

Nothing beats performing under extremes. Engineered for Australia, you can trust ActronAir to be there when you need it most.

Better Features
Easy on the eye
Designed to suit your décor With a modern light gloss finish and discrete tight lines, Serene's premium and contemporary styling is sure to complement all décors.
Timer
Set and forget
Serene allows for the timer to be set in half hour increments. Adjust the timing of your comfort to automatically turn the system off or on to conveniently suit your needs and maximise energy savings.
Multi speed fan control
User preferred settings
You can adjust the fan speed just the way you like it, or instead use Intuitive Mode which automatically selects from twelve different settings to suit your comfort needs. And it doesn't stop there. Serene also has five outdoor fan speeds, resulting in greater energy efficiency and reduced sound levels.

SERENE SERIES 2
Auto-restart
Pick up where you left off
Blackout? No problem. Serene's auto-restart function means it restarts automatically in its last programmed setting once power is restored, which means you don't have to spend unnecessary time reprogramming your system.
LED temperature display
Easy reading
A concealed LED display provides easy to read temperature settings when you need it, and a clean uncluttered finish when you don't.
Defrost
Stops ice build up on the outside unit
When the temperature drops outside in Winter, Serene incorporates an intelligent defrost function to prevent freezing and ensure smooth operation in conditions as low as -25°C.

Better Efficiency
With its premium DC inverter technology and next generation R32 refrigerant, Serene provides more energy efficiency than ever.

AC vs DC for rockin' efficiency and performance
Serene uses more energy efficient Direct Current (DC) inverter technology in its inverter compressor, indoor fan and outdoor fan. While some competitors use less efficient AC technology, or combinations of both, we choose DC technology as it can make a huge difference to your electricity bill.
With an impressive 25 frequency stages, our DC inverter compressor is up to 35% more efficient than AC technology, while Serene's DC outdoor fan with five speed settings is up to 40% more efficient.
The result is improved efficiencies overall, as well as optimal cooling performance at high and low ambient temperatures, and quieter operation on part load.

Better Smarts
Serene comes packed with smart features that provide you with more comfort and greater energy efficiency.

Sprint Activation
This innovative feature means Serene can get you comfortable quickly.
When activated, the compressor achieves its maximum frequency quickly, reaching 65hz within 6 seconds from start up and allowing Serene to deliver conditioned air within 40 seconds.

23°C
Outputs air at 23°C in 40 seconds

65Hz
Reaches 65hz within 6 seconds upon start up

ECO+ mode
Once you reach your preferred temperature you can engage ECO+ mode and Serene will maintain the temperature as efficiently as possible for eight hours, reducing energy consumption by up to 60% compared to normal mode.

MEUFOPFRIETCOEINE6EN0RTG%Y

Dehumidification Mode
When you've got too much humidity in a room, even if your system is set to a low temperature it can still feel warm and uncomfortable. That's where Dehumidification Mode comes in - if the conditions are really humid, simply turn it on and the system will efficiently remove excess moisture from the room, ensuring that the temperature you want will actually feel good too. The inbuilt sensor lets you control the humidity levels in the room, thus allowing greater comfort in all conditions.

8

SERENE SERIES 2
Intuitive Proximity Sensor
When activated, the Intuitive Proximity Sensor enables Serene to detect human movement, allowing it to run at reduced capacity when there's been nobody in the room for 30 minutes. And to ensure you stay comfortable, it's smart enough to automatically revert back whenever someone re-enters the room.
When the room is empty for 30 minutes, Serene automatically lowers the frequency to save energy.
Serene will automatically resume normal operation when sensing human activity again.

Better Comfort
Low Noise Mode
Serene features a "Silent" mode which reduces the noise of the indoor fan to as little as 24 decibels, which is literally as quiet as a whisper and quieter than a library.
Biggest indoor fan yet
Sometimes size does matter Serene now features a bigger indoor fan because we have maximised the use of space better than ever before. This allows it to circulate more air, quieter, while using less power, resulting in better comfort and lower energy bills.
EWXTIDRAE ALSIAERRREGONEUERSTTELRHEIAETSN.1
More air for your money
With a larger air inlet and outlet on a smaller overall system platform, Serene Series 2 gives you more air volume and quieter airflow than Series 1. The other added bonus to this is a larger fan which blows more air while using less energy - saving you money on your power bills! Now that really is cool.

Follow Me for a more attuned temperature
In most air conditioners, the temperature sensor is in the indoor unit. With Serene, we have put additional sensors inside the remote controller and wall controller.
With the remote controller, when you press the Follow Me button you'll have the temperature you want, wherever you are in the room. When it comes to the wall controller, you'll have more precise temperature control and comfort at its location.
Sleep easy
For a good night's sleep and to save energy, Serene also features a clever sleep mode. Matched to typical sleeping patterns, it tapers down for the first two hours, then holds steady for the next five to six hours, before turning off. You'll wake relaxed and refreshed and ready to seize the day.

SERENE SERIES 2
Ordinary temperature sensors are located on top of the unit

The Follow Me sensor is built in to the remote control
Set your comfort remotely
The optional EasyConnect upgrade allows you to control your Serene system wirelessly via your smart device. Cool your home down as you leave work or check you've turned off the air conditioning. It's all in the palm of your hand.
Colour-coded smarts
Unlike a lot of air conditioning controls that use confusing icons and international symbols, EasyConnect is colour-coded for simplicity. There's blue for cooling, red for heating, green for fan-only operation, teal for dry mode and purple for our set and forget auto function.

Better Health Protection
The ability of your air conditioner to keep the air in your home fresh, clean and healthy is more important than ever. That's why Serene comes packed with functions designed to keep you and your family as safe as possible.

SERENE SERIES 2

Gold Standard Protection
Serene's indoor and outdoor coils come with gold fin epoxy coated protection as standard, which is shown to prevent bacteria from breeding. Furthermore, it protects your system from corrosion in our harsh Australian conditions, and assists in the defrosting process.

DRUUESPTMT&OOPVO8LE0LD%EN FROM THE AIR

Super Ionizer technology
Serene's unique Super Ionizer technology releases positive and negative ions, which eliminate odour, dust, smoke and pollen particles, keeping your air fresh and healthy.

Breathe easy with the High Density Filter
Serene comes with a High Density Filter included as standard, shown to remove up to 80% of dust and pollen in the air.

16

Self Clean Mode
When you activate Self Clean, the indoor unit cleans itself with a four-stage cycle that minimises the build-up of dust and mould growth. The innovative technology washes away the dust, mould, and grease that may cause odours when it adheres to the evaporator by automatically freezing and then rapidly thawing the frost. The internal wind wheel then keeps operating to blow-dry the evaporator, thus preventing the growth of mould and keeping the inside clean and performing as efficiently as possible.
