Daikin JTKJ50TV16U Specifications
Daikin JTKJ50TV16U has the full load cooling capacity of 5 KW or 17100 BTU. Half load cooling capacity is 2.5 KW or 8550 BTU. But This capacity is expandable to maximum 6 KW or 20500 BTU. This is 15% Increase in capacity compared to a regular fixed speed 1.5-ton air conditioner. This is enough to cool a room of 150 square feet to 200 square feet easily. The power consumption full load is 1315 W. Power consumption half load is 418 W. Power consumption maximum is 1700 W. These figures suggest that this is a very efficient air conditioner.
ISEER (Indian seasonal energy efficiency ratio), which is the ratio of total cooling capacity to The total energy consumed While taking that different seasons into the account Specific to India. This is a single most accurate method of knowing the efficiency of the air conditioner. ISEER of this machine is 5.2. This makes it 5 star according to the current BEE( Bureau of Energy Efficiency) standard. This is very efficient even for a 5 Star machine.

Daikin JTKJ50TV16U Key Features
The main feature of Daikin JTKJ50TV16U Is that its compressor runs on inverter technology. Which means that its compressor can run at variable speeds. This means it can increase or decrease its capacity according to the load conditions. This results in Huge power saving, as most fixed speed air conditioners are designed to run with maximum load conditions in mind and takes full power even when less cooling is required. Inverter Technology also results in more powerful and uniform cooling as compressor does not turn off when the cooling is achieved rather it varies its speed to maintain a more uniform desired temperature.
Other key feature includes patented streamer discharge, indoor unit quiet operation, Coanda airflow, power chill operation and intelligent eye. Streamer discharge reduces unpleasant smell and Viruses in the room with the help of a plasma discharge comprising high-speed electrons. This technology helps in cleaning the air inside the room. Indoor unit quiet operation feature help in reducing the indoor unit noise level. Coanda Airflow feature helps in distributing the cool air uniformly throughout the room. Power chill operation feature provides immediate and quick relief from extreme heat conditions by running the fan and compressor at full speed for 20 minutes.
