Local air conditioner PAC 3800 S

3-in-1 air conditioner for powerful cooling, refreshing ventilation and pleasant dehumidification

Finally cooling down!

If a lot of heat has built up in the flat or in the office, we quickly feel drained and uncomfortable. This is why you should bank on the reliable cooling power of the local air conditioner PAC 3800 S during the next heat wave. Whether in living or working spaces, in hotel or fitness rooms or in boutiques – with a cooling capacity of 3.8 kW / 13,000 Btu/h, the compact comfort air conditioner is ideally suited for rooms to a size of 50 m2 or 125 m3. The powerful cooling device also convinces with its functions: With the IR remote control, a timer function and a night mode, the elegant air conditioner in white colour will provide maximum convenience.

Target value preselection for continuously maintaining the target temperature in the room

The integrated thermostat provides the current room temperature at one glance on the LED display. To provide for pleasant cooling, simply set your desired temperature value from 16°C to 31°C, and the device will start cooling down the room air as you wish. The air conditioner will now maintain the target temperature you selected. Once the desired room temperature has been reached, the refrigerating compressor automatically switches off. Only when the temperature starts increasing again, the device restarts the cooling process. This automatic thermostat control is the reason why the air conditioner with energy efficiency category A operates in a particularly power-saving and economical way.

With integrated fan

In addition, the compact all-rounder is equipped with a 3-stage fan function. With a flow rate of up to 450 m³/h, you provide for air circulation and fresh breeze in the room – even if the refrigerating compressor has not been activated. If desired, you can activate the swing function to evenly distribute the air current in the room. To filter out fluff, dust and animal hair from the breathing air as well, an easy-to-clean air filter is located on the back of the device.

Moist air will no longer be a problem!

The air often is not only too warm, but also unpleasant and muggy. The dehumidification function of the 3-in-1 air conditioner PAC 3800 S provides help: With its dehumidification performance of 1.5 l per hour, the device actively extracts humidity from oppressive and muggy air. The result is a noticeably more agreeable room climate. In addition, dehumidification prevents unhealthy mould growth. Due to internal condensate recycling the collection container only rarely needs to be emptied: The condensed water is reused for cooling the condenser by means of an intelligent recycling system. Consequently, the majority of water simply evaporates.

Can be used throughout the year, not only in summer!

The 3 operating modes coolingventilation and dehumidification can be used separately. This allows you to use the multifunctional air conditioner PAC 3800 S on 365 days a year – for the ideal feel-good climate!

Environmentally friendly refrigerant R290

Propane (R290) as environmentally friendly refrigerant in air conditioning systems

Every year, several million tons of harmful CO2 emissions (greenhouse gas) are emitted to the atmosphere due to synthetic refrigerants. For this reason, the utilization of alternative refrigerants has become one of our key objectives. By using propane (R290) as refrigerant this air conditioner makes a valuable contribution to protecting our climate.

The natural refrigerant propane (R290) is an organic compound belonging to the group of hydrocarbons. Unlike synthetic refrigerants the environmentally friendly propane (R290) comes with neither ozone depletion potential (ODP = 0) nor a noteworthy greenhouse effect (GWP = 3).

Additional bonus for the environment: Owing to its excellent thermodynamic properties, propane (R290) is a particularly energy-efficient refrigerant thereby additionally reducing your energy costs. 

Flexibly proceeding from one room to the next

Whether in living room, bedroom or work space – if you like to set up the local air conditioner PAC 3800 S in another room for some time, it can be conveniently moved thanks to its smooth-running wheels. Unlike permanently installed air conditioning systems, a local air conditioner can be used wherever cooling is currently needed – no need for drilling, screwing and using wall plugs. All you have to do is to fix the exhaust air hose (included in the scope of delivery) in a window opening or doorway, and you can directly begin to cool down the room! In order to make sure there will be no warm air entering the cooled room through windows or doors, Trotec offers the AirLock window and door seals as an optional accessory. This enables you to cool even more efficiently. Further will be provided to you in the info box below.

Remote control included

All functions and settings of the air conditioner PAC 3800 S cannot only be made via the LED control panel but also by means of the remote control – e.g. conveniently from your sofa or office chair.

Automatic switch-on and -off via timer

The practical 24-hour timer function allows you to switch the device on and off individually after a preset number of hours. As a result, the air conditioner switches off automatically, e.g. in the office in the evening. If you like to wake up to refreshing coolness in the morning instead, you just set the timer to the respective start time in advance. Perfect for a refreshing start to the day!

Night mode function against poor sleep during heatwaves

We often sleep badly if it's too hot. To ensure that you can go to sleep and have a relaxed good night's rest even in summer nights that are way too warm, the comfort air conditioner PAC 3800 S is provided with a night mode that allows to gradually increase the temperature. After one hour the preset temperature will automatically increase by 1°C, after another hour again by 1°C. This temperature level will be kept throughout the entire night. Tip: If required, the timer function can be additionally used to switch off the device automatically during the night.

Swing function for even air distribution

The optional on-demand swing function provides even cooling throughout the room. The air outlet continuously swings from the bottom to the top, ensuring that the cold air can better distribute.

Focus on performance, quality and comfort: With the 3-in-1 air conditioner PAC 3800 S, you'll enjoy an all-round pleasant room climate beyond the summer!

Calculation of the required cooling capacity

Quick calculation of the required cooling capacity for living and office spaces

Find out how to easily calculate the cooling capacity required for your living and office spaces.

How much power is required to cool a room? The rule of thumb: Every cubic metre of room volume requires a cooling capacity of 30 watts (1 m3 = 30 W).

Using this blanket value the required cooling capacity can be determined quickly and easily for every room size. Example: Assuming a room with 50 m² of floor space and a room height of 2.5 m.
The resulting calculation reads as follows:

Room volume calculation:
50 m² of floor space x 2.5 m ceiling height = a room volume of 125 m³

Calculation of the cooling capacity required for the room volume:
125 m³ cubature x 30 watts of cooling capacity = required cooling capacity of 3,750 watts

Conversion from watt to kilowatt:
3,750 watts = 3.8 kW

Result: In a room with 50 m2 of floor space and a height of 2.5 m you need an air conditioner with a cooling capacity of 3.8 kW – such as the PAC 3800 S.

This is only a rough calculation formula for living and office spaces with modern insulation (passive house standard), though. The required cooling capacity further depends on the room's "thermal load": For selecting an appropriate air conditioner, the factors of insolation, insulation, window dimensions, the number of persons as well as the heat sources play an equally important role.

AirLock window and door seals

ACCESSORY TIP: AirLock window seals prevent warm air from streaming back into the room you are trying to cool. 

The warm air is discharged through an air conditioner's exhaust air hose and thus through a window into the open air. In order to keep the warm air from streaming right back into the room through the window gap we recommend using AirLock window or door seals.

AirLock 100 window seal

Suitable for windows with a maximum perimeter of up to 4 metres is the window seal AirLock 100. The hose can be attached to any type of window (casement, bottom-hung or skylight windows). With the Velcro® tape mounting between window and frame only takes a few steps. This ensures an optimal cooling efficiency in the room and substantially reduces the consumption costs of your air conditioner.

AirLock 1000 door and window seal

Also perfect for floor-to-ceiling windows or balcony and patio doors.

The convenient door and window seal AirLock 1000 was specifically designed for sealing floor-to-ceiling windows or balcony and patio doors – it is the only window seal on the market that has a perimeter of up to 5.6 metres. The AirLock 1000 can be used for both one- or two-hose devices. Further information on all available AirLock versions is provided here.

TFH 2000 E with turbo spin technology
TFH 2000 E for an even temperature distribution

A boost of freshness: Enjoy maximum refreshment anywhere in the room! 

Do you want to additionally support the effect your air conditioner has? In order to really distribute the cool air into every last corner of the room we recommend using the powerful fan TFH 2000 E with turbo spin technology. The extremely compressed turbulent air flow gushes out of the TFH 2000 E as tornado-like air column that revolves around itself and advances deep into the room. The air current breaks through warm and cold room air zones mixing it all up. The exiting air current encounters the opposite wall or the ceiling and from there is deflected to all sides.

In a constant circulation the air returns to the rear of the fan flowing along the side walls and the ceiling. It is sucked in once more to start a new cycle. This effective turbo spin method ensures maximum circulation and mixing of the room air. The temperature difference between cold air near the ground and warm air just beneath the ceiling is substantially reduced, instead the air temperature in the entire room is noticeably evened out.
