Gurugram, May 2024.
Samsung,
India’s largest consumer electronics brand, today announced the launch of three
new refrigerators that ensure smarter living for Indian homes by helping
consumers customise their choices. The new refrigerators feature Samsung’s next
generation Artificial Intelligence-powered Inverter Compressor. The AI Inverter
Compressor, the heart of Samsung’snew refrigerators, transforms the traditional internal design by
optimizing motor and energy efficiency while saving electricity costs.
Samsung’s
eighth generation compressor brings AI to the fore - marking a revolutionary
change from its first compressor introduced 27 years back. The AI Inverter Compressor comes with a segment-leading
20-year warranty, guaranteeing long-lasting performance and energy efficiency.
The new AI refrigerators come in three models- the
809L 4-Door Flex French Door Bespoke Family Hub™ Refrigerator in Clean Charcoal
+ Stainless Steel colour, and the 650L 4-Door Convertible French Door models’
in Clean White in glass finish and Black Caviar in steel finish.
“Samsung is entering a new era of home
appliances with Bespoke AI, offering refrigerators featuring a high-efficiency
AI Inverter Compressor that delivers exceptional performance. By utilizing the AI
Energy Mode, consumers can achieve energy savings of up to 10%. Samsung remains
committed to developing AI Inverter Compressors and associated technologies,
ensuring that our refrigerators provide long-lasting reliability and reduced
energy consumption,” said Saurabh
Baishakhia, Senior Director, Digital Appliances Business, Samsung India.
The AI Inverter Compressor boasts noise levels
of less than 35 dB/A during a typical operation, comparable to the tranquillity
of a serene library. Unlike traditional fixed-speed compressors, this advanced
technology responds promptly to minor fluctuations in temperature. It generates
optimal cool air while minimizing energy usage by adaptively modifying the
motor velocity based on factors such as surrounding temperature, operational
mode, and even temperature shifts resulting from door openings and closings.
Samsung 809L Family Hub™ AI Refrigerator comes with
80 cm FamilyHub™ Screen with the innovative "AI Vision
Inside" feature, allowing users to effortlessly manage food inventory
through internal cameras that can identify 33 food items while AI technology
helps in providing recipe suggestions. The 650L Convertible French Door AI refrigerators
come with integrated Wi-Fi connectivity through which users can remotely
monitor and manage the refrigerator's settings.
Furthermore, to increase the energy efficiency
and durability of the AI Inverter Compressor, Samsung has been continuously
researching, developing, and improving the manufacturing process of the
internal motor, ball bearings, pistons, valves, and other components. As a
result, the AI Inverter Compressor has achieved an internal motor efficiency of
over 95 percent. Compared to the previous compressor, the new AI Inverter Compressor’s
energy efficiency in the low-speed operation range of 950-1,450rpm (the range
in which refrigerators typically operate) has also increased by more than 10 percent.
Furthermore, the new AI Inverter Compressor has more than quadrupled the
leveraged inertia during the motor’s operation compared to the conventional
model.
