To increase the market share of the AC (air conditioning) this year, LG Electronics Indonesia (LGEI) launched a new product called Terminator Inverter. This product is claimed to be able to kill the mosquito Aedes aegypti (dengue fever) that carries dengue virus, which is harmful to humans.
Not only that, AC Inverters Terminator also has a trimmer technology becomes more efficient electric power. "Our products are now following the trend," said Head of Residential AC LGEI Siswandi Andry, Tuesday (9 / 8).
Previously, LG already has air conditioning products that can kill mosquitoes, but not equipped with electric power trimmer technology. "This product is to be the only one who can kill the mosquitoes at the same time could cut electric power," said Andry.
He explained that the AC has a technology that allows the system power consumption low. When the inverter technology is active, then the air will react with maximum electric power. After the temperature reached the air conditioner operates with minimum electrical power. "This technology enables power saving of up to 60% of the ordinary air-conditioning," he said.
While the technology that can kill the mosquito Aedes Aegpyti it by using ultrasonic waves of 30 kHz-100 kHz which disrupt the function of a mosquito antenna as receiving sensory stimuli. Mosquitoes in the room it will be uncomfortable because of the disruption of balance. "In six to seven hours of the mosquito will die," said Andry.
According to Andry, the use of existing technology in Terminator The inverter is not harmful to humans. Surviving AC technology it is believed will boost sales of LG air conditioner in the second half. In addition, the presence of AC is expected to reduce the mosquito population. This product is priced at Rp 3.7 million per unit (1 PK) and Rp 4.6 million (1.5 OD). In this second semester, Andry hopes to sell 20,000 units of the upper middle class segment.
