Short Description
The Daikin FTXM46W 4.6kW Split System pairs 4.6kW rated cooling with 4.7kW rated heating. This reverse-cycle R32 inverter system includes built-in Wi-Fi, air-treatment technology and a white indoor unit, providing connected year-round comfort for an appropriately sized Australian room.
Product Overview
The Daikin FTXM46W 4.6kW Split System combines indoor unit FTXM46WVMA with outdoor unit RXM46WVMA. Its inverter system varies output between 0.9–5.5kW in cooling and 1.0–6.7kW in heating to respond to changing room demand.
Homeowners gain smartphone-ready control and comfort-focused airflow, while trade customers receive a verified unit match, R32 refrigerant and clearly documented pipework limits. Final capacity suitability must be established from heat load, insulation, glazing, orientation and climate—not floor area alone.

Key Features
Built-in Wi-Fi
Integrated wireless connectivity supports control through Daikin’s compatible mobile interface, subject to network, app and account requirements.
Streamer air treatment
Streamer technology uses plasma discharge to assist with decomposition of selected substances captured by the filter under Daikin’s stated test conditions.
Advanced purification
The filtration system is designed to capture airborne particles and support cleaner recirculated air. It does not replace outdoor-air ventilation.
Comfort airflow
Airflow control helps distribute conditioned air through the room while five fan steps, quiet and automatic modes provide useful operating flexibility.
Quiet operation
The verified indoor sound range is 43/26 cooling; 43/26 heating dBA at high/super-low settings, supporting use in sound-sensitive spaces when correctly installed.
Efficient inverter system
The inverter compressor varies output with demand to maintain comfort, while R32 refrigerant supports the current system design and performance.
Ideal Applications
- Bedrooms, offices or living spaces after professional heat-load assessment
- Homes seeking reverse-cycle heating and cooling from one wall-mounted system
- Projects requiring built-in Wi-Fi and R32 refrigerant
