Mitsubishi Electric | Wall-Mounted Split System Air Conditioner 5.0kW Cooling AP Series | R32 Built-In Wi-Fi
The Mitsubishi Electric MSZ-AP50VGKD2KIT is a reverse-cycle wall-mounted split system rated 5.0 kW cooling and 6.0 kW heating. The kit pairs the MSZ-AP50VGKD2 indoor unit with the MUZ-AP50VGD2 outdoor unit on R32 refrigerant. The MSZ-AP50VGKD2KIT's indoor unit includes built-in Wi-Fi, so no separate adapter is needed.
At 5.0 kW cooling and 6.0 kW heating, the MSZ-AP50VGKD2KIT suits a large living area or an open-plan kitchen and dining space. Output modulates between 1.4 and 6.2 kW cooling and 1.4 to 8.0 kW heating. The zoned energy label gives it 4.5 stars cooling in the hot and cold zones and 4 in the average zone, with heating at 3.5 stars hot, 2.5 average and 2 cold. Indoor sound pressure runs from 28 to 49 dB(A) across five fan speeds.
Pipework is 6.35 mm liquid and 12.70 mm gas, with a 20 m maximum run and 12 m height difference. The outdoor unit is pre-charged with 1.0 kg of R32, covers pipe runs up to 15m, and has a maximum running current of 13.9 A. Installation must be carried out by an appropriately licensed technician.
Carton sizes and weights
- Indoor unit carton — 300 x 870 x 360 mm (H x W x D), 11.5 kg gross, 10.5 kg bare.
- Outdoor unit carton — 890 x 940 x 380 mm (H x W x D), 48.1 kg gross, 41 kg bare.
The combined gross weight is 59.6 kg, and the outdoor carton is larger at 940 mm wide and 890 mm tall. At 48.1 kg, the outdoor carton is a two-person lift. Check that the vehicle or trailer takes both cartons before collecting. Transport and store the outdoor unit upright, as laying it on its side or top risks equipment damage. Until installation, keep the system in a clean, dry, pest-free place to meet the warranty conditions.

Where to use
- Large living areas — 5.0 kW of cooling covers a lounge or an open-plan kitchen and dining space.
- Master bedrooms — the MSZ-AP50VGKD2KIT can heat a large room with 6.0 kW of heating through winter.
- Retrofit into existing rooms — a 20 m pipe run and 12 m height difference allow the outdoor unit to sit well away from the indoor head.
- Granny flats and extensions — the MSZ-AP50VGKD2KIT covers a separate dwelling from a single indoor head.
- Rooms needing app control — built-in Wi-Fi lets you switch the system on before the room is occupied.
The MSZ-AP50VGKD2KIT is not sized for whole-of-home duty at 5.0 kW cooling, and the indoor unit does not drop below 28 dB(A). Heating falls to 2 stars in the cold zone, so check the zone before specifying it for winter duty. Outdoor operation is limited to -10 to 46 deg C in cooling and -15 to 24 deg C in heating. Pipe runs beyond 20 m fall outside the published installation limits.
Confirm the final selection against the room, its orientation, and its insulation before ordering. Sparky Direct does not provide installation advice or assess suitability for a specific site. The warranty runs from the invoice date and is void if the system is not installed by a licensed electrician.
