Function

The VAV terminal unit is fitted with an effective pressure sensor for measuring the volume flow rate. The control components (attachments) include an effective pressure transducer that transforms the effective pressure into an electric signal, a controller, and an actuator; the control functions can be achieved with an Easy controller or with a Compact controller or with individual components (Universal or LABCONTROL). For most applications, the setpoint value comes from a room temperature controller. The controller compares the actual value with the setpoint value and alters the control signal of the actuator if there is a difference between the two values.

Specification text

Rectangular VAV terminal units for variable and constant air volume systems, suitable for supply or extract air, available in 39 nominal sizes. High volume flow rate control accuracy. Ready-to-commission unit which consists of the mechanical parts and the electronic control components. Each unit contains an averaging effective pressure sensor for volume flow rate measurement and damper blades. Factory mounted control components complete with wiring and tubing. Position of the damper blades indicated externally at the shaft extension. The damper blade is factory set to open position, which allows a ventilation airflow even without control; this does not apply to variants with defined safe position NC (normally closed).

Special features

  • Integral effective pressure sensor with 0.1 in measuring holes (resistant to dust and pollution)
  • Factory set-up or programming and aerodynamic function testing
  • Parameters can also later be set on the control component. Depending on the control component, an additional adjustment device may be necessary

 

Materials and surfaces

  • Casing made of galvanised sheet steel

  • Supply voltage 24 V AC/DC
  • Signal voltages 0 – 10 V DC
  • Possible override controls with external switches using volt free contacts: CLOSE, OPEN, qᵥmin and qᵥmax
  • Potentiometers with percentage scales to set the volume flow rates qᵥmin and qᵥmax without an adjustment device

  • Clearly visible external indicator light for signalling the functions: Set, not set, and power failure
  • Electrical connections with screw terminals
