  • SPECIFICATION TEXT

  • RELATED PRODUCTS

The VAV terminal unit is fitted with two effective pressure sensors for measuring the volume flow rates, one in the cold air flow and one in the total air flow. The control components (attachments) include two effective pressure transducers that transform the effective pressure into an electric signal, two controllers, and two actuators; as Compact controller or with individual components. In most cases, the setpoint value for the dual duct terminal unit comes from a room temperature controller. The room temperature controller administers the cold air volume flow controller and indicates the setpoint value for the cold air flow rate between 0 and a maximum volume flow qᵥmax. The controller compares the actual value with the setpoint value and alters the control signal of the damper actuator if there is a difference between the two values. The warm/overall


controller is set to the minimum volume flow rate qᵥmin and controls the damper blade in the heat duct. As a consequence, a corresponding proportion of warm air is added. As the demand for cooling increases, the warm air damper blade closes such that eventually only cold air flows. An integral attenuator reduces the noise that is created by the restriction of the airflow. The airflow velocity at the room end is, due to the larger rectangular cross section, about half the velocity in the circular duct.


 

Volume flow rate range

50 – 2108 l/s or 210 – 7591 m³/h

Volume flow rate control rangeApprox. 30 to 100 % of the nominal volume flow rate
Minimum differential pressure

Up to 202 Pa (without secondary silencer TS)

Maximum differential pressure1000 Pa
Operating temperature10 to 50 °C


 


Quick sizing tables provide a good overview of the minimum differential pressures, the volume flow rate accuracy and the room sound pressure levels that can be expected. Intermediate values may be achieved by interpolation.

The sound power levels for calculating the sound pressure levels were measured in the TROX laboratory according to DIN EN ISO 5135 - see "Basic information and nomenclature".

Precise results and spectral data for all control components can be calculated with our Easy Product Finder design program. The first selection criteria for the nominal size are the actual volume flow rates qvmin and qvmax.


Volume flow rate ranges and minimum differential pressure values
The minimum differential pressure of VAV terminal units is an important factor in designing the ductwork and in rating the fan including speed control. A sufficient pressure differential must be ensured under all operating conditions across the regulator (Δpt,min) for all terminal units. The measurement points for fan speed control must be selected accordingly. The volume flow rates given for VAV terminal units depend on the nominal size and on the control component (attachment) that is installed.

Installation and commissioning

  • Horizontal (return edges of the casing with suspension holes at the top) and vertical installation orientation
  • Spigots for warm and cold air arranged at an angle of 60° (TVM-S) or 90° (TVM)
  • Return edges of the casing with drilled holes suitable for threaded rods


Upstream conditions

The volume flow rate accuracy Δqᵥ applies to a straight upstream section of the duct. Bends, junctions or a narrowing or widening of the duct cause turbulence that may affect measurement. Duct connections, e.g. branches off the main duct, must comply with EN 1505. Some installation situations require straight duct sections upstream. The upstream conditions apply primarily to the duct connection at the cold air spigot. Since the hot air spigot does not contain a sensor, the upstream section here has no effect on the volume flow rate accuracy; however, unfavourable upstream sections can also lead to increased sound pressure levels.
