Deadband Wireless Pneumatic Thermostat- WPT-800-DB Series
1
Overview
The Cypress Envirosystems Deadband Wireless Pneumatic Thermostat (WPT-DB)
retrofits an existing pneumatic thermostat to provide Direct Digital Control (DDC) like
zone control functionality with a deadband at a fraction of the time and cost without
disturbing occupants.
The WPT-DB enables remote monitoring of zone temperature, branch pressure,
remote control of deadbands, and programmable setback or setup of the pneumatic
HVAC systems. It also enables integration with utility Demand Response programs.
The WPT-DB can function either as a standalone system or can be integrated with an
existing Building Management System via BACnet/IP. As a result, the WPT-DB helps
a building owner and tenants save energy by implementing indoor temperature
policies, and reduces the maintenance cost of the legacy pneumatic HVAC systems.
