INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS PREMA CEILING VOID ENERGY RECOVERY VENTILATION UNITS Controls The controller software is designed to handle four different applications. Each application has its own set of parameters (input value range, set points, p-band, min and max speeds, etc.) and control function. The application is pre-selected when manufactured but can be changed like the other parameters using the CTRL-DSP.
Duct air pressure (Control input signal 0-10VDC mapped to pressure sensor range) is controlled by a PID controller (Proportional, Integrating and Derivating). High pressure value gives low fan speed INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS Manual fan speed control PREMA CEILING VOID ENERGY RECOVERY VENTILATION UNITS The fan speed is set manually using the CTRL-DSP’s UP and DOWN buttons (resolution 1%).
