    The exodraft MEC24 is a Mechanical Exhaust Control used to monitor and maintain a constant pres- sure in a duct system. This is achieved by modulating the speed of a fan or ventilator. The MEC24 can be used with the exodraft models EFH, RSV and the EXHAUSTO models BESB and BESF. It can control the fan speed directly or via a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD).
