3.4 Fan control

3.4.1

Fan levels

Frequency controlled fans, EC-fans or fans with 2-step control work with the Optigo
to Low, Normal or High speed. The selection of the fan speed defines which time channel will be active in the
application.
The fans will always start directly with the desired speed.
The extract air fan and the supply air fan have individual start and stop delays which are normally set so that
the extract air fan is started before the supply air fan. If there are not enough digital outputs for individual
control, both fans will have to be started using the signal for the supply air fan, and the delay will be created
using an external time relay.
3.5 CO control
2
In applications with varying occupancy the fan speeds or mixing dampers can be controlled by the air quality
as measured by a CO sensor.
2
With the CO function it's possible to start and stop the fans, compensate the fan speed and in combination
2
with mixing damper let in more outdoor air depending on the CO
CO control settings.

3.6 Free cooling

This function is used during the summer to cool the building night-time using cool outdoor air, thereby
reducing the need for cooling during the day and saving energy.
Free cooling requires an outdoor sensor and either a room sensor or an extract air sensor.
Free cooling is only activated when all the start conditions below are fulfilled.
It is between 00:00 and 07:00 in the day (settable).
✓
The timer outputs for Normal speed, Extended running, Normal and External switch are Off.
✓
A timer channel will be On sometime during the next 24 hours.
✓
If an extract air sensor is selected and ALL the start conditions are fulfilled, free cooling is activated and will
run for 3 minutes (settable) to ensure that the temperature measurement when using an extract air sensor
reflects the corresponding room temperature.
If a room sensor is selected, the unit will not start free cooling as long as all the temperatures are not within
the start and stop temperature intervals.

When the function is activated with start/stop function and the CO
start value the fans will start at configured speed (default: normal speed), if they are not
already running.
