TRANSFORMER FAN SPEED CONTROLLER WITH MODBUS RTU COMMUNICATION PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The RTVS1 series of transformer fan speed controllers regulate the rotational speed of single-phase voltage controllable motors in five steps by varying the output voltage. They are equipped with auto-transformer(s) and feature Modbus RTU communication, TK monitoring for thermal motor protection.

Optional settings In automatic mode, a Sentera potentiometer with Modbus RTU communication can be connected to RTVS1. To obtain demand based fan speed control, RTVS1 can be combined with a Sentera HVAC sensor. The combination of RTVS1 with a Sentera HVAC transmitter allows you to control fan speed in function of temperature, relative humidity, carbon dioxide, air quality (TVOC) or carbon monoxide.

Set to 0 = OFF, when there is Modbus Timeout set, when the device encounters Timeout - RTVS1 enters STOP mode, output is 0. If the remote sensor is lost – device enters state 0 = OFF. Both communications lost, article goes to OFF.
In case of heavy pollution, clean with a non-aggressive product. In these circumstances the unit should be disconnected from the supply. Pay attention that no fluids enter the unit. Only reconnect it to the supply when it is completely dry. MIW-RTVS1-EN-000 - 03 / 11 / 2020 12 - 12 www.sentera.eu...
