- Page 2 ESCRIPTION General Description The TRA-F12x-A is a communicating electronic fan coil controller that controls the room temperature. It supports motorized valves and 1- or 3-speed fans in 2-pipe and 4-pipe fan coil units (heating or cooling). Additional inputs can be used for external temperature sensor, room occupancy (motion) detection and more.
