SEAT 1080 m3/h The CONTROL E-SEAT controls the air extraction rate of a fume hood. It sends a 0/10v voltage to vary the frequency of a motor. A rotary sensor measures the height of the window sash and thus regulates the air flow. A speed sensor determines the flow rate, and an audible and visual alarm is triggered in case of insufficient speed, excessive sash height, or other malfunctions.
The backlit display shows face velocity, flow rate and system status. The B4 and B6 buttons are used to navigate through the menus and can also be configured to activate different functions. If the controller is connected to a CAPTUR E-SEAT controller, it can also be operated remotely.

The remote HMI allows you to control the operation of the system and to make adjustments for each of the operating modes. Thanks to the MODBUS link, several CONTROL E-SEAT can be interconnected and the installation of a CAPTUR E-SEAT controller allows all air flows in the laboratory to be controlled.
2.2. Positioning on the fume hood Position sensor attached to the glass or counterweight Counterweight Setting up the HMI The HMI can be attached with screws to the top and bottom of the housing. First install the lower screw on the support, letting it protrude so that the HMI slides over it, then remove the upper cover with a small flat screwdriver to screw the upper part.
2.3. Installation Tips • Do not install the speed sensor in/on the extraction tube above the fume cupboard • Do not install the speed sensor in a fume hood dead zone • The speed sensor must not be subjected to aeraulic disturbances. •...

Wiring rules: The 0-10V links between the controller and the drive or motorized damper must be made with shielded cables. All low-voltage control cables (0-10V, linear sensor, probe, HMI, MODBUS link, etc.) must not run next to the power cables (230V, 400V power supply and motor and inverter cable). Cables connecting drives to motors can generate electromagnetic disturbances, these cables must be shielded, and the shield must be connected to the drive's grounding bracket.
