Control components for VAV terminal unit with dynamic transducer and analogue and MP-Bus interface

Compact device for use with VAV terminal units

  • Controller, effective pressure transducer and actuator in one casing
  • Use in ventilation and air conditioning systems, only with clean air
  • Operation either with analogue interface or MP-Bus communication
  • Suitable for constant and variable volume flow rates and qvmin/qvmax switching
  • Activation of override controls, e.g. via external wiring
  • Volume flow rates qvmin and qvmax are set in the factory and saved in the controller
  • Modification of operating parameters by hand-held setting unit, PC software as well as smartphone and tablet app (TROX FlowCheck app)

General information

Application

  • All-in-one control devices for VAV terminal units
  • Dynamic effective pressure transducer, control electronics and actuator combined in a single casing
  • For use with clean air only
  • Standard filtration in comfort conditioning systems allows for using the controller in the supply air without additional dust protection.
  • Choice of various control options based on setpoint value default setting
  • The room temperature controller, central BMS, air quality controller or similar units control the variable volume flow control by specifying the setpoint values via a communication interface or analogue signal
  • Override controls for activating qvmin, qvmax, shut-off, OPEN position via MP-Bus or switch / relay possible
  • Use service tool ZTH-EU, PC-Tool and the TROX FlowCheck app to configure the controller and the communication parameters

 

With heavy dust levels in the room

  • Install suitable extract air filters upstream, as a partial volume flow is routed through the transducer for volume flow rate measurement

 

If the air is contaminated with dust, fluff or sticky components

  • Use an expansion module with static effective pressure transducer, e.g. XD0 (analogue interface) or BUSN (with MP-Bus interface)



Control strategy

  • The volume flow controller works independent of the duct pressure
  • Differential pressure fluctuations do not result in permanent volume flow rate changes
  • To prevent the control from becoming unstable, a dead band is allowed within which the damper blade does not move
  • The flow rate range for the controller is set in the factory
    • qvmin: minimum volume flow rate
    • qvmax: maximum volume flow rate
  • Operating parameters and signal voltage ranges are set in the factory according to the order code. They can later be changed with the service tools.


Interface



Communication interface for the volume flow rate setpoint and actual value, damper blade position and error status

  • Analogue interface with adjustable signal voltage range

① Effective pressure transducer

② Actuator

③ Volume flow controller

④ Setpoint value signal

 


VAV terminal units control the volume flow in a closed loop, i.e. measurement – comparison – correction. The volume flow rate is measured via the effective pressure. This is done via an effective pressure sensor. An integrated differential pressure transducer converts the effective pressure into a voltage signal. The volume flow rate actual value is available as a voltage signal. The factory setting is such that 10 V DC always corresponds to the nominal flow rate (qvNom). The volume flow rate setpoint value comes from a higher-level controller (e.g. room temperature controller, air quality controller, central BMS). Variable volume flow control results in a value between qvmin and qmax. It is possible to override the room temperature control, e.g. by a complete shut-off of the duct. The controller compares the differential pressure setpoint value to the actual value and controls the actuator accordingly if there is a difference.

Product details

Analogue interface 0 – 10 V DC or 2 – 10 V DC
The analogue interface can be set for signal voltage range 0 – 10 V DC or 2 – 10 V DC using the service tools. The assignment of the setpoint value or actual value of the volume flow rate to the voltage signal is shown in the characteristic line displays. 




Setpoint value default setting
Variable operation:

  • In the variable operating mode, the setpoint value setting is set at cable wire Y with an analogue signal
  • The selected signal voltage range 0 – 10 V or 2 – 10 V DC is assigned to the set volume flow rate range qvmin – qvmax
  • Volume flow rate range qvmin – qvmax is set in the factory according to the order code
  • Subsequent adjustment of qvmin or qvmax is possible using service tools, TROX FlowCheck App, adjustment device ZTH-EU or PC-Tool

 

Constant value mode:

  • In the constant value mode operating mode, an analogue signal is not required at cable wire Y
  • The set flow rate constant value qvmin is used
  • Volume flow rate qvmin is set in the factory according to the order code
  • Subsequent adjustment of qvmin is possible using service tools, TROX FlowCheck App, adjustment device ZTH-EU or PC-Tool



Actual value as feedback for monitoring or tracking control

  • The actual volume flow rate measured by the controller can be tapped as a voltage signal at cable wire U in the default setting
  • The selected signal voltage range 0 – 10 V DC or 2 – 10 V DC is mapped to the volume flow rate range 0 – qvNom
  • The actual value output U can be reconfigured by others to output the damper position
  • Selected signal voltage range 0 - 10 V DC or 2 - 10 V DC is then mapped to the damper blade position 0% (CLOSED) - 100% (OPEN).




Override control

For special operating situations, the volume flow controller can be put in a special operating mode (override control). The following modes are possible: control qvmin, control qvmax, damper blade in the OPEN position, damper blade CLOSED. Override control can be activated by:

  • A suitable connection at signal input Y as per the connection diagrams through connection with external switching contacts/relays. OPEN and CLOSED are only available if the controller is supplied with alternating current (AC).
  • Service tools such as ZTH-EU, PC-Tool or TROX Flow-Check app are activated
  • A bus timeout monitoring is activated. (only in MP-Bus operation)
  • A control signal at signal input Y is activated (only override control CLOSED). See the following table (only in operation with analogue setpoint value)




Override control CLOSED via control signal on control signal Y

The override control CLOSE can also be activated by observing certain conditions with the command signal. The following table summarises the boundary conditions.

Y > 0 V DC

Y > 2.44 V DC

Y > 0.1 – 2 V DC: qvmin



Y > 2 – 10 V DC: qvmin – qvmax

Y > 0.5 – 2 V DC: qvmin



Y > 2 – 10 V DC: qvmin – qvmax

Notes:

1 Activation of control operation with 0 –10 V and qvmin set to = 0:

The applicable volume flow rate range depends on the basic unit (TVJ/TVT: 20 – 100% of qvnom; all other basic units: 10 – 100 % of qvnom). This means that setpoint defaults can be achieved only from 2 V DC (with TVJ/TVT) or 1 V DC (with other basic units).

2 Shut-off voltage 0.1 V DC or 0.5 V DC:

If there is a possibility or risk that the 0.1 V setpoint may not be undershot on a system (DDC output or long cable length), the shut-off voltage can be changed to 0.5 V with PC-Tool. This is only possible with signal voltage range 2 – 10 V DC.

Note on mode setting 0.1 V DC or 0.5 V DC

If there is a possibility or risk that the 0.1 V setpoint may not be undershot on a system (DDC output or long cable length), the shut-off voltage can be changed to 0.5 V with PC-Tool. This is only possible with signal voltage range 2 – 10 V DC.


 

 

Digital communication interface MP bus

General information


MP bus is not an open system, but manufacturer-dependent bus system for which Belimo and its partner companies provide components and software. Examples include the TROX XAIR-ZMO-MP zone module and software for the X-AIRCONTROL room control system, also the UK24xxx Belimo gateways and the fan optimiser.


MP bus allows you to have setpoint defaults and override controls preset and to read out damper positions and volume flow rates. As for the network, any topology can be used: star, ring, line, tree and hybrid topologies.


Neither special cables nor terminal resistors are required for the wiring, but the cable lengths are limited and depend on:


  • the combined performance data of the connected MP devices
  • whether AC 24 V or DC 24 V voltage is used
  • the cable cross section

Example: MP bus with 5 LMV-D3-MP compact controllers on 24 V AC supply. Total power rating: 5 × 4 VA = 20 VA.


  • A cable with 0.75 mm2 cross section must not be longer than 28 m.
  • A cable with 1.5 mm2 cross section must not be longer than 54 m.

For more information on MP buses see the Belimo documentation at https://www.belimo.com.


 


 


VAV compact controller with MP bus


Control component BC0 is fitted with an MP bus communication interface and can be interconnected with up to 8 TROX/Belimo MP devices (damper actuators, valve actuators, VAV controllers) on a Belimo MP bus. The controller on the MP bus receives its control signal from the higher-level central BMS so that the volume flow rate setpoint can be achieved.


MP bus mode starts automatically as soon as the control component is assigned an MP address with a service tool. A standard Compact controller with an MP address becomes a bus-compatible system controller with a wide range of additional benefits.


MP bus requires that the U connection is used. The U connection can then no longer be used for analogue actual value feedback.
