VAV SERIES

The VAV Series terminal units are stand alone microprocessor based controllers for either pressure independent (VAVI) 
or pressure dependent (VAVD) terminal box applications. 

Overview

A digital input is provided for an indoor air quality alarm. Analog inputs are provided for discharge air temperature and 
primary air temperature sensing. A two-wire serial interface is provided for the thermostat. The controller incorporates 
digital outputs in the form of triacs for fan start/stop and two heating stages or heating valve open/close.

The controller is based on L

ON

W

ORKS

 networking technology. It can be networked to a higher-level control system for 

monitoring and control applications.

Features

• On-board air-flow sensor (VAVI)
• Integral damper actuator
• Optional indoor air quality (IAQ) alarm input (contact closure)
• Optional discharge air temperature (DAT) monitoring
• Two stages of electric reheat or floating point or modulating 0-10V setpoint hot water reheat valves
• Option to use auxiliary local heat sources for first stage of heating
• Parallel or series fan
• Pressure dependent or pressure independent flow control
• Individual temperature setpoints for occupied/unoccupied heating
• Networked operation using L

ON

W

ORKS

 Technology

• Thermostat with space temperature, setpoint adjust, occupancy override
• Integrates with Multiplex Package Unit controller (MPU2)
• Integrates with Variable Air Volume Package Unit controller (VPU2)
• “Stand Alone Mode” for independent operation
• Indoor air quality compensation
• Selection between thermostat types: TS30x and 10K Precon type III thermistor
• Optional normally open dry contact occupancy sensor input
• Optional Primary Air Temperature sensor for use in "Stand Alone Mode"
• Automatic configuration with the Local Control Interface (LCI)
• Alarm/Event reporting
