The ASX Pressure control system uses the flexibility of our highly efficient EC motors and controllers in 
conjunction with accurate pressure measuring equipment and a versatile setpoint control unit to maintain a 
user-defined duct static pressure.

The system consists of the following three components:

NOTE:

  Fan must be sized appropriately for the system it is connected to as well as all intended system 

 configurations.

NOTE:

  The ACU can be used to manually control the output of the motor independently from the rest of the 

 

pressure control system. This is beneficial for system balancing as well as for fine tuning of the setpoint 

 

control system. Refer to the ASX ECM - ACU Control Specification Sheet for details on how to operate 

 

the ACU controller.

A direct drive ASX fan with 

Eco-Drive motor and Automation 

Control Unit (ACU).
