Function
The fan coil unit is a recirculating air unit for cooling or
heating (2-pipe) or for cooling and heating (4-pipe) the air.
These fan coil units have been designed for installation in
sills in office and conference rooms, hotel rooms, hospi
tals and other closed rooms for room air treatment.
The fan sucks in ambient air via a heat exchanger, heating
or cooling the air and reintroducing it into the room.
Uniform distribution of the air across the entire fan is en
sured by a tangential fan impeller extending over the en
tire width. The heat exchanger is usually equipped with a
filter for protection.
Thermal energy transport to the heat exchanger is per
formed by water; water connection on the right or left.
If the cold water temperature drops in the cooling mode
below dew point of the air the condensate will be collected
by a condensate tray with possible connecting socket. For
reasons of hygiene, the unit should be dimensioned in a
way to ensure that no condensation occurs during stan
dard operation. For operation below dew point insulated
units are available.
Output is water-side controlled by valves.
The fan speed is controlled by a 0-10 V input signale to the
EC motor with low energy consumption.
For group controls a total of 5 units may be connected in
parallel.
With view to sizing, the most important data are the caloric
output, the sound power level and the air flow rate.
The units' caloric output is determined through the fan
speed, the water flow rate, and the valve setting which
may be controlled by a control device.
The units' sound power and the air flow rate are controlled
through the fan speed.
The use of a filter results, at the same speed level, in a re
duction of both the caloric output and the air flow rate
while the sound power level of the units is higher when in
creasing the fan speed.

Intended Use
The LTG fan coil unit VFC is intended for use indoors.
It is designed for indoor ambient temperatures of
+41…+104 °F and a maximum relative humidity of up to
90 % (non-condensing).
In order to ensure safe motor functioning the ambient
temperature when installed should not 104°F.
The maximum admissible water supply temperature is,
therefore, limited to +176 °F.
Any other operating conditions require the express and
written permission of LTG Aktiengesellschaft.
LTG Aktiengesellschaft does not assume responsibility for
any damages resulting from unintended use.
