⑦ Rotary knob

The volume flow controller is a mechanical self-powered unit and works without external power supply. A damper blade with low-friction bearings is adjusted by aerodynamic forces such that the set volume flow rate is maintained within the differential pressure range. The aerodynamic forces of the airflow create a closing torque on the damper blade. The bellows expand and increase this force while at the same time acting as an oscillation damper. The closing force is countered by a leaf spring that unrolls over a cam plate. The shape of the cam plate is such that a change in the differential pressure leads to an adjustment of the damper blade in a way that the volume flow rate is maintained almost exactly. As a result, the volume flow rate remains constant within narrow tolerances.

Efficient commissioning

The volume flow rate setpoint value can be set quickly and easily using the rotary knob on the external scale; no measurements are required. The advantage over flow adjustment dampers is that there is no need for repeat measurements or adjustments during commissioning. If the system pressure changes, e.g. by opening or closing a string when using flow adjustment dampers, the volume flow rates in the entire system changes. This is not the case with the use of mechanically independent volumetric flow controllers. A mechanical self-powered controller reacts immediately and adjusts the damper blade such that the set constant volume flow rate is maintained.

Nominal sizes	200 × 100 – 600 × 600 mm
Volume flow rate range	39 – 3500 l/s or 140 – 12600 m³/h
Volume flow rate control range	Approx. 25 to 100 % of the nominal volume flow rate
Scale accuracy	± 4 %
Minimum differential pressure	50 Pa
Maximum differential pressure	1000 Pa
Operating temperature	10 to 50 °C

Quick sizing tables provide a good overview of the room sound pressure levels that can be expected. The first selection criteria for the nominal size are the actual volume flow rates q_ᵥmin and q_ᵥmax. Intermediate values can be interpolated. Precise results and spectral data can be calculated with our Easy Product Finder design programme. The quick sizing tables are based on generally accepted attenuation levels. If the sound pressure level exceeds the required level, a larger air terminal unit and/or a silencer or acoustic cladding are required.

Installation and commissioning

Vertical air ducts: CAV-Controller in any installation orientation
Horizontal air ducts: CAV-Controller must be installed so that the operating side is positioned to the side (right/left) or below
Equipotential bonding to be provided by others
Volume flow rate setpoint can be set from outside by rotary knob
Loosen and lock the rotary knob with hexagonal socket screw
No repeat measurements or adjustments required during commissioning
EN-Ex-D: For constructions with acoustic cladding, ducts on the room side should have cladding up to the acoustic cladding of the controller

Upstream conditions
The volume flow rate accuracy Δq_v applies to straight upstream. Bends, junctions or a narrowing or widening of the duct cause turbulence that may affect measurement. Duct connections, e.g. branches off the main duct, must comply with EN 1505. Free air intake only with a straight duct section of 1.5B or 1.5H upstream.

Space required for commissioning and maintenance
Sufficient space must be clear near to allow for commissioning and maintenance. If necessary, inspection openings of sufficient size are required.
