Fan Controller regulates RPM according to real-time demand.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet News) — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 08:26:57 -0500

To ensure required linear air velocity is maintained despite external influences, C-600 controls and modulates fan RPM based on real-time air velocity and/or temperature measurements. User-programmable air velocity and temperature set points are leveraged to increase or decrease fan RPM, and I²C- or UART-based communication to host system can relay real-time information. If cooling fan is unable to generate desired flow requirement, controller initiates low-flow alarm to system.

Hybrid Control regulates condensing/non-condensing boilers.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet News) — Fri, 01 May 2009 08:27:45 -0500

Mini-MOD-CNC automatically mixes and matches non-condensing boiler operation and condensing boiler operation to optimize efficiency of combined (hybrid) system. It also allows for mixed control of modulating and staging boilers, since condensing boilers typically have modulating burners and non-condensing boilers typically have staging or on/off burners. Control automatically switches to high mass boilers when building heat requirements approach design loads.
