<strong>TECHNICAL</strong> UPDATE<br />

Date: 25/07/2008 Sheet 2 of 24<br />

Indoor Unit<br />

OPTIONAL EXTRAS - ENERGY SAVING<br />

Electronically<br />

Commutated (EC) Fan<br />

Motor<br />

Sizes 6 - 60<br />

Backward curved impellers, direct drive centrifugal fan assemblies with integral<br />

rotor mounted motor which is statically and dynamically balanced for<br />

quiet operation.<br />

Designed for high corrosion resistance, the impellers are laser welded<br />

aluminium with a galvanised rotor and die cast aluminium EC power module.<br />

EC motors incorporate integrated electronics to convert AC power to DC for<br />

efficient and accurate speed control and are adjustable via the microprocessor<br />

display keypad.<br />

The fans offer maximum airflow performance while keeping sound levels to<br />

a minimum.<br />

The fans are mounted within a floorstand complete with adjustable feet, optional<br />

legs and floor tile lip. Height of the floorstand; please specify at order.<br />

EC motors are DC motors with integrated AC to DC conversion; this gives the<br />

flexibility of connecting to AC mains with the efficiency and simple speed control<br />

of a DC motor. The EC fan offers significant power reduction in comparison with<br />

equivalent AC fan at both full and modulated fan speeds. The inbuilt EC fan<br />

control module allows for fan speed modulation from 15-100%, a standard AC<br />

fans modulating range is typically 40-100% of full fan speed.<br />

The EC fan presents superior energy efficiency at full and reduced fan speed<br />

compared to the equivalent AC fan motor.<br />

Standard voltage regulated (VR) fan speed controllers offer a linear response.<br />

By comparison the EC fan is adjusted on demand via the unit microprocessor<br />

with precision, offering substantial energy savings. The following illustration<br />

shows a comparison of the typical power input required by each method.<br />

Energy Manager Analysis of system energy consumption can be monitored via a dedicated LCD<br />

display. Unit parameters can be adjusted via the unit microprocessor control to<br />

affect energy usage in line with the system need.<br />

CAUTION<br />

If Phase Rotation Protection and an Energy Manager unit are both<br />

required, the Energy Manager will require the addition of a Field Card,<br />

please contact Airedale.
