DRIVES<br />

In the measurement unit (sensor<br />

electronics), the differential pressure<br />

signal is converted by the sensor to a<br />

signal proportional to the <strong>volume</strong> <strong>flow</strong>.<br />

Control signal w is conditioned in line with<br />

the operational <strong>volume</strong>tric <strong>flow</strong> setting<br />

V min<br />

/ V max<br />

as a target value signal.<br />

The instantaneous offset forms the<br />

control signal for the drive integrated. The<br />

current <strong>volume</strong>tric <strong>flow</strong> is available as<br />

an actual value signal for the display and<br />

control of slave VAV regulators.<br />

+ –<br />

The specially designed runtime logic of<br />

the VAV compact, in conjunction with an<br />

accurate differential pressure recorder,<br />

guarantees high control quality of the VAV<br />

box equipped with it.<br />

A choice between traditional control signal<br />

and MP bus can be made depending on<br />

application.<br />

1.4 VOLUME FLOW MEASUREMENT<br />

The basis for <strong>volume</strong>tric <strong>flow</strong><br />

measurement is a differential pressure<br />

pickup, usually fitted into the air duct in<br />

the form of an orifice gauge, a venturi<br />

nozzle or a differential pressure sensor.<br />

Several measurement methods have<br />

established themselves on the market for<br />

recording <strong>volume</strong>tric <strong>flow</strong>.<br />

Reliable and precise differential pressure<br />

measurement is the key to accurate<br />

<strong>volume</strong>tric <strong>flow</strong> regulation<br />

The measurement used by Belimo<br />

permits reliable mean value calculation<br />

even in unfavourable <strong>flow</strong> conditions.<br />

Every measurement sensor used for<br />

differential pressure recording has its<br />

own dynamic behaviour. The effect of this<br />

measurement body on the <strong>volume</strong>tric<br />

<strong>flow</strong> calculation is referred to as device<br />

constant “c”.<br />

The sensor element comprises a centrally<br />

located heating element with two<br />

temperature sensors positioned in the<br />

<strong>flow</strong> direction. Formed above the heating<br />

element is a temperature bell that is<br />

deformed by the air <strong>flow</strong> in the direction<br />

of <strong>flow</strong>. The resulting temperature<br />

difference between the two temperature<br />

sensors is a measure of the differential<br />

pressure at the sensor.
