3kW-11kW Variable Speed Fan Control Panel

The Variable Speed Fan Control Panel has the following features:

• Industrial PLC logic-driven system

• Duty fan and standby fan control

• The Variable Frequency Drives (VFD) within the control panel allow for multiple fan speed settings to be programmed for increased flexibility

• Inputs for external firefighters’ key switch control (auto/off, auto/boost)

• Simple hard-wired activation or more involved network signal activation

• Multiple panels can be networked together

• Reversible fan operation if required for twin shaft/triple shaft push/pull systems

• The facility to monitor up to 50 pressure sensors to prevent excessive pressure in the activated zone

• Ability to power single-phase environmental fans via a contactor or three-phase

with optional internal Variable Frequency Drive

• Ductwork damper control - Single 230 Vac Power Close (PC)/Spring Open (SO): Single or Double 24 Vdc Power Close (PC) Power Open (PO)

• System state indication on panel face via LEDs

• Activation/healthy Volt Free Contacts (VFC) for BMS monitoring

• Fan panel status can be viewed via an associated SHEVTEC repeater panel

• 4 activation inputs to provide more accurate speed control within different building zones

• Ability to communicate with Cloudlink systems for remote monitoring

• Optional build to BS8519 ATS Compliant with generator start-up signal
