LINDINVENT DCV-FLb Airflow Unit 2-Stage Controller
Introduction
- DCV-FLb is part of Lindinvent’s series of smart and installation-efficient dampers for protective ventilation or on-demand control of indoor climate at workplaces.
FUNCTION
DCV-FLb consists of a damper with a measuring unit, a damper motor, and a regulator. The device can quickly and safely switch between a fixed normal flow (workflow) and a lower minimum flow (standby mode).
- Suitable for controlling equipment where the air ow does not need a continuous demand control (it could be in a kitchen where a switch should trigger the higher or lower air ow)
- Timer function which after a set time restores the airflow to the normal flow (working mode)
- Connection for user panel FLOCHECK F with button selection to be able to switch between working modes
- Reports measured airflow via CAN
- Connected via Node-ID to a local area network (CAN) for stable communication with other controllers
- Gateway NCE is connected to the local network for access and communication via a parent system
- The controller is programmable and its parameters can be read or set locally via handset or centrally over the network
- Equipped with Bluetooth® for communication via mobile application LINDINSIDE
Circular or Rectangular
The circular version (Ø100-500 mm) is delivered as a complete module with the constituent parts connected and ready for installation as a unit. DCV-FLb Rectangular is ordered as a set of parts to be assembled on-site. DCV-FLb in circular design is available in the database for MagiCad. DCV-FLb rectangular drawn as damper JSPM and measuring unit SMRD.
flow measurement and airflow
- Circular & Rectangular
- Measurement range: 0.5 – 6.0 m/s
- Maximum range: 0.2 – 7.0 m/s
- Accuracy: ± 5 % or at least ± x l/s
- (where x = The channel area in dm2)
- Airfl ow calculation (q): q = k * √ Δp [l/s]
k-factor Rectangular
- Calculate k as follows:
- k = 749 * A where A = Width(W) * Height(H) where measures W and H in meters
- An example: SMRD 500×200 = 749 * 0,5 * 0,2 = 74,9
k-factor Cirkular
- The k-factor can be read from the damper or the table in the product description for SPMF.
Flow range per damper size DCV-FLb Circular
- Flow range [l/s] for each size of SPMF.
