RESULT:

LabSystem

Clean room

Room pressure with CAV/VAV - Controller

Even with very low tolerances not suitable in airtight rooms (small room leakage) air volume, room volume and room leakage have strong impact on differential pressure

SOLUTION:

Room pressure with pressure controller CRP

Better than CAV/VAV - Controller but even not satisfying in airtight rooms (very small room leakage) be careful with high air volume and very small room leakage

Advantages of the VCP and room pressure control via bypass:

very high resolution of the actuator in the bypass. Controlling of the room pressure via actuator with Direct-Drive-Modus (no hysteresis, resolution < 0,5 ) avoids oscillating of the system multitasking system with one common microprocessor unit and internal communicating between air volume control device and pressure control device max. allowed range of 3 Pa always possible, even over different pressure steps suitable for controlling of safety laboratory class S1-S4 as well as clean room class A-D for controlling laboratory class S4 it is mandatory for safety reasons to use redundant systems

More advantages of the VCP:

LabSystem

Clean room

sudden loss of room pressure (open of door or window) will be recongised and the damper gets freezed for a certain time (max. 20 s) no door contacts needed very precise and stable room pressure control system room pressure damper (bypass) always between 2080 % => good control position complete parametrising via service module SVM100 or PC-software PC2500 suitable for safety laboratory with very high airtight doors and rooms (e.g. animal laboratory) suitable for supply or exhaust air systems BMS controlling via network. LON, BACnet or Modbus available
