Open the catalog to page 3Parameterization of the VAV application The OEM generally provides the basic configuration to VAV compact controllers, especially the parameters for nominal flow (Vnom), the opening direction, and the box coefficient (Vn). The setting of all other parameters depends on the actual application and is usually defined by the ventilation planner or the systems integrator. The following parameters must be checked or set prior to commissioning: 3) Value used for displaying / not used for volume flow control loop Operating mode “Volume flow control” Variable air volume (VAV) control The operating point...
Open the catalog to page 4The following parameters are usually checked and set by the systems integrator to achieve the right level of bus traffic generated by the actuator or to define the behavior in case of communication interruption. Parameters in the group “advanced” can be left unchanged unless a special configuration is required. Parameter group “Standard”: Parameter group “Advanced”: Siemens Building Technologies

Open the catalog to page 9Internal diagrams The VAV compact controller is supplied with two prewired connecting and communication cables. All interconnected devices must be connected to the same G0. G..B181.1E/KN The operating voltage at terminals G and G0 must comply with the requirements under SELV or PELV. Safety transformers with twofold insulation as per EN 61558 required; they must be designed to be on 100 % of the time. Siemens Building Technologies
