OPERATION
The OMNIA UL_N fan coil concentrates
hi-tech and highly functional features
that make it the ideal means of climate
control in every room.
OMNIA fan coils are designed for
indoor use.
The supply of climate-controlled air is
immediate and distributed throughout
the room. OMNIA UL_N generates
heat if inserted in a heating system with
boiler or heat pump, but it can also be
used in summer as an air conditioner if
the heating system has a water chiller.
The quality of the treated air is guar-
anteed by a special, electrostatically
pre-charged filter which absorbs and
holds back the suspended dust par-
ticles. With the fan coil switched off,
the closed fin prevents any dust or for-
eign bodies from entering.
The removable drip tray and fan volute
ensure thorough cleaning of the unit
(by specifically trained personnel),
essential for installations in venues sub-
ject to crowding or in those with spe-
cial hygiene requirements.
The quietness of the new centrifugal
fan assembly is such that at normal
speeds of use you cannot hear when
the OMNIA UL_N cuts in. The use of
the electronic control panel avoids the
annoying noise typical of mechanical
thermostats.
The control panel is protected by a flap
on the head.
OMNIA UL_N is equipped with an elec-
tronic control panel with microproces-
sor. It's extremely intuitive and user-
friendly, with just two knobs - one to
increase or decrease the temperature,
and the other to switch on/off and set
the ventilation speed.
The settings made on the control panel
can be transmitted (without additional
interfaces) to a network with up to
5 fan coils, all equipped with their
own electronic card. The fan coils in
the network will each adapt their own
operation to the environmental condi-
tions detected in that specific room.
The OMNIA UL_N fan coil has been
designed to meet all system require-
ments, thanks also to its wide range of
accessories.
Easy installation with reversible hydraulic
connections during installation.
Full compliance with accident preven-
tion regulations.
Routine maintenance is reduced to
periodic air filter cleaning with a
vacuum cleaner.
• Type of system
The OMNIA UL_N fan coils are
designed for 2-pipe systems and are
configured:
- without valve;
- with 2-way valve or water probe
downstream from the valve;
- with 3-way valve and water probe
downstream from the valve;
• Operation in TTL network
The OMNIA UL_N “master” is fitted
with an electronic card with micropro-
cessor, able to manage a network of
a further 5 fan coils over a maximum
network length of 30 metres. The set-
tings (or set points) of the panel on the
main fan coil (master) are received by
the other fan coils (slaves) which will
operate autonomously.
The OMNIA UL fan coil with slave
function must be fitted with the elec-
tronic card with microprocessor VMF-
E0 or VMF-E1 (an accessory).
All the fan coils of the TTL network must
have the same type of configuration.
Example: all standard, all with puri-
fiers (Plasmacluster and/or germicidal
lamps), or all with an additional coil
(electric or with water).
The slave fan coils work with the set-
tings dictated by the master fan coil.
On the basis of the settings received
from the network and the ambient
conditions detected by the probes, the
electronic card on each single slave
fan coil acts (independently from the
other fan coils) to switch the ventila-
tion on and off in order to create the
conditions requested by the user for
that specific room.
• Cooling operation
Cooling operation requires a water cir-
cuit with chiller.
• Heating operation
Heating operation requires a water cir-
cuit with boiler, heat pump or solar
system.
• Changeover (seasonal change)
The thermostat automatically selects the
operating mode (Heating/Cooling), if
that mode is permitted (water probe
and settings).
- Normal band: heating at 39°C; cool-
ing at 17°C.
- Reduced band: heating at 35°C; cool-
ing at 22°C.
- Dead band: can be selected at 5°C or 2°C.
Water side changeover
- Water temperature checks
Enabling of water side ventilation (only
active with water temperature probe).
The thermostat identifies the ventilation
enabling threshold in Heating mode
(minimum controlled) and Cooling
mode (maximum controlled); with the
dip-switches it is possible to choose
between two temperature bands.
Air side changeover
If the actual room temperature is lower
than the set point by a value equal to
the dead band, there is an automatic
swap to Heating operation.
If the actual room temperature is higher
than the set point by a value equal to
the dead band, there is an automatic
swap to Cooling operation.
In the fan coil networks, the values of
the dead band are only those config-
ured on the master fan coil
• Pause due to power failure
After a power failure, the unit restarts
with the settings that were active prior
to the pause.
• Delayed start-up
The unit can begin ventilation some
time after start-up - usually up to 2’40”
(pre-heating function).
• Anti-freeze protection
Commands on OFF position. The fan
coil can restart in heating mode (set-
ting 12°C) if the room temperature
falls below 7°C and the temperature of
the water in the system is suitable.
In the fan coil networks, the slave fan
coils can activate the anti-freeze pro-
tection regardless of the settings on the
master fan coil.
If the anti-freeze protection is active on
the master fan coil, all the other slave fan
coils will also adopt a setting of 12°C,
regardless of their ambient conditions.
• Room temperature probe
If the room temperature probe on the
slave fan coils is faulty, the tempera-
ture will be measured by the probe of
the master.
•Ventilation
3-speed ventilation can be commanded
both manually and automatically.
- Manual, with the selector on V1, V2
and V3. The fan is used with ON-OFF
cycles at the selected speed.
- Automatic, with the selector on
AUTO. The fan speed is managed by
the thermostat, on the basis of the
ambient conditions and the fan coil
configuration.
Thermostat settings:
- 3-level thermostat, with the selector
on AUTO. The fan maintains the speed
relating to one of the three predeter-
mined steps, depending on the differ-
ence between room temperature and
set point. Once it has reached the set
point, the fan will switch off.
