4.1 Setting the Fan Operating Points
Setting Control Functions
Under the “Fan Configuration" tab, you can set the way in which fans and air volumes are to be controlled and
regulated.
Fans and air volumes can be controlled according to the following operating modes: see next pages.
General Information About the
Start-Up Sequence
1. When the system is activated, the following
start-up sequence is followed regardless of
the selected control type (constant pressure,
constant flow, CO2, VOC, etc.):
2. The outdoor/exhaust air dampers are opened.
3. The exhaust fan is started with the delayed time.
4. The supply fan is started with the delayed time.
5. Heat recovery is overridden to 100% (rotary,
cross-flow, counter-flow or fluid coupled heat
exchanger).
6. The heating valve is overridden to the value
(Startup heating: default 50%) set under
“Preheat & Heat Configuration” – only applies in
the case of a water-based heating battery.
7. Exhaust/Supply fans speed are increased until
it reaches the setpoint for air quantity/duct
pressure.
8. When the exhaust or supply fan has passed 95%
of the setpoint for air quantity/duct pressure, the
override signals for heat recovery and heating
valves are discontinued.
4.0 Configuring Controls

Operation and Maintenance Manual Nova Series
20
Constant Air Volume
• Supply and return fans are controlled in relation
to flow/air volumes in the Supply and return
ducts respectively.
• Air volumes are measured/calculated by
measuring the dierence between static and
dynamic pressure across the fan.
• The dierence between static and dynamic
pressure is measured by means of pressure
transmitters, either the pressure transmitters built
into the Huba Type 699M pressure transmitters.
Constant Pressure Return Slave
• The Supply fan is controlled in relation to the
pressure in the Supply duct while the return fan
is controlled as a slave of the Supply fan with a
freely selected oset.
• The system need only be equipped with pressure
transmitters in the Supply duct.
• Pressure transmitter of Huba Type 699M is
suitable.
• Pressure transmitters used to measure pressure
dierences across the fans cannot be omitted as
these are used to control the air flow.
Constant CO2
• The system must be configured with a CO2
sensor.
• The CO2 sensor can either be positioned in the
room as a room sensor or in the return duct as a
duct sensor.
• Irrespective of whether the CO2 sensor is a
room or duct sensor, the CO2 sensor must be
configured under “Fan Configuration – Parameter
1.43”.
Constant VOC
• The system must be configured with a VOC
sensor.
• The VOC sensor shall be positioned in the return
duct.
VOC/CO2 Control
• The CO2 concentration in the room is controlled
by regulating air volume via fan speed.
• If the CO2 or VOC level in the room rises, fan
speed is increased, thus increasing air volume/air
turnover towards the return air fan high speed air
volume setting “Fan Configuration – Parameter
1.22”.
• If the CO2 or VOC level in the room falls, fan
speed is decreased, thus reducing air volume/air
turnover towards the return air fan low speed air
volume setting “Fan Configuration – Parameter
1.20”.
