Regio zone controllers
Regio is a wide series of room controllers which handle everything from heating, cooling and
ventilation to lighting, humidity, CO2monitoring and blinds. Regio can be used for creating
everything from stand-alone systems for managing the functions in one room, to large,
integrated systems with a comprehensive SCADA-system.
Regio also offers web and Internet solutions. Temperature and other functions in a room can
be individually controlled from a PC connected to the office network.
Mini, Midi, Maxi The Regio controllers are divided into three different series, Mini, Midi and Maxi.
Mini (RC) are 24 V AC stand-alone controllers for controlling heating and cooling in a
room. The series consists of different room control units and a relay box for fan control. The
control units are pre-programmed to handle different functions and can easily be configured.
They have a built-in temperature sensor, but an external temperature sensor can also be
connected.
The Midi controllers (RC-C) have the same characteristics as Mini. They can be used stand-
alone or in a system with communication. The controllers are connected to bus lines such as
Modbus or Regin’s own bus system EXOline, to communicate with a central SCADA-
system via RS485. They can also be configured for a specific application with Regin’s
software tool Regio tool©.
Maxi (RCP) are 230 V AC freely programmable room controllers for handling all functions
in a zone system. The controllers are pre-programmed but can be configured using Regio
tool©. Different room units (RU-units) with built-in temperature sensor are connected to the
controllers. Maxi can be connected to standardised bus systems like Modbus or EXOline,
with communication via TCP/IP, RS485 or LON, and integrated with a central SCADA-
system. Using EXO4 Web Server, all functions can be handled from a PC with Internet
Explorer and no room units are needed. This will keep the investment down.
Awarded design Regio has a modern design which enhances the indoor environment. The design has been
awarded the 2007 “iF product design award”, which more than 1100 participants from over
30 countries compete for every year. The contributions are judged by an international panel,
according to a large number of criteria. The competition has been running for 53 years and is
one of the most acknowledged design competitions in the world.
Applications The Regio controllers have appealing design and functionality. They are suitable in buildings
where you want optimal comfort and low energy consumption, for example offices, schools,
shopping centres, airports, hotels and hospitals.
Mounting The modular design with a separate bottom plate for wiring makes the whole Regio series
easy to install and commission.
