ADAPT Parasol b

Function in the room.
General Functional description air
The product regulates the amount of air to the room
according to three levels:
• Unoccupied
• Min. occupancy
• Max. occupancy
For Unoccupied mode a low airflow is supplied to
save air. When someone enters the room the occupancy
is detected by the occupancy sensor integrated in the
sensor module and the airflow is increased to the Min
occupancy level.
In addition to an occupancy sensor there is also a tem-
perature sensor in the sensor module that measures the
temperature of the room air. When the temperature
exceeds the desired setpoint in the room, the ADAPT
Parasol starts to cool, either with air first, or water first
depending on which the chosen sequence selection.
When the output demand becomes large enough, or air
quality is poor enough, ADAPT Parasol will variably open
up to Max occupancy airflow.
Functional description water
Different temperature settings can be set for
• Unoccupied
• Occupancy:
• Holiday mode, i.e. extended unoccupied mode
• In the case of unoccupied mode the temperature
can be allowed to deviate more from the room’s set-
points than for occupancy. When someone enters the
room and the sensor module indicates occupancy
the ADAPT Parasol is set to normal operation mode
and then regulates the desired room temperature more
accurately. Holiday mode works in the same way
as unoccupied mode, but here the temperatures are
permitted to deviate further from the room’s setpoint
and a signal from a master system is required
• Heating and cooling are controlled in sequence to
avoid simultaneous cooling and heating. However,
there is a cold draught protection that can be activated
and this then means that you allow a certain amount
of heat simultaneously with cooling.
ADAPT Parasol is a four-way blowing comfort module
with built-in control equipment for demand-control not
only of the air but also the entire indoor climate in the
room.
The product can work as a stand-alone unit or connected
in a system such as Swegon’s WISE.
Function of the product is based on a constant duct pres-
sure being provided either through a zone damper such
as CONTROL Zone or in a smaller system with a unit that
can maintain the duct pressure sufficiently constant.
In a room where the occupancy rate is low and/or uneven
ADAPT Parasol can, in the event being unoccupied, save
air through the integrated damper and also allow the
temperature to deviate more from the room’s setpoint
than with occupancy, all to save energy.
On occupancy the integrated control equipment quickly
takes care of the indoor climate by opening the damper
and the cooling or heating valves so that an indoor
climate with high comfort is maintained - yet still with
minimal energy input.
A sensor module with temperature and occupancy sen-
sors registers what is happening in the room and act at
the same time as setpoint selector and alarm indicator.

• Morning, no occupancy
• Airflow “unoccupied”
• The temperature is still regulated according to the set-
tings for unoccupied, but if a cooling demand occurs
e.g. due to solar incident radiation ADAPT Parasol will
start to cool the room.
• Night, no occupancy in the room
• The temperature is permitted to deviate slightly more
from the setpoint than for occupancy.
• Airflow “unoccupied”
Function in the room.
• Morning, the workday begins and someone enters into
the room.
• The sensor module detects occupancy and the airflow
rises to the set Min Occupancy flow, which is the mini-
mum airflow in the room when someone is present.
• The temperature is now allowed to deviate less from
the setpoint value than in unoccupied mode.
• Different things can happen during the day that
change the room's climate, such as increased solar
incident radiation or increased sensory pollution loads
from occupants.
• ADAPT Parasol can now manage this by opening the
water valve in combination with variably regulating the
airflow towards the Max Occupancy flow.
Adaptation as required
During a day different things occur that affect the room’s
climate, and ADAPT Parasol uses both air and water to
maintain a good climate:

ADAPT Parasol b

The principle is the same for a conference room or a open
plan office.
When several ADAPT Parasols are installed in the same
room the airflow is evenly distributed between them.
One product is then defined as the master while the
others become slaves.
If the room is large and there is a great distance between
products, it may be an alternative to allow all the units to
be Masters, i.e. all are regulated independently of each
other. Different parts of the room can then have different
climates, which may be the intention, but you also risk
supplying the room as a whole with both cooling and
heating simultaneously.
Function in the room.
Distribution of the airflows
Master and Slave(s) share the room’s supply airflow
proportionally. Proportionally as two different ADAPT
Parasols, e.g. 600 and 1200 can have different maximum
flows.
Example: If a 600 gives a maximum of 25 l/s and a 1200
max 40 l/s and the room's total supply airflow at one time
is 30 l/s, the 600 will give approx. 12 l/s and the 1200
about 18 l/s. Had both been identical they would have
given 15 l/s each.
The extract air constantly receives a signal from the
master, a signal voltage of 2-8 V, which is converted from
the master’s flow.

ADAPT Parasol works perfectly as a standalone unit, i.e.
without a connection to the master system. The simplest
solution is that shown in the picture, a room with ADAPT
Parasol and extract air via the air transfer grille. Air balan-
cing occurs on a zone level and ADAPT Parasol demand-
controls the climate in the room.

Slave:
• Output no. 13 is set to “ADAPT slave supply air” to
slave control the damper signal from the master.
• The Modbus ID is set between 1-9, not connection to
SuperWISE.
• Addressing of the pressure sensors via the dial should
always follow the slave unit’s Modbus ID 1-9. Addres-
sing of the sensor module ideally follows the same pat-
tern, but is not required. Crucially, two sensor modules
must not have the same address if they are connected
on the same circuit as in this case with master/slave in
the room.
The regulator on the slave unit serves in this case as
the connection point, all intelligence is used in the
master unit.
However, if the room in the future is fitted with a par-
tition, the unit can be easily reconfigured as the master
in its room.
The sensor module connected to the slave unit reports
occupancy and temperature to the master.
• K-factor for ADAPT Parasol slave should be set in the
slave-controller.

Configuration and settings
Function in the room.
Example:
Assume that the room shown with ADAPT Parasol master + slave + ADAPT Damper extract air slave must have the flows
Unoccupied = 12 l/s
Min. occupancy = 25 l/s
Max. occupancy = 60 l/s
By stating the extract air damper’s Min and Max. Flow in the ADAPT Parasol master (via SWICCT or SuperWISE) this
knows what 2V and 8V represent for flows on the extract air damper.
The master then converts the inputted room flows (12/25/60) to an analogue signal between 2-8 V which then slave
controls the extract air damper. The damper can by means of its flow measurement report back the flow.

SWICCT, input in ADAPT Parasol master:
2V = 10 l/s
8V = 80 l/s
12 l/s = 2.17 V
60 l/s = 6.28 V
Note that the extract air damper’s work range must be equal or greater than the room flow.
If the extract air flow must be shared by the two ADAPT Dampers, these must be of the same size and it is the total
flow of the two dampers that should be entered in ADAPT Parasol master controler.
In the above the settings are described based on the ADAPT Damper’s default values being used. These values can be
changed as usual with TUNE Adapt or SuperWISE, and then it is these new values that must be entered in
ADAPT Parasol master controler as set out above.

Sequence selection, cooling with Air or Water first.
It is possible to prioritise cooling with water first or air first.
For the sequence selection water/air the cooling valve is not permitted to open until a given nozzle pressure is reached,
this is to ensure that no cold air drops down into the occupancy zone.
The sequence selections are parameter selections in software, i.e. it is the same physical product being delivered from
the factory.
The principle is the same irrespective of whether you have one product in the room or several Master/Slaves connected.
Sequence selections are described in the following graphs.
Function in the room.
Sequences
1. Occupancy - temperature rises
2. Room temperature reaches the level for the cooling demand - air opens to
reach the minimum pressure that permits the cooling valve to open
3. The cooling valve is permitted to open
4. Cooling valve fully open, but there is still a cooling demand in the room -
air damper opens to cool with more air
5. Cooling valve and air damper fully open
6. Temperature reaches the room’s setpoint, damper and valve close

• The temperature in the room is set by pressing the
function buttons (A)=cooling / (B)=heating.
• Both cooling and heating setpoints move, which
means that the previously created neutral zone is
maintained.
• For example, Cooling Setpoint = 24°C (call for cooling
when the room temperature exceeds 24°C) Heating
Setpoint 22°C (Start heating when the room tem-
perature is below 22°C).
• Press the sensor module twice to make it warmer
means the set values shift 2°C to 24 and 26°C
respectively.
• If the desired temperature is not reached after a
specific time a comfort alarm is generated, which
is indicated by the alarm LED switching between
yellow/green.
• The sensor module can be mounted on a wall where
the room's setpoint needs to be changed often. Nor-
mally this need arises only in rooms used by different
people with different needs.
• Wall mounting is also recommended when you heat
with ADAPT Parasol, usually this gives a fairer meas-
urement of the room temperature.
In SWICCT it is possible to state how you wish to
measure the temperature in the room:
• Mean value of sensor modules: In cases where
multiple sensor modules are connected to the master,
for example, when using slave units, the mean value of
all sensor modules can then be used for temperature
control in the room.
• Sensor module id 0: the selection means that only
one sensor module (the one with id 0, master unit) is
used for temperature control.
• External temperature sensor: here you state that
an external temperature sensor is used, and regulation
occurs only according to this sensor.
• Mean value of sensor modules and ext. Temp.
Sens: signifies that the mean value of both sensor
modules and external temperature sensors is used for
temperature control.

Remember:
• ADAPT Parasol measures the pressure in each unit
and can therefore manage the occupancy flow
accurately as long as there is sufficient duct pressure
available.
• The built-in damper generates very little noise com-
pared with traditional balancing damper and in many
cases a sound attenuator in the room can therefore
be excluded. However, beware of other sounds such
as crosstalk and noise from other sources such as
zone dampers further back in the system.
• By selecting the unoccupied flow and maximum
occupancy flow in a smart way in the software you
also compensate for the duct pressure drop and con-
trol measurement is easier, see page 20-21.
• The software manages the flows, but beware of the
noise.
• However, traditional balancing dampers may be
required for duct lengths and duct pressure drop out-
side the recommended ranges. This is easily checked
by using ProSelect by entering the actual duct pres-
sure on the actual product.
Traditional system design with pressure
controlled units and zone dampers
that maintain a constant pressure in
each zone. In a small installation, a
good unit can possibly maintain a
sufficiently constant pressure.

Minimum and maximum flows from ProSelect limited by the available pressure and nozzle configuration selected for an
ADAPT Parasol 1200 HF LMLM.
Min. occupancy flow is selectable in ProSelect and here is set to 15 l/s.
For an accepted pressure drop in the duct system of 1 Pa/m, the following can be used:

In SWICCT or by configuring ADAPT Parasol in ProWISE limits can also be set for unoccupied and occupancy max flow
(note the product's absolute min and max from the previous figure which are controlled by the selected nozzle setting!)
By letting the most exposed product in this way be the design unit for the current duct section and taking this into
account at an early stage, you do not use a balancing damper before each product and can thus save both available
pressure and money on unnecessary balancing dampers, which in addition also risk creating noise.
Of course, the pressure fluctuations in a duct system can be so large that a traditional balancing damper may still be
required, but in all probability a damper in front of each product is not necessary as it should be enough to lower the
pressure in some of the duct system and then apply the above.
