Zone airflow control, independent of duct pressure

OVERVIEW

Zone airflow control, independent of duct pressure

01How it worksThe S-VAV-S single-duct box is the terminal of a pressure-independent VAV system: the flow sensor measures the inlet airflow and the Belimo controller holds it at the set point between Vmin and Vmax as the room requires.
02ApplicationsOffices, hotels, hospitals and schools with zone-varying cooling loads · Pressure-independent VAV systems with variable-speed AHUs · Fresh-air flow and CO₂-based air quality control
03Starduct – BelimoCasing, damper and sensor are made in the Starduct factory; controller and room devices are supplied by Belimo (Switzerland).
04ProtocolsBMS integration via BACnet MS/TP or Modbus RTU

SELECTING A VAV BOX

Four steps to size a box

01AirflowDetermine the zone maximum airflow Vmax (m³/h or L/s) and the minimum Vmin required for ventilation.
02Pick the sizeChoose the size where Vmax is 0.75 – 1.25 × rated airflow (inlet velocity 7.5 – 12.5 m/s); inlet velocity at Vmin must not be below 1 m/s for a reliable sensor signal.
03Minimum pressureCheck that the available static pressure drop across the box exceeds the MOP at Vmax.
04NoiseRead discharge and radiated NC at Vmax and the design ΔPs; compare with the room NC limit.
