Fantech’s commitment to the development of innovative
technologies has led to the creation of the Aviator range of controllers.
Aviator Intelligent Ventilation Control systems use the latest digital technology
to manage as few as one fan, or up to a large system of multiple fans and
sensors for almost any ventilation application.
Taking control of the air, the Aviator range can be tailored and pre-configured
to suit the requirements of each specific application. The range can drive a
Demand Control Ventilation system that monitors the indoor environment
via sensors. This provides real-time feedback to the fans, which adjusts fan
speed and the ventilation rate to match specific requirements.
“The range combines the latest innovations in controls hardware with
intelligent applications developed by Fantech’s specialist Control Systems
team,” says Fantech Group Product Manager, Peter Henry. “Additionally
these applications provide centralised system monitoring and remote
diagnostics while having the flexibility to be adapted to suit real world
requirements.”
Three models are currently available – the Aviator Touch PRO,
the Aviator MINI and the Aviator MAX.
The Aviator Touch PRO includes an intuitive graphic interface
and a high definition 4.3” LCD touch screen for ease of use
and navigation. It features built-in temperature and humidity
sensors, and is ideal for small to medium size ventilation
applications that require a maximum of 10 fans.
The Aviator MINI has the ability to manage a maximum of 50
fans individually or within a maximum of 6 demand control
zones. It features an advanced 7 day program scheduler and
can easily integrate with Building Management Systems.
The Aviator MAX is a tailored solution designed for car park
ventilation. It works in conjunction with Fantech’s JetVent
fans, pollutant sensors, VSDs,
supply and exhaust fans and the
building management systems.
Aviator MAX has been developed
to increase energy efficiency while
optimising ventilation output.
All Aviator controllers use the Fantech ComLink system –
the standard RS485 communications protocol – to connect
the controller, fans, drives and sensors. This two-wire system
simplifies cabling, reduces installation and commissioning
time, and allows for a greater level of system adjustment.
“Increases in energy prices are driving greater demand
for cost effective systems that can deliver energy efficient
buildings. The Aviator system helps address these concerns
while helping to create healthier and more productive
spaces for building occupants,” says Peter.
