The JetVent EC series (JIU-CPC EC) has been extended
with standard, low height and high performance models now
available. All three fans come
with the option of a factory-fitted
integrated smoke detection kit.
JetVent fans are mainly used in
fully or partially enclosed car parks, but have also been
installed in a number of unique applications such as indoor
go-kart tracks. The fans operate on well proven longitudinal
tunnel ventilation principles and effectively direct air flow
throughout the car park to the exhaust fan.
Fitted with an efficient EC (electronic commutated) motor
with integrated speed control, the JetVent EC series does away
with VSDs, current overloads and motor phase protection.
Due to the proportional control capabilities, the fans all have a
soft start and quiet operation under normal conditions.
Each JetVent fan can have up to two pollutant sensors
and an integrated smoke detection kit that is powered by the
actual fan. ComLink, JetVent’s digital communication system,
allows real time information to be digitally transmitted between
the fan units and the EcoVent Controller.
The capability of the EcoVent controller has been
expanded to accommodate up to 24 JetVent EC fans,
48 pollutant sensors and 24 integrated smoke detectors.
The new and improved firmware has also simplified the
implementation of automatic, off and override functions.
In automatic mode, the controller responds to signals
from the pollutant and smoke detection sensors.
It adjusts the speed of the fan to match the level
of carbon monoxide or nitrous oxide in the car park.
This demand control system improves air quality
while minimising energy use as the fans only operate
when required.
If any fan in the car park detects smoke, a signal is sent
to the Ecovent controller which turns off all fans before
sprinkler activation to maximise occupant safety. The fans
can be switched on again to clear smoke using the manual
override function.
The Victorian Building Appeals Board has given approval
for the installation of impulse ventilation systems utilising
Fantech JetVent impulse fans in sprinkler protected car park
environments. The Board found that the JetVent system with
the integrated smoke detector complied with Performance
Requirements EP1.4, EP2.2 and FP4.4 of Volume One of the
Building Code of Australia (BCA).
