However, optimum cost efficiency is realised when the drive has been fully integrated into the system. Danfoss’ HVAC expertise can help you configure and install the drive as a fully integrated system component, identifying real-time installation savings in the system that can virtually offset the initial capital cost of the drive. Below the surface, we are able to maximise the “real” savings, delivering the best return on investment, providing optimum performance and environmental conditions through our extensive experience in integrating Danfoss technology into your new or existing applications. How do we do this? We combine HVAC-designed product functionality, application knowledge and integration expertise, thus delivering lower system costs and optimum energy savings. 32009-10-25T11:50:02+01:00http://danfoss.ipapercms.dk/Drives/DD/Global/SBABrochures/VLTHVAC/?Page=4http://danfoss.ipapercms.dk/Drives/DD/Global/SBABrochures/VLTHVAC/?Page=4How we have dedicated our drives to HVAC Automatic Energy Optimisation (AEO) The drive continuously monitors the relationship between voltage and current in the motor and adjusts the output voltage to minimise current and maximise motor and drive efficiency. Four input PID controller The extended PID controllers offer unequaled flexibility. One integral PID controller controls the drive’s speed. Three extended PID controllers provide an output that can be used for additional HVAC control. For retrofitting, the integral PID controller and two static pressure transmitters can be used to control supply fan capacity. One transmitter controls the fan motor speed based on system static pressure. The second functions a discharge operating high limit to prevent damage to the duct work. Manual resetting of the duct sensor is eliminated. The additional extended PID controllers can be used for additional HVAC processes – heating or cooling valve control, damper control, etc. Single input PID controller A built-in controller operates independently and eliminates the need for a building automation system to maintain constant flow in systems. A signal from a temperature, pressure, or flow transmitter connected to the drive is all that is required. Multi-zone feedback The drive PID controller offers unequaled flexibility by accepting up to three feedback signals with individual set-points. Multi-zone control provides improved system performance and optimisation. Stand-alone operation The PID controller provides variable air volume features without dependence on a building automation system. This eliminates the need for additional direct digital control and I/O modules. Automatic Switching Frequency Modulation (ASFM) There is no need to derate the drive output at high load. ASFM adjusts the switching frequency based on motor current demand, rather than motor speed. This ensures that the best possible switching frequency is provided, matching both performance and noise control. De-icing Under severe winter weather conditions, it may be necessary to reverse the cooling tower fan to remove accumulated ice from the intake louvers. The VLT® drive can reverse airflow direction for timed durations to prevent ice accumulation on both the intake louvers and the exhaust fan blades. Minimum frequency A minimum output frequency ensures sufficient fan speed operation for the adequate lubrication of the tower fan gearbox. Frequency bypass The fan motor in the cooling tower steps over speeds that cause mechanical vibration in the tower, preventing potential damage to mechanical components in the system. 42009-10-25T11:50:02+01:00http://danfoss.ipapercms.dk/Drives/DD/Global/SBABrochures/VLTHVAC/?Page=5http://danfoss.ipapercms.dk/Drives/DD/Global/SBABrochures/VLTHVAC/?Page=5Fire Override Mode Primarily used for fire safety applications, the drive can override fan operation to provide a life-safety application, such as building pressurisation or a smoke-purge operation. Broken belt detection The drive monitors the V-belt on a fan, pump or compressor and gives a warning when a malfunction such as a broken belt occurs. Motor soft start Smooth acceleration of the pump reduces noise, peak current, thermal motor load, and mechanical stress to the hot water pump system caused by water hammer. In addition, smooth acceleration extends motor life. High and low feedback warning A selected high and low hot water differential pressure feedback signal monitored by the VLT® drive can indicate system problems prior to the boiler tripping off. Metering The local control panel of the drive can be used to display many drive or system operating variables including kWh, hours run, static duct pressure, condenser water return temperature etc. Sleep mode The VLT® drive automatically stops the cooling tower fan when the basin water temperature remains at a low level for a pre-determined amount of time. Minimum speed control Under minimal loads, this feature provides the required minimum air changes in a zone to ensure adequate air quality. Under increased zone loads, such as with occupancy, the fan speed increases to maintain the desired environmental conditions. Automatic restart Automatic power-up after a trip-out enhances automated operation for remotely controlled systems. Run permissive A “system ready” signal prior to operation prevents the drive from starting and ensures that dampers or other system equipment are in the proper state before starting the motor. This feature reduces the number of I/O points and installation costs. High and low frequency warning Useful in staging on or off additional equipment, such as pumps or fans when the motor speed is either too high or too low. A specific frequency can be set for warning and to stage external devices on or off. Motor preheat To extend the life of a motor in a damp environment, a small amount of current can be trickled into the motor to protect it from condensation and the effects of a cold start. 52009-10-25T11:50:02+01:00http://danfoss.ipapercms.dk/Drives/DD/Global/SBABrochures/VLTHVAC/?Page=6http://danfoss.ipapercms.dk/Drives/DD/Global/SBABrochures/VLTHVAC/?Page=6Dedicated drives – all you need is built right in VLT® HVAC Drive IP 20 Panel mount VLT® HVAC Drive VLT® Micro Drive FC51 VLT® 2800 VLT® Drive Motor FCM 300 Features for providing precise and accurate control are standard in the VLT® HVAC Drive FC 100.

Real Time Clock The Real Time Clock performs predefined actions. This is a strong tool for controlling HVAC systems where the drives are not connected to a Building Management System (BMS), or if the drive is used as an intelligent component. Preventive Maintenance 20 actions items can be scheduled within the VLT® HVAC Drive to secure planned maintenance and a more reliable HVAC system. Full power range 1.1 kW – 1.2 MW VLT® HVAC Drives are available. Set-up software HVAC installations are easily set up and documented using VLT® Motion Control Tool software (MCT 10).
