What is FCU actuator?

What is FCU actuator?

FCU actuator valve belongs to the central air-conditioning terminal control products. As an executive component that controls the water flow in the fan-coil, FCU motorized valve is controlled by the central air-conditioning thermostat (or three-speed switch).

How does a FCU work?

A fan coil unit (FCU) contains a fan which draws the air in a space into the unit then blows it over a cooling or heating coil. The air comes out of the FCU either cooler or hotter than before. Each FCU is provided with a small supply of outside air to ensure adequate ventilation.

What is FCU in HVAC?

A fan coil unit (FCU) is a device that uses a coil and a fan to heat or cool a room without connecting to ductwork. Indoor air moves over the coil, which heats or cools the air before pushing it back out into the room.

What is FCU control panel?

It starts or stops the FCU, controls the airflow volume and valves. Furthermore, it enables the setback operation, the interlock operation with the outdoor air handling units, etc. By connecting the user terminal, a user can start or stop the FCU.

What is the function of actuator in FCU?

The actuator performs the opening / closing of the valve with the command it receives from the controller.

What is a DRV valve?

The double regulating valve, or balancing valve as it is sometimes referred to, is a valve commonly found in water systems. They react to changes in pressure from the cold or hot water that flows into them. The pressure is balanced by a sliding disc attached to a piston, or a spool that reacts to changes.

How air from fan coil FCU unit will reach to the room?

The fan coil units are connected to either a heating coil, a cooling coil or both heating and cooling coil. These will condition the air. A motorised fan inside the fan coil will then force the air out into some smaller, localised, ducts to strategically distribute the air within the room.

Why do we use FCU?

FCU’s are generally used for controlling the space where they are installed. AHU’s are part of a larger system. FCU’s don’t generally use ductwork to cool or heat air. The fan pulls the air over the coil.

What is FCU and AHU in HVAC?

AHU, completely known as air handling unit is different from FCU or the fan coil unit. AHUs are usually connected to a central HVAC system whereas an FCU can function or be installed itself. It is only composed of a simple coil and fan. Ordinarily, AHUs have certain features that are not present in the FCU type.

What does FCU stand for?

A federal credit union (FCU) is a credit union regulated and supervised by the National Credit Union Association (NCUA). The NCUA is a federal government agency with authority designated by the Federal Credit Union Act of 1934 to oversee the national credit union system in the United States.

Where is actuator located?

The AC actuator is located above or below the coil. It can be set to either single speed or variable speed. When it is not working properly, your AC will be ineffective, and your power bills can skyrocket.

Which is FCU control valve does Honeywell use?

FCU Controls Fan Coil Unit Controller Control the continuity of hot and cold fluids in residential and commercial buildings Consisting of two parts: an electric actuator and valve body, Honeywell’s Fan Coil Unit control valve offers a wide range of voltages and screw threads connections standards for many building control applications.

Which is the best FCU PiCV valve set?

For the past 10 years FloControl have supplied the most compact pre-assembled FCU PICV Valve Set to mount directly onto fan coil units from any manufacturer.

What kind of controller does a FCU need?

This product (Model WJ-1202) is a controller for the FCU (fan coil unit). It starts or stops the FCU, controls the airflow volume and valves. By connecting the user terminal, a user can start or stop the FCU. This product is compatible with BACnet MS/TP which is an open protocol.

Which is part of the fan coil unit control valve?

Control the continuity of hot and cold fluids in residential and commercial buildings Consisting of two parts: an electric actuator and valve body, Honeywell’s Fan Coil Unit control valve offers a wide range of voltages and screw threads connections standards for many building control applications.
