Distech Controls EC-Smart-Sensor-VAV - Allure communicating LCD sensor

Description

The Allure EC-Smart-Sensor-VAV is specifically designed to interface with Distech Controls' ECC-VAVS / ECC-VAV and ECP-VAVS / ECP-VAV series controllers. It provides precision local temperature sensing and a variety of public functions that can be accessed by room occupants as well as password-protected functions for technicians.
The alluring, slim profile enclosure is suitable for classrooms, hotels, executive areas, office spaces and commercial areas. With a user-friendly interface, occupants can view and adjust environmental settings to their liking, for example, view the space temperature, adjust the setpoint, and apply an occupancy override.
Maintenance personnel have access to a password-protected configuration mode that allows them to perform airflow balancing on a connected VAV controller. In addition, maintenance personnel can use an EC-Smart-Sensor-VAV to either override a controller’s outputs or just view its input and output values; which of these two options is available depends on whether the sensor is connected to a controller of type ECC (configurable) or ECP (programmable).
Mounting hardware with a separate sub-base is provided with the Allure EC-Smart-Sensor-VAV for installation on a dry wall or on an electrical junction box. Alternatively, the Allure EC-Smart-Sensor-VAV can be used as a handheld device when wired into a standard wall-mounted room sensor. Technicians can perform detailed monitoring and configuration such as airflow balancing of the VAV and associated equipment right near the point of control. The lightweight design and quick connect 2-wire interface make the Allure EC-Smart-Sensor-VAV convenient to use.
The Allure EC-Smart-Sensor-VAV is configurable using either the EC-Configure plug-in or EC-gfxProgram, depending on the type of controller connected to the sensor. Both tools are accessible through any LNS®-based software, such as Distech Controls’ Lonwatcher 3, or from any multi-protocol platform software that supports LONWORKS® devices, such as Distech Controls’ EC-NetAX, which is powered by the NiagaraAX Framework®.
