Arens Automatic Ventilation Controller
The Automatic Ventilation Controller coordinates the ventilation of multiple rooms by simultaneously controlling up to 8 additional Zone Controllers. A fully automated natural ventilation and night purge system (if required) can be provided using these controllers, whilst still offering the option of manual operation by the occupants through a Zone Controller.
Windows are opened and closed depending upon control calendar, time of day, rain, wind speed, and internal and external temperature.
The complete range of Arens Electric Chain Winders and Linear Actuators are compatible with the Arens Automatic Ventilation Controller.
