Chilled Water Fan Coil Unit

DCBL VAV Stepless FCU Model : HFCA03~HFCA14

The Best Choice for Comfort

Features & Benefits

Save energy / higher efficiency than typical FCU. Low electro magnetic noise DC fan motor. Step-less fan motor with real Variable Air Volume (VAV) function. Proportional Integration logic monitoring and controls. Comfortable room temperature.

Temperature Swings less than 0.5C

A typical fan coil unit varies room temperature by water flow controls (on-off or modulating) plus specific fan speed selection (hi-medium-low). These always resulted in unstable room temperature (figure 1) and poor humidity control in occupied spaces. In contrast to the old-fashioned control method, model DCBL fan coil unit applies Proportional Integration (P-I) logic for modulation of fan speed and is able to stabilize room temperature within 0.5 Celsius degrees while operating in automatic mode.

change in motor speed allows gradual changes to room temperature and minimizes fan blade sudden impact noise (compared to 20~25% rps change with conventional control and old fashioned 3-speed motors).

Desired Airflow at Lower Speed Equals Energy Savings

The DC motor is able to deliver high torque and thus overcome airflow friction at a low speed, generating substantial external static pressure to deliver needed airflow. It also has less mechanical friction loss and therefore higher operating efficiency than a typical permanent split capacitor (PSC) motor. In other words, it achieves real energy savings. In a figure 2, there are 2 models (HFCA08 and DCBL08) expressing electrical consumption (Watt) against specific range of speeds (600~950 RPM). The result is indicated that a DCBL08 saves energy about 30% at high speed and 60% at low speed beneath the same working conditions with HFCA08.

New Features Variable Airflow/Accurate Control

The model DCBL fan coil unit features variable airflow in addition to accurate temperature control; features not available in typical fan coil units. With a dedicated wall mounted, intelligent, liquid crystal display (LCD) thermostat and an advanced stepless DC fan motor, the advanced model DCBL fan coil unit uses unique control logic and smooth fan speed modulation to create real ambient comfort, achieving desired room temperature without excessive indoor moisture. Other advantages of a DC fan motor are low noise and high efficiency.

Low Noise with Gradual Changes

With P-I logic communications between the fan coil control board and the LCD thermostat, the feedback signal from the return air temperature sensor is scanned every second in order to verify the set temperature continuously. The fan coil control board commands the DC fan motor to maintain a continuous speed prior to receiving a new feedback signal. After examining five cycles of temperature measurement a new fan motor speed is set. The speed change is made linearly, increasing or decreasing fan motor speed about ten revolutions per second in order to reach the set temperature again. The linear

DCBL fan coil unit enables to deliver advance performance of airflow (green color curve with extension dash line) by excess power input, please consult Trane engineer for further technical support.

Product Specification

=General
Fabricated with a rigid galvanized steel casing. The DIDW centrifugal fans have balanced, galvanized steel, and forward curved blades. The fan board and the top of coil casing have insulation of 6mm thickness, 108 kg/m3 high-density non-flammable PU foam. Interchangable coil direction to match water connections on the field. An optional return air plenum is available to allow the connection different types of filter. IEC 60335 safety certified.

The operating motor maintains low casing temperature (less thermal loss) and low noise (less friction). The motor lead-out wires are enclosed by flexible metal conduit and providing protection against damage.

=Control Unit
The control unit consists of Main Control Board at FCU side panel and wall mounted LCD Thermostat to achieve step-less control for fan motor. With microprocessor and applying PI (Proportional-Integration) logic for standalone control unit, which enables to deliver fast signal response and accurate controls. Applicable to either 2-pipe system (cooling only/ cooling and heating/ cooling and electric heater) or 4-pipe system (cooling and heating).

=Motor / Converter / Driver(Fan Motor Assembly)

The direct current brush-less single phase motor (DC 300V) is ready for 220/240VAC at 50/60 Hertz, associates with converter and driver as entire DCBL fan motor assembly. A DC fan motor applies hall magnetic pole sensing element, which is offered maintenance free and longer operating cycle than carbon brush type fan motor. A DC fan motor is controlled by PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) for alternative speed. The motor is consisted with hermetic aluminum alloy casing, 8-pole coil, permanent magnet rotor, Cr-plating polishing shaft (S45C medium carbon steel), and permanently lubricated ball bearing. The motor has grade E class insulation; in additions of built-in thermal cutout, current overload and status scan by main control board. Default air volume setting (step-less) at ranges of 30% to 100% against nominal airflow of each model.

The LCD thermostat able to display 1) room temperature, 2) set temperature, 3) status of fan mode and speed, and 4) failure codes for trouble-shooting and maintenance purpose. PCB DIP switch setting for 1) autorestart function for fan motor operating again by resuming power, 2) Key-card function - stop or still operating beneath unoccupied mode at default setting temperature by remove keycard (the default setting temperature is adjustable at job site from 16~32 deg. C), and 3) customize thumb wheel (variable resistor/ analog signal) set temperature Customer wiring for unit remote on/off and control cable distance up to 100 meters. Optional back light of blue color.

=Coil
The coil can have 2,3 or 4 rows, with copper tubes mechanically bonded into slit aluminum fin collars. Water inlet / outlet connections are 3/4-inch female pipe thread (JIS B 0203-1966). Header assembly is a one-piece casting, which enables to connect steel pipe directly. Coil assembly is tested over 20 kg/cm2. A manual air vent is fitted with a drain line to the drain pan to avoid any water drips when venting. A water drain is located at the bottom of the coil header.

=Main Control Board

The main control board is served with 3 binary output contacts for 1) 2-way or 3-way on/off water valve, 2) 4-way valve for heat pump and 3) interlock for remote chiller. DIP switch for setting air volume (stepless) upon different ESP applications. There are 8 modes of adjustable air volume at ranges of 30% to 120% (default at 30% to 100%) available to suit different system requirements on the field. Maintain lowest fan speed at the set temperature.

=Drain Pan
The drain pan is 25mm depth with 0.8mm thickness galvanized steel c/w internal epoxy resin coating. For sure without leakage occur, the fabrication of drain pan by one-piece stamping process with seamless and no joint. The standard insulation material is 5mm thickness, 27 kg/m3 density PE foam. The drain pan has one 3/4-inch male pipe thread (JIS B 0203-1966) connection.

=LCD Thermostat
Full features of 1) power on/off, 2) room temperature setting, 3) cool/ heat/ fan operating mode, 4) auto/ 3-speed fan mode, 5) timer on and off, and 6) sleep mode.

The Trane Fan Coil... ...Invented by Trane ...Perfected by Trane

=Heater
Two types of heating device are available: hot water and electric sheathed heating element. Please check technical data for such different types of heating capacity. Meet Australia safety code AS 1668.1 (Section 2.9), and AS 3102.

Since 1885, Trane has been at the technological forefront of air conditioning. The company's pioneering spirit, commitment to research and pursuit of quality have made it a world leader in the manufacture of water chillers. Over 70 years ago Trane produced the first fan coil unit and in so doing created a product which is now built worldwide. The universal acceptance of this product has prompted Trane to focus the same engineering experience to the fan coil as given to the refrigeration products.

=Plenum & Filters =S430(Standard) / S304(Option) Stainless Steel Drain Pan =Blue Fin
The blue fin with vinyl-epoxy-based coating that has been tested under ASTM B117, and thus of higher corrosion resistance than aluminum fin stock.
