CONTROL OPTIONS
The Rickard wall thermostat can control a single diffuser, or up
to 15 diffusers. The standard thermostat monitors temperature
and controls the set point, while the version with occupancy
sensing can also detect a vacant zone and automatically switch
off that zone. Generally for larger more complex applications,
electronic diffusers connect to the most common BMS protocols
on the market; LonWorks and BACnet/IP and MS/TP or the
Rickard standalone software. Thousands of Diffusers can be
connected, controlled, monitored and fine-tuned via the BMS
using the Rickard Master Communications Module.
Rickard software is easy to install,
commission and re-program
Rickard's easy to use software is perfect for all applications
where a BMS system is not being utilised within the building.
This standalone software has been developed for commissioning
and setting diffuser parameters, monitoring the network,
logging diffuser activity and converting a slave diffuser to a
master, all from below the ceiling with a computer. Changes
to office layouts are easy as each diffuser can be easily
re-positioned and re-programmed according to its new
environment.
The Rickard software can show you how each diffuser is
connected within the zone and which diffusers make up each
zone. By selecting the diffuser parameters you wish to log, data
can also be viewed in an easy to understand chart and exported
for storage and analysis if required. This ensures that any
corrections or adjustment to the system can be made accurately
and with minimum disturbance to the building occupants.
Occupancy Sensor
Occupancy sensing is a unique option that can lead to the
further reduction of a building's energy consumption. It is
available within the Square Electronic VAV Ceiling diffuser itself
and a specially designed wall thermostat. This technology
closes the diffuser if it detects an unoccupied room and opens it
again when it detects an occupant present.
If the Electronic diffuser system is connected to the building's
BMS, its occupancy sensing capability can also be used to turn
the lights on and off depending on the occupancy of the space.
Air Flow Sensor
Air flow monitoring enables commissioning of the electronic
diffuser system to occur easier and faster. This is because air
flow and total pressure measurements can be viewed and
monitored through Rickard's software or the BMS. It can be
fitted to each diffuser for accurate air flow calculations, or to
one diffuser per zone for an approximate indication.
