Control and supervision of air-to-air units
VECTIC

The Vectic control is an electronic module with microprocessor designed for the control and supervision of air-air units (especially rooftop models). This control is implemented in the all CIAT rooftops: VECTIOS and VECTIOSPOWER.

Different terminal options (user / maintenance)
Multilingual
Numerous configurable features
BMS communication

This control enables unit integration with local supervision solutions: pCO Web (1 unit); BOSS mini (up to 50 units) and BOSS (up to 300 units), as well as with the remote solution.

Management of units up to 2 frigorific circuits and 4 scroll compressors with electronic expansion valves, indoor EC plug-fans, outdoor axial fans (EC or AC 2 speed), energy recovery and many other options.

The Vectic control is an electronic module with microprocessor designed for the control and supervision of air-air units (especially rooftop models).
This control consist of a control board, sensors, a VecticGD graphic terminal, and a TCO user terminal (optional).

This system uses a RS485 field-bus to manage additional components such as: pCOe expansion modules, SMALL board, plug-fans, probes of temperature or relative humidity of the ambient air, leak detectors, energy meters, etc.

A BMS card (optional) allows the control board to be connected to a centralised technical management system with the following communication protocols: Carel, Modbus, LonWorks®, BACnetTM MSTP, Konnex, Modbus TCP/IP, BACnetTM Ethernet, TCP/IP, SNMP V1-2-3, FTP and HTTP.

It also manages a local connection between units through a pLAN network (μPC MEDIUM Local Area Network), allowing data and information to be exchanged between units, for a maximum of 15 units. This enables the reduction of the number of graphic terminals, since a single shared terminal can monitor all boards in the network.

Main functions:

  • Selection of operating mode: HEATING / COOLING / AUTO / VENTILATION
  • Selection of setpoint
  • Continuous control of the operating parameters
  • Display of the values measured by the sensors
  • Compressors time delays
  • Defrosting management (heat pump units)
  • Control of the supply air temperature
  • All-seasons operation via the condensation and evaporation pressure control
  • Setpoint compensation based on the outdoor temperature
  • Hourly and weekly schedule (possibility of 3 setpoints)
  • Fire protection
  • Diagnosis of faults and general alarm

Optional functions:
This control is used to manage addition components such as:

  • External air damper for the renewal of fresh air, depending on the temperature of the mixed air or depending on the air quality sensor
  • Mixing box for thermal, enthalpy or thermo-enthalpy free-cooling
  • Rotary heat exchanger. Wheel speed with on/off control or variable control
  • Cooling circuit for the recovery of the extracted air energy
  • Control of the overpressure
  • Zoning of the air fl ow up to 4 different areas
  • Low return temperature application
  • Auxiliary electrical heaters: two-stage with on/off control or singlestage with proportional control
  • Hot water coil with 3-way valve, with proportional or on/off control
  • Gas burner with proportional control

  • Energy meter and calculation of the cooling and heating capacities
  • Backlit LCD screen : VecticGD graphic terminal
  • Simple and easy to use, communication display
  • Troubleshooting
  • Continuous monitoring of operating parameters
  • Balancing of compressor and pump running times
  • Management of electronic expansion valves
  • Programmable hourly and weekly time schedules (six separate daily time periods with the possibility of different setpoints and/or switching the unit on/off)
  • Many digital and analogue inputs and outputs
  • TCO user terminal en option instead of VecticGD graphic terminal (without access to parameters)
  • Up to 4 ambient sensors
  • Remote control possible
  • Management of indoor air quality via CO2 sensor
  • Management of NEW interesting options:
    • Management up to 4 different zones (variable air flow)
    • Low return temperatura application
    • Heat recovery coil
    • Signal control for external humidifier
    • Supplementary condenser coil for dehumidification
    • Mountings 100% fresh air
    • Integration in a PLAN network (up to 15 units)
    • Communication interfaces: Modbus or Carel RS-485 output, open BMS communication protocol for (LonWorks,BACnet, Konnex and Ethernet)
    • BOSS and BOSS mini supervision system as an option
