STAIR_PRESS_CTRL

Stairwell pressurisation with anti-windup PI fan control, over-pressure relief modulation and latched code-window trouble.

Validated application blockBAS · Lighting, IAQ & EnergyIEC 61131-3IEC 61499v1.0.0

When to use it

Use STAIR_PRESS_CTRL when a stair shaft is pressurised on a fire-alarm command through a variable-speed fan and a modulating relief damper, and the differential pressure has to be held inside a code window while doors open and close.
