Small Ducts and Rooftop Unit Controllers

OAC-4000-US

Outdoor Airflow Controller with Analog Control Output Signal for Proportional Actuators and Analog Input Fan Speed Controllers

The OAC-4000-US is an advanced outdoor air controller with a single integrated universal standoff mount probe designed for precise airflow measurement and control. It interfaces with BACnet MS/TP CO sensors and occupancy counters for demand control ventilation (DCV). It modulates a proportional damper actuator or variable speed fan to maintain airflow when an external binary trigger is active. The controller optimizes CO2-DCV by adjusting outdoor airflow between user-defined limits based on a fixed CO2 setpoint or occupancy levels using a built-in algorithm or external counter. It supports full BACnet MS/TP integration with read/write privileges and offers an optional RS-485 signal isolator for isolated networks.

FEATURES

Specifications

FUNCTIONALITY

Outdoor Air Control (OAC) Modes Supported

FLOW: Maintains a user defined airflow setpoint

CO2: Maintains a user defined CO2 level by resetting the outdoor airflow setpoint (requires a CO2 sensor)

CO2/OAF: Maintains a calculated outdoor airflow setpoint based on the estimated ventilation zone population (requires a CO2 sensor)

COUNT: Maintains a calculated outdoor airflow setpoint based on the occupancy counter population (requires an occupancy counter)

FIXED: Maintains a fixed damper position (no control)

Unoccupied Air Control (UAC) Mode Option: Yes, maintains a user defined airflow setpoint

Notification Alarms

“Unoccupied Mode” High/Low Airflow Alarm

“Outdoor Airflow Mode” High/Low Airflow Alarm
