Belimo’s Zone Valve Series: For On/Off Control in Compact Areas.

Do you have a need for zone valve control, but the operational area is unyielding or compressed?  The Belimo Electronic Zone Series may be your optimal solution.  Designed for compact areas where On/Off control is needed using 120 or 24VAC, the Zone Valve Series may be best used in a hydronic system application.

Belimo's Zone Series Compact Valve Actuators

Belimo’s ZONE Series provides an economical way to produce individual zones or equipment isolation within these systems.  Employing one pump and multiple zone valves, the flow operation may be stopped, started, or diverted through the system to enable individual area (or room) comfort control resulting in energy economizing.

The ZONE Series is frequently applied on fan coil units, baseboards, or other applications that require “fail-safe” execution or 2-wire control.  The valve is appropriate for a hydronic system with constant or variable flow. 

They are available to function as a 2 or 3-way valve, and in either sweat or NPT connections of ½, ¾, or 1”.  The overall unit size is minimal, coming in at roughly 4” long, by 4.5” tall by 2.5” wide, perfect for tight spaces.  Many of the operational specifications are disclosed on the datasheet (link here).   

These units are versatile, with installation allowing for a horizontal or vertical manner.  Durability is a plus, with the valve body made of forged brass and the stem of stainless steel.  The body pressure rating is 300 psi and close off pressure range is 20-75 psi, and can service chilled or hot water, or 50% glycol.

E-Controls.net offers 137 different variations, covering many possible requirements your system may have.  Stop by and check us out today for these or any of your building automation supply needs.

Honeywell Analytics’ Sensepoint XCD Series: The Solution for Monitoring Toxic, Combustible, and Oxygen Gas Hazards.

 

The Honeywell Sensepoint XCD Series

Honeywell Analytics’ Sensepoint XCD Series transmitters offer complete gas monitoring both indoors and outdoors in potentially explosive atmospheres.  With many key features and benefits, the Sensepoint XCD stands above the competition in all phases.

FLEXIBILITY:  For ‘hard to reach’ areas, or where the transmitter must be separated from the sensor, Honeywell has designed the XCD with remote monitoring capabilities, providing the ideal solution.  The sensor can be mounted up to 100 ft (30m) away from the transmitter, enabling points of detection in areas not easily accessible. 

EASE OF USE:  These devices are self-configuring at startup.  Modifying the detector operation can be done via magnetic switches, thus no opening of unit needed.  The tri-color backlit LCD with simple status indication is user friendly.  The XCD was designed for maximum ease of use. The unit also comes with Modbus communications for remote diagnostics.

COST EFFECTIVE:  Honeywell’s Sensepoint XCD series reduces costs by minimizing the training required to operate, enabling a plug-in sensor replacement system, and that every model already includes all necessary accessories.

ALL-IN-ONE SOLUTION:  Sensepoint XCD offers flammable (catalytic or infrared), toxic, and oxygen versions.  Housing options include explosion-proof stainless steel or aluminum.  Applications served include new or retrofit, indoor or outdoor. 

The complete Sensepoint XCD from Honeywell Analytics is available now at E-Controls.net, your online source for building automation supplies.  We offer a wide selection of building peripheral devices for gas detection and IAQ monitoring.  Complimentary UPS Ground shipping provided on orders over $100.  Visit E-Controls.net today!

Product Spotlight: Gentex 7139CS-C Single/Multiple Station Smoke Alarm

Gentex 7139CS-C Single/Multiple Station Smoke Alarm


Ideal for commercial residential applications, the 7139CS series from Gentex remains a popular option for those buildings requiring compliance with ANSI/UL, IBC/IFC/IRC and NFPA Standards.

These smoke alarms are photoelectric in sensing, meaning they use a light beam to detect smoke, which is deemed more effective at sounding when fire develops from a smoldering source according the NFPA.

Where both audible and visual alarms are required, the 7139CS fits the bill with it’s visual signaling appliance, designed to give early and reliable detection of smoke. Included is a 9-volt battery backup to the 120 VAC power requirement. The 7139LS version includes a 9-foot power cord, making this version completely portable.

Once activated, the 7139CS(LS) models will initiate a 90 dB audible signal along with a high intensity strobe that flashes once per second at 177 candela.

Other features include:

· Form C Relay contact for remote annunciation
· A patented 3-position test switch.
· A horn frequency of 3100Hz
· Nominal 2.5% Sensitivity
· 5:1 Signal to Noise Ratio
· Warranted for 1 year from date of purchase


These and several other Gentex photoelectric smoke detectors are now available at E-Controls.net, your online source for building automation supplies. We offer complimentary UPS Ground Shipping on orders over $100. Visit us today at www.e-controls.net or call toll-free at 866-215-4043, or reach out to us via email at support@e-controls.net.

Setra Lite™ Series Makes Monitoring Room Pressure Simple!


The Setra Lite™ Series

Introducing the easiest, most basic room pressure visual monitor that will find out there!  Setra Systems has developed this simplified solution with their new LITE series; green means “good to go” and red indicates an alarm.

The bright light ring on the monitor is clearly visible from a distance and varying angles.  The pressure value on the digital display allows for always-on or momentary indication, and a Positive or Negative room mode.  

It's as basic as it gets with the status and alarm indications.


Designed to install neatly within a single gang electric box, the Lite provides a visual representation of the pressure by way of Setra’s capacitive pressure sensor.  The Lite canalso integrate with your building management system via an analog output for pressure signaling.  It also includes connectivity to the Setra FLEX™ Environmental Room Monitor.  Most notably, the Lite was designed to replace the previously burdensome “ball/tube through wall” pressure indicators.

Typical applications for the Setra Lite include sterile processing and storage, laundry services, hospital room monitoring and infectious control. 

The unit can be configured for 7 different transducer ranges and boasts and accuracy of +/- 0.5%.  It is now available at E-Controls.net, where we offer complimentary UPS Ground Shipping on qualifying orders. E-Controls.net, your online source for building automation supplies.
