Zone Controller
Part Numbers:
33ZCFANTRM — VAV Fan Terminal Zone Controller
33ZCVAVTRM — Single Duct Air Terminal Zone Controller
33ZCSECTRM — Secondary Terminal Zone Controller
Part 1 — General
1.01 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION:
The zone controller is a single duct, fan powered, Vari-
able Air Volume (VAV) terminal control with a
factory-integrated controller and actuator. The zone
controller maintains precise temperature control in the
space by operating the terminal fan and regulating the
flow of conditioned air into the space. Buildings with
diverse loading conditions can be supported by con-
trolling reheat or supplemental heat.
The Single Duct Air Terminal Zone Controller
(33ZCVAVTRM) provides dedicated control func-
tions for single duct terminals with modulating heat or
up to 2 stages of heat.
The VAV Fan Terminal Zone Controller
(33ZCFANTRM) provides dedicated control func-
tions for series fan or parallel fan powered terminals,
single duct terminals with 3 stages of heat, or as a pri-
mary controller for dual duct or zone pressure control
applications.
When the VAV Fan Terminal Zone Controller is used
in conjunction with a secondary terminal and the
33ZCSECTRM secondary terminal zone controller,
either dual duct or zone pressurization applications can
be supported.
1.02 QUALITY ASSURANCE:
A. The control shall be UL or ETL listed to comply
with UL Standard 873; Temperature Indicating and
Regulating Equipment, and UL916-PAZX; Energy
Management.
B. The control shall meet ASHRAE standard, 62-1989
“Ventilation For Acceptable Indoor Air Quality”
(including addendum 62a-1990).
1.03 DELIVERY, STORAGE, AND HANDLING:
Unit shall be stored and handled per manufacturer’s
recommendation.
Part 2 — Products
2.01 EQUIPMENT:
A. Each zone controller shall include a microproces-
sor based controller and shall be an integral part of
the equipment. The zone controller shall control
each function of its associated terminal. All appli-
cation software shall be resident in the zone con-
troller’s memory and shall be factory pre-tested
and pre-configured.
B. The zone controller shall provide stand-alone oper-
ation but shall include the inherent capability to
being added on a network without the addition of
any hardware. Systems that require an intermediate
controller shall not be acceptable.
C. The zone controller shall not require a battery. All
configuration data shall be stored indefinitely in
non-volatile memory. Systems that require a bat-
tery to store data are not acceptable.
D. The zone controller shall be designed to be easily
mounted in a standard NEMA type enclosure,
attached to the unit without special rails or mount-
ing hardware and as local and national electrical
code dictates.
E. All electrical components and control transformers
shall be field mounted and wired inside the control
box, as applicable.
F. Each zone controller shall include the ability to
maintain a 365-day clock with holiday functions
and shall also support network broadcasts of time
for clock synchronization. Each zone controller
shall provide the capability to provide occupancy
scheduling from its own local time schedule, or a
time schedule within another controller on the net-
work. Timed override requests through the space
temperature sensor override button shall be per-
formed by each zone controller without any net-
work requirement. The zone controller shall be
capable of interfacing to a portable PC for config-
uring, or altering the configuration, setting address,
uploads, downloads, etc.
2.02 LINKAGE SYSTEM CAPABILITY:
A. All terminals that are serviced by a common air
handler shall be “LINKED” together to form a sin-
gle virtual load and operate in unison as a complete
system.
B. One zone controller shall be designated as a link-
age master between the Air Handler Controller and
its associated terminals. The networked zone con-
troller(s), through the linkage master, shall inter-
face with a controller installed on the primary air
source.
C. The primary air system interface shall be a factory
supplied microprocessor based controller that
allows total closed loop system control.
D. The Building Control System communications net-
work and factory provided software shall allow
dynamic interaction (linkage) of the air terminals
with the primary air source to create a complete Air
Distribution System (ADS) as later described
within this specification. The bus that serves the
zone controller(s) and air source shall include the
ability to run at 38.4K bps, as a minimum.
Systems that do not include inherent linkage soft-
ware shall state such in their bid/proposal.
2.03 ALARM/ALERT PROCESSING:
A. The zone controller shall contain routine(s) to pro-
cess alarms and alerts. Alarm/alert processing shall
consist of a scan of all applicable point types and
operating conditions.
B. Certain analog alarms/alerts shall only be moni-
tored when the zone controller is in the occupied
mode (i.e., relative humidity, indoor air quality sen-
sor, etc.).
