Product Description
ETC ERM-FPU-24 PTAC Temperature Setback Controller - 24VAC/DC
Overview
The Temperature Setback Controller for Packaged Terminal Air Conditioners (PTAC) uses wireless technology to monitor a hotel room’s environment and deliver setback operation during vacancy periods. This allows facilities to upgrade hotel suites quickly with occupancy based energy controls without having to replace existing equipment.
Adding wireless energy control to hospitality suites provides immediate savings for facilities and operators while ensuring the guest experience is not negatively affected. Installation time of wireless controls is much shorter than traditional wired systems so facilities can upgrade suite by suite, often between guest visits.
Integrated temperature-limiting features ensure suite temperature never exceeds pre-defined thresholds during vacancy so guest comfort is never compromised. An additional AC lockout feature can also limit the lower temperature level during occupancy for additional energy savings.
Other features include telegram repeating and BEMS system integration allowing the controller to be used both in distributed control applications or as a component of a centralized system. The controller supports radio Range Confirmation®, a feature that allows installers to test signal strength for optimal sensor placement and system integrity.
