4 SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTION 1.1 Description The AV3000 airflow control valve - AccuValve - incorporates high accuracy airflow sensing with a revolutionary but simple design. The AccuValve divides the airflow into two equal chambers using an airfoil shaped compression section. Each chamber is comprised of a vortex shedding airflow sensor, a modulating control blade and a static regain section. As air enters the chambers it accelerates and compresses, creating a laminar zone optimum for measuring airflow velocity. The vortex shedding airflow sensors provide a digital pulse train to the airflow transmitter which is directly proportional to the air flow velocity in each chamber of the AccuValve. The AccuValve transmitter provides an extremely accurate and repeatable analog output signal representing volumetric airflow which is compatible with all major BMS DDC controllers. 1.2 AV3100 Major Components Identified Airflow Transmitter Drive Shaft Electric Actuator Access Cover Valve Housing Round AccuValve Follower Shaft Modulating Control Blades Linkage Airflow Sensor Static Regain Section Compression Section Airflow Outlet View Airflow Inlet View Contents of this Manual are Subject to Change Without Notification Page 1

9 SECTION 5 - INSTALLATION 1. Read all instructions completely before installing the valve. NOTE: Wear eye protection, protective gloves and clothing suitable for working with sheet metal which may have sharp edges. 2. Verify the tag number located on the valve label matches the HVAC schedule. 3. Select optimum mounting location for the valve. NOTE: The AccuValve does not require straight inlet duct runs to operate properly, however it s always best to locate any duct device away from transitions and bends to minimize impact on system static pressure. 4. Allow a minimum clearance of 14 inches (356 mm) unobstructed access to the transmitter, actuator and valve access cover. 5. To support the weight of the valve, install duct hangers within 12 inches (305 mm) of valve connections. NOTE: Reference Section 4 for valve weights. 6. After the duct section is properly supported to carry the weight of the valve, install valve into the duct in accordance with the Airflow Direction Label located on the side of the valve. Position valve so the transmitter, actuator and access cover are easily accessible. NOTE: The AccuValve is not position sensitive. It can be installed in any plane or rotational axis without having impact on the factory calibration. 7. Reference the appropriate diagram provided in this section for installation details. NOTE: Screws, nuts, fasteners, duct sealant, hangers, companion flanges and gaskets are NOT provided by Tek-Air..

15 SECTION 7 OUTPUT CONFIGURATION Each AccuValve is tested and calibrated in the factory and performance is verified to ensure accuracy. The transmitter Full Scale Range is set per the table in Section 2 and the Analog Output Signal has been configured to provide either Voltage (0-10v or 2-10v) or Current (0-20mA or 4-20mA) by using Jumpers JP1 and JP4. The factory default transmitter output is 2-10v unless specified otherwise at the time of placing order. If desired, the Output Signal can be reconfigured in the field by setting Jumpers JP1 and JP4 as shown below. AV3000 Transmitter Desired Output Jumper Positions Signal JP4 JP1 4 to 20mA 2-3 OFF 2 to 10 v 1-2 OFF 0 to 20mA 2-3 ON 0 to 10 v 1-2 ON Transmitter pictured is configured for 2-10v output: JP4 is set 1-2 and JP1 is OFF.

16 SECTION 8 TEK-AIR CONTROLLER DIRECT INPUT 8.1 Overview The Tek-Air SmartLab (SLC2000) and Fume Hood (FVC2000) Controllers can be ordered from the factory with an AccuValve Direct input board installed. This board enables a direct connection between the AV3000 transmitter and Tek-Air Controller using the VorTek Direct input, which is normally reserved for the VT4000 probe. The picture to the right shows a SmartLab Controller with an AccuValve Direct Input board installed Fume Hood Controller Applications: All FVC2000 applications utilizing the AV3000 must use the AccuValve Direct input board to connect the AV3000 to the FVC controller. If the Fume Hood Controller does not include the AccuValve Direct input board, the controller will not have the ability to read the airflow volume signal provided by the AV SmartLab Applications: Because the SmartLab Controller includes other analog inputs in addition to the VorTek Direct input, the AccuValve Direct input board is not always required for SmartLab applications. The AccuValve Direct input board is only required for utilizing the SLC2000 VorTek Direct input. 8.2 Field Wiring Refer to Section 6 for field wiring instructions. AccuValve Direct 8.3 AV3000 Transmitter Configuration In order for the AV3000 Transmitter to operate properly with the AccuValve Direct Input Board the transmitter output jumpers must be configured for 2-10 v operation and the Transmitter Full-Scale Range must remain set to the factory default values as shown below.

18 SECTION 9 MAINTENANCE 9.1 Maintenance Due to the simplistic design of the AccuValve and high reliability of the vortex shedding airflow sensor and transmitter, scheduled maintenance is not required. However, each AccuValve does include an access cover which can be removed to inspect the airflow sensors if desired Round Valve Access Cover Equipment Required: 5/16 deep socket with ratchet drive or power driver, safety glasses and safety gloves suitable for sheet metal working. Access Cover 1. Loosen the 5/16 lock-nut, but do not remove it from the bolt. The nut only needs to be loose enough to allow the access door to slide forward. Loosen Nut CAUTION: If the lock-nut is removed from the bolt, the access cover can spring open possibly causing injury due to the sharp edges. Be sure to take precautions against this. 2. Using two hands; squeeze the access cover and slide it forward on the valve enough to uncover the access hole. Slide Cover Forward 3. Once the cover is slid forward, the airflow sensors can be visually inspected. 4. When inspection is complete, slide the access cover over the access hole, being careful not to damage gasket around the hole. Inspect Sensors 5. Verify the access cover is in position to completely cover the hole. Secure in place by tightening the 5/16 lock-nut using care not to over tighten.

19 9.1.1 Rectangular Valve Access Cover Equipment Required: 5/16 socket with ratchet drive or power driver, safety glasses and safety gloves suitable for sheet metal working. Access Cover 1. The access cover is secured to the valve using (12) Tek-Screws. Remove the (12) Tek-Screws using a 5/16 socket and put the screws aside for reinstalling the cover later. Remove (12) Screws 2. Remove the access cover from the valve. Inspect Sensors 3. Once the cover is removed the sensors are accessible for inspection. 4. When inspection is complete, place the access cover in position and secure using the (12) screws previously removed. Contents of this Manual are Subject to Change Without Notification Page 16
