QCA-ZV44 Application Controller

COSYS Building Controls

QCA-2V44

Our COSYS Application and System Controls work along with our enterprise software platform OspreyFMS to provide a meaningful context.

The QCA-ZV44 is a native BACnet® controller with an integrated airflow sensor and damper actuator for VAV applications, available in both configurable and fully programmable versions.
The ZV44 communicates using BACnet MS/TP on its RS-485 main LAN port. 

Features

  • Local scheduling, trending, and alarming support
  • Built-in configurable VAV algorithms for quick setup and commissioning
  • Programmable option allows customization for
    non-standard sequences or repurposing unused I/O
  • Universal outputs provide flexibility for any combination of analog, binary, or floating output stages
  • Firmware upgrade and database load / save over the network
  • RS-485 subLAN supports up to 4 DNS or eZNS LINKnet network sensors, or up to 4 EnOcean devices with addition of a CON-ENOC EnOcean gateway

Applications

The QCA-ZV44 covers a wide range of VAV configurations including multi-stage reheat with analog, binary or floating control, and series or parallel fan boxes.
The QCA-ZV44 includes built-in algorithms that are easy to configure for typical VAV/VVT applications.
The QCA-ZV44 is a fully programmable model that allows you to either create your own completely custom zone programs or modify the built-in algorithm’s behavior.
