Issue What is difference between valve rangeability and turndown ratio? Environment Valves Cause Definition of the terms helps explain the flow outcomes. Resolution Rangeability - maximum controllable flow divided by minimum controllable flow. Turndown ratio - normal maximum system flow divided by minimum controllable flow. Rangeability is the inherent characteristic of the valve and turndown ratio is installed characteristic.

Issue Can you cap the A port or B port of a mixing or diverting valve to change the valve to a two way (straight through) valve? Product Line Field Devices Environment VB-9313 series Cause Capping A port or B port of a mixing or diverting valve to change the valve to a two way (straight through) valve Resolution Schneider Electric does not recommend this modification for the VB-9313 series, because the valves are not equal percentage and therefore will not provide good control. The valve performs as a linear valve when both ports are utilized. These curves are not additive. Total flow is determined with both ports contributing. The valve will perform as a quick acting valve if the B port is plugged and a nominally linear valve if the A port is plugged. Additional problems that can occur are: Insufficient force to close off. Two way valves usually require high actuator forces to provide close off. Valves are not designed to be tight seating. Valves are rated ANSI III therefore flow leakage through the controlled coil can be expected. Flow direction through the valve can not be reversed. Flow must oppose the plug when closing. Flow aiding the plug may create hammer by causing the plug to overcome the actuator force and slam against the seat. When converted to a two way control valve for a variable flow system, 3-way valves tend to be extremely over-sized creating poor process control. After considering the pros and cons of making this type of modification, you may choose to proceed with this modification. The performance penalties should be less in chilled water applications and higher in hot water application.

Issue Satchwell ALE series Linear Actuator requires replacement. Environment Satchwell ALE series Linear Actuator installed on Satchwell MJF, MZ, MZF, VJF, VSF, VZ or VZF series Plug and Seat Valve Body.  Actuator type :- ALE series.  Cause Obsolescence of Satchwell ALE series Linear Actuator. Resolution Replace Satchwell ALE series Linear Actuator with S-E M800 Linear Actuator and Linkage Kit :-   Linkage kit to mount a M800 actuator to a Satchwell valve (MZ,MZF, VZ, VZF, VSF and MJF) = L2SV Replace ALE Actuator with M800 + L2SV combined part number 880-0650-000 Replace ALE with Auxilary Switch kit with M800-S2 + L2SV combined part number 880-0651-000 Just linkage kit = 880-0124-000 Just M800 = 880-0310-030 N.B.  Should the Satchwell ALE series Actuator include a wired Auxiliary Switch then the following Accessory should also be installed on the S-E M800 Actuator as appropriate :-  S2 - Two independent 24 volt 4amp AC-1 rated SPDT Auxiliary End Point Switches. (880-0104-000)   Particular care should be taken when selecting an S-E Forta M800 Actuator to replace an existing Satchwell ALE series Actuator. The S-E Forta M800 Actuator may be used to replace an existing Satchwell ALE series Actuator but it should be noted that where an existing Satchwell ALE series Actuator has been connected directly to a Satchwell Controller, an independent Transformer rated to provide the greater level of power required by a single S-E Forta M800 Actuator (50VA) will also be required. (e.g. S-E Transformer Type TR60)   Where an existing Satchwell ALE series Actuator has been connected via an independent Transformer, it is possible that the Transformer may have been rated to provide the level of power required by a single ALE series Actuator (9.5VA) only.   In such circumstances the existing independent Transformer may also require replacement by another independent Transformer, rated to provide the greater level of power required by a single S-E Forta M800 Actuator (50VA) (e.g. S-E Transformer Type TR60) Details of the Schneider Electric M800 Actuator may be viewed here Details of the Schneider Electric TR60 Transformer may be viewed here

Issue TC300 Series Networking Digital Fan Coil Thermostat - Modbus Protocol Documentation Product Line Field Devices Environment TC300 Series Digital Fan Coil Thermostats Cause Modbus protocol information is needed in order to perform Modbus integration to the TC300 Series Digital Fan Coil Thermostats. Resolution The TC303 thermostats come with the option of Modbus communication for both 2- and 4-pipe configurations. Modbus is an open, widespread and well established serial communication protocol used within building automation. The support of Modbus communication allows simple integration of the TC303 thermostats to a building management system, using standard Modbus serial communications. The following models provide support for Modbus connectivity: TC303-3A2LM TC303-3A4LM TC303-3A2DLMS TC303-3A4DLMS TC303-3A2DPMS TC303-3A4DPMS The TC303 thermostats communicate as a Modbus RTU slave device over a serial RS-485 connection, allowing for the transfer of real time data. Thermostats manufactured from November 2018 (2018-W44-4)* onward can be configured to communicate at 9600 (default) or 4800 bps. The communication parameters for TC-300 thermostats manufactured prior to this date cannot be adjusted and are fixed as follows: 4800bps Baud Rate 8 Data Bits Odd Parity 1 Stop Bit The actual Modbus address of the thermostat can be set for each individual device on the RS-485 network.

Issue MN-Sx, MN-SxHT sensors calibration Environment I/A Series MicroNet Sensors (MN-Sxxx series) Cause Sensor readings inaccurate Resolution 1. Calibration in WorkPlace Tech application program Calibrate the temperature and / or humidity offset in the Hardware Wizard. Enter a positive or negative offset value. For examples, -0.5 or 0.5. The WorkPlace Tech application has to be compiled and downloaded to the controller for the offset to take effect.   2.
