Fume Hood Controller Owner's Manual

In addition to setting up the purge sequence to effectively handle the exhaust needs, decisions must be made on how to use the information available at the central reporting station. Consult your local Siemens Building Technologies, Inc. representative for more information on central reporting and trending of emergency purge information.

Fail-safe Operation

If the Fume Hood Controller or one of its accessories fails, then a failure mode sequence will be initiated.

Fume Hood Controller

If the Fume Hood Controller power fails, the exhaust flow control device will go to the full open position. Since there would be no power to the controller, no LEDs or display will be available on the ODP.

NOTE: If the power fails to both the exhaust fan and the controller, there will be no indication except for the absence of the noise that the air makes during normal operation.

ODP

If the ODP fails, the controller will continue to control the fume hood face velocity. However, no display or audible alarming will be available.

Differential Pressure Transmitter

If the differential pressure transmitter fails, the controller will control the exhaust flow control device to the fully open position. The ODP will display FFF and GENERAL FAILURE.

Electronic Actuator Assembly

If the electronic actuator or interface board fails then alarms are displayed on the ODP indicating unsafe operating conditions.

Pneumatic Actuator

If the actuator fails due to a leak, then the exhaust flow control device will go to the full open position. Alarms will be displayed on the ODP indicating unsafe operating conditions.

AO-P Module

If the AO-P module fails, alarms will be displayed on the ODP indicating unsafe operating conditions.
