Is the standby fan activated by current monitoring of the duty fan, rather than a pressure sensor?

Yes, our Pods are designed to activate the standby fan based on current monitoring of the duty fan, not through a pressure sensor.

Is the standby fan intended to run at maximum volume using a Direct Online (DOL) starter while bypassing controls?

This topic has generated various opinions. While the SCA guide suggests running the fan at 100% on DOL, we believe this approach is outdated, especially with the availability of inverter control and advanced monitoring systems. Allowing fans to run unchecked could lead to overheating and potential fire risks. Our solution offers a compromise: if the standby fan loses communication, it will continue to operate according to the last command received. This means if the fan was in boost mode, it will remain in boost; if it was in Manual Override (MOE), it will stay in that mode; and if it was turned off, it will remain off, all while utilising the inverter instead of DOL.

Can we have a bespoke Pod with a separated control panel?

We sell the Pod as a complete unit; however, customers have the flexibility to modify it on-site if they prefer to have the fan and control panel remote from each other. It is important to ensure that if the control panel is mounted remotely, it should be located in the same fire zone as the fans, especially if an Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) is involved.

We want more stringent acoustic requirements than your standard attenuation. Do you have another option?

Yes, we can install a podded coned attenuator inside a standard frame, which offers improved noise absorption. Please note that this option may incur additional costs, and we might need to upgrade the Pod to compensate for the loss of airflow. This solution is ideal for meeting stringent acoustic standards.

Is the electrical data in the Pod data sheet provided per phase?

Yes, the electrical figures listed in the technical data sheet are already based on a three-phase configuration.

What is the recommended testing frequency for the Pods?

A weekly basic test is ideal, but the frequency is ultimately at the discretion of the building maintenance team. Typical testing durations can range from 30 seconds to 5 minutes, depending on their preference for confirming system performance. Additionally, every six months, a more comprehensive service should be conducted by a dedicated specialist. During this service, the fan may run for up to approximately 5 minutes to verify correct operation and component functionality.
