VMA1400 Series Overview and
Engineering Guidelines

Introduction
                   The Variable Air Volume Modular Assembly (VMA) 1400 Series is a
                   configurable, integrated module that includes a Variable Air Volume
                   (VAV) controller, differential pressure sensor, and, with the exception
                   of the VMA1430, an actuator.
                   Note:     This document focuses on the VMA1410, 1420, and 1430
                   controllers. The VMA1400 Series also includes the VMA1440, which
                   is used exclusively as part of the Metasys® Zoning Package. See the
                   Metasys Zoning Package Product Bulletin (LIT-639050) and the
                   Metasys Zoning Package Overview Technical Bulletin (LIT-639100)
                   for information on this specialized product.
                   The VMA engineering procedures vary from location to location. The
                   information provided here is a general engineering guideline. Where
                   available, use the Advanced Installation Management (AIM) tools for
                   developing schedules and drawings.
                   This document provides a VMA1400 Series overview and describes
                   how to:
                   determine VAV box requirements
                   establish the room schedule
                   develop bills of material and place orders
                   configure the VMA

               The VMA is a configurable, integrated module that includes a VAV
               controller and differential pressure sensor. The VMA1400 Series
               includes three models:
               VMA1410 (cooling only, includes actuator)
               VMA1420 (cooling with reheat, includes actuator)
               VMA1430 (controller and differential pressure sensor only for use
                 with an external incremental or proportional actuator)
               Note:     The VMA1400 Series also includes the VMA1440, which is
               used exclusively as part of the Metasys Zoning Package. See the
               Metasys Zoning Package Product Bulletin (LIT-639050) and the
               Metasys Zoning Package Overview Technical Bulletin (LIT-639100)
               for information on this specialized product.
               The models are designed for pressure independent, single duct
               (all VMA1400 Series models), and dual duct (VMA1420 and
               1430 only) applications. The VMA1420 and 1430 models can be used
               with parallel or series fan-powered boxes.
               Note:    The VMA1420 can be configured for the Metasys Zoning
               Package application, but the internal pressure sensor can only be used
               for monitoring purposes. Refer to the Metasys Zoning Package
               Commissioning Technical Bulletin (LIT-639250).

VAV System
                   Theory of Operation
                   A VAV air handling system typically consists of a single air handling
                   unit and multiple terminal units. Terminal units typically consist of a
                   damper and flow sensing probe installed in an enclosure. VAV
                   terminal units are also called VAV boxes. VAV systems are
                   predominantly single duct, but about 15% are dual duct designs.
                   In either case, the supply air temperature and static pressure of the
                   air handling unit are controlled by an AHU (Air Handling Unit)
                   controller, while each zone has its own VMA controller.
                   The air handling unit typically maintains a static pressure in the range
                   of 125 to 375 Pa (0.5 to 1.5 inches water column (w.c.) inside the
                   longest run of duct away from the supply fan. This ensures that each
                   VAV terminal unit has enough pressure at its inlet to deliver the
                   maximum required flow of air into the space. The supply temperature
                   is typically in the range of 7 to 16°C (45 to 60°F) for a single duct
                   VAV system or the cold deck of a dual duct VAV system. The hot
                   deck temperature of a dual duct VAV system is typically in the range
                   of 29 to 49°C (85 to 120°F).
                   VAV systems are most easily understood by first considering a
                   cooling-only application. As the zone temperature increases, the VAV
                   controller opens the VAV box damper to allow more cool air to reach
                   the space. The volume of air required to maintain a particular zone
                   temperature setpoint is dictated by the size of the space and the
                   internal and external heat loads. In addition, since the size of the VAV
                   box dictates its maximum cooling capacity, a VAV box’s performance
                   is dependent upon the mechanical engineer’s correct box sizing for
                   each zone.
                   Sometimes the size, and thus the capacity, of the VAV box may not
                   match the zone loads. If the installed unit is too small, insufficient
                   cooling results and noise may be emitted at high flow. If the installed
                   unit is too large, proper control may be difficult to attain, since a small
                   change in damper position causes a large change in airflow. Boxes can
                   be oversized to allow for quieter operation or reserve cooling capacity
                   at the expense of controllability.
VMA1400 Series Overview and Engineering Guidelines Technical Bulletin    7

    The VMA quickly adjusts the damper position to new conditions, and
    minimizes position hunting and motor runtime. The fast response
    stepper actuator on the VMA1410 and 1420 drives the damper from
    full open to full closed in 30 seconds. This significantly reduces the
    time to commission a VAV box. Response time of the VMA1430 with
    an external synchronous actuator is dependent upon the speed of the
    actuator used. The VMA incorporates flow feedback to accurately
    position the damper. Control performance metrics are recorded and are
    available via the Metasys Operator Workstation (OWS) for timely
    indication of system problems.
    The VMA is configured for most VAV applications. Configuration
    Tools (HVAC PRO software), Version 7.00 or later builds the
    applications for VMA1410/1420. Version 7.02 or later includes the
    VMA1430 as well as the VMA1410/1420.

Definition of Terms
                 Autocalibration
                 To correct for pressure sensor drifts over time, the VMA has an
                 Autocalibration mode that automatically compensates for temperature
                 and humidity effects.

                 N2 Switches
                 Single-pole, single-throw switches used to set the N2 address of a
                 controller.

                 Room Schedule
                 A set of information listing all parameters required in a room or zone.

                 Test and Balance (TAB)
                 Test and Balance (TAB) is a function performed to ensure the installed
                 system operates to design specifications. Balancing of the VMA zone
                 indicates whether the VAV terminal box is able to achieve
                 minimum/maximum airflow settings. TAB must also be performed for
                 the air handler and the air duct distribution to the VAV box.

                 Zones
                 When designing VMA systems, it is critical to establish zones
                 correctly to take full advantage of VMA’s exceptional accuracy and
                 rapid response capabilities.
                 The designer strives for the most uniform indoor environmental
                 conditions possible. A single thermostatic device (room sensor)
                 controls each area. Also, you may consider a zone any area where the
                 load is approximately the same for every square foot of floor space.
                 Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system zones fall
                 into two major categories: exterior zones and interior zones. Exterior
                 zones are spaces directly affected by outdoor weather conditions.
                 Interior zones are not influenced by heat losses or outdoor air
                 conditions. Interior zones usually have cooling or ventilation
                 requirements only.
                 Further division of interior/exterior zones is occasionally required to
                 accommodate different occupancy schedules and/or solar loads.
                 Variations in internal loading also dictate the selection of separate
                 zones. For example, in a restaurant, the kitchen has much different
                 heating and cooling requirements than the customer seating area.

Room Sensor Placement
                    When considering room sensor placement for each zone:
                        •   Verify that the room sensor is the correct one for the
                            application.
                        •   Review architectural requirements such as furniture height and
                            location, aesthetics, and type of mounting. Wall plates are
                            required if mounting on a conduit handibox.
                        •   Review room sensor location. The best room sensor location is
                            on an interior wall, about 1.5 m (5 feet) above the floor, out of
                            direct sunlight, out of the direct path of supply air from the
                            diffuser, away from heat sources, such as equipment, machines,
                            and perimeter radiation, and away from doors and other draft
                            sources. Local codes or disabilities act requirements
                            occasionally influence the actual mounting height.
                        •   Do not locate a sensor near zone boundaries, where primary
                            influence is from an adjacent zone.

Pressure Independence
                    The pressure independent VMA employs patented self-tuning,
                    cascaded proportional/integral control loops. The zone temperature
                    loop samples space temperature and resets the airflow setpoint
                    between the minimum and maximum flow settings. Since inlet duct
                    static pressure influences the amount of air passing through the VAV
                    box, the VMA airflow loop samples airflow via a flow pickup in the
                    box inlet. It modulates the damper to control the flow. Thus, the
                    VAV box flow is independent of duct static pressure.
                    The engineering basis for this method of control is that the temperature
                    of a space with a constant load is linearly proportional to the flow of
                    conditioned air into the space. The engineer must accurately determine
                    the required maximum and minimum flow for each space based on
                    heating, cooling, and ventilation loads.

VMA Airflow Rate
                    The VMA determines airflow rate by dynamic pressure measurement.
                    The VMA contains a Differential Pressure Transducer (DPT) to sense
                    velocity pressure in pressure independent VAV applications.
                    The DPT is connected to the VAV box airflow pickups. It measures
                    velocity pressure and generates a proportional voltage signal. The
                    VMA reads voltage signal from the DPT and converts it to airflow in
                    cubic feet per minute (cfm), liters/second, or cubic meters/hour.
                    Calibration is not required, with the exception of zero calibration,
                    which the controller performs automatically as set in the configuration.
           VMA1400 Series Overview and Engineering Guidelines Technical Bulletin       11

               The DPT provides maintenance-free performance within the control
               range of 1 to 18 m/s (200 to 3500 feet per minute [fpm]) when used as
               recommended.
               Pressure independent VAV terminal boxes use an airflow pickup
               device, which amplifies the airflow velocity pressure between 1.5 to
               3 times (varies by manufacturer). The airflow velocity and the gain of
               the airflow pickup produce an accurately measured pressure
               difference.
               The VMA Autocalibration function helps reduce the temperature
               effect error by zeroing offset errors. As the ambient temperature
               swings relative to the temperature at which the Autocalibration
               occurred, an offset error occurs. In the worst case, the offset error
               ranges up to ±0.179 Pascal per °C (±0.0004 inch w.c. per °F).
               When calibration occurs, this error becomes zero.
               The error envelope becomes smaller with increased airflow pickup
               gain and with smaller ambient temperature deviations at the
               transmitter location.

Power Source
               You can use one 24 VAC power trunk to power multiple VMAs.
               Transformers of up to 100 VA can be centrally located and the
               secondary run can be without conduit (if allowed by local authority)
               and without concern about polarity. When using a single transformer
               to power multiple VMAs, use a wire gauge large enough to handle the
               current and minimize the voltage drop. The voltage drop depends on
               the current draw, wire gauge, and wire length. For more details about
               transformer wiring and calculating the number of VMAs per
               transformer, see the Mounting and Wiring Variable Air Volume
               Modular Assembly (VMA) 1400 Series Controllers Technical Bulletin
               (LIT-6363125).
               Note:    The 24 V power transformer must be UL/Canadian
               Standards Association (CSA) listed as NEC Class 2 Power Limited.
               See NEC Article 725/Class 2 (30 VRMS maximum) and
               (100 VA maximum).

N2 Bus Rules
                    The N2 Bus is the interface between a supervisory controller
                    (Metasys Network Control Module [NCM] or N30) and all application
                    specific controllers in a Metasys Network. The VMA is
                    self-terminating in that there are no End-of-Line (EOL) jumpers to set.
                    However, you must set one EOL for each N2 Bus, usually at the NCM
                    or N30. Table 2 summarizes the rules for installing the N2 Bus.

Inputs and Outputs
                         For specific input/output range, cable length, wire size issues, refer to
                         the Mounting and Wiring Variable Air Volume Modular Assembly
                         (VMA) 1400 Series Controllers Technical Bulletin (LIT-6363125).
                         Note:     All terminals are spade lug type except the N2 terminals,
                         which are removable screw terminals. Optional two-, three-, or
                         four-position kits (available for order) convert the spade lugs to
                         removable screw terminals.

Table 3: Inputs and Outputs
 Input/Output    Description
 Analog Inputs   There are two external and one internal analog inputs on the VMA1410 and four external
                 and one internal analog inputs on the VMA1420 and 1430. They are preset for either
                 temperature/setpoint or voltage. There are no jumpers to set. Shielding is not required, but if
                 used, earth ground the shield only at the VMA. You may use 0.6 mm (24 AWG) twisted pair
                 wire; however, this reduces the allowable wire length due to the resistance for Nickel (Ni),
                 Platinum (Pt), or Silicon (Si) sensors. To minimize sensor error caused by field wiring, the
                 total resistance of the nickel, silicon, or platinum resistive sensor wiring should be less than
                 3 ohms. The NTC sensor accepts a larger wire resistance. This wiring error effect can be
                 corrected through HVAC PRO software in the VMAs analog input.
                 Do not share the temperature/setpoint common wire (COM) with any other sensors,
                 transmitters, or the Zone Bus. The maximum voltage drop on the common wire must be less
                 than 1 mV.
 Binary Inputs   There are three dry contact binary inputs on the VMA. An override button on the room
                 sensor initiates a Temporary Occupancy or Time Override mode of operation when pressed.
                 When using the TE-6700 or TE-7000 (Europe only) sensor, TempOcc shorts BI-1 directly.
                 Hold for 2.0 seconds.
                 The binary inputs on the VMA are inactive when open. They are active when you apply a
                 contact closure to binary input common (COM).
 Analog          There are two analog outputs on the VMA1420 and VMA1430. The VMA1410 has no
 Outputs         analog outputs. The load connects between the analog output and analog output common
                 (COM) terminals. Each output generates a proportional voltage output of 0 to 10 VDC. The
                 maximum load for each output is 10 mA with a minimum load resistance of 1000 ohms.
                 Note that two analog outputs are available on the VMA1430 for proportional reheat valves
                 or a proportional damper actuator.
 Binary          The VMA1410 has no external binary outputs. The VMA1420 and VMA1430 have
 Outputs         five external binary outputs. The damper actuator wires internally to the VMA1410 and
                 VMA1420. Each load connects between the BO terminal and BCOM common terminal.
                 These outputs switch the transformer’s low side to the output allowing the relays, actuators,
                 or transformers to be earth grounded through Terminal 1 when needed to meet codes.
                 A floating/3-wire (incremental) actuator wires externally to two of the five BOs on the
                 VMA1430. There are only three BOs remaining for fan, box heating, supplemental heating,
                 and lighting.

Zone Bus
                    The Zone Bus is a 2-wire communications bus that allows a computer
                    to commission and balance the VMA’s database. The computer must
                    have the proper software and must connect through the CablePRO

                    CVTPROx00-x) converter and the room sensor. The VMA also
                    supplies 15 VDC through the Zone Bus connector to power the
                    CablePRO or CVTPRO converter.
                    Note:     The VMA supplies 15 VDC instead of 24 VAC supplied by
                    other Application Specific Controller (ASC) devices. The Zone Bus
                    does not function properly if connected to 24 VAC on the VMA.

CablePRO
               CablePRO (AS-CBLPRO) is an interface device that is used between a
               computer or Palm™ compatible handheld device and the VMA. Use
               CablePRO for box balancing or commissioning via the Zone Bus
               communication port on the room sensor.
               When used with a VMA, the CablePRO is strictly an electrical
               interface between the serial RS-232 port of the computer and the
               VMA. CablePRO operates on 15 VDC drawn from a VMA and
               provided through the Zone Bus. The data rate on both the RS-232 and
               the Zone Bus is 1200 baud.
               The VMA connects to the RS-232 COM port of the computer via a
               DB9 or DB25 connector supplied with the CablePRO.
               The diagnostic LEDs on the CablePRO indicate normal Zone Bus
               communications. The LEDs flash only when the VMA is transmitting
               or receiving data.
               Refer to the Auxiliary Gear Technical Bulletin (LIT-6363080) for
               more information on the CablePRO.

CVTPRO
               CVTPRO (AS-CVTPROx00-x) is a Zone Bus/N2 Bus interface device
               that is used between a computer or Palm compatible handheld device
               and the VMA. Use CVTPRO for box balancing or commissioning via
               the Zone Bus communication port.
               When used with a VMA, the CVTPRO is strictly an electrical interface
               between the serial RS-232 port of the Palm compatible handheld
               device and the Zone Bus. CVTPRO operates on 15 VDC, drawn from
               a VMA through the Zone Bus phone jack. The data rate on both the
               RS-232 and the Zone Bus is 1200 baud.
               Refer to the Auxiliary Gear Technical Bulletin (LIT-6363080) for
               more information on the CVTPRO. For additional information on
               installing the AS-CVTPRO300-1 and ASCVTPRO400-1, refer to the
               AS-CVTPRO300-1 and AS-CVTPRO400-1 Zone Bus/N2 Bus Interface
               Converters Installation Instructions (Part No. 24-10158-0).
