Flow-Rate Controller Type VRE-W

Product catalog summary
Overview
The document provides comprehensive technical specifications for the VRE-W flow rate controllers by LTG Aktiengesellschaft, detailing their application, measuring principles, materials, installation conditions, and sound transmission characteristics.
Unit Views and Application
The VRE-W controllers are designed for pressure-independent constant or variable flow rate control, capable of complete shut-off. They operate with a minimum initial pressure difference of 5 Pa to 50 Pa, depending on model size and flow rate, and include plug-in end pieces and a mineral wool insulating shell for sound and heat insulation.
Measuring Principle
The controllers use a unique measuring principle involving differential pressure measured by cup-shaped elements in the damper blade area, ensuring high control accuracy even at low air speeds.
Advantages
  • High control accuracy from +/- 5% to +/- 15%.
  • Short installation length suitable for retrofitting.
  • High control ratio of 10:1.
  • Low pressure loss and noise generation.
  • Low air leakage rate according to DIN EN 1751 Class 3.
Materials and Accessories
The unit is made from galvanized steel with POM plastic damper bearings and EPDM sealings. Accessories include insulating cases, flanges, and sound absorbers, with special versions available upon request.
Installation and Control Accuracy
Control accuracy ranges from ±5% at nominal flow rates to ±15% at minimum flow rates. Installation requires a straight inflow distance of 0.5 to 3 times the diameter in front of the controller.
Dimensions and Weights
Detailed dimensions and weights are provided for various nominal diameters, both with and without insulating cases.
Sound Transmission
Data on airborne sound transmission and casing sound emission is provided for different air speeds and pressure differences, highlighting the unit's acoustic performance.
Specifications
The controllers manage constant or variable air flow rates, independent of initial pressure, and are factory set according to customer specifications. They operate within a control range of 1 to 10 m/s and handle damper pressure losses from 5 to 1000 Pa.
Sound Emission Data
Detailed sound emission data is included, with measurements taken from a duct of galvanized sheet steel, presented in terms of sound power levels (LW) and sound pressure levels (LpA), both A-weighted.
Room Sound Pressure Level Calculation
The document outlines the method for calculating room sound pressure levels from controller sound transmission and radiation, providing attenuation values for system, room, and outlet reflection.
Ordering Information
A nomenclature and ordering key for the VRE-W controllers is provided, detailing options for size, version, insulation, connection type, and control type.
Accessories and Special Equipment
Optional accessories include insulating cases, silencers, and compact controllers compatible with MP-Bus and LON systems.
Contact Information
Contact details for LTG offices in Germany and international partners are listed.

Flow-Rate Controller Type VRE-W-3

Flow rate controllers type VRE-W (short) Views of unit Measuring principle Contrary to conventional measuring techniques, the differential pressure is not measured through a series-connected element such as an orifice plate. Instead, differential pressure measured by two cup-shaped elements mounted in the damper blade area. Placing the damper blade in the throttle position creates a „jet effect”, which is concentrated with reduced flow rates and higher throttle settings. This results in increased air speeds at the measuring point even with lower duct air speeds allowing for relatively high and...
