Autoflow 3000

What is Autoflow 3000?
An intelligent demand-driven, natural ventilationsystem for commercial buildings. Muco Technologies BV has all developed all the necessary software and hardware for the company Alusta Natural Ventilationtechniques.

How does it work?
A building wil be divided into a number of logical sections which separately must be balanced in regards to the supply and exhaust of the air. The components required for each compartment of the system are connected with a low-voltage cable to one or more so called "network splitters'. These spliters are each assigned a unique number.Then these splitters are connected to a local (existing or seperate) PC network.

Autoflow 3000On each netwerkspitter a number of self-regulating airvalves are connected in turn ensure the supply of fresh air. These valves can be individually operated with an infrared remote control. These airwaves are usually placed above the windows of a building

The evacuation of the air takes place through mechanical pressured controlled ventilators, which regulate the total quantity of air to the building. But also ach compartment can evacuate the air by using electronically controlled "valves", the so called Vent-O-Stab.

Central control over the network can be done by a specially developed computer program. The PC (called the Vent-O-Host) can control the Auto Flow 3000 system as desired by the customer. For example, in an electronic r calendar the user may determine exactly when, where and how much ventilation is needed. All network splitters can be programmed independently of each other, from a simple, familiar Windows 'environment'.

AutoflowA final special feature is the optional I/O unit. This unit is controlled via the LAN and allows the Autoflow 3000 system to be connected to a Building Management System (BMS). There are 16 available inputs (24 VDC). The Vent-O-Host can be programmed with simple instructions to perform a special action for each of these inputs. When an input is activated by the BMS, this instruction triggers the Vent-O-Host to activate this action. An analog output can be used to control the central ventilationsystem. The demand of the entire building is converted into an output voltage between 0 and 10 VDC.
