TAC I/A Series
MicroNet BACnet VAV Controllers
MicroNet BACnet VAV Controllers MNB-Vx
The TAC I/A Series™ MicroNet™ BACnet™
VAV (Variable Air Volume) Controllers are
interoperable controllers with native BACnet MS/TP
communications support. All models incorporate: an
integral actuator with manual override; an integral,
patented, pressure transducer; three universal inputs;
Sensor Link (S-Link) support; LED status indication;
and over-the-shaft damper mounting. See the model
chart for optional features.
When programmed using WorkPlace Tech Tool, the
controllers provide a wide range of control strategies
for pressure-dependent and pressure-independent
terminal boxes with or without reheat capabilities.
The MicroNet BACnet VAV controllers can function
