BELIMO LMV-BAC-001 CONTROLLER ACTUATOR LMVBAC001
The BELIMO LMV-BAC-001 is a high-performance, electric rotary actuator engineered for reliable and precise modulating control of characterized control valves in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) applications. As a cornerstone of modern building management, this actuator features native BACnet MS/TP communication, allowing for straightforward, cost-effective integration into BACnet-based building automation systems without the need for additional gateways.
Ideal for controlling water flow in coils, hydronic systems, and other pressure-independent valve applications, the LMV-BAC-001 delivers exceptional accuracy, improved comfort, and enhanced energy efficiency. Its direct-mount design and field-selectable rotation make it a versatile and indispensable component for system integrators and engineers.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Native BACnet MS/TP Communication:Â Integrates directly into your BACnet building automation network, simplifying system architecture, reducing installation time, and lowering overall project costs. No proprietary protocols or extra hardware are needed.
-
Pressure-Independent Valve (PIV) Control:Â Specifically designed to work with characterized control valves, providing precise and stable control of water flow regardless of pressure fluctuations in the system. This maximizes occupant comfort and optimizes energy use.
-
Non-Spring Return (24VAC/DC):Â A failsafe option is not required for all applications. The non-spring return design offers a compact and cost-effective solution where fail-safe operation is handled by the system design (e.g., normally open valves).
-
Field-Selectable Rotation & Torque: Can be easily configured on-site for 95° clockwise or counter-clockwise operation with adjustable torque (30 to 150 lb-in). This provides ultimate flexibility and reduces the need for multiple SKUs in inventory.
-
Integrated Auxiliary Switch:Â Includes a built-in potentiometer and auxiliary switch for end-position feedback, damper control, or other auxiliary functions, adding to its versatility.
-
LED Status Indicator:Â A clear, multi-color LED provides instant visual confirmation of power, communication status, and operational mode, simplifying commissioning and troubleshooting.
-
Rugged & Reliable Design:Â Housed in a robust, UV-resistant enclosure, the LMV-BAC-001 is built to perform reliably in demanding environmental conditions, ensuring long service life with minimal maintenance.
