PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The PUB6438S, PVB6436AS and PVB6438NS controllers are
part of the Spyder family. The three controllers are BACnet
MS/TP network devices designed to control HVAC equipment.
These controllers provide many options and advanced system
features that allow state-of-the-art commercial building
control. Each controller is programmable and configurable
through software.
These controllers are for use in VAV (Variable Air Volume) and
Unitary HVAC control applications. Each controller contains a
host micro controller to run the main HVAC application and a
second micro controller for BACnet MS/TP network
communications. Each controller has flexible, universal inputs
for external sensors, digital inputs, and a combination of
analog and digital Triac outputs. The three models are
described in Table 1. The photo to the left is the model
PVB6436AS, which includes the actuator.
