A Simple, Low-Cost Solution to Connecting ERVs with BMS
S&P USA Ventilation Systems LLC (S&P USA), a leading provider of HVAC air movement and ventilation solutions, is excited to launch our latest accessory: the BACnet Fan Control. This new device seamlessly connects S&P USA energy recovery ventilators (ERVs) with a building management system (BMS) or building automation system (BAS).
The easy-to-operate, plug-and-play BACnet Fan Control’s installation saves up to 50% in labor/material costs versus adding an I/O connection for ERV BMS monitoring/control for commercial building indoor air quality (IAQ). The BACnet Fan Control is a custom-engineered, BACnet MS/TP protocol device designed for facility managers and installation/service contractors that prefer quick, simple on/off and 0 to 100% variable frequency drive (VFD) fan speed selections.
What Sets the BACnet Fan Control Apart
The BACnet Fan Control offers users a much easier and less expensive solution compared to traditional methods for connecting ERVs to a BMS, which can cost thousands of dollars. This simple wall-mount controller allows the user to turn an S&P USA ERV on and off either through the keypad, through a digital input with a remote switch, or through a BMS with BACnet MS/TP. With this solution, customers can easily and affordably meet their needs for improving indoor air quality without sacrificing functionality.
In addition, our controllers are BACnet Testing Laboratories (BTL) listed, ensuring the unit will be compatible with other BACnet systems, and allowing for a seamless connection between ERVs and the BMS.

Perfect for Light Commercial Applications
This controller is ideal for light commercial applications, including schools, healthcare offices, houses of worship, retail stores, and other spaces that need to override idle, interlocked central air handling units when quick outdoor air induction from the ERV is needed to enhance indoor air quality.
And why does this matter? Studies have shown that enhancing indoor air quality via energy-efficient ERVs improves occupant health and wellbeing, all while keeping heating and cooling costs low.
