Main switch

The Zenec main switch is used to control EC fans via an external control signal. In the event of a control signal failure, e.g. caused by a technical defect, this allows the EC fan to be switched to full speed manually. Particularly in agriculture and livestock farming, this function offers key advantages to ensure optimum ventilation in the stable at all times. In addition to 100% functionality, the main switch also facilitates automatic control mode via an external control signal. With system components from ZIEHL-ABEGG, you can extend your ventilation system according to your individual requirements for optimum operational reliability, top-class performance and maximum energy efficiency.

External main switch with bypass function. In an emergency, the frequency inverter can be bypassed using the main switch, enabling 100% operation of connected fans. 

Main switch for EC fans

Zenec main switch for 1~/3~ EC fans from the ETAvent and ECblue series with 100% functionality. EC fans are controlled by an external control signal, e.g. 0–10 V. If the control signal fails due to a technical defect, the Zenec can be used to manually switch the connected EC fan to 100%.

  • Version: For combination with 1~ and 3~ EC fans that support the control option for the 100% function: 1~ ETAvent and 1~/3~ ECblue for agriculture.
  • Switch positions: 100%: Full speed of EC fan 0: Fan switched off. The switch can be locked in this position with a padlock
    Auto: Control operation via external setting signal

Main switch with bypass function

The main switches have three switch positions. In position 1 or Auto, power is supplied to a connected frequency inverter. The controlled output of the frequency inverter
goes back to the switch, which uses the output to supply fans, for example. 100% or bypass means that the connected mains power supply is switched directly to fans or motors. This enables 100% operation in certain situations, such as emergency mode. An integrated auxiliary contact signals this switch position.
In position 0 or Off, the switch can be locked with a padlock. For combinations with frequency inverters without a sine filter, there are EMC inserts that can be inserted into the switches.

  • For combinations with 1~ or 3~ control units (e.g. Fcontrol frequency inverters, voltage controllers). Mains power supply 1~ or 3~.
