Natural Ventilation Control DC

Model: NVC-2-12 and NVC-2-24
Control 12 and 24-volt curtain machines and heaters

The Natural Ventilation Control automatically controls the temperature in a room by operating a curtain machine and heater or furnace according to your programmed settings.

With 12 and 24 VDC models available, the NVC is the perfect solution for off-grid, battery-powered installations that use solar or wind power.

Controlling a curtain machine
  • When the temperature is within the idle band, the NVC-2 maintains the curtain position.
  • When the temperature rises above the idle band, the NVC-2 opens the curtain for the on duration and then pauses for the off duration.
  • After each off duration, the NVC-2 checks the temperature and then either opens or closes the curtain, depending on the temperature.

See example

Controlling a heater

When the temperature is below the heat set point, the NVC-2 switches the heater on; when it is above the set point, the NVC-2 switches the heater off.

AC-powered model

An AC-powered model, NVC-2, is also available.
