Carrier’s Unit Vent Open controller is an integrated component of a Carrier unit ventilator. The Unit Vent Open controller continuously monitors and regulates unit ventilator operation with reliability and precision. This advanced controller features a sophisticated, factory engineered control program that provides optimum performance and energy efficiency.
For added flexibility, the Unit Vent Open controller is capable of stand-alone operation, or it can be integrated with any Building Automation System utilizing the BACnet protocol.
