Antrumx’S Patented Air Accelerator
Air Accelerator
Antrum’s patented air accelerator uses the building supply pressure of the existing HVAC system to create a continuous vacuum in every room being monitored—the room being actively sampled as well as the idle rooms. The air accelerator is connected to the multiplexer, which selects and routes one room to the sensor pack every minute. There, the room air is sampled and IAQ parameters are measured and reported to the cloud and BMS. There are no moving parts on the air accelerator and therefore no energy input to the system other than the negligible parasitic loss on the supply and exhaust fan motors in the AHU serving the rooms being sampled.
Faceplate
AntrumX’s faceplate, with its high-gloss finish and flush mounting, was designed to be simple and aesthetically pleasing. The faceplate collects air samples from each space and delivers them to the centrally located sensor pack through 1/4” flame-retardant polyethylene tubing.
Monitoring Panel
The AntrumX monitoring panel is where it all comes together. Located in the mechanical room and easily accessible, the monitoring panel houses the core of AntrumX technology, the sensor pack and the gateway. The sensor pack is comprised of unique sensors with specific performance characteristics designed to facilitate demand-controlled ventilation or monitoring-only purposes. The ability to monitor a variety of IAQ parameters from a single location results in more accurate data, which leads to significant maintenance and energy savings, a better ventilation strategy, and an overall healthier building.The gateway is the controller that integrates the sensor pack, building management system, and the cloud. The gateway receives data from the sensor pack and uploads the data to the cloud for further analysis. This data is available on antrumeye.com and the AntrumEYE mobile app. This data is also communicated to the BMS to allow for better overall space-level control.
