Brief description
Application This ready-to-connect system solution is an efficient control system for pressure-independent,
standard and fast-running volumetric flow applications.
Field of application The VAV system is used for the regulated supplying and extraction of contaminated or slightly
aggressive air 1) in enclosed spaces:
Exhaust air systems for laboratory workplaces 1)
Laboratories in chemical and pharmaceutical plants 1)
Hospital plants 1)
In conjunction with the fast running actuators LMQ24A-SRV-ST and NMQ24A-SRV-ST, the
1) Air
compatibility test essential (see Technical system is particularly suitable for laboratory applications for the suctioning off of contaminated
data for the VFP-..-sensors, page 23). air 1):
The VRP-M system with standard actuators is compatible with Fan Optimiser COU24-A-MP. The
use of VRP-M with fast running actuators is not permitted for the optimiser function!
Function The differential pressure at the static pressure sensor is converted into an actual volumetric
flow signal with a linear throughflow and serves as the actual value for the self-adaptive
PID-VAV controller.
The actual volumetric flow signal (0 ... 100% nom) can be tapped on the VRP-M as an analogue
signal.

VRP-M VAV System description
Brief description (continued)

The actual value x is compared with the setpoint w set on the VAV controller and the connected
damper actuator is connected according to the resulting control deviation.
The VRP-M controller can be controlled according to its application as a CAV constant
controller (min / max) or a VAV controller via the reference value input w with a modulating
0 10 / 2 10 V signal in the range from min max. Control inputs with OPEN/CLOSE/mid
functions are available for special applications.
The VRP-M can be integrated into an MP system via the MP bus connection.
Safety notes
The VRP-M system solution is not allowed to be used outside the specified field of
! application, especially in aircraft or in any other airborne means of transport.
Only components explicitly approved for this purpose by Belimo are allowed to be used for
the VRP-M system solution.
The equipment configuration and settings form part of the unit manufacturer's system
solution (OEM) and are not allowed to be modified without the OEM's prior authorisation. All
changes are liable to disrupt operation and cause damage to the system or injury to persons!
Attention must be paid to the following during the planning phase and before the VRP-M
system solution is operated:
The compatibility of the pressure sensors with the medium to be controlled must be tested,
The specifications supplied by the damper manufacturer (design, place of installation)
must be consulted and
The local technical regulations must be observed.
Applications with fast running actuator LMQ24A-SRV-ST or NMQ24A-SRV-ST: The actuator
Limitation moves first to the top, then to the bottom spindle end stops when the supply voltage is
The use of VRP-M with fast running actuators is switched on for the first time or after pressing the Adaption push-button. It then moves
not permitted for the optimiser function! into the position required by the system. The VRP-M control function is inoperative during
this procedure.
If the VRP_M solution is operated in a bus system, the cycle times of the MP bus and the
higher-level system must be taken into account.
The damper manufacturer (OEM) is responsible for ensuring that the VRP-M-system
solution is installed and set correctly as well as for overall precision. If replacement devices
are ordered, they are configured by the OEM at the factory according to the installed system.
The VRP-M system solution is sold exclusively via the OEM channel for this reason.

Pressure measurement Belimo pressure sensors (see System components, page 3).
Damper actuators Belimo VAV damper actuators (see System components, page 3).
Optimally matched components In addition to standardised VAV and CAV applications, the VRP-M system solution is also
suitable for fast running applications such as those required in laboratories. The solution
comprises the components optimally matched with one another that are therefore only permitted
to be used in the controller-sensor-actuator combinations specified by Belimo and selected by
the unit manufacturer (see System components, page 3).
VAV variable volumetric flow Variable air volume applications based on a modulating reference variable, e.g. supplied by a
DDC controller, room temperature controller or bus operation,
The reference signal for the min ... max operating range can be set as follows:
DC 0 ... 10 V / DC 2 ... 10 V or bus operation
CAV constant volumetric flow Constant air volume applications with operating modes:
CLOSED / min / mid / max / OPEN (bus operation)
Bus function Up to eight Belimo MP devices (VRP-M / VAV-Compact / damper actuator / valve) can be
connected via the MP bus and integrated into the following systems:
DDC controller with integrated MP bus protocol
EIB Konnex system with Gateway UK24EIB
LONWORKS system with Gateway UK24LON
Modbus system with Gateway UK24MOD
BACnet system with Gateway UK24BAC
See Bus system, pages 20 to 22.
The VRP-M system with standard actuators is compatible with Fan Optimiser COU24-A-MP.
See System documentation COU24-A-MP.

Functions
Nominal volumetric flow nom nom corresponds to the maximum volumetric flow of the VAV unit at which the pressure drop
and noise are still within the permissible operating conditions. The nom values are specified and
programmed permanently by the unit manufacturer.
The volumetric flow actual value signal U5 is always in reference to the nom. For this reason,
changes in the operating volumetric flow setting min and max have no influence on the U5 V

Minimum setting limit min This function suppresses differential pressure signals in the zero region. Thanks to this limitation,
undefined actuator movements in the effective pressure range of 1 ... 6 Pa are prevented. The
operating range is physically limited owing to the dynamic behaviour of the differential pressure
sensor in this area and the flow pattern of the fluid being pumped.

Unit manufacturer's minimum setting limit (2)

Oversized VAV units can make it harder to regulate the lowermost pressure value range.
The manufacturer will specify the lowest permissible volumetric flow for the units, usually
corresponding to a pressure value of approximately 5 ... 12 Pa. Functional restrictions in this
range can be avoided by complying with the unit manufacturer's volumetric flow adjustment.

Functions (continued)
Control tolerance The maximum permissible control tolerance is defined as a percentage of the nominal volumetric
flow nom. If the control deviation exceeds or undershoots this tolerance, the actuator is adjusted
so that the actual volumetric flow corresponds to the required setpoint.
Control tolerance: 5% of nom
The two LEDs [+p] and [-p] will show the following when the maximum control tolerance is
exceeded or undershot or when the actuator in movement must be corrected by the deviation:
LED [+p]: actual value > (setpoint + control tolerance) = damper closes
LED [-p]: actual value < (setpoint + control tolerance) = damper opens

For override control in VAV operation, e.g. CLOSED or OPEN, the reference signal w (Input 3)
can be overridden by wiring the control inputs 6 (z1) and 7 (z2).
CAV operating modes Five operating modes are available for step mode:
CLOSED / min / mid / max / OPEN Shut-off operation Damper CLOSED: The damper is moved into the CLOSED position in a
defined manner.
Operating modes min / mid / max: The VRP-M permanently regulates the selected
volumetric flow.
Flushing operation damper OPEN: The damper can be opened for maximum ventilation, in
which case volumetric flow control is deactivated!
The operating mode control signals are connected to inputs 6 (z1) and 7 (z2). If signals appear
at these two inputs simultaneously, input 6 (z1) for the OPEN function takes priority.

Bus operation
The VRP-M system solution can be interconnected with other Belimo MP actuators (damper
actuators, valve actuators, VAV-Compact controllers, VRP-M system solutions) thanks to the
integrated communication principle over the Belimo MP bus. The maximum of eight Belimo MP
devices are supplied with a digital control signal by the higher-level bus master and then opened
to the position dictated by this signal.
The switching from conventional to bus mode takes place automatically, as soon as an MP
address (1...8) is assigned to the MP actuator.
The Belimo MP devices can be integrated in the following systems:
LONWORKS: The variables of Functional Profile 8110 can be used in conjunction with the
Belimo UK24LON interface.
EIB-Konnex: In connection with the Belimo UK24EIB interface
DDC controller with an integrated MP bus protocol: Available from several manufacturers
Damper position (starting with VRP-M Version V3.x)
(nvoAbsAngle absolute actuator position in angular degrees ())
The feedback signal, i.e. the network variable nvoAbsAngle, is not available for applications with
NM24-V-ST actuators (old actuator generation).
MP bus cycle time
The cycle time of the MP bus must be noted when integrating setpoints and actual values. It is
typically 28 s, depending on the number of connected bus users and integrated sensors.
The local VRP-M control function is not affected by the cycle time. The cycle time of the MP bus
must always be taken into account, however, when selecting setpoints via the MP bus.
Principle of operation Sensor integration (starting with VRP-M version V3.x)
The VRP-M can be connected to an additional active 0 ... 10 V signal in MP bus mode
independently of the VAV control loop. The sensor signal is connected to the reference value
input that is not used in MP bus mode (connection 3).
The VRP-M acts in this capacity as an analogue/digital converter for the transmission of the
sensor signal to the higher-level system. This must know the physical address (which sensor at
which MP device) and be able to interpret the respective sensor signal.

Integration of switches, passive The VRP-M only supports active sensors with a 0 10 V output; i.e. no switches or passive
resistance sensors sensors (resistance elements) can be integrated.
Principle of VRP-M in bus operation In bus operation, the VRP-M controller receives its reference signal from the higher-level control
system and adjusts the volumetric flow to the fixed selected value in the range min ... max.
If needed, the VAV range min ... max can be overridden in bus operation by fixed operating
modes (control inputs z1 and z2).
The following operating modes are available:
Shut-off operation Damper CLOSED: The damper is moved into the CLOSED position in a
defined manner.
Operating modes mid / max: The VRP-M permanently moves the selected volumetric flow.
which case the volumetric flow control is deactivated.

Open operating volumetric flow setting The min / max setting can be open if necessary, i.e. with a setting of min 0% / max 100%. In
this case, the volumetric flow must be limited in the higher-level system.
This operating setting allows the limitation of the volumetric flow to be adjusted without altering
the parameters on the VAV controller.
Responsibility for the limiting function passes from the unit manufacturer to the system supplier
or integrator.

Bus fail function

The VRP-M saves the current setpoint, i.e. the last setpoint to have been received from a bus
master (VRP-M-Tool, UK24LON). If the MP network fails, the connected VRP-M detects this and
Last setpoint retains this setpoint until it receives a new one from the MP master.
Initial setpoint after power failure The VRP-M starts with its MP initial status (setpoint 0%, corresponding to the min setting) if a
power failure occurs in the intervening period.

VFP-.. Static pressure value sensors
Product features
Application Together with a VRP-M controller and a Belimo damper actuator, the VFP-.. static pressure
sensors form a control system for pressure-independent variable (VAV) and constant (CAV)
volumetric flow controls.
The pressure sensors are used for static differential pressure measurement with pick-up devices
installed in air ducts. They can also be used with contaminated or mildly aggressive air 1). Their
robust design makes them ideal for installation in laboratories, clean room systems and industrial
applications.
Principle of operation A high-quality metal diaphragm is used in the sensor. The measured pressure produces a
corresponding diaphragm stroke, which is detected inductively and converted to a pressure-
linearised output signal.
The measuring signal is influenced by the mounting position due to the dead weight of the
diaphragm. The sensor is calibrated in vertical position at the factory, although it can, if
necessary, e.g. if installed in another position, be readjusted at the utilisation site.
The temperature is compensated to reduce drift to a minimum. The wear-free, inductive
measurement method guarantees maintenance-free operation.

manufacturers (cross-section, construction, place of installation), and the ventilation
conditions must be observed.

Product features
Manual override Manual override with self-resetting push-button.

The position calculation is synchronised in order to prevent deviations as a result of manual
override. This synchronisation acts at the same time as a simple functional check (see below
Synchronisation).
Adjustable angle of rotation The angle of rotation is adapted to the available setting range by the manufacturer of the damper
by means of integrated, mechanical end stops.
Permissible range: 63 ... 100%.
Adaption Adaptation to the available angle of rotation
Caution! This function detects the upper and lower spindle end stops and stores them in the actuator. The
An adaption must be carried out when the ! running time and the operating range are adapted to the available angle of rotation. Detection

adjusted (press the Adaption push-button spindle end stops when the supply voltage is switched on for the first time, i.e. at the time of
once). commissioning or after pressing the Adaption key.
Home position Actuation of the Gear disengagement key causes the actuator to move to home position. This
function is performed by the actuator, even when the supply voltage is restored, if the Gear
disengagement key was pressed during the electricity interruption.
Pos. direction of rotation switch Home position

Y = 0 ccw Left end stop
1 Y = 0 cw Right end stop
After this procedure, the actuator then moves into the position defined by the system.
Functional check An extremely simple functional check of the dampers is possible: The gearbox can be
disengaged simply by pressing the gear disengagement key on the housing. As long as the
key remains pressed, the damper can be operated manually.
High functional reliability The actuators are overload-proof, require no limit switches and automatically stop when the end
stop is reached.
The ready-to-connect actuator unit is connected to the VRP-M controller with the 6-pin plug.
