FC Control enables many smart and automated functions and allows you to optimise your comfort with minimum effort, customised to your specific needs. Today, different Frico product groups such as air curtains and fan heaters can be installed in the same system, with great benefits.
Frico air curtains come with an integrated PC-board and are supplemented with the intelligent control system FC of your choice, working together to create many smart and energy saving features.
There are four different packages to choose from, depending on your requirements; FC Direct, FC Smart, FC Pro and FC Building. In addition to our four packages, components can be added to expand and customise the system.
By receiving and reacting to information about the current room temperature in addition to the air curtain's inlet and outlet temperatures, the right amount of heat is added to avoid overshoots and thus reducing energy consumption.
To avoid unnecessary heating, the system automatically blocks any additional heat when the outdoor temperature reaches a given value (15°C by default).
By installing two air curtains with a setting for vestibules, a dual function can be obtained. The outer air curtain operates with a higher airflow with less heat, providing a stronger outer shield. The inner air curtain operates with a lower airflow with more heat, providing more comfort and lower sound level.
Water heat is more accurate controlled with improved water functions and modulating actuators. Automatic functions such as bypass, frost protection and return water temperature control (with sensor FCWTA) improve product functionality without any additional effort.
The system automatically detects any products or sensors that are connected to it and immediately becomes functional. If anything is removed, a notification is sent out, and the system remains operational according to the new conditions.
An easily installed door contact is included in all control levels. This enables the air curtain to become active only when needed and remain on stand-by when the door is closed, thus saving energy.
Indoor and outdoor temperatures can be measured by wireless sensors, which allows for quicker and easier installations as no preparatory work is needed to connect cables through walls.
The zone feature allows you to create different zones for different conditions and products in a larger system, to create maximum comfort and energy savings in all areas. All zones can be controlled from the same app.
In order to generate the best possible door protection in any given condition, the system automatically adjusts the airflow steplessly between 0–100% based on the indoor and outdoor temperature.
