Laboratory Control

We offer integrated room air control solutions for laboratory environments that enable safe, reliable, and energy-efficient operation. Our systems regulate supply and exhaust airflows based on real demand and operating modes, ensuring continuous compliance with all relevant standards and safety requirements. Building on decades of experience in laboratory environments, our LabSystems solutions cover the complete scope from hardware control supply to project engineering and professional commissioning services. The Waldner Airflow Controller AC4 is one example of a control module used within such systems to enable precise and demand-led room air control.

Laboratory Control example

Control and Monitoring

Active monitoring continuously controls airflows, operating states, and alarms to ensure safe and reliable laboratory operation. Integrated room displays provide clear status visualization and intuitive user interaction.
 

Benefits

Laboratory

Total Room Control 

Seamless integration with fume cupboards and ventilation systems enables complete room air.

  • Reduced energy consumption
  • Optimised operating costs
Night setback

Night setback

The room air exchange is regulated to a minimum value at night.

 

  • Reduction in night operation
  • Maximum energy savings
High-speed actuator

High-speed actuator

The air flow damper needs to regulate quickly and precisely for a fume hood to guarantee its protective pollution retention objectives. This guarantees that the required extract air volume flow is ensured when the sash is opened.

  • Response time for adjustment of the volume flow when the sash is open is less than one second
  • Maximum safety standards when operating the fume hood
Illustration of the Venturi effective pressure detection

Venturi effective pressure detection

The sound pressure level of ventilation systems must be kept below 52 dB(A) in accordance with DIN 1946 Part 7. To minimise the impact of the extract air volume control on the sound emissions, Waldner uses flow-optimised volume flow measurements based on the Venturi principle.

  • Extremely quiet operation: Reduction of the sound (capacity) level by up to 10 dB(A)
  • Increased energy efficiency: Reduced pressure loss of 15 Pa; pressure loss specification reduced by 10 %
