ERV Ventilation Controls

An electrical ERV generally refers to an energy recovery ventilation system that uses electrically powered fans and controls to move air between indoors and outdoors. The ERV itself recovers energy during ventilation, while electrical controls manage fan speed, operation, and integration with the building system. Product selection should consider system compatibility, control method, and application requirements.

An ERV switch is a user control that operates an energy recovery ventilation system, commonly by selecting fan speed or enabling system operation. BPE offers wired fan controllers with simple operation and multiple speed settings, as well as room controllers with broader control capabilities. Compatibility depends on the ERV system series and controller model.

The BPE UbiquiSTAT Room Controller with BACnet supports BACnet protocol for energy management integration. This allows the controller to participate in compatible building control strategies while providing room-level ERV management. Confirm the required BACnet configuration and system compatibility when specifying controls for a commercial HVAC or building energy management application.

The product range includes the BPE UbiquiSTAT Room Controller with BACnet and Fan Controllers comprising Controller 67, Controller 69, and the Forex Analog Controller. These options cover BACnet-enabled room control, multi-fan control, and straightforward wired speed control. The appropriate option depends on the ERV system, application, and desired control functionality.

No. The listed BPE fan controllers are compatible with BPE ERV systems and are specified to work only with BPE S Series and T Series systems. Before ordering, verify the ERV model, required wiring, control type, and operating requirements to ensure the selected controller matches the installed equipment.

ERV ventilation controls are used in residential HVAC applications, light commercial HVAC systems, commercial HVAC installations, building energy management, and energy recovery ventilation systems. They can support simple user operation or more integrated control strategies, depending on the selected product and the requirements of the building and ventilation equipment.
