Products and systems for control and monitoring of critical environments

• ENVIROTRAK control systems
• Lab~Link protocol translators
• Airflow measurement and control devices

Control and monitor airflow, humidity, temperature, and pressure for critical environments – with unprecedented speed and accuracy

Single source responsibility for your laboratory, hospital, clean room/isolation room, and asceptic/containment suite Now with new Envirotrak IV® multiple protocol controllers – 48 independent I/O control points for extraordinary applications flexibility

Requirements for accurate and repeatable controlled environment conditions are becoming increasingly more stringent. Equipment and systems for managing critical environments must operate continuously at peak performance levels. There can be no tolerance for failure when health and safety are at stake. We understand these implications, and have built an enviable reputation by providing advanced control and instrumentation products to establish and maintain reliable, accurate, integrated airflow, humidity, temperature, and pressurization capabilities. We offer many years of successful experience developing products and designing systems for specialized applications at life science, biotech, and industrial research/processing facilities: At laboratories, hospitals, and industrial facilities to control fume hoods, room pressurization, and temperature For isolation room control systems in hospitals and other institutions For airflow, pressurization, and temperature control systems for aseptic and containment suites.

Precise, repeatable, and reliable control and monitoring for all critical environment facilities.

• At laboratories, hospitals, and industrial facilities to control fume hoods, room pressurization, and temperature
• For isolation room control systems in hospitals and other institutions
• For airflow, pressurization, and temperature control systems for aseptic and containment suites

The Envirotrak IV high speed, microprocessor-based controller (25 msec scan rate) represents the latest technology for managing a variety of equipment and processes at critical environment facilities. This controller offers substantial capacity to handle complex HVAC equipment and systems, and may be used virtually anywhere precise control of room pressure, temperature, humidity, airflow, or any combination must be maintained. The Envirotrak IV supports all four popular protocols used in most building automation systems (BAS) including ASHRAE’s BACnet, Modbus, LonWorks, and Johnson Control’s N2. Envirotrak’s seamless integration with most devices and systems used in current building automation systems is a key advantage for managing multiple controlled environment areas within a facility, for example, or even a facility with just two laboratories.

• Envirotrak IV permits virtually seamless integration  with most devices and systems used in current building automation systems.
• Protocol support includes ASHRAE’s BACnet, Modbus, LonWorks, and Johnson Control’s N2. BACnet/IP communications are also supported through optional Ethernet plug-in cards. The cards can serve up web pages to a standard internet browser package for remotely monitoring any system, anywhere.
• Up to 48 I/O control points maximize flexibility; each is programmable for individual scanning in any desired sequence.
• Point “mapping” can be pre-set to any protocol, permitting discrete protocol and baud rates to be quickly and conveniently field selectable, or switched without the need for additional downloads or technical assistance.
• For maximum applications flexibility six digital outputs, twelve universal inputs, and six universal outputs (switch selectable for digital or analog format) are available.
• To accommodate system/facility growth, Envirotrak IV expander boards are available with I/O x 440, I/O x 880, and I/O x 8160 capacities.
• An integral battery-backed, real-time clock permits full standalone scheduling capabilities as well as historical trend data storage and alarm event time stamping.
