FlexiSmoke™ WSC 560

The FlexiSmoke™ WSC 560 is the largest smoke and heat extraction (RWA) control panel in the FlexiSmoke™ series for controlling ±24V DC and MotorLink

Thanks to the uniform modules, each module can be assigned both RWA and ventilation functions.

Touch Screen

The FlexiSmoke™ features a 3½” LCD touch screen with a clear menu navigation. This allows for easy configuration, commissioning, and maintenance – even without a computer. Any malfunctions are displayed in detail, significantly simplifying troubleshooting.

The FlexiSmoke™ has up to three different motor speeds:

1. for ±24V DC standard motors - 1 speed (RWA)

2. for MotorLink^® motors - 2 speeds (RWA / manual control)

3. for MotorLink^® motors and bus communication - 3 speeds
   (RWA / manual control / automatic)

Speed Types

RWA: full motor performance for RWA and safety functions.
RWA function always has the highest priority.
Manual control: A fast and audible speed for manual ventilation controls
Automatic: A slow and almost silent speed for automatic ventilation controls.

Low Wiring Effort

Using BUS technology for the RWA control stations automatically results in lower wiring effort. The reading and programming of individual BUS participants can be carried out directly via the touch screen of the control panel.

Wind Direction Dependent Smoke Extraction

The FlexiSmoke can be set up to open and close the windows based on wind direction and speed. This way, the RWA flaps/windows can be controlled according to the wind direction without the need for additional modules.

BUS Communication

The ventilation control can also be carried out via KNX or BACnet IP bus communication, for example with NV Advance^®.

Certification

Certified according to EN 12101-10 and ISO 21927-9.
The WSA 5MC KNX module is certified by the BACnet Interest Group Europe. 

Flexible System Setup

The FlexiSmoke can be set up according to need and can be technically extended and modified at any time, for example, by adding additional modules or by linking multiple control panels.

Structure

The WSC 560 contains three 20A sections.

Modules
Each 20A section contains the WSA 5PS power supply module, the WSA 5MC master control module, as well as 3 free installation slots for the installation of expansion modules. The WSA 5MC control module
is available with or without a fieldbus interface for KNX or BACnet IP.
The 3 free installation slots can be equipped with WSA 5IO input/output modules and/or with WSA 5UM universal motor modules. The module types and the number are chosen to adapt the RWA control panel to the specific task.

Motor Groups and Motor Lines
Each motor group consists of one or more motor lines. All motor lines of the motor groups are controlled simultaneously.
Each 20A section contains a 20A motor line for connecting ±24V standard motors at the WSA 5PS module. If multiple motor lines are required, one or more motor modules of type WSA 5UM
should be selected. Each motor module has 4 motor lines. It is possible to connect ±24V standard motors and motors with MotorLink ® to the WSA 5UM.
A 20A section can contain a maximum of 13 ±24V standard motor lines or 12 MotorLink ® motor lines and 1 ±24V standard motor line. The total current consumption of the motors must not exceed 20A.

RWA Main Control Stations
For the FlexiSmoke™, RWA main control stations from the WSK 5 series must be used. The RWA control stations are configured via the touch panel of the RWA control panel and allocated to the smoke sections.

Inputs / Outputs
All inputs and outputs in the FlexiSmoke™ RWA control panel can be freely configured – i.e., functions can be allocated across modules and 20A sections.
