Vent Axia Lo-Carbon Sentinel Multivent

Sentinel Multivent continuous mechanical extract ventilation, MEV is designed for the simultaneous ventilation of separate areas in the home or as a multipoint extraction system for a wide range of commercial applications. The units can be installed at any angle. Where the ambient air has a high humidity content condensate drains are provided.

Features and Benefits:

Sentinel Multivent has been designed to meet the exacting demands of developers, installers and users offering advanced control options and easier installation and commissioning.

Demand Control – enables precise ventilation rate, is set in 1% increments based on property size
The integral LCD display allows the installer to select appropriate low, normal and boost speeds to meet demand
Manual and automatic control options
Integral adjustable overrun timer and delay on timer
Plug-n-Play automatic sensor detection
Switched live and SELV connections
Dry Out setting – Option set at installation, Sentinel Multivent will run on boost for 1 week to assist in removing moisture
Optional Wireless Control – up to 4 controllers on any one system
Energy-efficient EC/DC motors – 1/3 less energy lost to heat than a conventional AC motor
Low Specific Fan Power (SFP) making it one of the most efficient products on the market
£15 to run per annum depending on the energy provider
Please note this unit was previously manufactured in White. As of 2024 it is now manufactured in black.

Legislation:

Meets Building Regulations Approved Document F (System 3)
Recognised in SAP PCDB up to kitchen + 6 wet rooms
Meets carbon footprint reduction targets
Lowest SFP figures of any demand control MEV system

The need for a healthier environment:

Removal of pollutants such as moisture, carbon dioxide and external fumes are all important factors in maintaining indoor air quality, helping to create a healthier living environment.

The integral humidity sensor (Sentinel Multivent H) increases fan speed in proportion to relative humidity levels, saving energy and reducing noise
The sensor also reacts to small but rapid increases in humidity, even if the normal trigger threshold is not reached. This unique feature ensures adequate ventilation, even for the smallest wet room
Nighttime relative humidity increment setback feature suppresses nuisance tripping as humidity gradually increases with falling temperature
Acoustically lined – low noise levels only 18.1 dB(A) @ 3m

SAP PCDB:

In order to make the right choice, developers and contractors should refer to Building Regulations ADL1a, SAP 2012 and SAP PCDB. SAP PCDB was launched in June 2006 to reward innovative ventilation manufacturers by testing and listing energy-efficient products that assist in helping developers meet their Target Emission Rates (TER). SAP is the underpinning methodology behind the Energy Performance Certificates and is used to demonstrate compliance with Building Regulations for Dwellings – Approved Document L (England and Wales), Section 6 (Scotland) and Approved Document F (Northern Ireland). SAP PCDB specifically relates to whole-house ventilation systems and lists a number of Vent-Axia Mechanical Ventilation solutions which offer an improved SAP rating over and above the default for these product types.

Your Carbon Footprint:

The Carbon Footprint is a measure of the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted through the burning of fossil fuels. From a residential and commercial building perspective, it is the amount of carbon generated when you consume a kilowatt of electricity. Reducing a building’s carbon footprint will ultimately reduce electricity bills and save money for every individual household or business. It will also help meet the UK target for the reduction of emissions, as well as allowing you to help the environment.

Controllers and Sensors:

Sentinel Multivent can be used with a wide range of Vent-Axia controllers and sensors. Ranging from integral humidistats, through wireless controllers to wired remote sensors.
