Abstract:
An air distribution apparatus that serves as a single sensing device for both lighting, LiFi, and HVAC functions that are operable on a single platform by building automation systems. The building automation system may be controllable by a single software system or network accessible locally on site or remotely off site. The air distribution apparatus can operate in a single zone or coupled with multiple like apparatuses for multi-zone operation. It is a high turndown, self-balancing system which allows for continuous commissioning with built-in fault diagnostic systems and that may be used as a supply, return, or exhaust system, or a combination thereof. The air distribution apparatus includes multi-stage airflow control systems that operate progressively based on unique actuation mechanisms and/or algorithms that allow for precise flow control and feedback to self-balance and commission the system.

Claim (Index 15):
The variable fluid volume device of  claim 14 , wherein the slanting profile defines a first mounting position where a first end of the thermal transfer device is mounted to one side of the housing and a second mounting position where an opposing end of the thermal transfer device is mounted to an opposing side of the housing, wherein the first end is closer to the LLF device than the second end.
