KMC Controls CSP-5001 Controller

The KMC Controls CSP-5001 is a high-performance, analog electronic VAV flow controller-actuator engineered for pressure-independent variable air volume terminal units. This unit features a built-in flow-through sensor utilizing twin platinum resistance temperature detectors, providing a high degree of precision with a 3% accuracy across a velocity setpoint range of 0 to 3,300 fpm. Designed for rigorous field use, the CSP-5001 delivers a minimum 50 in-lb torque (70 in-lb max) and is configured for CCW (counter-clockwise) to close operation. It integrates seamlessly with CTE-5100 series thermostats and can be expanded with REE series relays for reheat, fan induction, or dual-duct applications. The integrated damper actuator includes adjustable stops, a magnetic clutch, and a manual gear disengagement button, ensuring streamlined VAV box calibration and manual positioning during balancing. For reliable HVAC zone control, the KMC CSP-5001 remains an industry standard for maintaining stable airflow in complex pneumatic and electronic hybrid environments.

Key Benefits

• Precision Airflow Monitoring: Onboard flow-through sensor maintains accurate velocity pressure sensing without the drift common in lower-tier controllers.
• Field-Adjustable Limits: Allows for direct adjustment of minimum and maximum airflow setpoints via internal potentiometers or through a compatible CTE-5202 thermostat.
• Installation Reliability: Features a rugged V-bolt mounting system for 1/2-inch shafts and a magnetic clutch to prevent motor damage during high-load scenarios.
• Visual Diagnostics: Dual internal status LEDs provide immediate feedback for opening (green) and closing (red) damper rotation.

Common Questions

Is the CSP-5001 compatible with my existing pneumatic thermostat?
The CSP-5001 is an analog electronic controller designed to interface with KMC CTE-5xxx series electronic thermostats. If you are retrofitting a pneumatic system, you will require an electronic-to-pneumatic transducer or a compatible electronic wall sensor.

How do I change the rotation direction if I need CW to close?
While the CSP-5001 is factory-set for CCW to close, the rotation direction can be reversed by relocating the internal rotation jumper on the circuit board located under the wiring access door.

What power supply is required for this VAV controller?
This unit requires a 24 VAC (?Çô15/+20%) power source. Ensure the transformer is sized correctly to handle the actuator's 4 VA power drawing requirement during peak operation.
