Avtec EcoAzur Demand Control Kitchen Ventilation System

The Avtec EcoAzur Demand Control Kitchen Ventilation (DCKV) System maximizes energy savings during non-peak cooking times. EcoAzur DCKV, has state-of-the-art heat and optic sensors, allowing foodservice operators to automatically and safely lower the level of air being exhausted. EcoAzur saves energy usage on the exhaust fans themselves, with the added benefit of limiting the loss of conditioned air within the kitchen.

  • EcoAzur optics employ the most efficient light wave available, making them the most sensitive to smoke and vapor, and the most forgiving if not cleaned as often as recommended
  • EcoAzur optics are contained in a precision-machined housing built from a solid piece of stainless steel, assuring that the electronics are protected from damage while making cleaning as easy as spraying and wiping
  • Optics will flash when they require cleaning, to remind busy kitchen staff to maintain them regularly
  • EcoAzur’s Touch Pad Controller provides a simple visual showing at what percentage of full speed the exhaust fans are running - Controller can display up to 4 fan speeds at one time
  • Plug-n-play connection in the field with RJ45 cable connections - as easy as 1-2-3
  • Heat sensors are 100% customizable to the environment – the user controls the operating range (factory preset is standard)
  • Because of its potential to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the EcoAzur DCKV has been awarded the 2015 ENERGY STAR Emerging Technology Award* for high standards set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

Most DCKV systems rely on heat from cooking equipment to control the rate of exhaust, but do not address low-heat smoke or vapor which can fill a kitchen with smoke before the heat rises enough to set the sensor off. Because of this limitation, heat-only sensors don't reduce the fan speed as much to ensure safety standards in commercial kitchens. With EcoAzur's optic and heat sensors, the rates of exhaust can go as low as 30% of full speed, providing the highest energy savings possible. EcoAzur's optics are easy to operate and maintain with their "spray-down" durability. EcoAzur Lite offers a heat-only solution, with an industry-exclusive option to add the optic sensors as an upgrade after purchase and installation. EcoAzur Plus allows the addition of our modulating dampers to control air volume on ventilation hoods that are designed with a common fan, so energy is saved by each vent hood, not just the fan
