Looking to convert Barber Colman Econ-o-Flo induction vav boxes.Old electronic induction vav boxes from 1980's. Looking for any literature. Induction boxes have hot water reheat, two damper shafts with linkage on the side of box and a bellow on the inlet of the box controlling primary air. Job site has Honeywell WEBS. Looking at W7751F VAV controllers installing two actuators, DA sensor, flow sensor on inlet of vav box and room sensor with setpoint. Looking for advice and literature for Barber Colman induction boxes. I have over 100 vav box to convert would like the process to go as smooth as possible.

Thanks

I'm wondering how well induction VAV boxes with HW heating coils work in the heating mode in a colder climate (Michigan), for a retrofit project I'm working on. This is a typ. office building, perimeter zones are induction VAV and interior are true VAV. There is no other source of heat, such as baseboard. These perimeter Induction VAV's are connected to the cooling only supply fan, so the enterring primary air is 55-60F year around.
