Abstract

Ce système de ventilation comprend un dispositif de détection d'environnement, un dispositif de ventilation et un dispositif de commande. Le dispositif de détection d'environnement détecte la concentration de dioxyde de carbone dans une pièce. Le dispositif de ventilation ventile la pièce. Le dispositif de commande est pourvu d'une unité de communication sans fil et d'une unité de commande principale. L'unité de communication sans fil communique sans fil avec le dispositif de détection d'environnement et acquiert la concentration à partir du dispositif de détection d'environnement. L'unité de commande principale commande le dispositif de ventilation sur la base de la concentration acquise à partir du dispositif de détection d'environnement.
