It can be operated manually or automatically. VAV work with a temperature sensor, It varies airflow at a constant temperature  when the set temperature on the thermostat is acheived automatically it reduces the flow by the closing damper and when temperature increased it open the valve which supplies more air to space to achieve temperature. VAV can be used for a single room or zone. It is available based on air quantity. It is also called an energy-saving device. It can be used for heating and cooling both purposes.
