Fan Powered Constant Volume terminals INSTALLATION & MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS duct Connection Recommend a minimum of 3 duct diameters of straight inlet duct, either sheet metal or flexible, same size as the inlet, between the unit inlet and any transition, take-offs or fittings. Use of transitions or elbows at the unit inlet to be avoided. Where flexible duct is used it should be pulled tight to eliminate sags or folds.
A fan powered terminal unit should never be operated if the downstream duct work has not been installed. A minimum downstream static pressure resistance of 0.1 in wg (or 0.2 in wg for Size 60 FDC units and units with an electric heater).
Fan Powered Constant Volume terminals start Up & operatIon electronically Commutated motor (eCm) information Do not switch 120/208/240/277 VAC power to turn ECM motor on and off. Instead control the 24VAC signal or BAS signal to turn the ECM motor on and off. The ECM motor has large capacitors that charge quickly on mains power up. Switching on several motors frequently could reduce building power quality and is not recommended.
Fan Powered Constant Volume terminals MaIntenance Fan and motor maintenance Disconnect all incoming power before servicing the unit. Price fan powered terminal units are supplied with permanently lubricated motors. The blower and motor should be inspected annually for accumulation of dust and dirt. Clean as necessary. To access blower and motor for servicing, remove the bottom access panel or alternate access panels if equipped.
Fan Powered Constant Volume terminals MaIntenance motor/Blower Field replacement Tools you will need to replace the motor/blower assembly in the field: • Cordless drill with a 1/4 inch nut driver bit. • 3/8 inch nut driver bit. • Wiring diagram (located inside the control panel).

Fan Powered Constant Volume terminals MaIntenance motor/Blower Field replacement Installation Instructions: Lift the blower assembly up and tilt into place. Start with the bottom two bolts first and tighten them by hand. Rotate the blower into position so the top two holes line up. Insert the bolts and hand-tighten them in place. Use the 3/8 inch nut driver to tighten them.
Measure the downstream static pressure. It needs to overheat and cycle. Ensure the downstream static be at least 0.1 in wg (0.2 in wg for a Size 60 FDC or pressure is a minimum of 0.1 in wg (0.2 in wg for a if an electric coil is present).
