OVERVIEW DOAS DN-Series Rooftop 1.3 AIRFLOWS IMPORTANT It is important to understand and use the equipment airstream terminology as it is used in this manual. The airstreams are defined as: OUTSIDE AIR (OA): Air taken from the external atmosphere and, therefore, not previously circulated through the system.

Electric heaters are available in a number of different sizes and each heater has a control module that modulates the output of the heater. The heater control module is controlled by an analog signal from the controller. See illustration below. See the RenewAire Electric Heat Module User Manual for further information.
There are primarily three different methods for accomplishing hot gas reheat. All three include a condenser reheat coil but require different equipment and are connected and piped differently, based on the method. Consult your RenewAire sales representative or the factory for further information and for help in specifying an HGRH coil.
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION DN-Series Rooftop DOAS 2.0 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION 2.1 CABINET CONSTRUCTION The DN is available in either single-thickness (1") wall or double-thickness (2" thick, with thermal break) wall construction. See Digit 11 of the Configuration Code. The sheet metal exterior of the unit is 20 gauge galvanized steel. Doors and removable panels are secured with quarter-turn latches.
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION DOAS DN-Series Rooftop 2.3 DAMPERS AMCA Class 1A leakage-rated airfoil dampers are standard on all units. Standard motorized isolation dampers are located at the unit walls for Outside Air (OA) and Exhaust Air (EA). Standard face and bypass dampers are located internal to the unit in the energy recovery module.
2.6 CONTROLS RenewAire provides an integrated control package with or without a BACnet license. See Digit 21 of the Configuration Code. The points list is found in the DN-Series Integrated Programmable Controls Manual.
0–10 VDC signal is produced by the integrated controller. The gas heat module is always installed in the lower part of the DN heat module and is always downstream of the fans. See Digit 18 of the DN Configuration Code. Also see the RenewAire Integral Indirect Gas-Fired Heat Module User Manual.
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION DN-Series Rooftop DOAS 2.10 HOT GAS REHEAT (OPTIONAL) For humidity control, the DN may be ordered with an integral Hot Gas Reheat (HGRH) coil. The HGRH coil has a supply line connection on the leaving air side of the coil and a return line connection on the entering air side of the coil.
All DN units are palletized and then shipped by common carrier. It is the installer’s/customer’s responsibility to coordinate delivery and properly handle the shipment during unloading and storage. RenewAire also provides a model-specific manual for shipping, rigging, lifting and assembly that is available online at RenewAire.com.

If shipping damage is discovered, take digital pictures and note the visible damage on the shipping manifest. Notify your RenewAire dealer immediately. 3.3 RIGGING For rigging instructions, refer to the model-specific manual for shipping, rigging, lifting and assembly that is available online at RenewAire.com.
RenewAire offers optional curbs and curb clip kits for the DN-Series. The curb assembly from RenewAire has assembly instructions included. The Curb Clip Kits are designed for winds up to 90 MPH.
INSTALLATION DN-Series Rooftop DOAS 5.3 HOOD INSTALLATION Outside Air (OA) and Exhaust Air (EA) hoods are shipped loose and field installed. Installation of the hoods is performed after all rigging and hoisting is complete to reduce the chance of damage by rigging equipment. For information on installation of hoods on the DN DOAS see the DN-Series Shipping, Rigging, Hoisting, and Assembly Manual.
INSTALLATION DOAS DN-Series Rooftop 5.5 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS WARNING ARC FLASH AND ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD Arc flash and electric shock hazard. Disconnect all electric power supplies, verify with a volt- meter that electric power is off and wear protective equipment per NFPA 70E before working within electric control enclosure.
INSTALLATION DN-Series Rooftop DOAS 5.5.2 High-Voltage Electrical Connections This DN uses a single-point high voltage electrical supply connection. All wires are to be terminated at the same point on the top of the disconnect switch. See photo below. Depending on the ampacity of the unit, different disconnect switches may be used, but high voltage supply wiring is always terminated at the top of the disconnect switch.
INSTALLATION DN-Series Rooftop DOAS 5.5.4 24 VAC Class II Power Supply This unit is equipped with 2 Class II 24 VAC power supply transformers (see image below). One transformer provides power for the integrated controller and the second transformer provides power for optional sensors.

Drain trap design is dependent on the static pressure at the drain location and also whether the pressure is negative or positive. For all drain traps, RenewAire recommends the installation of threaded plugs at several locations to permit periodic cleaning and filling of the trap. Also recommended is the use of a vacuum breaker if water is being discharged from the trap into a drain pipe.
5.7.4 Waterless Drain Traps Accessory As an alternative to a field-fabricated and installed condensate P-trap, RenewAire offers an HVAC waterless trap as an accessory. The advantages to a waterless trap are that they may require less vertical clearance for (negative pressure) installations, they generally do not require winterization and they do not require priming at the beginning of the cooling season.
5.8 GAS REQUIREMENTS All DN units equipped with an indirect-fired gas heat module are to have gas supply connected in accordance with the instructions in the RenewAire Indirect Gas-Fired Heat Module User Manual supplied with this unit. 1.800.627.4499...
OPERATION DOAS DN-Series Rooftop 6.0 OPERATION 6.1 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION DN-Series units operate automatically based on the programming of the integrated controller. The unit receives a call for ventilation. Its isolation dampers open and turn on the fans. The unit determines the operating mode by continuously monitoring the air streams for temperature and enthalpy.
DN-Series Integral 7.0 MAINTENANCE Programmable Controls RenewAire units are built to operate with minimal maintenance. Experience on the part of User Manual. the service person is the most important issue in establishing a maintenance schedule. Maintenance is performed on a quarterly and annual basis.
