Fan Powered Variable Volume Terminal uniTs
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
General
Price fan powered terminals are
available with pneumatic, electronic
or direct digital (DDC) controls. In
most cases pneumatic and electronic
controls are factory supplied and
mounted. In the case of DDC controls,
the terminal unit controls are often
supplied by the controls contractor
and either factory or field mounted.
For information concerning controls,
components, sequence of operations,
etc. for DDC controls supplied by the
controls contractor, please refer to the
documentation provided by the controls
contractor.
Damper rotation is always clockwise
to the open position. An identification
mark on the end of the shaft indicates
the damper position. Capped tees
are provided in sensing lines from
the amplifying sensor. These allow
field connection of a differential
pressure gauge for accurate air flow
measurement. (Not applicable with
electronic controls.)
An optional metal control cover may
be provided to protect the terminal unit
control components. The protective
cover is removable with two sheet metal
screws.
The velocity sensor is normally
supplied as standard with the terminal
unit. However, in some cases a flow
sensing device supplied by the controls
contractor may be field or factory
mounted. Refer to the submittal drawing
for illustration.

Caution To Contractors

1. Fan powered terminal units are not intended for use as temporary heat or
ventilation sources during building construction. The terminal units are not
designed nor equipped to operate in a dusty construction environment.
Recirculating fan wheels can become coated in construction dust, resulting in
an unbalanced wheel. This in turn can contribute to reduced motor life. Inlet air
filters, if supplied, would provide little protection as they would quickly become
plugged with construction dust.
2. A fan powered terminal unit should never be operated if the downstream duct
work has not been installed. A minimum of 0.10 inches W.G. downstream static
pressure resistance is required for safe operation of the motor, minimum of 0.20
inches W.G. is required for stable operation of electric heater.
Please note that Price cannot warrant against unauthorized operating conditions as
outlined above.

receiving inspection

All Price fan powered terminal units are inspected before shipment. After unpacking
the assembly, check it for damage. If any damage to the products is found, report it
immediately to the delivery carrier. During unpacking and installation, do not handle
the unit by the inlet velocity sensor. Caution is required when unpacking the fan
powered units with electric coils as not to damage the elements.
Ensure that all packing material is removed from the inside of the unit,
especially around the blower wheel and coil section.
warninG: Do not adjust the control components.
