    BYPASS INSTALLATION INSTALLATION The round and rectangular bypass damper can be installed in any position. Do not run speed screws into damper housing. Screws may interfere with damper travel. 1. Install the bypass damper between the supply and return plenums of the unit. It must be the first tap off the supply plenum.
  • Page 49 INTEGRATED PRESSURE CONTROL SETUP Bypass Damper with Integrated Pressure Control is used to control bypass operations. The bypass damper modulates to maintain static pressure as zone dampers open and close. The bypass system reduces air noise from the supply registers caused by excessive air velocity. If the system is configured for intermittent fan mode and the system satisfies, there will be a 3-minute delay to allow for system purge, after which the bypass damper will open to 25%, preventing noisy rush of air through supply registers when fan starts up on a call for heat or cool.
