Appendix Appendix Definitions Evap Recirc Timer A timing function, with a 30-second default, that holds off any Active Setpoint reading of chilled water for the duration of the timing setting. This delay allows the chilled water sensors (especially water The active setpoint is the setting in effect at any given temperatures) to take a more accurate reading of the chilled moment.
