LOW TEMPERATURE
SWITCH—The Economizer is equipped with a low ambient
temperature lockout switch located in the outdoor airstream which is
used to lock out the compressors below a 42_F (5.6_C) ambient
temperature.
Economizer Control Modes—Determine the Economizer control
mode before set up of the control. Some modes of operation may
require different sensors. Refer to Table 10. The Economizer is
supplied from the factory with a supply air temperature sensor, a
low temperature compressor lockout switch, and an outdoor air
temperature sensor. This allows for operation of the Economizer
with outdoor air dry bulb changeover control. Additional
accessories can be added to allow for different types of changeover
control and operation of the Economizer and unit.
OUTDOOR DRY BULB CHANGEOVER— The standard
controller is shipped from the factory configured for outdoor dry bulb
changeover control. The outdoor air and supply air temperature
sensors are included as standard.
For this control mode, the outdoor temperature is compared to a
selectable set point on the sensor. See Fig. 35. If the outdoor- -air
temperature is above the set point, the Economizer will adjust the
outdoor air dampers to minimum position. If the outdoor- -air
temperature is below the set point, the position of the outdoor- -air
dampers will be controlled to provide free cooling using outdoor
air. When in this mode, the LED next to the free cooling set point
potentiometer will be on. The changeover temperature set point is
set using the switches on the sensor. See Fig. 35 for the
corresponding temperature changeover values.
In this mode of operation, the outdoor- -air temperature is compared
to the return- -air temperature and the lower temperature airstream is
used for cooling. When using this mode of changeover control, turn
the free cooling/enthalpy set point potentiometer fully clockwise to
the D setting. See Fig. 34 and Fig. 39.
