OPERATING SEQUENCES

Base Unit Controls
Cooling, Units Without Economizer

When thermostat calls for Stage 1 cooling, terminals G

and Y1 are energized. The indoor--fan contactor (IFC),

outdoor fan contactor (OFC) and Compressor 1 contactor

(C1) are energized and indoor-fan motor, outdoor fan and

Compressor 1 start. The outdoor fan motor runs

continuously while unit is in Stage 1 or Stage 2 cooling.

(D08 and D12 units have two outdoor fans; both run while

unit is in Stage 1 or Stage 2 cooling.)

If Stage 1 cooling does not satisfy the space load , the

space temperature will rise until thermostat calls for Stage

2 cooling (Y2 closes). Compressor 2 contactor (C2) is

energized; Compressor 2 starts and runs.

Heating, Units Without Economizer

When the thermostat calls for heating, terminal W1 is

energized. To prevent thermostat short-cycling, the unit is

locked into the Heating mode for at least 1 minute when

W1 is energized. The induced-draft motor is energized

and the burner ignition sequence begins. The indoor

(evaporator) fan motor (IFM) is energized 45 seconds

after a flame is ignited.

If Stage 1 heating does not satisfy the space load, the

space temperature will fall until thermostat calls for Stage

2 heating (W2 closes). Terminal W2 is energized and the

high-fire solenoid on the main gas valve (MGV) is

energized. Firing rate increases to high-fire. When space

load is partially satisfied, terminal W2 is deenergized; the

high-fire solenoid is deenergized and heating operation

continues on low--fire.

When the space heating load is fully satisfied, thermostat

terminal W1 is also deenergized. All heating operations

cease. The IFM stops after a 45-second time off delay.

Cooling, Unit With EconoMi$er IV

For Occupied mode operation of EconoMi$er IV, there

must be a 24-v signal at terminals TR and N (provided

through PL6-3 from the unit’s IFC coil). Removing the

signal at N places the EconoMi$er IV control in

Unoccupied mode.

During Occupied mode operation, indoor fan operation

will be accompanied by economizer dampers moving to

Minimum Position setpoint for ventilation. If indoor fan is

off, dampers will close. During Unoccupied mode

operation, dampers will remain closed unless a Cooling

(by free cooling) or DCV demand is received.

When free cooling using outside air is not available, the

unit cooling sequence will be controlled directly by the

space thermostat as described above as Cooling, Unit

Without Economizer. Outside air damper position will be

closed or Minimum Position as determined by occupancy

mode and fan signal.

When free cooling is available as determined by the

appropriate changeover command (dry bulb, outdoor

enthalpy, differential dry bulb or differential enthalpy), a

call for cooling (Y1 closes at the thermostat) will cause

the economizer control to modulate the dampers open and

closed to maintain the unit supply air temperature at 50 to

55_F. Compressor will not run.

During free cooling operation, a supply air temperature

(SAT) above 50_F will cause the dampers to modulate

between Minimum Position setpoint and 100% open. With

SAT from 50_F to 45_F, the dampers will maintain at the

Minimum Position setting. With SAT below 45_F, the

outside air dampers will be closed. When SAT rises to

48_F, the dampers will re-open to Minimum Position

setting.

Should 100% outside air not be capable of satisfying the

space temperature, space temperature will rise until Y2 is

closed. The economizer control will call for compressor

operation. Dampers will modulate to maintain SAT at 50

to 55_F concurrent with Compressor 1 operation. The

Low Ambient Lockout Thermostat will block compressor

operation with economizer operation below 42_F outside

air temperature.

When space temperature demand is satisfied (thermostat

Y1 opens), the dampers will return to Minimum Damper

position if indoor fan is running or fully closed if fan is

off.

If accessory power exhaust is installed, the power exhaust

fan motors will be energized by the economizer control as

the dampers open above the PE-On setpoint and will be

de----energized as the dampers close below the PE-On

setpoint.

Damper movement from full closed to full open (or vice

versa) will take between 1-1/2 and 2-1/2 minutes.

Heating With EconoMi$er IV

During Occupied mode operation, indoor fan operation

will be accompanied by economizer dampers moving to

Minimum Position setpoint for ventilation. If indoor fan is

off, dampers will close. During Unoccupied mode

operation, dampers will remain closed unless a DCV

demand is received.

When the room temperature calls for heat (W1 closes), the

heating controls are energized as described in Heating,

Unit Without Economizer above.

Demand Controlled Ventilation

If a field-installed CO2 sensor is connected to the

Economize IV control, a Demand Controlled Ventilation

strategy will operate automatically. As the CO2 level in

the space increases above the setpoint (on the EconoMi$er

IV controller), the minimum position of the dampers will

be increased proportionally, until the Maximum

Ventilation setting is reached. As the space CO2 level

decreases because of the increase in fresh air, the

outdoor-damper will follow the higher demand condition

from the DCV mode or from the free-cooling mode.
