Bard 357-93-E manual Barometric Fresh AIR Damper Bfad Standard

Ventilation System Packages

Bard Wall-Mounts are designed to provide optional ventilation packages to meet all of your ventilation and indoor air quality requirements. All units are equipped with a barometric fresh air damper as the standard ventilation package. All ventilation packages can be built-in at the factory, or field-installed at a later date.

BAROMETRIC FRESH AIR DAMPER - BFAD	STANDARD
The barometric fresh air damper is a standard feature on all models. It is installed on the inside of the service
door and allows outside ventilation air, up to 25% of the total airflow rating of the unit, to be introduced through the
air inlet openings and to be mixed with the conditioned air. The damper opens during blower operation and
closes when the blower is off. Adjustable blade stops allow different amounts of outside air to be introduced into
the building and can be easily locked closed if required.

Barometric Fresh Air Damper	BLANK OFF PLATE - BOP	OPTIONAL
	A blank off plate is installed on the inside of the service door. It covers the air inlet openings which restricts any

outside air from entering the unit. The blank off plate should be utilized in applications where outside air is not required to be mixed with the conditioned air.

Motorized Fresh Air Damper

Commercial Room Ventilator

MOTORIZED FRESH AIR DAMPER - MFAD OPTIONAL

The motorized fresh air damper is internally mounted behind the service door and allows outside ventilation air, up to 25% of the total airflow rating of the unit, to be introduced through the air inlet openings and to be mixed with the conditioned air. The two position damper can be fully open or closed. The damper blade is powered open by a 24VAC motor with spring return on power loss. The damper can be controlled by indoor blower operation or can be field connected to be managed based on building occupancy.

NOTE: The above vent systems are intake only without built-in exhaust capability. Building will likely require separate field installed barometric relief or mechanical exhaust elsewhere within the conditioned space. Balancing dampers in the return air grille may be required to achieve specified amount of outdoor air intake.

COMMERCIAL ROOM VENTILATOR - CRV OPTIONAL

The built-in commercial room ventilator is internally mounted behind the service door and allows outside ventilation air, up to 50% of the total airflow rating of the unit, to be introduced through the air inlet openings. It includes a built-in exhaust air damper.

The commercial room ventilator (CRV) is a simple and innovative approach to improving the indoor air quality by providing fresh air intake and exhaust capability through the CRV. The damper can be easily adjusted to control the amount of fresh air supplied into the building. The CRV can be controlled by indoor blower operation or field controlled based on room occupancy. Two versions available (except on 1.5 and 2-ton models). The CRV and CRVS are power open - spring return on power loss, and CRVP is power open and power return. Complies with ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1 “Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality”.

ECONOMIZER - EIFMOPTIONAL

The built-in economizer system is internally mounted behind the service door and allows outdoor air to be introduced through the air inlet openings. The amount of outdoor air varies in response to the system controls and settings defined by the end user. It includes a built-in exhaust air damper. The economizer is designed to provide “free cooling” when outside air conditions are cool and dry enough to satisfy cooling requirements without running the compressor. This in turn provides lower operating costs, while extending the life of the compressor.

	Standard Features:
Economizer
	• One Piece Construction - Easy to install with no mechanical linkage adjustment required.
	• Exhaust Air Damper - Built in with positive closed position. Provides exhaust air capability to prevent
	pressurization of tight buildings.
	• Actuator Motor - 24 volt, power open, spring return with built in torque limiting switch.
	• Proportioning Type Control - for maximum “free cooling” economy and comfort.
	• Moisture Eliminator & Prefilter - permanent, washable aluminum construction
	• Enthalpy Control - adjustable to monitor outdoor temperature and humidity.
	• Minimum Position Potentiometer - adjustable to control minimum damper blade position for ventilation
	purposes.
	• Mixed Air Sensor - to monitor outside and return air to automatically modulate damper position.
