SEQUENCE OF OPERATION (cont.)

580J

On the initial power to the EconoMi$er IV control, it will take the damper up to 2 1/2 minutes before it begins to position itself. After the initial power-up, further changes in damper position can take up to 30 seconds to initiate. Damper movement from full closed to full open (or vice versa) will take between 1 1/2 and 2 1/2 minutes. If free cooling can be used as determined from the appropriate changeover command (switch, dry bulb, enthalpy curve, differential dry bulb, or differential enthalpy), then the control will modulate the dampers open to maintain the mixed air temperature setpoint at 50_F (10_C) to 55_F (13_C). If there is a further demand for cooling (cooling second stage - Y2 is energized), then the control will bring on compressor stage 1 to maintain the mixed air temperature setpoint. The EconoMi$er IV damper will be open at maximum position. EconoMi$er IV operation is limited to a single compressor.

Heating

The sequence of operation for the heating is the same as an electromechanical unit with no economizer. The only difference is how the economizer acts. The economizer will stay at the Economizer Minimum Position while the evaporator fan is operating. The outdoor air damper is closed when the indoor fan is not operating.

Optional Perfect Humidity Dehumidification System

Units with the factory equipped Perfect Humidity option are capable of providing multiple modes of improved dehumidification as a variation of the normal cooling cycle. The Perfect Humidity option includes additional valves in the liquid line and discharge line of each refrigerant circuit, a small reheat condenser coil downstream of the evaporator, and Motormaster

variable-speed control of some or all outdoor fans. Operation of the revised refrigerant circuit for each mode is described below.

NOTE: x = refrigerant circuit A, B, or C.

Normal Cooling

Refrigerant flows from the outdoor condenser through the normally open Cooling Valve (CV.x) to the expansion device. Reheat1 Valve (RH1.x) and Reheat2 Valve (RH2.x) are closed.

Reheat1 (Subcooling Mode) - 580J04-14

This mode increases latent cooling and decreases sensible cooling compared to normal cooling. Refrigerant flows from the outdoor condenser, through the normally open Reheat1 Valve (RH1.x), and through the reheat condenser coil to the expansion device. Cooling Valve (CV.x) and Reheat2 Valve (RH2.x) are closed.

Reheat2 (Hot Gas Reheat Mode) - 580J04-14

This mode provides maximum latent cooling with little to no sensible capacity. This mode can operate to provide dehumidification when there is no cooling demand. Like Reheat1 mode, refrigerant flows from the outdoor condenser, through the normally open Reheat1 Valve (RH1.x), and through the reheat condenser coil to the expansion device. The Cooling Valve (CV.x) is closed. Reheat2 Valve (RH2.x) is open which provides some compressor discharge gas to the reheat condenser to further increase the reheat of the evaporator airstream.
