RELIEF DAMPERS

Factory-installed EconoMi$er utilizes a microprocessor-based con- trol, gear drive damper system, low pressure drop characteristics, built-in spring return (for close upon power loss), and an integral barometric damper.

NOTE: EconoMi$er is only available for vertical ductwork applica- tions and can be field or factory installed.

DURABLADE ECONOMIZER

Exclusive Durablade economizer damper design saves energy while providing economical and reliable cooling. A sliding plate on the face of the economizer controls the amount of outdoor air entering the system. When the sliding plate is closed, it provides a leakproof seal which prevents ambient air from seeping in or conditioned air from seeping out. It can be easily adjusted for 100% outdoor air or any proportions of mixed air. Equipped with standard controls and 30% barometric relief capabilities.

PERFECT HUMIDITY™ DEHUMIDIFICATION PACKAGE

The Perfect Humidity dehumidification package is a factory-installed option that provides increased dehumidification by cooling the hot liquid refrigerant leaving the condenser coil. The package consists of a subcooling coil located on the leaving-air side of the evaporator coil. The location of this coil in the indoor-air stream enhances the latent capacity of the 581B units by as much as 40%. The Perfect Humidity package includes crankcase heater(s) and low-pressure switch(es) and operation can be controlled by a field-installed, wall-mounted humidistat or light commercial thermidistat.
