VAV COOLING WITH WARM-UP Ð Including the warm- fup switch in the volume controller/thermostat circuit al- lows the unit to deliver air when there is warm air in the duct system, even though the cooling thermostat is satis®ed by cool space temperature.

The warm-up switch is actually a temperature controlled pneumatic valve which is normally open at primary air sup- ply temperatures below approximately 64 F. It is installed in-line between the volume controller and the thermostat.

When warm primary air is supplied to restore comfort con- ditions in the space after an extended shutdown, the warm-up switch reacts by closing (Fig. 59). This removes the ther- mostat from the control circuit and prevents air from bleed- ing from the low pressure chamber of the volume controller. This condition simulates a thermostat calling for maximum primary-air delivery. The unit is now, in effect, a CV unit and operates at the set point of the volume controller. This

condition will continue as long as air in the duct system re- mains at a temperature higher than approximately 80 F. As the supply air returns to normal cooling temperatures, the switch opens and control is returned to the cooling thermo- stat. See Fig. 60.

Because the units are shut off, it may be difficult to es- tablish the ¯ow of warm air to initiate warm-up. One method of overcoming this problem is to install one or more CV units near the end of the duct run. Where possible, a constant vol- ume unit is located in space not continuously occupied such as halls, aisles, or storage rooms. It can also be helpful in an area bene®ting from continuous circulation. By locating such a unit at the end of a duct run, the heated air for morning warm-up is assured of reaching the VAV units. See Fig. 61.
