APPENDIX C — VFD INFORMATION

On variable air volume units with optional VFD, the supply fan speed is controlled by a 3-phase VFD. The VFD is located in the supply fan section behind a removable panel. The VFD speed is controlled directly by the ComfortLink™ controls through a 4 to 20 mA signal based on a supply duct pressure sensor. The VFD has a display, which can be used for service diagnostics, but setup of the building pressure and control loop factors should be done through the scrolling marquee display. The VFD is powered during normal operation to prevent

condensation from forming on the boards during the off mode and is stopped by driving the speed to 0 (by sending a 4 mA signal to the VFD).

The A Series units use ABB VFDs. The interface wiring for the VFDs is shown in Fig. A. The VFD connects through an isolation board to the 4 to 20 mA RCB board. Terminal designations are shown in Table A. Configurations are shown in Table B.
