Operation - Economizer

Only models
Option EC-1
(Outside Air Temperature Reference)
This option uses one dry bulb temperature sensor
After a call for cooling, the outside air temperature is compared to the economizer set point. If the outside air temperature is above the economizer set point, the economizer sends the dampers to the minimum outside air position and calls for mechanical cooling. If the outside air temperature is between the economizer set point and 55°F, the economizer sends the dampers to the 100% outside air position. If the outside air
is less than 55°F, the economizer modulates the dampers to achieve a 55°F mixed air temperature.
Option EC-2
(Outside Air Enthalpy Reference)
This option uses one enthalpy sensor
After a call for cooling, the outside air enthalpy is compared to the
Option EC-3
(Differential Temperature Control)
This option uses one dry bulb temperature sensor
After a call for cooling the economizer compares the outdoor and return air temperatures. If the outdoor air temperature is greater than the return air dry bulb temperature, the economizer sends the dampers to the minimum outside air position and sends a call for mechanical cooling. If the outside air temperature is less than the return air temperature, the economizer will modulate the dampers to achieve a 55°F mixed air temperature. If the outside air temperature is less than the return air temperature, but a 55°F mixed air temperature cannot be achieved, the programmable room thermostat may call for mechanical cooling.
Option EC-4
(Differential Enthalpy Control)
This option uses one enthalpy sensor,
After a call for cooling the economizer compares the outdoor and return air enthalpies. If the outdoor air enthalpy is greater than the return air enthalpy, the economizer sends the dampers to the minimum outside air position and sends a call for mechanical cooling. If the outside enthalpy is less than the return air enthalpy, the economizer will modulate the dampers to achieve a 55°F mixed air temperature. If the outside enthalpy is less than the return air temperature, but a 55°F mixed air temperature cannot be achieved, the programmable room thermostat may call for mechanical cooling.
