Decreasing Temperature

 

 

 

 

Note: in the above example that the control band begins at the 70°F temperature set point and has a length of 5°F, which is ½ of the programmed temperature dead band value plus ½ of the programmed temperature proportional band value.

As the return air temperature decreases Reheat 1 is activated at 67.7°F or ½ of the dead band value plus 33% of the heating control band. If the return air temperature continues to decrease Reheat 2 will activate at 66.4°F or ½ of the dead band value plus 66% of the heating control band. If the return air temperature continues to decrease Reheat 3 will activate at 65°F or ½ of the dead band value plus 100% of the heating control band.

When the return air temperature starts to increase, Reheat 3 is deactivated at 66.4°F or ½ of the dead band value plus 66% of the heating control band. Reheat 2 is deactivated at 67.7°F or ½ of the dead band value plus 33% of the heating control band. Reheat 1 is deactivated at 69°F or ½ of the dead band value plus 0% of the heating control band.

Remember the temperature dead band value is used by the control to shift the cooling on/ off operations away from the temperature set point.
