HEAT ANTICIPATOR SETPOINTS
It is important that the anticipator setpoint be correct. Too high of a setting will result in longer heat cycles and a greater temperature swing in the conditioned space. Reducing the value below the correct setpoint will give shorter “ON” cycles and may result in the lowering of the temperature within the conditioned space. Refer to Table 10 for the required heat anticipator setting.
CHECKING SUPPLY AIR CFM
The speed of the supply air blower will depend on the required CFM, the unit accessories and the static resistances of both the supply and the return air duct systems. With this information,

obtain the desired supply air CFM. Refer to Table 7 for blower motor and drive data. The tension on the belts should be adjusted as shown in Figure 7.
Start the supply air blower motor. Adjust the resistances in both the supply and the return air duct systems to balance the air distribution throughout the conditioned space. The job specifications may require that this balancing be done by someone other than the equipment installer.
To check the supply air CFM after the initial balancing has been completed:
1.Remove the (two) " dot plugs from the holes located on the filter access panel side of the unit.
2.Insert at least 8" of 1/4 inch tubing into each of these holes for sufficient penetration into the air flow on both sides of the evaporator coil.
NOTE: The tubes must be inserted and held in a position perpendicular to the air flow so that velocity pres- sure will not affect the static pressure readings.
3.Using an inclined manometer, determine the pressure drop across a dry indoor coil. Since the moisture on an indoor coil may vary greatly, measuring the pressure drop across a wet coil under field conditions would be inaccurate. To assure a dry coil, the compressors should be
4.Knowing the pressure drop across a dry coil, the actual CFM through the unit can be determined from the curve in Figure 8.
