Figure 2. Enthalpy Sensor & Temperature Control Points

Enthalpy Operation

On a call for cooling from the wall-mounted thermostat, if outdoor conditions are suitable, 

the sensor will open the damper and admit outside air (i.e., economizer free cooling). If the 

outdoor ambient is too hot or humid (enthalpy sensor only), the sensor will place the actuator 

in the closed or minimum open position and activate mechanical cooling. The compressor is 

locked-out during the economizer cooling mode. The Supply Air sensor monitors the supply 

air of the system in economizer mode to modulate the economizer damper to maintain a 55F 

supply air temperature.
During the testing of the air conditioner at the factory, the control board has been configured for 

the sensor type used in the system. There should be no need to change the sensor configuration. 

If an enthalpy sensor is being used, setting 13 of the control board configuration menu will be 

set for EN= Enthalpy. A disconnected or faulty enthalpy sensor is annunciated on the control 

board display as “ES-F”. Economizer operation is only allowed in Cooling Mode.

Note: 

A call for Y2 or FC Inputs or a faulty or disconnected enthalpy sensor will override the 

economizer operation and force the compressor to operate. 

3.2  Dry Bulb Sensor and Operation – 

The dry bulb sensor only responds to the dry bulb temperature 

of the outside air and ignores the humidity. The sensor is a 10K NTC sensor probe. The factory 

setting is 63°F. This setpoint can be adjusted in 1F increments from 20F to 105F in the control 

board configuration menu setting 14. Example of the dry bulb sensor is shown below.

Note:

 Selecting N=No in configuration setting 12 will disable economizer operation.
