BASIC ECONOMIZER OPERATION

START

Perform STEP 2

Perform STEP 3

Reapply Power to the Unit

Put thermostat fan setting to "CONTINUOUS FAN"

Set thermostat so neither heating or cooling is called

Connect Economizer Wire Harness to Unit

Check Thermostat Connections

Check for 24 VAC at Unit Transformer

Check Unit Wire Harness

24 VAC  power

available between terminal TR and TR1?

Are all LED's off &

outside air damper fully  closed?

Check Economizer Controller Model Number

(W7213A1016)

Perform STEP 2 & STEP 3 again.

If problem continues, replace controller

Turn down thermostat setting so that a call for cooling is present.

If one 

stage of cooling

is called by  the

thermostat, do first stage

compressor(s) run? If both stages

are called, do both stages

of compressors

run?

Check Thermostat Wiring

Check Unit Wiring Harness

Check Economizer Wiring

Harness. Check Unit wiring

harness at economizer

connection for proper terminal

location

Set enthalpy potentiometer on economizer controller to A (fully CCW).

The "Free Cooling" LED turns on & the EXH LED turns on.

If only one stage of cooling is called by the thermostat, then that stage

will turn off. If two stages are called by the thermostat, then only the

second stage will turn off. The power exhaust (optional) contacts will

close after 60 +/- 30 seconds. The outside air damper opens

approximately 50% (this position is determined by the actual resistance 

of the 5.6k ohm resistor placed across terminals T and T1). 

Set enthalpy potentiometer to D (fully CW).

Recheck STEP 2 and STEP 3. If LED’s turn on and damper motor

does not operate, measure voltage between terminals 24V COM and

(+ (white wire)). If approximately 6 VDC is present, replace damper

actuator. If voltage not present, or LED’s do not light replace controller.

The "Free Cooling" LED turns off & the EXH LED turns off.

 If only one stage of cooling is called by the thermostat, then that stage 

will turn back on. If two stages are called by the thermostat, then both
stages will turn on. The power exhaust (optional) contacts open & the

outside air damper fully closes. 

Set enthalpy potentiometer back to A (fully CCW).

Remove 5.6k ohm resistor and jumper terminals T to T1.

The "Free Cooling" LED turns on & the EXH LED turns on. If only one

stage of cooling is called by the thermostat, then that stage will turn off. 

If two stages of cooling are called by the thermostat, then only the

second stage will turn off. The power exhaust (optional) contacts will

close after 60 +/- 30 seconds. The outside air damper fully opens

Remove jumper from terminals T to T1 and leave open (simulates the

Freeze Protect mode).

The "Free Cooling" LED remains on & the EXH LED turns off. 

If only one stage of cooling is called by the thermostat, then that stage

will remain off. If two stages of cooling are called by the thermostat,

then only the second stage will remain off. The power exhaust

(optional) contacts opens & the outside air damper fully closes

Economizer Controller, Actuator, Wiring are correct.

Remove resistors, reconnect wires, and set up

potentiometers per jobsite requirements. 

Recheck STEP 2 and STEP 3.

If problem continues replace controller

If one 

stage of cooling

is called by  the

thermostat, do first stage

compressor(s) run? If both stages

are called, do both stages

of compressors

run?

Unplug Economizer Wire Harness from Unit Wire harness and Install

Y2 Thermostat to Y2 Compressor)
