VerticalAire™ dehumidifiers may be equipped with a damper box that isolates
the unit when in unoccupied mode. A damper actuator in the box positions the
damper open when occupied. Airflow must be balanced in this mode. If this
option is equipped, operate the unit in occupied mode of operation and
balance according to the DOAS procedure above.
3.3.2.2.1 Damper Box Equipped VerticalAire™ Systems
VerticalAire™ dehumidifiers may be equipped with a damper box
that allows the unit to operate with recirculation air in the
unoccupied mode. Damper actuators in the box position the
dampers in the box to operate in full outdoor air mode or full
recirculation mode. Airflow must be balanced in both modes.
3.3.3 Airflow Balancing for Dedicated Outdoor Air System (DOAS) with
Unoccupied Recirculation
For Aura™ Products
Dehumidifiers designed for dedicated outdoor air operation with unoccupied
recirculation mode have two potential flow paths for supply air: full outdoor air or full
recirculation. The unit may have an energy recovery wheel and an exhaust airstream,
but these paths do not mix in a DOAS unit. A damper is installed on the intake of the
units ordered for outdoor installation; provisions for field installed damper are provided
on units to be installed indoors. A recirculation damper is installed within the unit.
Damper actuator control acts as binary. Outside air damper should be in the fully
closed position during unoccupied mode and fully open in the occupied mode with the
recirculation damper always in the opposite condition. Before starting the balancing
process, check that the ductwork is clear of any obvious restrictions.
Begin in occupied mode. Once the airflow damper is fully open and the recirculation
damper is fully closed, verify that the controller indicates the correct airflow. If too little
airflow is displayed, but the blower control signal is at maximum, there is too much
external static resistance. Evaluate ducts for high restriction. Repeat the process for
unoccupied mode, verifying that the outside air damper is fully closed and the
recirculation damper is fully open. Allow the blower to reach steady state before
verifying that the controller indicates the correct airflow.
For Aura™ units with an external enthalpy wheel, in occupied mode, use a
magnehelic or inclined manometer to measure the air pressure drop of the exhaust
blower. Increase the controller signal up or down until the exhaust air pressure drop
matches the pressure drop indicated on the wheel module label. DOAS units do not
have automatic control of the exhaust blowers. Verify that, in unoccupied mode, the
exhaust blower shuts down.
