DEHUMIDIFICATION CONTROL
A dehumidification control accessory 2HU06700124 may be used with
variable speed air handlers or furnaces in high humidity areas. This
control works with the variable speed indoor unit to provide cooling at a
reduced air flow, lowering evaporator temperature and increasing latent
capacity. The humidistat in this control opens the humidistat contacts on
humidity rise. To install, refer to instructions packaged with the acces-
sory and Figures 7-8. Prior to the installation of the dehumidification
control, the jumper across the HUMIDISTAT terminals on the indoor
variable speed air handler or furnace CFM selection board must be
removed.
During cooling, if the relative humidity in the space is higher than the
desired set point of the dehumidification control, the variable speed
blower motor will operate at lower speed until the dehumidification con-
trol is satisfied. A 40-60% relative humidity level is recommended to
achieve optimum comfort.
If a dehumidification control is installed, it is recommended that a mini-
mum air flow of 325 cfm/ton be supplied at all times.
INDOOR CFM CONFIGURATION
For proper system operation the indoor CFM must be set properly.
Refer to the Technical Guide for the outdoor unit for the recommended
air flow settings for each size condensing unit and matching indoor unit.
Set the cooling speed per the instructions for the air handler or furnace.
Verify the airflow.
If installed as a communicating system (outdoor, indoor, and thermo-
stat), the system will automatically adjust to the optimal airflow settings.
These parameters can also be modified using the Touch Screen Com-
municating Control. Refer to the Touch Screen Communicating Control
owner’s manual for this procedure. Manual setting of the airflow on the
ID equipment is not necessary with the Touch Screen Communicating
Control.
