F. When the lead boiler is energized by the DDC system, its water isolation valve shall open and the boiler shall not be allowed to be enabled until the DDC system verifies proof of water flow through the boiler by the flow switch located in the boiler water discharge pipe.

When the outdoor temperature is above 75F, the design cooling minimum outdoor air airflow setpoint is used (ASHRAE 62 Ventilation Effectiveness of 1.0).

General Operation 1. The AHU operates as a variable air volume system and consists of; a supply fan with variable frequency drive, exhaust fan with variable frequency drive, enthalpy energy recovery wheel with outdoor air and exhaust air bypasses, air filters, heating hot water coil, chilled water cooling coil, and UVc lights downstream of the cooling coil. Note, the variable frequency drives do not have a bypass contactor, that is, the variable frequency drives only contain an inverter section which will control the speed of the motor. 2. The AHU is scheduled for automatic operation through the DDC system on a time of day basis for occupied and unoccupied modes. 3. The heating coil shall have a run-a round pump that operates whenever the outdoor temperature is below 38F or the freeze stat activates. And the heating coil has a temperature sensor on the downstream side, its purpose is to prevent the heating coil discharge temperature from falling below 50F (adj). B. Occupied Mode 1. The supply and exhaust fans run continuously, the outdoor air dampers and return air bypass dampers modulate as required to maintain minimum outdoor air setpoint. The unit is controlled as follows ED1-045C

15 2. The DDC system shall determine the discharge air temperature control point. When the outdoor air temperature is above 55F (adj), the supply air temperature will be maintained at 55F (adj). When the outdoor air temperature is below 55F (adj), the supply air temperature shall be linearly reset between 55F (adj) and 60F (adj) as follows; when the outside air temperature is above 55F (adj) AHU supply air temperature is 55F and when the outside air temperature is below 10F (adj) the supply air temperature is 60F (adj). 3. The DDC system shall determine the supply air duct static pressure control point and shall operate the supply fan variable frequency drive. The DDC system shall monitor the damper position of each terminal unit associated with the AHU and shall reset the supply air duct static pressure control point based on the zone requiring the most pressure, that is, the static pressure control point shall be reset lower until one zone damper is nearly wide open, and the duct static pressure shall be limited to operate between 1.5 WC (adj) and 3.0 WC (adj) measured 2/3 downstream of the supply fan discharge. Supply fan motor speed shall not fall below 25% rated speed, and shall not exceed 100% rated speed. 4. Economizer operation When the outdoor air temperature is below 60F (adj) economizer operation free cooling shall be allowed. The DDC system shall operate the outdoor air and return air dampers, energy recovery section, heating hot water coil control valve and cooling coil control valve in sequence and without overlap to maintain discharge air temperature, that is, if the energy recovery section cannot provide sufficient energy transfer then heating hot water coil control valve shall modulate as required to provide additional heat to maintain discharge air control point, and if the energy recovery wheel is providing too much heat then the exhaust air bypass damper shall modulate and when this damper is fully open and if the energy recovery wheel still provides too much heat then the outside air bypass dampers shall modulate open as required to maintain discharge air temperature. When the outdoor air temperature is above 60F (adj), economizer is disabled. During economizer operation, outdoor air airflow rate shall not fall below minimum outdoor air airflow control point. 5. Energy Recovery Section operation The DDC system shall operate the energy recovery section as required to maximize energy recovery, including modulating each of the two bypass dampers to control AHU discharge air temperature. The energy recovery section shall maximize energy recovery prior to allowing the heating coil to operate. The energy recovery section shall maximize energy recovery during mechanical cooling by allowing the cooling coil to operate during economizer, and, during cooling energy recovery each bypass damper shall remain fully closed. The energy recovery wheel shall also operate whenever the outdoor air temperature exceeds the return air temperature, incorporating a 2F (adj) differential to prevent the wheel from excessive starting and stopping. The energy recovery section shall incorporate a frost control mode when the outdoor temperature is below 30F (adj), to prevent the energy recovery wheel from accumulating too much frost, and, the DDC system shall determine when frost is occurring by measuring the pressure differential across the energy recovery wheel and shall modulate the bypass dampers as required to reduce energy recovery to remove frost from the wheel. During frost control the mixed air temperature sensor shall control the outdoor air and return air bypass dampers to maintain 45F mixed air temperature. If the DDC system detects the energy recovery wheel is not operating when it should be operating when the outdoor air temperature is below 40F, then the mixed air temperature sensor shall control the outdoor air and return air bypass dampers to maintain 45F mixed air temperature. If the DDC system detects the energy recovery wheel is not operating when it should be operating, the DDC system shall indicate an alarm. 6. Exhaust fan operation The DDC system shall operate the exhaust fan variable frequency drive.
