GENERAL
2-Speed Indoor Fan Motor Indoor Fan Speed System
The 2-Speed Indoor Fan Motor system utilizes a Fan Speed con-
trol board and Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) to automatically
adjust the indoor fan motor speed in sequence with the unit’s ven-
tilation, cooling and heating operation. Per ASHRAE 90.1-2016
and IECC
1
-2015 standards, during the first stage of cooling opera-
tion the 2-Speed Indoor Fan Motor system will adjust the fan mo-
tor to provide 66% of the design airflow rate for the unit. When
the call for the second stage of cooling is required, the 2-Speed In-
door Fan Motor system will allow the design airflow rate for the
unit established (100%). During the heating mode, the 2-Speed In-
door Fan Motor system will allow total design airflow rate (100%)
operation. During ventilation mode, the 2-Speed Indoor Fan Mo-
tor system will operate the fan motor at 66% of full speed.
Figures 1, 2 and 3 show the VFDs used for the 2-Speed Indoor
Fan Motor indoor fan speed system.
