The RTU Open may enable and disable an exhaust fan, based on either the controller’s occupancy or its
economizer damper position. If the
is set to
or
, the
is automatically adjusted based on the fan’s air delivery. The
used for control is
displayed in the
section.
If
Continuous Occupied Exhaust
is
, the
binary output (BO-8) is energized while the RTU Open
is occupied and de-energized when unoccupied.
If
Continuous Occupied Exhaust
is
, the
binary output (BO-8) is energized when the economizer
damper output exceeds the
Power Exhaust (PE) Setpoint
value. The output remains energized until the
economizer output falls below the
value by a fixed hysteresis of 10%.
Pre-Occupancy Purge
Pre Occupancy Purge
allows the rooftop equipment with an economizer damper to use outdoor air to purge the
space of contaminants just prior to the beginning of the occupied period.
The following conditions must be true for pre-occupancy purge to operate:
•
set to
•
set to
• A local time schedule is configured
• The local time schedule is currently unoccupied and the remaining time is less than the configured
When the RTU Open schedule is unoccupied and the remaining unoccupied time is less than the purge time, the
supply fan starts. The economizer damper opens to the configured
. The RTU Open
continues to operate in this mode until the occupied start time is reached. The
state is displayed in
the
section.
Unoccupied Free Cooling
Unocc Free Cool Enable
allows rooftop equipment with an economizer damper to use outdoor air for free cooling
during unoccupied periods.
The following conditions must be true for unoccupied free cooling to operate:
•
set to
• The system is unoccupied
• The outside air temperature is below the
Economizer High OAT Lockout Temp
setpoint
• The outside air temperature is less than the space temperature
•
(if enabled) is
