BALANCING PROCEDURE – CBT12iVAV
This method will auto-calculate and set the K factor P4L08 TABPriKFactor (A214).
To utilize this feature, perform the following steps on Menu Page 4: Primary Balancing.
Note: Each parameter is shown below with its Menu page and line number, its Parameter Name and the
associated (Setpoint Number)
1. After determining what the maximum CFM setpoint is going to be for the VAV box, set
TABPriAirManMode (D204) to .
2. Note the value in TABPriManStpt (A218).
3. Wait for the value of PriAirFlowCV (A194) to stabilize, then:
• If the value of PriAirFlowCV (A194) reaches the value noted in step 2, get a hood
reading at the diffusers to get the actual CFM of the VAV box.
• If the value of PriAirFlowCV (A194) doesn’t reach the value noted in step 2, set
TABPriManStpt (A218) to a value below the value reached by PriAirFlowCV (A194) as a
reference point.
4. Set the TABPriHoodAtMax (A245) to the actual CFM reading that was recorded utilizing the
hood.
5. Set the TABAutoCalKfactor (D151) to . It will stay for 4 seconds then automatically be
set back to . This will automatically set the TABPriKFactor (A214) internally, through the
Strategy calculating the required K factor. It will also set the TABPriAirManMode (D204) to
, and the calculated EffPriAirFlowStpt (A197) will go back to normal operation.
Note: When setting the TABPriAirManMode (D204) to , it will stay on until the time entered
on point TABPriAirManModeTimer (A217) has expired, unless TABAutoCalKfactor (D151) is
set to . The default for TABPriAirManModeTimer (A217) is 600 seconds or 10 minutes.
