1. Determine the desired DTMeasure entering air temperature
using dry bulb (A) and wet bulb (B). DT is the intersecting value of A
and B in the table (see triangle).
2. Find temperature drop across coilMeasure the coil’s dry bulb
entering and leaving air temperatures (A and C). Temperature Drop
Formula: (T
Drop
) = A minus C.
3. Determine if fan needs adjustmentIf the difference between
the measured T
Drop
and the desired DT (T
Drop
–DT) is within +3º, no
adjustment is needed. See examples: Assume DT = 15 and A temp.
= 72º, these C temperatures would necessitate stated actions:
Cº T
Drop
– DT = ºF ACTION
53º 19 – 15 = 4 Increase the airflow
58º 14 – 15 = −1 (within +
3º range) no change
62º 10 – 15 = −5 Decrease the airflow
4. Adjust the fan speedSee indoor unit instructions to
increase/decrease fan speed.
Changing air flow affects all temperatures; recheck temperatures to
confirm that the temperature drop and DT are within +
3º.
