Electromechanical Economizer Testing
Electromechanical Mixed Air Sensor
When the outdoor air thermostat is in the cold position (closed), the unit will attempt to economize
if a fan (G) and cooling (Y1) call exists at the ECA module. This is readily apparent at the ECA, as
the “OK to economize” LED will be on. During this time, the ECA is measuring the Mixed Air
temperature via the Mixed Air Sensor (MAS).
Service Tips
The MAS sensor is not energized unless the LED is on (G signal present, OK to economize), and the
Y1 signal is present.
If the MAS is open, approximately 4.3 VDC will be seen.
Outdoor Air Thermostat opens at 70°F and closes at 60°F.
Read the voltage with the sensor connected, read the resistance with the sensor disconnected.
