DDC AHU Control

Free cooling application

Operation Description
For auto mode, direct digital controller, DDC (DDC-1)
provides time schedule for start/stop operation of AHU.

At free cooling operation, the motorized cooling valve (TV-1)

will be driven to fully closed position.

Duct type temperature sensor (TE-3) is installed to

sense the supply air temperature. Direct digital
controller, DDC (DDC-1) provides modulating (PI)
control for the motorized valve (TV-1), so as to maintain
the desired supply air temperature.

If the enthalpy of outdoor air is higher than that of return air or

outdoor air temperature is higher than the set point of supply
air temperature, the motorized return air damper (DA-1) will be
driven to maximum position, while the motorized outdoor air
damper (DA-2) will be driven to minimum position.

The supply air temperature set point is reset by the

return air temperature, sensed by duct type
temperature sensor (TE1), based on a reset schedule.

The controller interlocks with the supply fan status, so that on

fan shut down, the controller will be switched off, the cooling
valve will be driven to its closed position, and the dampers be
driven to fully closed position.

Duct type temperature sensors (TE-1, 2) and humidity

sensors (HE-1, 2) is installed to sense the return and
fresh air temperature and humidity. DDC calculates the
enthalpy values of return and fresh air based on the
sensed value, so as to provide free cooling control.

The differential pressure switch (DPS-1) monitors the status of

filter, when the set point is exceeded, a signal will be given to
DDC.

If the enthalpy of outdoor air is lower than that of return

air with a enthalpy differential and the outdoor air
temperature is lower than the supply air setpoint, the
motorized return air damper (DA-1) will be driven to
minimum opening, while the motorized outdoor air
damper (DA-2) will be driven to maximum opening.
