ceiling designs and building control systems. Moduline t ter - minals installed in modular ceilings can be moved easily when tenant requirements change, and the quiet, linear slot distri- bution integrates well in most commercial ceilings. Figure 2 shows a 37HS Moduline unit with variable air volume (V A V) controls. The basic Moduline terminal con[...]

LOAD CONSIDERA TIONS Lighting — Even though lighting loads (W atts/sq ft) are con- siderably lower in today’ s buildings, the lighting is by far the largest load component. It is necessary , therefore, to pay close attention to getting an accurate estimate of the lighting requirements. In estimating the lighting load, special consideration shou[...]

Supply Air T emperature — In systems using draw-thru air handling units and high induction Carrier Moduline t termi- nal units, the acceptable range of supply air temperatures at the terminals is from 50 to 54 F . The cooling coil ADP (Ap- paratus Dew Point) will be from 3 to 5° F lower than the supply air temperature, due to allowance for coil [...]

Moduline t Selection (Analysis of Data) — The printout shown below presents an analysis of the preceding data. Heating — Heat must be provided in a building to of fset losses through the perimeter walls, windows, and roof. In the interior spaces the heat gain from lights and people will in many cases be enough to cause a cooling load even in wi[...]

Changeover Moduline t Heating/Cooling — Both hot air and cold air distribution are possible with a Moduline system. The Moduline unit uses a director dif fuser which, sensing the duct temperature of the supply air , directs the air towards or away from the perimeter wall. (Fig. 7.) The Moduline location for heating and cooling requires the unit t[...]

Additional Guidelines for Heating — In addition to down- blow slot boot dif fusers and Moduline director dif fusers, round nozzles spaced along the perimeter wall will also provide satisfactory overhead heating distribution. Some guidance for outlet use are shown in T ables 1 and 2. Moduline heating and cooling is less flexible than sepa- rate d[...]

CONTROL END — The control end of a Moduline t unit is the end containing a control block at the end plate of the valve section of the unit. (Fig. 12.) The end of the unit op- posite the control end contains a blank block. The control end of the Moduline unit is at the longer of the dif fuser pro- jections from the plenum. In Fig. 13, the longer p[...]

As a result, slightly higher maximum cfm per unit is al- lowed as compared to interior zones or the north perimeter , which have relatively constant loads. The maximum cfm per unit also is af fected by the desired sound level in the room and the type of use of the space. For example, an executive of f ice uses low sound levels but the furnishings g[...]

EV ALUA TE THE THROW OF MODULINE t UNITS IN POSSIBLE LOCA TIONS — Check minimum throw for 2-way blow dif fuser near walls and all one-way blow dif fusers. Exceeding maximum throw is almost never a problem. A 2-way blow unit covers 50 ft at nominal cfm. In perimeter rooms, if 2-way blow units are of f center , favor the exterior wall if possible. [...]

ST AGGER SP ACING — A frequently used layout method is to stagger the units. This arrangement gives good cover - age, solves the problem of drafts when units blow at each other , and is low cost. It also gives good flexibility for future partition changes. (Fig. 17.) MAXIMUM UNIT SP ACING — Interior zones use less air , as low as 0.4 to 0.6 cf[...]

FLEX DUCT IN AIR SERIES — Flexible duct is often used in air series to connect Moduline t units. In calculating pres- sure requirements for units in air series, use the following guidelines: 1. For close-coupled units (either continuous dif fuser or units in adjoining ceiling modules) where the flexible duct used is 6 to 8 in. in length, add 0.1[...]

Step 4 — Determine Controller Location — The final step in the terminal selection and layout process is to decide where the controllers will be placed. The temperature control zones in the building will be de- termined by the final partition layout. Before the final par- tition layout has been determined, you must install enough controllers [...]

4. The controller for units in an air series should be located as shown in Fig. 28. 5. V olume controllers for units in an air series must be con- nected from master to slave units in the same air series; they must not be connected to units in a dif ferent air series from that of the master unit. See examples shown in Fig. 29 and 30. 6. T o connect[...]

EXAMPLES OF GUIDELINE USE — Figure 29 shows an incorrect application. Figure 30 shows the corrected layout. An incorrect application: 1. Room A & B units are on the same controller but on different duct air series. 2. Room B calls for half the cfm as in units in room A — not feasible because there is only one controller . 3. Units in room C[...]

The corrected layout: 1. Room A has its own controller . 2. Room B has its own controller . 3. Room C has a correct air series for one control. 4. Room D has the controller in the proper location. Fig. 30 — Corrected Layout Fig. 31 — Control T ubing Connection 40[...]

Final Layout — After these 4 steps are complete, you are ready to make a final layout. The final layout should show not only the number and lo- cation of the Moduline units, but also: • the round duct size connected to the unit • the controller location • the control tube layout for connecting the master unit (with thermostat) to all its [...]

HIGH AND LOW PRESSURE — As primary air flows from the unit plenum to the unit air valve and from there to the conditioned space, it passes through a slotted plate called the distribution baf f le. The resistance of the baf f le tends to ‘ ‘even out’ ’ the airflow through the unit. The baf f le also cre- ates a pressure dif ferential whi[...]

BELLOWS PRESSURE — As the airflow through the unit changes, the high and low pressures vary proportionately . Comparing these 2 pressures, the unit volume controller pro- vides a bellows pressure which in turn inflates the unit air valve. Bellows pressure varies from near zero at full flow to plenum or duct pressure at shutof f. UNIT AIRFLOW D[...]

Both CV and V A V control packages include a plastic baffle which is installed over the vertical leg of the center dif fuser and blocks the unused portion of the dif fuser slots. See Fig. 42.

V A V Cooling W ith Electric Heat Interlock — (Function 8.) In cases where V A V cooling terminals are used in conjunc- tion with a separate heating system, such as perimeter heat- ing, it is necessary to prevent the heating equipment from turning on before the cooling system turns of f.

AIRFLOW ADJUSTMENT Each 37HS volume controller is equipped with a maxi- mum cfm lever for setting the required unit airflow in the field. The lever is located at the bottom of the controller . See Fig. 84. The controller has a star wheel located at the top of the controller for setting the minimum airflow . The star wheel is also shown in Fig. 8[...]

V ariation in Maximum Airflow — As explained in the T erminal Selection and Layout section, Moduline t units in air series can be controlled individually with a volume controller at each unit, or with a master/slave combination, where one controller is used with multiple units. All the units on one controller must be of the same model (capacity)[...]

AIR DISTRIBUTION Linear slot dif fusers are an integral part of the Moduline unit. They provide excellent air distribution for the condi- tioned space. The dif fuser configuration is designed to in- duce room air , creating continuous air motion for occupants of the room and reasonably consistent temperatures from floor to ceiling.
