Fan powered box temperature cascade control cooling (FpbTCasCtlC11)
Overview
The application function "Fan-powered VAV box temperature cascade control for cooling 11" (FpbTCasCtlC11) is the hub for the sequencing of the room temperature controllers for FPB cooling. It determines the room cooling setpoint and the room cooling demand signals to maintain the room temperature at the cooling setpoint.
For the cooling coils, the room demand output signal is designed for cascaded supply air temperature control in the room segment. (air sensor(s) required)
The following devices in the room segment(s) are supported:
- Cooling coil
- Chilled ceiling (panels or beams)
- Supply air VAV damper
- Fan
Function
This AF works in collaboration with a room segment HVAC device component AF for cooling. The cooling room temperature PID controller is enabled based on a signal that is read via the grouping function (from equipment in the room segment) indicating whether cooling is available.
Devices for cooling are activated in the following order (default):
Chilled ceiling > Cooling coil > Fan > VAV
