Open the catalog to page 7Features & Benefits Precise Temperature and Dehumidification Control removal. Humid outdoor air is not bypassed around the coil until the total amount of cooling air required is less than the total amount of fresh outdoor air required in the room. Figure 5 and Figure 6 below compare the composition of the air streams through the coil and air streams bypassing the coil at various bypass air percentages for draw-thru and blow-thru unit ventilators using 450 cfm of outdoor air. At both 0% bypass air and 100% bypass air, no difference exists in the composition of the air streams. However, at all...
Open the catalog to page 8Features & Benefits This illustrates that the most effective way to maintain an acceptable humidity level with a chilled-water unit ventilator system is to use a face and bypass damper, draw-thru unit. Why Blow-Thru Designs Don’t Measure Up Blow-thru designs cannot provide comfort like this. With blow-thru designs, the humid outside air is pre-mixed with the room air before it can go through the coil (Figure 7). Dehumidification occurs only to the portion of the air that is directed unevenly through the cooling coil. The air that bypasses the coil is largely humid outdoor air, resulting in unconditioned...
