Introduction
Daikin RAH & RDS air handling equipment trace their history
to the late 1970s. With decades of innovation, design flexibility,
durable construction, low capitol and operating cost, make RAH
and RDS the preferred HVAC solution for thousand of most
prominent building projects. RAH & RDS are ideal options for
a job where energy efficiency, reliability, indoor air quality and
acoustic are top priorities. Along with providing high quality
and state-of-the-art technology, RAH & RDS offer the following
valuable features and benefits to satisfy a wide range of diverse
applications.
Daikin RoofPak air handlers are applicable to schools, offices,
shopping centers, manufacturing facilities, etc.

Economical First Cost


Daikin RoofPak air handling units are single-piece construction
that reduces field labor, installation time and expense. Units up
to 52 feet long are a standard single piece. Units may be split
at the Supply Air Fan section bulkhead for convenience in job
site handling. Split units are provided with a connection kit for a
water-tight joint at the job site.
Individually extensive factory testing and checkout procedures
reduce startup and installation expense. An optional valve
package and power package provide complete factory piping
and wiring for quick connections. The prefabricated roof curb
with integral duct support fits inside the unit base for a leaktight installation that eliminates the need for field-provided duct
supports. Lifting brackets in the base channel permit quick,
inexpensive rigging.
The high CFM capacity eliminates the need to install two units
when one can do the job

Energy Efficient System


The large cross-sectional area of the unit holds static pressure
drops to a minimum, reducing fan horsepower requirements. In
addition, the entire cabinet is fully insulated to minimize heat loss
or gain for overall energy conservation.
To complement the efficient cabinet design, Daikin's patented
UltraSeal low leak dampers are provided as standard
feature. UltraSeal dampers significantly reduce infiltration
losses with the lowest leakage rate in the industry (less than
1.5 cfm/ft2 at 1" SP). The hollow core airfoil type damper
provides 12 times the insulating factor over flat blade
dampers. Operating economy is maximized with available
comparative enthalpy control on the economizer cycle to
take full advantage of outside air for cooling.

Improving Indoor Air Quality


For flexibility in selecting filtration filter, Daikin includes: MERV
8, 11, 13, or 14 options with & without pre-filters. Microbialresistant filters are also an available option. Double-wall panel
construction that eliminates fibers in the supply air stream and is
easy to clean. Units are provided with double-sloped, galvanized
or stainless steel drain pans to eliminate stagnant water and
minimize bacterial growth.

Quiet System Operation


Low decibel output is provided by structural quality and
specialized design. Units can be equipped with SWSI airfoil
plenum fans for excellent acoustics and better efficiency. Supply
and return fans are equipped with 200,000 hour greaseable ball
bearings for reliable operation.

Lower Maintenance Costs


Service and maintenance are performed out of the occupied
space eliminating any inconvenience to the occupants. Control
and product reliability functions is designed for single source
responsibility and improved reliability.
Units are constructed of pre-painted galvanized steel. Hinged
access doors are provided on both sides of each section. This
design eliminates the need for stepladders to remove multiple
screws common to the access panels used on most competitive
rooftop units. Hinges are stainless steel. A single lever roller
latching mechanism is located at the unit base to provide easy
access. All wiring is in accordance with the National Electrical
Code (NEC). All components are UL listed where applicable. For
easy identification, all electrical components are labeled and all
wiring is color and number coded. Large, conveniently located
control panels with full access doors offer easy servicing of units
with the power package. Units also are equipped with a 115-volt
outlet located in the main control panel for added convenience.
Operating and safety controls are centrally located behind a
hinged, deadfront safety panel.
Three-phase factory fusing available for fan motors provides
positive protection against damage from short circuits and
locked rotor conditions. In addition, phase failure and ground
fault protection can be provided. The MicroTech III unit controller
provides complete temperature control and, if required, static
pressure control for VAV systems.
The MicroTech III control system is provided with a keypad
display module mounted in the main control panel for entering
set points and unit monitoring.

Airfoil fans provided with a factory-mounted variable frequency


drive, with MicroTech III controls, significantly reducing fan
power when applied to variable air volume (VAV) systems.
Our industry leading Protocol Selectability feature provides
effective BAS selection flexibility. Factory integrated and
commissioned MicroTech IIII DDC unit control systems,
eliminate the need for additional cost and time field installation
of controls.
Economizers reduce compressor operating hours and energy
costs for year-round free cooling capability.

spring return type actuator can be installed to operate the
interconnected dampers.
The patented UltraSeal low leak dampers are standard
equipment on both outdoor and return air dampers. This
damper drastically reduces energy losses due to conduction
and infiltration. The hollow core airfoil type damper provides
12 times the insulating factor over flat blade dampers. Air
leakage is maintained below 1.5 cfm/ft2 at 1" SP, as tested
and confirmed in accordance with AMCA Standard 500. This is
accomplished with the following design features:
Heavy-duty, tubular airfoil blades that eliminate twisting
and warping while minimizing air pressure drop.
Heavy-duty construction allows the use of larger 7" wide
blades running the full height of the cabinet. Fewer blades
reduces the potential for leakage.
All blade edges are provided with a unique gasketing
design for low pressure differentials experienced on
economizer applications.
Flexible stainless steel side seals between the blade
ends and the damper frame provide UltraSeal with one of
the lowest leakage rates in the industry.

Heating and Cooling Coils


Daikins ARI certified coils are designed to maximize face area
and minimize face velocity, thereby reducing static pressure
losses. The Daikin HI-F fin design of RDS/RAH coils provides
a substantial improvement to fin efficiency. Design of the HI-F
fin produces a state of continuous turbulence that effectively
reduces boundary layer formation. As a result, heat transfer
efficiency sharply improves, making the HI-F surface an
industry leader.
In addition, coil performance is enhanced by the design of
staggered tubing. This arrangement exposes the tubes to more
moving air than the in-line design, yielding greater heat transfer.
The geometry of the staggered tube design also allows the rows
to be spaced closer together for a more compact coil.

Heating Coils
Hot Water Coils
Water heating coils are offered in two counterflow
arrangements to satisfy a variety of design needs. The onerow, half serpentine circuit allows increased water velocity
for low heat applications. For water coils operating under

Variable Air Volume

Figure 27: Variable frequency drive control

Daikin RoofPak variable air volume systems (VAV) employ the


concept of varying the air quantity to a space at a constant
temperature thereby balancing the heat gains or losses and
maintaining the desired room temperature. This true variable
volume system is commonly referred to as a squeeze-off or
pinch-off system. Unlike a bypass or dump system, supply
air is diverted from areas where it is not required to areas that
need cooling and, at system part load conditions, reduces the
total fan volume. This ability to reduce supply air quantities not
only provides substantial fan energy savings at partial load
conditions, but it also minimizes equipment sizing.
Variable volume systems offer the following advantages:
Lowers system first cost by using system diversity to
reduce equipment and duct sizes.
Lowers operating costs by reducing fan energy demands,
especially at part load conditions.
Lowers first cost by reducing space requirements for duct
trunks and mechanical equipment.

Airfoil Fans

Provides system flexibility to match changing occupancy


demands.

To further enhance VAV system performance, Daikin RoofPak


VAV systems use efficient airfoil fan selections.
Daikin airfoil fan selections feature:

Variable Frequency Drives


Variable frequency drives offer reliable operation over a
wide range of airflow, with advantages in sound and energy
performance.
Variable frequency drives provide the most efficient means of
variable volume control by taking advantage of the fan law
relation between fan speed (rpm) and fan brake horsepower
(bhp). Also, since airflow is reduced by changing fan speed,
the noise penalties often associated with mechanical control
devices, e.g. inlet vanes, are not introduced. The following
equation illustrates how fan bhp varies as the cube of the
change in fan speed:

hp2 = hp1

density2
density1

)( )
rpm2
rpm1

In an ideal system, at 50% fan speed, brake horsepower would


be reduced to 12.5% of that at full speed.
Variable frequency control varies the speed of the fan by
adjusting the frequency and voltage to the motor. Keeping a
constant volts/frequency ratio (constant magnetic flux) to the
motor allows the motor to run at its peak efficiency over a wide
range of speeds and resulting fan airflow volumes. illustrates
on a fan curve the effect of varying air volume with a variable
frequency drive.

Higher operating efficiencies than with commonly used,


forward curved fans, reducing system energy demands
and electrical requirements.
A non-overloading brake horsepower curve.
A single wheel design, eliminating potential problems with
fan paralleling at light loads.

MicroTech III VAV Fan Tracking Control


A key element in successful VAV application is the ability
to track supply and return air fan volumes so that proper
building static pressure is maintained. Daikin, a pioneer
in the development of rooftop VAV systems, developed its
exclusive VaneTrol fan tracking control logic to solve this issue.
Incorporating over 35 years of rooftop VAV system experience,
the latest generation MicroTech III controls with VaneTrol logic
provide advanced and accurate duct static pressure control
plus supply and return fan tracking control that effectively and
efficiently manages building static pressure.
The MicroTech III controller provides complete control of your
variable frequency drive applications.

Static Pressure Sensing Locations


In placing a duct static pressure sensor, locate a pressure tap
near the end of the main duct trunk. Adjust the static pressure
control so that at minimum airflow all the terminals receive
the minimum static pressure required plus any downstream
resistance. Locate a pressure tap in the ductwork free from
turbulent effect, at least ten duct diameters downstream and
several duct diameters upstream from any major interference
including branch takeoffs. Do not sense the static in a branch
duct. On installations having multiple duct trunks, multiple
floors, or widely varying zones (e.g. east/west), use optional
second sensor.

Benefits for Easy Integration on page 22.
3. All constant air volume-zone temperature control (CAVZTC) unit controllers include an input that can be used
to remotely adjust the zone cooling and heating set
points. To use this feature, wire the optional zone sensor
package with set point adjustment to the controller. The
remote set point adjustment feature can be enabled or
disabled from the keypad at any time. When enabled,
remote set point adjustment is available even if the return
temperature is selected to be the Control Temperature.

Auto/Manual Operation Selection


Automatic or manual operation can be controlled either
remotely or at the keypad.
All controllers include three inputs that can be used to enable
or disable cooling, heating, and fan operation from remote
switches. With the heat enable and cool enable terminals,
the operator can enable cooling, heating, or both as desired.
Using the system off terminals, the operator can disable the
fans, and thus the entire unit.
From the keypad, there are a variety of occupancy and auto/
manual control mode selections available to the operator:
Occupancy modes
Auto
Occupied
Unoccupied
Bypass (tenant override)
Control modes
Off manual
Auto
Heat/cool
Cool only
Heat only
Fan only

Economizer Changeover Selection


On units equipped with an economizer, there are three
methods of determining whether the outdoor air is suitable
for free cooling: two methods sense enthalpy (dry bulb
temperature and humidity) and one senses outdoor air dry bulb
temperature.
The two enthalpy changeover methods use external, factory
installed controls. One compares the outdoor ambient enthalpy
to a set point; the other is a solid state device that compares
the outdoor ambient enthalpy to the return air enthalpy. This
comparative enthalpy control can improve total economizer
performance.
All unit controls include an internal dry bulb changeover
strategy that can be selected at the keypad. When this method
is selected, the controller compares the outdoor air dry-bulb
temperature to a keypad programmable set point. The external
enthalpy control input is then ignored.

Cooling and Heating Lockout Control


All unit controls include separate keypad programmable
set points for locking out mechanical cooling and heating.
Mechanical cooling is locked out when the outdoor temperature
is below the cooling lockout set point; heating is locked out
when the outdoor temperature is above the heating lockout
set point. This feature can save energy cost by eliminating
unnecessary heating and cooling during warm-up or cool-down
periods or when the outdoor air temperature is mild.

Night Setback and Setup Control


When one of the zone temperature sensors is connected to the
unit controller, night setback heating and night setup cooling
control are available. Separate, keypad programmable night
heating and cooling set points are used to start the unit when
necessary. After the unit starts, night setback and setup control
is similar to normal occupied control except that the minimum
outside air damper position is set to zero. If the outside air is
suitable for free cooling, it is used during night setup operation.
Except for 100% outside air applications, night setback
control is available even if the unit is not equipped with any
heating equipment. When the space temperature falls to the
night setback set point, the fans simply start and run until the
temperature rises above the differential. This feature might be
useful for applications that use, for example, duct-mounted
reheat coils.

MicroTech III Controls


Morning Warm-up Control

Calibrate

If the Control Temperature (space or return) is below set point


when the unit enters the occupied mode, the morning warm-up
control function will keep the outside air dampers closed while
heat is supplied to satisfy set point. The outside air damper will
remain closed until either the space temperature rises to the
heating set point or the keypad adjustable morning warm-up
timer expires (default is 90 minutes). The morning warm-up
timer supplies the minimum required amount of outdoor air
after a certain time regardless of the space temperature.

When initiated at the keypad by an operator, the Calibrate


function automatically calibrates all actuator position feedback
inputs and all pressure transducer inputs. It does this by
shutting the unit down and then driving all actuators to the
full closed and full open positions. The controller records the
input voltage values that correspond to these positions. The
pressure transducer input voltages, which are assumed for
0.00-in. W.C., are also recorded. When Calibrate is finished,
enter an operator command at the keypad to start the unit.

Morning warm-up control is automatically included on all


except 100% outside air units. It is available even if the unit is
not equipped with any heating equipment, for applications that
utilize, for example, duct-mounted reheat coils.

Field Output Signals

Proportional Integral (PI) Control


The Proportional Integral (PI) control algorithm controls
modulating actuators to maintain a measured variable
(temperature or pressure) at or near its set point. For example, it
controls economizer dampers to maintain the discharge cooling
set point and it controls the supply fan variable frequency drives
to maintain the duct static pressure set point. The integral
control feature effectively eliminates proportional droop (load
dependent offset) resulting in the tightest possible control.
For each PI loop, four keypad adjustable parameters allow the
control loop to be properly tuned for any application:
Period
Dead band
Proportional band
Integral time
Appropriate default values for these parameters are loaded
into each controller. These default values will provide proper
control for most applications; therefore, field tuning is usually
not required and thus start-up time is reduced.

Change Algorithm
The PI function is also used to adjust set points instead of
controlling variable speed drives or actuators directly. For
example, in zone control applications, the PI loop automatically
changes the discharge temperature set point (cooling or
heating) as the Control Temperature deviates from the zone set
point. Another PI loop then controls the economizer actuator or
heating valve actuator using the current discharge temperature
set point. Unlike a typical master-submaster reset strategy,
this cascade control continuously adjusts the discharge set
point, even if the Control Temperatures deviation from set point
remains constant. This means that the units cooling or heating
output is set according to the actual load, not just the current
zone temperature. The tightest possible zone temperature
control results because proportional droop (load dependent
offset) is eliminated.

www.DaikinApplied.com 25

All MicroTech III RoofPak controls include two solid-state relay


outputs that are available for field connection to any suitable
device: the remote alarm output and the occupied output. These
two outputs are used to signal field equipment of unit status.

Remote Alarm Output:


The remote alarm output can be used to operate a 24 volt relay
to provide a remote alarm signal to a light, audible alarm, or
other device when an alarm condition exists at the unit.

Fan Operation Output:


The fan operation output is used to operate a 24 volt relay
to control field equipment that depends on fan operation; for
instance, to open field installed isolation dampers or VAV
boxes. To allow actuators enough time to stroke, the fan
operation output is energized three minutes before the fans
start. It then remains energized until thirty seconds after the
unit airflow switch senses no airflow. The fan operation output
is on whenever the unit airflow switch senses airflow.

Standard Control Options


Applied rooftop systems are available for most any constant
or variable air volume application. MicroTech III controls offer
three basic control configurations: variable air volume with
discharge temperature control (VAV-DTC), constant air volume
with zone temperature control (CAV-ZTC), and constant air
volume with discharge temperature control (CAV-DTC), that
use sophisticated state change control logic to provide stable,
reliable and efficient control. When combined with MicroTech
IIIs many available control capabilities, both factory installed
and keypad programmable, these three basic configurations
can be customized to meet the requirements of the most
demanding applications.

CAT 218-3 ROOFPAK APPLIED AIR HANDLERS

MicroTech III Controls


Variable Air Volume with Discharge
Temperature Control (VAV)
All VAV units provide true discharge temperature control in
addition to duct static pressure control. Cooling only, cooling
with single-stage morning warm-up heat, and cooling with
modulating heat configurations are available. On units with
a return fan, two building static pressure control options are
available: VaneTrol logic tracking or direct building pressure
control. Because proper ventilation rates have been identified
as critical to maintaining good indoor air quality, all RoofPak
VAV controllers include software algorithms designed to
maintain minimum outside air volume at all times when the unit
is in the Occupied mode.

Constant Air Volume with Zone Temperature


Control (CAV-ZTC)
CAV-ZTC units are available in either cooling only or
cooling with modulating heat configurations. Either of these
configurations is available for 100% recirculated, mixed, or
100% outdoor air applications. On units that have a return fan,
a direct building static pressure control option is also available.

Constant Air Volume with Discharge


Temperature Control (CAV-DTC)

Control Temperature
The Control Temperature makes the heat/cool changeover
decision. It determines whether cooling or heating is enabled;
the discharge temperature then determines whether cooling or
heating is actually supplied. At the keypad, the operator can
choose the source of the Control Temperature from among the
following selections.
Space temperature sensor
Return temperature sensor
Outside air temperature sensor (modulating heat only)
Network communication
The operator enters separate cool and heat enable set points
and deadbands that the Control Temperature is compared with
(see Figure 30). When the Control Temperature is greater than
or equal to the cooling set point plus DB/2, cooling is enabled.
When the Control Temperature is less than or equal to the heat
set point minus DB/2, heating is enabled. If desired, these set
points and differentials can be set so that there is a dead band
in which both cooling and heating are disabled. The controllers
software prevents simultaneous cooling and heating.
Figure 30: Control Temperature Logic

CAV-DTC units are available in cooling only, cooling with


single-stage morning warm-up heat, or cooling with
modulating heat configurations. This unit configuration can be
used for applications that have zone controlled terminal reheat
coils or for constant volume, 100% outdoor air applications.
The discharge temperature control strategies used with the
hybrid CAV-DTC unit are identical to those used with the
VAVDTC unit. On units that have a return fan, a direct building
static pressure control option is available (constant supply air
volume applications only).

Discharge Temperature Control


MicroTech III VAV-DTC and CAV-DTC controls provide
sophisticated and flexible discharge air temperature
control that is only possible with DDC systems. Separate
discharge air temperature set points are used for cooling and
modulating heating control. At the keypad, the operator can
either enter the desired set points or select separate reset
methods and parameters for each set point (see Supply Air
Reset on page 27).

CAT 218-3 ROOFPAK APPLIED AIR HANDLERS 26 www.DaikinApplied.com

MicroTech III Controls


Supply Air Reset

Project Ahead Algorithm

By automatically varying the discharge air temperature to suit


a buildings cooling or heating needs, supply air temperature
reset can increase the energy efficiency of VAV and CAV-DTC
systems. MicroTech III controllers offer a variety of different reset
strategies that can be selected at the keypad. Because they
are keypad programmable, reset strategies can be changed or
eliminated as desired. Separate strategies can be selected for
both cooling and modulating heat. If reset is not desired, a fixed
discharge cooling or heating set point can be entered.

Because the inherent lag effect in zone temperature control


applications can cause overshoot during warm-up or cooldown
periods, MicroTech III features a Project Ahead control
algorithm. Project Ahead calculates the rate at which the
Control Temperature is changing and reduces the units cooling
or heating output as the zone temperature nears its set point,
essentially eliminating overshoot.

The following reset methods are available:

On all VAV-DTC units, duct static pressure control is


maintained by the PI algorithm, which provides precise
control of the supply fan variable speed drive. The keypad
programmable set point can be set between 0.20-in. W.C. and
4.00-in. W.C.

Space temperature
Return temperature
Outdoor air temperature
Supply airflow (VAV, cooling set point only)
External 010 VDC or 020 mA signal
Network communication
For all temperature reset methods, the minimum and maximum
cooling and heating set points are keypad programmable along
with the corresponding minimum and maximum space, return
or outdoor air temperature parameters. For the supply airflow
method, the discharge set point will be reset as the supply fan
modulates between 30% adjustable and 100% adjustable. For
the external method, the discharge set point will be reset as
the voltage or current signal varies over its entire range. For
units in a BAS network, the discharge set points are reset via
the communication signal.

Zone Temperature Control


MicroTech III CAV-ZTC controls provide the sophisticated and
flexible zone temperature control that is only possible with
DDC systems. Zone temperature sensors are available with
or without a remote set point adjustment. With the remote
adjustment model, the space set point can be set at the
keypad or at the zone sensor package. Even if a zone sensor
is connected, remote set point adjustment can be enabled or
disabled as desired at the keypad.

Control Temperature
The Control Temperature is the representative zone
temperature. When compared with the zone set points, the
Control Temperature determines whether the unit supplies
heating, cooling, or neither. It also determines the amount of
cooling or heating required to satisfy the load. Its source can
be selected at the keypad from among the following selections:
Zone temperature sensor
Return temperature sensor

Duct Static Pressure Control

On larger buildings with multiple floors, multiple trunk runs


or large shifts in load due to solar effects (east/west building
orientation), an optional second duct static sensor is offered.
The MicroTech III controller automatically selects and uses
the lower of the two sensed pressures to control fan volume to
provide adequate static pressure to the most demanding space
at all times.

Building Static Pressure Control


VaneTrol Fan Tracking Control (does not
apply to exhaust fans)
VaneTrol fan tracking control logic offers close and reliable
building static pressure control for VAV units equipped with a
return air fan. With the VaneTrol logic method, the return fans
variable speed drive assembly tracks the supply fan volume as
the supply fan maintains the required duct static pressure using
the additional parameter of maintaining a field programmable
offset between supply fan and return fan volume. The result is
that building pressure is maintained, regardless of the building
cooling load, because the proper relationship between supply
and return fan volume is maintained. Because the return fan/
supply fan tracking relationship is established once during
controlled test-and-balance conditions, ongoing building
pressure control is not affected by a fluctuating ambient
pressure reference signal or the temporary effects of opening
and closing doors on a pressure sensor in the lobby.
VaneTrol control logic uses four keypad programmable
parameters to maintain the required relationship between
return fan and supply fan volumes. These are the supply and
corresponding return fan volumes as measured by variable
speed drive position, at both maximum and minimum airflow
conditions.

Because it is the representative zone temperature, the


Control Temperature is the primary input to the MicroTech III
zone temperature control algorithms. Control Temperature
parameters are described below. The controllers software will
prevent cooling and heating from being inadvertently enabled
at the same time.

Table 3 shows an example of how supply and return air fan
modulation must vary to maintain the correct balance of supply
and return air volumes based on the buildings parameters
and therefore maintain building pressure. Determining the
buildings correct VaneTrol parameters is easy with MicroTech
IIIs Balance feature. With Balance, start-up time is reduced
because final adjustments are made at the keypad.

Direct Space Pressure Control (for return or


exhaust fans)
Any constant or variable air volume unit equipped with a
variable volume return or exhaust fan can be provided with
direct building static pressure control capability. With the direct
method, building static pressure is measured and processed
by the PI algorithm. This algorithm provides precise control of
the return fan variable speed drive or inlet vanes to maintain
the space pressure set point. The range of the keypad
programmable set point is between minus 0.25-in. W.C. and
0.25-in. W.C.
This type of control can be used for either whole building or lab
pressurization (positive or negative) applications, or exhaust
fan control where VaneTrol control logic does not apply.

Minimum Ventilation Air Volume Control


Consistently maintaining the minimum outdoor air requirements
of ASHRAE Standard 62 has been a long standing control
challenge for VAV systems. As supply air fan volumes were
reduced, the volume of air introduced through a fixed position,
minimum outdoor air damper was also reduced, compromising
indoor air quality. To meet this challenge, MicroTech III controls
feature four user-selected control methods for maintaining
outdoor air volume.
The MicroTech III controller can accept a signal from a
DesignFlow Precision Ventilation Air Control System,
which is continuously measuring outdoor air volume,
and adjust outdoor air damper position to maintain the
minimum volume set point.
MicroTech III controls have a keypad selected control
function that automatically adjusts outdoor air damper
position in response to changes in supply air fan volume.
Regardless of supply air volume, this strategy maintains
a nearly constant outdoor air volume at all times.The
MicroTech III controller can accept an external 010 VDC
signal from a CO2 sensor or other control device and
adjust outdoor air damper position.
If desired, a fixed minimum damper position can be
keypad programmed. This selection may be acceptable
when ventilation requirements are met through other
sources.
During cold ambient conditions where outdoor/return mixed air
conditions can become too low, MicroTech III controls maintain
the cooling discharge temperature set point by controlling
the unit heating system. For applications where ambient
temperatures and minimum outdoor air requirements can
generate this condition, order the RoofPak unit with modulating
heating equipment, such as the SuperMod gas burner.
Table 4 illustrates the effect of minimum ventilation control and
cold ambient conditions on unit discharge air temperature and
how it dictates the need for mixed air tempering capability at
the light load/low ambient conditions. It assumes a VAV unit
with a 20% outdoor air requirement at design conditions and a
40% minimum airflow requirement.

Application Considerations

The following section contains basic application and installation


guidelines that must be considered as part of the detailed
analysis of any specific project.

General
Units are intended for use in normal heating, ventilating and
air conditioning applications. Consult your local Daikin Applied
sales representative for applications involving operation at
high ambient temperatures, high altitudes, non-cataloged
voltages and for applications requiring modified or special
control sequences. Consult your local Daikin Applied sales
representative for job specific unit selections that fall outside
of the range of the catalog tables, such as 100% outside air
applications.
For proper operation, units should be rigged in accordance with
instructions stated in IM 485. Fire dampers, if required, must
be installed in the ductwork according to local or state codes.
No space is allowed for these dampers in the unit. Follow
factory check, test and start procedures explicitly to achieve
satisfactory start-up and operation (see IM 485).

Application Considerations

Curb Installation
The roof curb is field assembled and must be installed level
(within 1/16 in per foot side to side). A sub-base has to be
constructed by the contractor in applications involving pitched
roofs. Gaskets are furnished and must be installed between the
unit and curb. For proper installation, follow NRCA guidelines.
Typical curb installation is illustrated in Section Options and
LocationsRDS 708B on page 79. In applications requiring
post and rail installation, an I-beam securely mounted on
multiple posts should support the unit on each side.
Applications in geographic areas that are subjected to seismic
or hurricane conditions must meet code requirements for
fastening the unit to the curb and the curb to the building
structure.

Unit Location

When curbs are installed on a built-up roof with metal decking,


provide an inverted 6-in channel on both sides of the unit.
Install acoustical material over the decking, inside the roof
curb. Only the supply and return air ducts should penetrate the
acoustical material and decking. Apply appropriate acoustical
and vibration design practices during the early stages of design
to provide noise compatibility with the intended use of the
space. Consult your Daikin sales representative for unit sound
power data.

The structural engineer must verify that the roof has adequate
strength and ability to minimize deflection. Take extreme
caution when using a wooden roof structure.

Acoustical Considerations

Locate the unit fresh air intakes away from building flue stacks
or exhaust ventilators to reduce possible reintroduction of
contaminated air to the system. Unit condenser coils should be
located to avoid contact with any heated exhaust air.

Good acoustical design is a critical part of any installation and


should start at the earliest stages in the design process. Each
of the four common sound paths for rooftop equipment must be
addressed. These are:

Allow sufficient space around the unit for maintenance/service


clearance as well as to allow for full outside air intake and
removal of exhaust air. Refer to Recommended Clearances on
page 96 for recommended clearances. Consult your Daikin
Applied sales representative if available clearances do not
meet minimum recommendations. Where code considerations,
such as the NEC, require extended clearances, they take
precedence.

Radiated sound through the bottom of the unit and into


the space

Split Units
Units may sometimes have to be split into multiple pieces to
accommodate shipping limitations or jobsite lifting limitations.
Units exceeding 52 feet in length may need to be split for
shipping purposes. Units exceeding the rating of an available
crane or helicopter may also need to be split for rigging
purposes. Unit can be split between the supply fan and heat
section. Contact your local Daikin sales representative for more
details.

Structure-borne vibration from the unit to the building


Airborne sound through the supply air duct
Airborne sound through the return air duct
Locating rooftop equipment away from sound sensitive areas
is critical and the most cost-effective means of avoiding sound
problems. If possible, always locate rooftop equipment be
over less sensitive areas such as corridors, toilet facilities or
auxiliary spaces and away from office areas, conference rooms
and classrooms.

Not available on size 708.


www.DaikinApplied.com 29

CAT 218-3 ROOFPAK APPLIED AIR HANDLERS

Application Considerations
Some basic guidelines for good acoustical performance are:
Always provide proper structural support under all areas
of the unit.
Always locate the units center of gravity close to a main
support to minimize roof deflection. Maintaining a roof
deflection under 1/3 in minimizes vibration-induced noise.
Use a concrete deck or pad when a unit has to be located
over an occupied space where good acoustics are
essential.
Only the supply and return air ducts should penetrate the
acoustical material and decking within the curb perimeter;
seal the openings once the duct is installed.
Dont overlook the return air path. Never leave a clear
line of sight into a return or exhaust fan; always include
some duct work (acoustically lined tee) at the return inlet.

Ductwork
A well-designed duct system is required to allow the rooftop
equipment to provide rated performance and to minimize
system resistance and sound generation. Duct connections to
and from units should allow straight, smooth airflow transitions.
Avoid any abrupt change in duct size and sharp turns in the
fan discharge. Avoid turns opposed to wheel rotation since
they generate air turbulence and result in unwanted sound.
If 90 turns are necessary, use turning vanes. Refer to the
2003 ASHRAE Applications Handbook, Chapter 47 for specific
guidelines relevant to rooftop equipment.
Figure 31: Optimal fan selection line

Minimize system static pressure losses to reduce fan


sound generation.
Select the appropriate fan for the application. Select
fans as close as possible to their peak static efficiency.
Peak static efficiency is identified by the first system
curve to the right of the shaded Do not select region, as
illustrated in Figure 31.
Design duct systems to minimize turbulence.
Account for low frequency duct breakout in system
design. Route the first 20 ft of rectangular duct over
non-sensitive areas and avoid large duct aspect ratios.
Consider round or oval duct to reduce breakout.
When an added measure of airborne fan sound control
is required, sound attenuators can be supplied, factory
installed in a unit discharge air section, to treat the supply
fan. On the return side, additional attenuation can often
be achieved by routing the return duct within the curb
area beneath the unit.
There are many sound sources in rooftop systems. Fans, duct
take-offs, etc. all generate sound. For guidelines on reducing
sound generation in the duct system, refer to the 2003
ASHRAE Applications Handbook, Chapter 47.
Contact your local Daikin sales representative for equipment
supply, return and radiated sound power data specific to your
application.

Return Duct
The return path is the most often overlooked. A section of
return duct is required to avoid a line of sight to the return air
opening and to provide attenuation of return air sound. Install
an insulated tee with a maximum duct velocity of 1000 to 1200
feet per minute. Extend the duct 15 feet to provide adequate
attenuation.

Supply Duct
Insulate supply air ductwork for at least the first 20 feet from
the unit. Consider using round or oval ductwork since it
significantly reduces low frequency breakout noise near the
equipment. If rectangular duct is used, keep the aspect ratio of
the duct as low as possible. The large flat surfaces associated
with high aspect ratios increase low frequency breakout to
the space and can generate noise, such as oil canning. The
maximum recommended supply duct velocity is 1800 to 2000
feet per minute.

CAT 218-3 ROOFPAK APPLIED AIR HANDLERS 30 www.DaikinApplied.com

Application Considerations

Duct High Limit


All Daikin RoofPak systems with VAV control include an
adjustable duct high limit switch as a standard feature. This
is of particular importance when fast acting, normally closed
boxes are used. The switch is field adjustable and must be set
to meet the specific rating of the system ductwork.

Vibration Isolation
Make duct attachments to the unit with a flexible connection.

Figure 32 illustrates why supply fan only units can have


problems, especially as return ESP increases.
No exhaust occurs from the rooftop because the
economizer section must be at a negative pressure.
The air balancer must adjust the outdoor air damper to
generate large pressure drops at minimum ventilation
settings (about 0.9" in Figure 32).
Figure 32: Supply air fan only system static pressures with
1" return duct ESP

Economizer, Return Fan, and Exhaust


Fan Application
(Exhaust fan not available on size 708)
Rooftop economizer applications usually require return or
exhaust fans to properly control building pressure and maintain
minimum ventilation. Daikin offers both exhaust and return fan
capability. They usually are not interchangeable for a given
design. In general:
Use return air fans (RAF) on ducted return systems
(return ESP exceeds 0.4" to 0.5").
Properly selected propeller exhaust air fans (EAF) can
operate successfully and save energy on open return
systems (return ESP is less than 0.4" to 0.5").
Supply air fan (SAF) selection depends on whether a
return or exhaust fan is used.
RAF system-SAF handles only the supply ESP at
design.

Figure 33 illustrates how adding a return fan corrects these


problems. The return fan is responsible for return system ESP
and maintains a slightly positive pressure in the economizer
section (about +0.1" in Figure 33) to allow for exhaust air
control and a more suitable outside air intake pressure.
Figure 33: RAF system allows proper exhaust and outdoor
air control

EAF system-SAF handles both the supply and return


ESP at design (EAF is off).

www.DaikinApplied.com 31

CAT 218-3 ROOFPAK APPLIED AIR HANDLERS

Application Considerations
Exhaust fans are very different than return fans and cannot
maintain proper building pressure and ventilation control as
return ESP increases.
The EAF is normally off during non-economizer operation.
During these minimum outdoor air conditions, the system
essentially acts like a supply fan only system.
When the exhaust fan cycles off, there is no device
available to maintain a positive pressure for relief, the
mixed air plenum pressure dramatically changes, and
minimum ventilation air control and space pressure are
lost.
An exhaust fans performance weaknesses diminish as return
ESP decreases. Properly selected and controlled propeller
exhaust fans can successfully operate and save energy at
reduced return ESP designs.
At system operating conditions where a single fan can
be used successfully, it generally is more efficient than
operating series fans under the same total load. When
the exhaust fan turns off, the supply fan handles both the
supply and return duct loads more efficiently.
At the relatively high cfm, low static pressure conditions of
exhaust/return application, exhaust fans can be selected
closer to their peak design efficiency than can full return
fans. This allows them to run more efficiently throughout
their operating range.
Therefore, when return duct losses dont dictate using a return
air fan, exhaust fans are an efficient alternative.

Smoke and Fire Protection


Daikin optionally offers factory-installed outdoor air, return
air, and exhaust air dampers as well as smoke detectors in
the supply and return air opening, complete with wiring and
control. These components often are used in the buildings
smoke, fume, and fire protection systems. However, due to
the wide variation in building design and ambient operating
conditions into which our units are applied, we do not represent
or warrant that our products are fit and sufficient for smoke,
fume, and fire control purposes. The owner and a fully qualified
building designer are responsible for meeting all local and
NFPA building code requirements with respect to smoke,
fume, and fire control. Daikin offers the flexibility to offer these
various components and control sequences, as directed by the
customer, to help meet code requirements.

Filters
General
Routinely replace filters to minimize filter loading. As filters get
dirty, the filter pressure drop increases, causing a decrease in
airflow. Depending on fan type, forward curved or airfoil, this
airflow change can be significant. The effect of filter loading is
the most critical when using 65% and 95% efficient filters.
When making a fan selection, include a pressure drop
component in the system total static pressure for filters since
they get dirty. Generally, select a value midway between clean
and dirty filter ratings. If a minimum airflow is critical, the fan
selection should be made using the higher, dirty filter pressure
drop value. Following these recommendations should limit
airflow fluctuation as the filters load.

Final Filters
The application of final filters (filters downstream of the fan)
places special requirements on unit selection. When final filters
are employed, cooling coils must be located in the drawthrough position so that the filters will not be in a saturated air
stream. Also, final filters applications for a unit with gas heat
requires the filters to be rated for 500F. Instruct maintenance
personnel to use properly rated replacement filters.

Variable Air Volume Application


RoofPak units are available with variable speed drives to
provide variable air volume (VAV) control. Refer to Variable Air
Volume on page 21 for further information on VAV systems.
In placing a duct static pressure sensor, locate a pressure tap
near the end of the main duct trunk. Adjust the static pressure
set point so that at minimum airflow all of the terminals receive
the minimum static pressure required plus any downstream
resistance. Locate the static pressure sensor tap in the
ductwork in an area free from turbulence effects and at least
ten duct diameters downstream and several duct diameters
upstream from any major interference, including branch
takeoffs. A second sensor is available and should be used
on installations having multiple duct trunks, multiple floors, or
significantly varying zones (e.g., east/west). The MicroTech
III controller will control the variable speed drive to satisfy the
supply duct requiring the most static pressure.

Multiple Air Handler Control


For applications in which multiple units are connected in a
common duct system, it is important to control all units from
a common duct static pressure sensor and to control all
operating units in unison. Centralized duct static pressure
control can be accomplished through communication with
the BAS network or the Daikin MicroTech Integrated Control
System (see brochure ASP 31-260).

Application Considerations

Fan Operating Range


The acceptable system operating range of the Daikin rooftop is
determined by all of the following characteristics. Each of these
limiting factors must be considered for proper performance and
component design life.
Unstable fan operation
Maximum fan rpm
Maximum cabinet static pressure
Maximum face velocity (cooling coil is most important)
Minimum furnace or electric heater velocity
Turndown capability on VAV applications
Figure 34 illustrates these limiting factors with exception of the
last two items. The shaded area indicates the design operating
range of the fan. For optimal efficiency, select fans as close to
the fans peak static efficiency line as possible. This line is the
first system curve to the right of the unstable line illustrated.
Figure 34: Fan selection boundary

Indoor Fan and Motor Heat, Blowthrough vs. Draw-through Cooling


Daikin offers blow-through and draw-through cooling coils so
the unit can be best selected to match job requirements. (Blowthrough coils not available on size 708.)

Indoor fan and motor heat.


The indoor fan and motor electrical consumption is a
sensible cooling load approximately equal to 2.8 MBh
per BHP (depending slightly on motor efficiency). This
occurs at the fan. See Figure 35 and Figure 36. The fan
and motor preheat the mixed air before it enters a blowthrough cooling coil. The fan and motor reheat the air
leaving a draw-through cooling coil. Refer also to 2001
ASHRAE Fundamentals Handbook, Chapter 31.
Fan and motor temperature rise is equal to Btuh/(1.08
cfm) and is typically about 3F.
Due to fan and motor heat placement (Figure 35), blowthrough coils provide a high sensible heat ratio while
draw-through coils provide more latent cooling per total
ton. Blow-through coils achieve a higher sensible heat
ratio because they operate with a higher coil approach
temperature and a lower entering relative humidity.
Conversely, draw-through coils cool air at a lower
approach temperature and a higher relative humidity,
increasing latent cooling.
Blow-through coils effectively provide colder supply air
temperatures per ton of air conditioning and greater
sensible heat ratio. This potentially allows a significant
reduction in design cfm for buildings with high sensible
heat ratios and a resulting reduction in building energy
use.
Figure 35: Blow-through vs. draw-through concept

Fan Isolation
All Daikin RoofPak systems feature internally isolated fans.
All supply and return air fans are statically and dynamically
balanced in the factory and mounted on rubber-in-shear
(RIS) or 2-in deflection spring isolators. Flexible isolation is
provided as standard between the fan outlet and the discharge
bulkhead to prevent hard contact and vibration transmission.
Spring isolated fan assemblies also are available with seismic
restraints.
The choice of 2-in deflection spring isolation or RIS isolation
depends on an analysis of the roof structure and whether or
not an isolation curb is being provided. When using an isolation
curb, consult with the curb manufacturer before selecting
spring isolation in the rooftop unit. Doubling or stacking spring
isolation can generate a resonant vibration.

Application Considerations
Figure 36: Blow-through vs. draw-through performance

Altitude Adjustments
Fan curve performance is based on 70F air temperature
and sea level elevation. Selections at any other conditions
require the following adjustment for air densities listed in Table
6. Higher elevations generally require more rpm to provide a
given static pressure but less bhp due to the decrease in air
density.
1. Assume 32,000 cfm is required at 3.11" TSP. The
elevation is 5000 ft and 70F average air temperature is
selected. A 40" DWDI airfoil fan is selected.
2. The density adjustment factor for 5000 ft and 70F is 0.83.

Draw-through (available on all units)


In a draw-through unit, the fan is located after the cooling
coil. In this arrangement, fan heat is applied as reheat to the
cold, conditioned air coming off of the coil. This arrangement
has a lower sensible heat ratio and higher dehumidification
capability than a blow-through coil arrangement. Draw-through
arrangements are well suited for 100% outside air applications
and applications needing more dehumidification. A drawthrough arrangement is mandatory for all applications requiring
final filters. The discharge temperature available to the supply
duct is always the sum of the coil leaving air temperature
plus the fan temperature rise. This must be considered when
selecting the supply air volume required to satisfy space
requirements.

3. TSP must be adjusted as follows: 3.11" / 0.83 = 3.75".


4. Locate 32,000 cfm and 3.75 on the fan curve. Rpm = 900
and bhp = 27.5. The required fan speed is 900 rpm.
5. The consumed fan power at design = 27.5 bph 0.83 =
22.8 bhp.

Blow-through (not available on size 708)


In a blow-through unit, the fan is located before the DX cooling
coil. In this arrangement, fan heat is applied as preheat
to the coil. Preheating the air lowers its relative humidity,
giving this arrangement a high sensible heat ratio. Blowthrough arrangements are well suited for comfort conditioning
applications where space heat gains are primarily sensible and
the primary latent load is from ventilation air. The discharge
temperature available to the supply duct is the coil leaving air
temperature.

Altitude (feet)

Furnace Performance
Gas heat performance data is based on standard 70F air
temperature and zero feet altitude (sea level). For altitudes of
2000 feet and higher, the gas burner may be derated 4% for
every 1000 feet of altitude. However, if the design ambient is
cold enough then the effect of colder temperatures and higher
altitudes may be offset.
Example:
A 1000 MBh furnace at an altitude of 3000 feet and 70F
ambient is derated (0.04 3 = 0.12). At 1000 MBh input (1000
0.12 MBh), the actual input is 1000 120 = 880 MBh at 3000
feet. If ambient is 10F then no derate is required.
NOTE: Above 6000 feet, consult factory

CAT 218-3 ROOFPAK APPLIED AIR HANDLERS 34 www.DaikinApplied.com

Application Considerations

System Operating Limits

Coil Freeze Protection

Daikin RoofPak systems are designed to operate over an


extensive operating range. However, for proper system
operation some limits do apply.

When applying roof-mounted equipment in areas that


experience subfreezing conditions, coil freeze protection
measures must be provided. Subfreezing temperatures can
adversely affect water and steam coils during controlled or
uncontrolled unit shutdowns and even during unit operation.
Daikin RoofPak economizer dampers are arranged to direct
the outside and return air streams in multiple mixing patterns,
minimizing air stratification. Even though this is one of the most
effective mixing arrangements available, there may not always
be a uniform unit temperature profile under all load and ambient
temperatures. Some temperature stratification will occur,
particularly at low ambient temperatures and the associated
reduced airflow inherent with VAV systems. When required,
static air mixers/blenders are available that can significantly
improve mixing and reduce stratification. This can result in
improved protection against freeze-up.

To help prevent moisture blow-off, design guidelines have been


established for cooling coil selection.
Based on laboratory testing, average coil face velocities should
not exceed the following limits:
650 ft/min for 8 and 10 fpi selections
600 ft/min for 12 fpi selections
For applications outside of these limits, consult your
Daikin Applied sales representative. Velocities exceeding
these limits not only present the potential for moisture
carry-over, but also high face velocities generate high air
pressure drops, resulting in poor fan energy performance.
In addition to maximum face velocity limitations, minimum
velocity guidelines are 200 ft/min When selecting a variable air
volume unit, it is necessary to design the system such that the
200 ft/min limit is maintained at light load conditions.

Glycol is strongly recommended as a positive means of freeze


protection for water coils. No control sequence can prevent
coil freezing in the event of a power failure or equipment
malfunction. During those periods, glycol is the only positive
means of freeze protection. When selecting water coils, specify
glycol to account for performance differences.

Figure 37: RAH 0 77C 40" DWDI airfoil

www.DaikinApplied.com 35

CAT 218-3 ROOFPAK APPLIED AIR HANDLERS

Application Considerations
An optional non-averaging freezestat equipment protection control
can be provided, located downstream of the heating coil. If a
potential freezing condition is sensed, a sequence is initiated by
the unit control system, closing outdoor air dampers, opening the
heating valve and de-energizing the fan. The freezestat setting
should be some increment higher than freezing to provide an
added margin of protection. The use of a freezestat control may
cause nuisance trips. It cannot prevent freeze-up in the event of
power failure or equipment malfunction.
Freeze protection control strategies must be designed to keep
unit cabinet temperatures from exceeding 150F during a unit
shutdown. Temperatures in excess of 150F may exceed the
design limits of motors, electrical components, gaskets, etc.
potentially leading to premature failure of components.

Piping and Condensate Drainage


Always follow good industry practice in the design of the water
piping system. Do not apply undue stress at the connection to
coil headers. In addition, support piping independently from the
coils with adequate piping flexibility for thermal expansion.
Provide all drain pans with a properly sized p-trap to allow free
drainage of coil condensate. Provide traps to prevent cabinet
static pressure from leaking air at the drain line in blowthrough coil applications. For draw-through coil applications,
a properly sized and installed trap is essential to allow for
proper condensate drainage. An improper trap could cause
condensate to build up in the drain pan and overflow into the
unit. For trap sizing, follow instruction given in IM 240 and IM
487. Run all traps and drain lines full size from the threaded
unit connection to the roof drain
Units providing steam heat must be installed level to provide
proper drainage and adequate steam pressure at the steam
valve and coil. Condensate must be properly trapped with
vacuum breakers installed on the coil (See Figure 38). For
steam piping recommendations, see Daikin Steam Coil Catalog
413.

Zone Sensor Placement


Placement of the zone temperature sensor is critical for
proper and economical operation of the heating and cooling
system. It is generally recommended that the space sensor
be located on an inside wall (3 to 5 feet from an outside wall)
in a space having a floor area of at least 400 square feet. Do
not locate the sensor below the outlet of a supply diffuser, in
the direct rays of the sun, on a wall adjacent to an unheated
or abnormally warm room (boiler or incinerator room), or near
any heat producing equipment. Where zone sensor placement
is a problem, all zone control systems, as standard, have the
capability to use a return air sensor for heating and cooling.

Unit Wiring
All units require three phase, 60 Hz, 208, 230, 460 or 575 volt
power or three phase, 50 Hz, 400 volt power. Units do not
operate satisfactorily at 10% of rated voltage, at the power
connections to the units. All units include branch circuit, short
circuit protection and are available with one or multiple power
blocks or non-fused disconnect switches. Each unit is provided
with a 115-volt convenience outlet circuit. Per the NEC, this
circuit must be fed independent of the main unit power supply.
All wiring must be installed in accordance with the National
Electric Code (NEC) and local codes.

Winter Shipment
Flat bed shipment in winter can expose units to harsh road
chemicals. Since equipment size and configuration precludes
covering during transit, wash units free of these chemicals as
soon as possible to help prevent corrosion.

Field-Installed Actuators
Install an actuator to meet the design torque requirement.
For vane actuators, this requirement is based on the effective
wheel diameter and design rpm of the fan. Use the following
equation and table to size actuators:

pneumatic actuators, allow 5 in-lb per square foot of damper
area.

Face and Bypass Damper Option


Face and bypass dampers are offered for coil capacity control
when control valves are not suitable. This option is especially
beneficial for heating applications requiring a large percent of
outside air. Face and bypass dampers also can provide some
amount of coil freeze protection. However, additional freeze
protection should be provided. Design air velocity through
bypass dampers should not exceed 2500 feet per minute.
Reference the Physical Data section for face and bypass areas
when determining airflow rates.

Areas of unit openings and dampers are tabulated in the


following table. To minimize pressure drop and help prevent
moisture intake, keep air velocity through the 100% outside
air hood to a maximum of 1000 feet per minute. Air velocity
through the 030% outside air hood or through the 0100%
economizer intake louvers/ hoods should not exceed 740 feet
per minute.
Discharge or return opening, VAV or isolation dampers
have the same face area as the opening (see dimensional
drawings).
Face and bypass damper face areas are shown in the Physical
Data on page 43.

CAT 218-3 ROOFPAK APPLIED AIR HANDLERS

Unit Selection

Achieving the optimal performance of a rooftop system requires


both accurate system design and proper equipment selection.
Factors that control the unit selection include applicable codes,
ventilation and air filtration requirements, heating and cooling
loads, acceptable temperature differentials, and installation
limitations. Daikin RoofPak units offer a wide selection of
component options providing the capability to meet diverse
application requirements.
The Daikin SelectTools software selection program allows your
local Daikin Applied sales representative to provide you with
fast, accurate and complete selection of Daikin RoofPak units.
You also can select your unit through reference to physical,
performance, dimensional, and unit weight data included in
this catalog. Due to the variety of cooling coil options available,
only a sample of cooling capacity data is presented in the
catalog.
To properly select unit equipment:
1. Select unit size and cooling coil
2. Select heating coils and equipment
3. Select fans and motors
Below are examples that illustrate the equations and catalog
references used in the unit selection process.

Example 1
A constant volume system with chilled water, gas heat,
economizer with return fan, and 65% efficient filtration is
required to meet the following criteria:

Supply air capacity = 26,000 cfm

Return air capacity = 20,800 cfm

Maximum face velocity = 600 fpm

Supply duct = 2.00-in wg

Return duct = 0.50-in wg

Altitude = Sea level
Summer design:

Ambient air temperature = 95F

Mixed air temperature = 80F/67F

Entering water temperature = 45F

Leaving water temperature = 55F

Total cooling load = 640,000 Btu/hr

Sensible cooling load = 510,000 Btu/hr
Winter design:

Entering air temperature = 60F

Total heating load = 700,000 Btu/hr

Air temperature rise = 20F
Electrical design: 460 V/60 Hz/3 phase

Unit Selection

Selecting Unit Size and


Arrangement
Unit size is based on coil face area and cooling capacity
requirements. Supply air capacity and maximum face
velocity constraints should serve as a guide for selecting coil
dimensions and cabinet size. Many model sizes are available
with a standard and a high airflow coil selection. This flexibility
prevents the need to increase cabinet size to accommodate
high airflow per ton applications. Face and bypass dampers (if
required) should be requested from the start to provide proper
unit sizing.
Based on the given data, the appropriate coil face area may be
determined as follows:
Minimum face area = supply air cfm/max. face velocity

= 26,000 cfm/600 fpm

= 43.3 square feet
NOTE: Unit data is based on standard air conditions of
70F at sea level. Refer to Table 5 on page 34
for temperature/ altitude conversion factors for
nonstandard conditions.
Face and bypass is not specified for this example. Therefore,
referring to Physical Data on page 43, the correct unit size
is 047 CL. This unit has a total coil face area of 45 square feet,
which is greater than the minimum required.
Determine system arrangement initially to clarify component
selection. Indoor Fan and Motor Heat, Blow-through vs.
Draw-through Cooling on page 33 discusses draw-through/
blow-through decision criteria. For the given example, a
blow-through arrangement should be provided to offer greater
sensible heat capacity.

Selecting Cooling Coils


Use the Daikin SelecTools for Contractor Coils selection
program to select unit coils. See Physical Data on page 43
to specify coils. See Cooling Capacity Data on page 48
for valve and piping pressure drops for chilled water coils. In
addition, see Application Considerations on page 29 for
information on face velocity guidelines, fan motor heat gain,
and other unit coil considerations. For the given blow-through
coil, add fan and motor heat gain to the entering air conditions.

CAT 218-3 ROOFPAK APPLIED AIR HANDLERS 38 www.DaikinApplied.com

Unit Selection

Selecting Heating Coils and Equipment


Electric heat and furnaces can be completely selected from the
Heating Capacity Data on page 51. To select hot water and
steam heating coil selections:
1. To identify coil fin height, fin length, available fins per
inch, and available row, see Physical Data on page 43
56.
2. Use the Coil SelectTools selection program to select the
coil with acceptable capacity and pressure drops.
3. Add optional hot water valve and piping pressure drop,
provided in the Heating Capacity Data on page 51, to
the hot water coil pressure drop obtained from the Coil
SelectTools program.

Gas Heat
When selecting a gas furnace, the system heating load,
minimum airflow and maximum temperature rise constraints
are needed. See Figure 43 on page 51 for furnace model
size selection. Enter the graph at 206,000 cfm and move
up vertically to the intersection of 700 MBh output. In this
example, the intersection of Minimum cfm and MBh Output
occurs between model lines. Therefore, the larger model size,
Model 790, should be selected for adequate heating. For all
heat exchangers, there exists a maximum temperature rise.
This limitation is determined by the heat exchanger surface
area to airflow ratio. See Table 21 on page 52 for verification
of the temperature rise capability of the furnace selected.
Also, use this table when specifying baffle position based on
minimum airflow design. Refer to Altitude Adjustments on page
34.
NOTE: In VAV applications, consider range of airflow
modulation when selecting furnace model and baffle
position. The maximum temperature rise cannot be
exceeded at either maximum or minimum airflows.

Hot Water Heat


Hot water design:

Entering water temperature = 180F


Leaving water temperature = 165F

The water temperature drop (t) is as follows:



t = Ent. water temp. Lvg. water temp.
= 180 165 = 15F
The Coil SelectTools program indicates that the Standard
Capacity hot water coil provides 748 MBh at design conditions
and provides sufficient capacity. Water pressure drop is 6.0
feet of water column.

www.DaikinApplied.com 39

At a water temperature drop of 15F, the water flow rate


required is 102 gpm. Enter the value at 102 gpm and select a
valve size that has a pressure drop greater than 11.5 feet of
water. The valve pressure drop should be as large as possible
to maintain proper valve modulation. The valve pressure drop
should be at least 50% of the total water pressure drop. If more
than one valve selection meets the requirement, make the
valve size decision based on first cost versus pumping head.
The total water pressure drop of the unit water coil is the sum
of the coil, valve, and valve piping. Valve and valve piping
pressure drops are illustrated in Figure 39 and Figure 40 on
page 48. For the given example, the total water pressure
drop is as follows:
Unit water coil pressure drops:
Standard capacity coil, 045C to 75C = 6.0 ft of water

1-1/2-in valve = 22.0 ft of water

1-1/2-in valve piping = 11.5 ft of water

Total water pressure drop = 39.5 ft wc of water
The pressure drop of the 1-1/2-in valve is 56% of the total
pressure drop and is acceptable.
If a glycol solution is used in the water coil, use the Daikin
SelectTools selection program for accurate coil and valve
sizing or contact your Daikin Applied sales representative.

Steam Heat
Steam design:

Steam supply pressure = 10 psig

With an 80% pressure drop across the valve, determine the


steam coil pressure as follows:

Steam coil pressure = 10 (10 0.80) = 2 psig

The Coil SelectTools program indicates that the Standard


Capacity steam coil provides 823 MBh at design conditions
and provides sufficient capacity. This heating capacity meets
design; therefore, the standard face area steam coil for the unit
is acceptable.
Valve size can be determined from the condensation rate of
steam for a given coil pressure. Use Table 9 and Table 10
below to select manual steam valve selection for systems
with atmospheric return mains and supply main pressure not
exceeding 25 psig at stated conditions. For the given example,
find the appropriate valve size as follows:

Condensation Rate = Capacity/latent heat of steam
= 823,000 / 966.1
= 852 lb/hr

CAT 218-3 ROOFPAK APPLIED AIR HANDLERS

Unit Selection
Enter Table 8, at 10 psig and 852 lb/hr. The correct valve size
is 1-1/2 in For other operating conditions, use the Selection
program for accurate selection or contact your Daikin Applied
sales representative.
Steam traps are field furnished and mounted. Refer to

Selecting Fans and Motors


Fan and motor selections are based on total static pressure
drop and design airflow. Total static pressure includes internal
air pressure drops of unit components and external air
pressure drops in supply and return ducts.

Return Fan and Motor


Select an economizer with a return fan for the given system.
A return (or exhaust fan) system is often necessary for
maintaining proper pressure in a building. See Application
Considerations on page 29 for more information on the
economizer and return fan application. Use the external air
pressure drop of the return duct along with the design return
airflow to select a return fan. Based on Figure 79 on page
78, the return fan size is 44 inches and the bhp = 4.6. The
required fan motor size is 5.0 hp.

Supply Fan and Motor


Since this system includes a return fan, the return duct static
pressure drop is not added to the supply fan pressure drop.
Therefore, total static pressure for the supply fan in the
example is:
Internal pressure drops:




0100% economizer, with RAF = 0.54-in wg


65% cartridge filter, med. flow = 0.63-in wg
Gas furnace = 0.50-in wg
Chilled water coil (5WH 3-row, 8 fpi) = 0.35-in wg
Total internal pressure drop = 2.02-in wg

External pressure drops:



Supply duct = 2.00-in wg


Total external pressure drop = 2.00-in wg

Total static pressure = internal drops + external drops



= 2.02 + 2.00

= 4.02 in wg
NOTE: When gas or electric heat is provided, do not add
the cooling coil diffuser pressure drop. In VAV
applications with gas heat, consult your Daikin
Applied sales representative for design pressure drop
determinations.

In the Component Pressure Drops on page 57 section, see


Table 29 on page 57 and Table 32 on page 59 for internal
pressure drops of unit components. When selecting unit fans
and motors, use the fan curves provided in Fan Performance
on page 62, SWSI Supply Fans on page 71, Propeller
Exhaust Fans on page 73, and Return Fans on page 75.
To optimize fan performance, select the fan size having design
airflow and static pressure intersecting as close to the first
system curve as possible after the shaded Do Not Select
region. See Application Considerations on page 29.
Select the motor size as close below the horsepower curve
as possible to prevent motor oversizing. An oversized motor
(large horsepower to load ratio) can greatly increase electric
consumption due to the reduction in motor performance.

CAT 218-3 ROOFPAK APPLIED AIR HANDLERS 40 www.DaikinApplied.com

Unit Selection
For the constant volume, blow-through unit in Example 1, a
DWDI, forward curve or airfoil type fan can be selected. See
Application Considerations on page 29 for fan configuration
considerations. A fan type selection comparison for Example 1
is conducted as follows:
The optimal fan size for an airfoil fan without vanes is 30"
(from Figure 59 on page 68). Corresponding fan motor
characteristics are: Fan rpm = 1450 Brake horsepower = 27
Make the final selection by comparing energy savings to first
cost as follows:
Payback = savings / cost
where:
Savings = (bhp2 bhp1) (0.75 kW/hp / motor eff.) $/kwh
hr/yr, and cost = (fan and motor cost)1 (fan and motor cost)2

Supply Power Wiring for Units Without


Electric Heat
Sizing supply power wire for a unit is based on the circuit with
the largest amperage draw. With the power package option,
all electrical equipment is wired to a central panel for single or
optional dual connections. For Example 1, inclusion of a power
package with a single power connection is assumed. Refer
to Electrical Data on page 99 for FLA and RLA ratings of
equipment. Determining wire sizing amperes for Example 1 is
as follows.
Fans Only:
Wire sizing amperes = 1.25 FLA of largest motor +1.00 FLA
of other loads

Supply fan motor, 30 hp . . . . . . . 37.5

Return fan motor, 5 hp . . . . . . . 7.0
Therefore, wire sizing amperes = 1.25 37.5 + 1.00 7.0
= 53.9 amperes

Example 2
A constant air volume system with electric heat at 50 Hz.
Applicable design constraints in Example 1 are used in
Example 2 with the following parameters.
Winter design:
Total heating load . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 480,000 Btu/h
Electrical Design: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 380 V/50 Hz/3 phase

Selecting Unit Size and


Arrangement
For units providing no cooling, base model size on design
supply air capacity. Refer to the Physical Data on page 43
for approximate operating airflow ranges of each unit. The
minimum volume of air may be lower than the specified range.
Check the unit fan curve for stable operation of fan at desired
operating conditions. Based on air capacity constraints in
Example 2, select a RAH 047CY unit.

Selecting Heating Equipment at 50Hz


Electric heat
Select electric heat based on design heating load, minimum
supply air capacity, and air temperature rise requirements. A
maximum air temperature rise and minimum airflow limit exist
with all electric heaters. For the electric heating elements
available, the minimum airflow requirements are as follows:

RAH 047C . . . . . 14,200 cfm minimum


RAH 077C . . . . . 21,000 cfm minimum

Also, the supply fan static pressure is limited to 5.0 inches wg


in electric heat applications. Limitations are based on testing
performed under ETL-Canada guidelines.
When selecting electric heat for Example 2, correct heater
capacity to account for derated voltage supply. First convert the
given heating load to kW as follows:

kW = MBh / 3.413 = 480 / 3.413 = 140.6 kW

Since electrical data is not tabulated for a 380/50/3 supply,


use data provided for a voltage rating greater than design. For
Example 2, 480/60/3 data is used to determine the appropriate
model size of the heater. Follow the steps below when derating
electric heat:
1. Choose model size from tabulated kW greater than design.
2. Derate tabulated kW.
3. If derated kW is greater than design, select electric heater.

Unit Selection
Example 3

Example 2Model 240



kW2 = KW1 V2 / V1)2
= 238.8 (380 / 480)2
= 149.7 kW
Based on heating load capacity, Model 240 is adequate.
Reference Table 27 and Table 28 on page 55 for air
temperature rise data for heater. The air temperature rise
capability of this model at design conditions is 26.4F.
Comparing this value with design for a 20F temperature rise
confirms the acceptability of Model 240.
When electrical data is not tabulated, calculate the FLA rating
of the heater as follows:

Selecting RAH O77CL Chilled


Water Coils
Supply airflow = 40,000 cfm
The RAH O77CL unit contains two staggered chilled water
coils with a fin height of 63 inches each (see the Physical Data
on page 43). Divide coils greater than 54" in height and
individually run them on the coil selection program. For the
given configuration, split the coil into one 30 83 coil and one
33 83 coil and specify accordingly.


FLA = (kW l000) / (1.732 V)
= (149.7 1000) / (1.732 380)
= 227.5 amps

Ratio the airflow to each coil as follows:

Selecting Motors at 50 Hz

Read the coil selection output as follows:


Ind. airflow = airflow (in FH / total FH)
= 40,000 (30/126) = 9,523 cfm
= 40,000 (33/126) = 10,476 cfm
1. Add capacities together and multiply by two for
staggered configuration.

When operating at 50 Hz, available fan motors operate at


approximately 5/6 the rated capacity. Fans and motors may be
selected as in Example 1. However, selected motors must be
derated and design verified. The table below provides motor
correction factors for derating horsepower at 50 Hz.

2. Take air pressure drop directly from individual run.


3. Add water flow rates together.
4. Use the lowest water pressure drop value without addition.
The most economical chilled water unit coil is a 5WL
with 4 rows and 12 fpi. This coil assembly has a cooling
capacity of 1126 MBh sensible and 1615 MBh total. Air
pressure drop is 0.92 inches of water across the coil. The
required water flow rate is 160 gpm with a water pressure
drop of 12.5 feet of water through the coil.

Supply power wiring for fans and


electric heat
For Example 2, supply power wiring can be sized based on the
following wire sizing amperes formula.
Electric heat plus fans:
Electric heat less than or equal to 50 kW:
MCA = 1.25 (largest motor load plus heater FLA) + (the
rest of the loads)
Electric heat greater than or equal to 50 kW:
MCA = 1.25 (largest motor load) + heater FLA + (the rest
of the loads)

For the RAH O77CL without F&BP and the RAH O77CS with
F&BP, Table 16 on page 49 provides additional header
pressure drops. These values are added to the water pressure
drop provided by the coil selection program to account for
the presence of a continuous header. In the given example,
an additional 6.5 feet of water is added resulting in a water
pressure drop of 19 feet of water through the coil.
Example:
RAH O77CL chilled water valve and piping selection

Coil type = 5 WL
Water flow rate = 160 gpm

Determine valve size selection for the given chilled water coil
by entering Figure 41 on page 49 at 160 gpm and moving
vertically up past the minimum pressure drop line to the
nearest curve. Select a 2" valve with a pressure drop of 19.5
feet of water under design conditions. For proper temperature
control, maintain adequate pressure drop through the valve.
To determine the pressure drop through the valve piping, first
reference Table 15 on page 47 for the assigned index number
of the given valve. Then enter Figure 41 on page 49 at the
designated index number and water flow rate. Following vertically
down from the gpm curve, locate the corresponding pressure
drop. For this example, the chilled water valve piping pressure
drop is 8.0 feet of water. Therefore, the total valve and piping
pressure drop for the given chilled water coil is 27.5 feet of water.

Notes:
1. Pressure drop through hood and damper is based on 30% of listed airflow.
2. Pressure drop through the economizer assumes that all of the air will be passing through the return air dampers.
3. If a discharge plenum is not used with a DWDI supply fan, subtract this static pressure factor from the total static pressure drop.
4. Pressure drop through cooling coils can be found in the Daikin MS-85 selection program output or Coil Catalog 411.
5. A cooling diffuser is provided on blow-through units with cooling, hot water or steam heating.
6. Base design pressure drop across face and bypass dampers on the position creating the greatest resistance.

Recommended Clearances

Overhead Clearance
Unit(s) surrounded by screens or solid walls must have
no overhead obstructions over any part of the unit.

Ventilation Clearance
Unit(s) surrounded by a screen or a fence:

Area above condenser must be unobstructed in all


installations to allow vertical air discharge.

The bottom of the screen should be a minimum of 1 ft


above the roof surface.

The following restrictions must be observed for overhead


obstructions above the air handler section:

Minimum distance, unit to unit: 120 in

There must be no overhead obstructions above the


furnace flue, or within 9 inches of the flue box.

Minimum distance, unit to screen: same service clearance.

Unit(s) surrounded by solid walls:

Any overhead obstruction must not be within 2 inches


of the top of the unit.

Minimum distance, unit to wall: 96 in, all sizes

A service canopy must not protrude more than 24


inches beyond the unit in the area of the outside air
and exhaust dampers.

Wall height restrictions:

Figure 121: Overhead clearances

Minimum distance, unit to unit: 120 in


Wall on one side only or on two adjacent sides: no
restrictions.
Walls on more than two adjacent sides: wall height
not to exceed unit height.
Do not locate outside air intakes near exhaust vents or other
sources of contaminated air.
If the unit is installed where windy conditions are common,
install wind screens around the unit, maintaining the
clearances specified above. This is particularly important to
prevent blowing snow from entering outside air intakes, and
to maintain adequate head pressure control when mechanical
cooling is required at low outdoor air temperatures. SpeedTrol,
which is required for compressor operation below 45 F, will
maintain proper head pressure in calm wind conditions.

3. Minimum Circuit Ampacity (MCA) Calculation:
NOTE: If a unit is provided with multiple power connections,
each must be considered alone in selecting power
wiring components.
4. The MCA is calculated based on the following formula:
a. Fan(s) only:
MCA = 1.25 largest load + sum of all other loads
b. Electric heat plus fan(s):
Heater is = 50 kW

MCA = 1.25 (largest motor load) + (the rest of the


loads) + heater FLA
NOTE: Control circuit ampacity does not need to be
considered in the calculation for wire sizing ampacity.
If the unit is provided with one or more fan section
lights, they are powered from the separate 15 amp
(minimum), 120V supply required by the NEC for the
unit convenience outlet.
5. Size wires in accordance with Table 310-16 or 310-19 of
the National Electrical Code.
6. Size the wires for a maximum of 3% voltage drop.
