SUGGESTED GUIDE SPECIFICATIONS
Thermally powered variable air volume diffuser shall be Carnes Model SFPV diffuser. Each unit shall be a self-contained, self-powered VAV room temperature control in a nominal 24”x 24” (610x610mm) diffuser. External wiring or pneumatics shall not be allowed.
The diffuser shall vary supply air volume to provide both VAV heating and VAV cooling. They shall be thermally powered by using
two room temperature sensing elements, and two supply air sensing elements. The room temperature settings shall be separately
adjustable.
One room sensing element shall sense room temperature and vary the support air when cooling. The other room sensing element
shall sense room temperature and vary the supply air when heating.
Each room sensing element shall be factory set at 74 degree set point heating and cooling (approximately 3 turns out from plastic
isolator bushing). For more heating, turn element #3 counterclockwise and less heating turn element #3 clockwise. For a cooler
room temperature, turn element #4 clockwise. For a warmer room, temperature turn counterclockwise. Determine room temperature set-point by aligning the end of the element with the indicators on the temperature scale. Each full turn, or each indicator will
equal plus or minus 2 degrees.
In the heating mode the VAV diffuser shall close on a rise in room temperature and in the cooling mode they shall open on a rise in
room temperature. The change over element #2 shall be factory installed and set to engage the cooling mode when supply air temperature rises above 78 degrees F and return to the heating mode when supply air temperature falls below 68 degrees F.
Each unit shall have a circular cone shaped damper to provide maximum Coanda effect and to avoid dumping. Each unit shall have
1/8” (3mm) foam padding for quiet operation.
Each diffuser shall have an appearance panel that can be easily removed from the spring clips to allow adjustment of room temperature set points. Instructions for the diffuser shall be on the back side of the appearance panel.
The manufacturer shall warrant the diffuser for 10 years. The diffuser shall be free from defects in material and workmanship.
