The VVT Bypass II (#OPN-VVTBP-02), a component of the i-Vu® Control System, regulates the supply duct static
pressure by controlling one of the following:
•The system's bypass damper
The controller's damper actuator provides 45 in/lbs (5 Nm) of torque. If the actuator's torque is insufficient,
the VVT Bypass II can be used to drive an external high-torque actuator. Or, the controller can drive multiple
external damper actuators.
•The air source supply fan's variable frequency drive (VFD)
The VVT Bypass II controller is available in both English or Metric units. The metric version has (-M)
appended to the part number. Everything in this document applies to both versions.
The i-Vu Control System uses linkage to exchange data between the zone terminals and their air source to form a
coordinated HVAC system. The system's air source controller, zone controllers, and bypass controller are linked so
that their data exchange can be managed by one zone controller configured as the VVT Master.
You can disconnect the actuator from the controller and mount them separately, connecting them with just the
actuator cable or using an additional extension cable, up to a maximum distance of 300 feet.
The following illustration shows the VVT Bypass II in a typical i-Vu® Control System.

The VVT Bypass II maintains supply duct static pressure under all system operating conditions and can
operate as part of a linked VVT system or as a stand-alone controller.
The VVT Bypass II modulates a bypass damper or VFD to maintain the static pressure in the supply duct of the
pressure-dependent VVT system. The VVT Bypass II has a damper actuator that provides 45 in./lbs (5 Nm) of
torque.
You can use the controller's 0–10 Vdc output to:
•Drive a larger actuator if the VVT Bypass II's actuator's torque is insufficient. The actuator must be
installed so that 0 volts causes the bypass damper to fully open. See

below and High-torque
• Drive multiple damper actuators from a single bypass controller. See
• Control a VFD
You cannot use the VVT Bypass II's actuator if external actuator(s) are wired to the analog output.
If linkage is active, normal duct static pressure control is overridden if the linked air source is in either of the
following modes:
•Fire shutdown or evacuation mode – The bypass damper will be fully open. If controlling a VFD, the VFD
output will be at 0%.
•Pressurization mode – The bypass damper will be fully closed. If controlling a VFD, the VFD output will be
at 100%.
To protect the air source from excessive supply air temperature conditions, the VVT Bypass II monitors the
supply air temperature. If the temperature reaches either the
the
which increases airflow through the air source.
The amount of increase in airflow is related to the square root of the pressure increase. For example, a 25%
increase in airflow at 1 in. (.249 kPa) of static pressure would require a 56% increase in duct static pressure
[1 in.H2O (.249 kPa) * 1.252 = 1.56 in. H2O (.388 kPa)]. The default

The Bypass does not resume normal control to the Duct Static Pressure Setpoint until the SAT drops 15 °F
(8.3
°C) below the Maximum Heating Sat or rises 7 °F (3.9 °C) above the Minimum Cooing Setpoint.
If the supply air temperature exceeds the configured limits, a
is generated. If
Linkage is active, the controller monitors the supply air temperature from the equipment rather than its own
temperature input for faster response.
The VVT Bypass II continuously monitors its damper's position and the supply duct static pressure. If the
pressure drops below 10% of the nominal setpoint and the bypass damper is fully closed (or VFD is
commanded to maximum speed), after 1 minute the controller assumes that the equipment fan turned off.
The bypass damper then modulates to 65% open and the VFD speed is commanded to 35% (3.5 volts) to
facilitate a fan restart. The controller monitors the static pressure to determine when the equipment fan
restarts. If it rises above 10% of the nominal pressure setpoint, the controller assumes the fan restarted and
controls to maintain the duct static pressure setpoint. If Linkage is active, the air source mode is provided to
the VVT Bypass II.
The VVT Bypass II generates an alarm if the supply air temperature remains above the configured
or below the configured
When the VVT Bypass II is part of a linked system, it uses data received through Linkage (equipment SAT and
mode) to detect excessive leaving air temperature (LAT) conditions at the equipment and equipment
operating mode.
– In a linked system, the air source determines its operating mode and qualifies
that mode based on its own SAT. The following modes can be sent by the air source depending on its
capability and configuration:
Air source fan is off. Terminal damper is positioned approximately 70%
open to allow for system restart.
Air source fan is on and providing first cycle of heat when changing from
unoccupied to occupied. It may also be used as an equipment safety to
increase system airflow. The terminal’s heating setpoint temporarily
increases to the midpoint between the configured occupied heating and
occupied cooling setpoints.
Air source fan is on and providing heat. The terminal modulates its primary
air damper to maintain the current heating setpoint.
Air source fan is on and providing cooling using only the economizer and
usually during an unoccupied period. The terminal modulates its primary air
damper to maintain the midpoint between the configured occupied heating
and occupied cooling setpoints.
Air source fan is on and providing cooling. The terminal modulates its
primary air damper to maintain the current cooling setpoint.
Air source supply fan is on usually as a result of a fire-life safety input being
active. It may also be used as an equipment safety to increase system
airflow. The terminal modulates its primary air damper to provide the
configured maximum cooling airflow.
Evacuation is usually the result of a fire-life safety input at the air source
being active. The terminal fully closes its primary air damper and disables
its terminal fan, if equipped.
All terminals treat VENT mode the same as the COOL mode. For VVT
terminals, VENT modes allows for an increase in airflow. VVT terminals use
the greater of the configured Vent Damper Position or the Minimum Cooling
Damper Position as the minimum during the VENT mode.

In less than .02% of installations, small particulates (micron/submicron-level) can build up in the airflow
sensor's internal orifice causing airflow restriction. Symptoms of airflow restriction are:
• Diffuser noise increases over time
• Space overcools at minimum airflow
• Frequency of dampers opening to maintain flow setpoint increases over time
• AHU fan speed increases over time
To check for these symptoms, set up trending of:
• Damper position to look for long term increase
• AHU fan speed for maintaining static pressure
If you see these symptoms, you should clean the flow sensor.
To clean the flow sensor

cause the static pressure setpoint to be set to the LAT Duct Static Pressure Setpoint.
This is also the
's low limit.
– The amount that is added to and subtracted from the
bypass controlling setpoint (Duct Static Pressure Setpoint or LAT Duct Static Pressure
Setpoint). When the static pressure is within the controlling setpoint +/- this value, the
output to the actuator or VFD drive maintains at its current position. When the static
pressure is greater than the controlling setpoint +/- this value, the output modulates
accordingly.
If this value is too low, the damper may oscillate to maintain the static
pressure. This could cause the actuator to fail prematurely.

– Closes the bypass damper and waits for the air source to go to the
Off mode before zeroing out the static pressure sensor. This does not occur if
the static pressure is > .05 in. H2O (.0125 kPa) .
– Allows you to calibrate the pressure sensor after the
Zero Cal has been performed. To enter a value here, neither the damper nor
the pressure sensor can be locked, the bypass cannot be in LAT mode and the
damper position must be >0% and <100%. The value entered will be the actual
static pressure measured with an accurate static pressure measuring device.
– Overrides the damper to its full open position.
– Returns the damper to its normal control routines.
– Overrides the damper to its full closed position.
– Displays the current supply air temperature. R: -56 to 245°F
– A calibration offset value to allow the supply air
temperature sensor to be adjusted to match a calibrated standard measuring the
temperature in the same location.
