DocuSign Envelope ID: 9826C043- 4C32- 49CD- A4CC- DC28ABAB7CE7 <br />SECTION 238147 — DEDICATED OUTDOOR AIR SYSTEM <br />door air shall be drawn through the bypass dampers to reduce the pressure drop of the outdoor air- <br />stream. <br />L. The rooftop unit DDC controller shall provide frost control for the energy recovery wheel. When a <br />frost condition is encountered the unit controller shall stop the wheel. When in the frost control mode <br />the wheel shall be jogged periodically and not be allowed to stay in the stationary position. <br />2.06 EXHAUST FAN <br />A. Exhaust fan shall be a single width, single inlet (SWSI) airfoil centrifugal fan. The fan wheel shall <br />be Class II construction with aluminum fan blades that are continuously welded to the hub plate and <br />end rim. The exhaust fan shall be a direct drive fan mounted to the motor shaft. Belts and sheaves <br />are not acceptable due to the additional maintenance. <br />B. The fan motor shall be a totally enclosed EC motor that is speed controlled by the rooftop unit <br />controller. The motor shall include thermal overload protection and protect the motor in the case of <br />excessive motor temperatures. The motor shall have phase failure protection and prevent the motor <br />from operation in the event of a loss of phase. Motors shall be premium efficiency. <br />C. The unit DDC controller shall provide building static pressure control. The unit controller shall pro- <br />vide proportional control of the exhaust fans from 25% to 100% of the supply air fan designed airflow <br />to maintain the adjustable building pressure setpoint. The field shall mount the required sensing tub- <br />ing from the building to the factory mounted building static pressure sensor. <br />2.07 FILTERS <br />A. Unit shall be provided with a draw - through filter section. The filter rack shall be designed to ac- <br />cept a 2" prefilter and a 4" final filter. The unit design shall have a hinged access door for the filter <br />section. The manufacturer shall ship the rooftop unit with 2" MERV 8 construction filters. The con- <br />tractor shall furnish and install, at building occupancy, the final set of filters per the contract docu- <br />ments. <br />2.08 COOLING COIL <br />A. The indoor coil section shall be installed in a draw through configuration, upstream of the supply <br />air fan. The coil section shall be complete with a factory piped cooling coil and an ASHRAE 62.1 <br />compliant double sloped drain pan. <br />B. The direct expansion (DX) cooling coils shall be fabricated of seamless high efficiency copper tub- <br />ing that is mechanically expanded into high efficiency aluminum plate fins. Coils shall be a multi - <br />row, staggered tube design with a minimum of 3 rows. All cooling coils shall have an interlaced coil <br />circuiting that keeps the full coil face active at all load conditions. All coils shall be factory leak tested <br />with high pressure air under water. <br />C. The cooling coil shall have an electronic controlled expansion valve. The unit controller shall con- <br />trol the expansion valve to maintain liquid subcooling and the superheat of the refrigerant system. <br />D. The refrigerant suction lines shall be fully insulated from the expansion valve to the compressors. <br />E. The drain pan shall be stainless steel and positively sloped. The slope of the drain pan shall be in <br />two directions and comply with ASHRAE Standard 62.1. The drain pan shall have a minimum slope <br />of 1/8" per foot to provide positive draining. The drain pan shall extend beyond the leaving side of <br />the coil. The drain pan shall have a threaded drain connection extending through the unit base. <br />2.09 HOT GAS REHEAT <br />A. Unit shall be equipped with a fully modulating hot gas reheat coil with hot gas coming from the <br />unit condenser <br />B. Hot gas reheat coil shall be a Micro Channel design. The aluminum tube shall be a micro channel <br />design with high efficiency aluminum fins. Fins shall be brazed to the tubing for a direct bond. The <br />capacity of the reheat coil shall allow for a 20 °F temperature rise at all operating conditions. <br />C. The modulating hot gas reheat systems shall allow for independent control of the cooling coil <br />leaving air temperature and the reheat coil leaving air temperature. The cooling coil and reheat coil <br />leaving air temperature setpoints shall be adjustable through the unit controller. During the dehumid- <br />ification cycle the unit shall be capable of 100% of the cooling capacity. The hot gas reheat coil shall <br />provide discharge temperature control within +/- 2 °F. <br />Reece, Noland & McElrath, Inc. 238147-4 Orange County Board of Elections <br />Orange Co., NC 05/04/18 <br />
