NC-2009 IEQc1:Outdoor Air Delivery Monitoring

Outdoor Air monitoring devices

Could a presure deferential sensor used as outdoor air monitoring devise?. It is a DOAS with diferential presure sensor wich will control the speed fan in order to deliver the same outdoor air when the filter gets old and the the presure increased.

This is not an acceptable solution for a variable volume system. If you are using a constant volume system, you may use a system status as a monitor.

Hi Andrew, it is a constant volume system. The diferential pressure sensor and the VRF adjust the fan speed in order to mantain the same cfm. As the filter gets dirty the pressure will increase and the fan will speed up to maintain the same air flow.

Just use the VFD status to comply with the credit.

Hi Andrew, So a project can use the VFDs to monitor fan status (at 100% outside air at constant volume) and not have to include CT monitors? Thanks

If it is a constant volume system, the VFD has a CT built in for status.
