Q

NO AIRFLOW ALARM

A

NO AIRFLOW ALARM

  1. When no airflow is detected via the air fl ow switch, the cooling, reheat humidifi cation and dehumidifi cation functions are locked out until the alarm condition is corrected. Sub-menu 4-24 allows you to adjust the delay the polling of the air fl ow detector at start-up of the fan from 5 to 180 seconds. This is to minimize false alarms due to air turbulence.
  2. The audio alarm is activated and ‘NO AIRFLOW” message will be displayed on the processor display screen.
