GENERAL
The EconoMi$er IV system utilizes the latest technology available for
integrating the use of free cooling with mechanical cooling for packaged
rooftop units. The solid-state control system optimizes energy consumption,
zone comfort, and equipment cycling by operating the compressors when the
outdoor-air temperature is too warm, integrating the compressor with outdoor
air when free cooling is available, and locking out the compressor when
outdoor-air temperature is too cold. Demand control ventilation is supported.
The EconoMi$er IV system utilizes gear-drive technology with a direct-mount
spring return actuator that will close upon loss of power. The EconoMi$er IV
system comes standard with an outdoor air temperature sensor, supply air
temperature sensor, and low temperature compressor lockout switch. Outdoor
enthalpy, indoor enthalpy, and CO2 sensors are available for field
installation.
Standard barometric relief dampers provide natural building pressurization
control. An optional power exhaust system is available for applications
requiring even greater exhaust capabilities. The power exhaust set point is
adjustable at the EconoMi$er IV controller.

CONFIGURATION
EconoMi$er IV Control Modes
Determine the EconoMi$er IV control mode before setup of the control. Some
modes of operation may require different sensors (see Table 3). The EconoMi$er
IV kits for field installation are supplied from the factory with supply air
temperature sensors, low temperature compressor lockout switches, and outdoor
air temperature sensors. This allows for operation of the EconoMi$er IV system
with outdoor air dry bulb changeover control. Additional accessories can be
added to allow for different types of changeover control and operation of the
EconoMi$er IV system and unit.
Occupancy Control (R-22 Models)
The factory default configuration for the EconoMi$er IV control is occupied
mode. Occupied status is provided by the black wire from Pin 3. When
unoccupied mode is desired, install a field-supplied timeclock function
interrupting the black wire to the N terminal. (See Fig. 8.) When the
timeclock contacts are closed, the EconoMi$er IV control will be in occupied
mode. When the timeclock contacts are open (removing the 24-v signal from
terminal N), the Economizer IVcontrol will be in unoccupied mode.
Occupancy Control (R-410A Models)
The factory default configuration for the EconoMi$er IV control is occupied
mode. Occupied status is provided by installing a field-supplied timeclock
function on the OCCUPANCY terminals on the CTB (Central Terminal Board) in the
unit’s main control box and cutting the “CUT FOR OCCUPANCY” jumper on the CTB
(See Fig. 14 and 15). When the timeclock contacts are closed, the EconoMi$er
IV control will be in occupied mode. When the timeclock contacts are open
removing the 24v signal from terminal N, the EconoMi$er IV control will be in
unoccupied mode.
Thermostats
The EconoMi$er IV control works with conventional thermostats that have a Y1
(cool stage 1), Y2 (cool stage 2), W1 (heat stage 1), W2 (heat stage 2), and G
(fan). The EconoMi$er IV control does not support space temperature sensors.
Connections are made at the thermostat section of the central terminal board
located in the main unit control box.
NOTE: When using differential enthalpy control and “integrated economizer
operation” is desired, a 2-stage cooling thermostat is required even on
1-stage cooling units (e.g. 2-6 ton rooftop units). A thermostat lead must be
made between Y2-output on thermostat and Y2-input on rooftop unit’s Central
Terminal Board (CTB). Internal wiring between Y2-input on the unit CTB and the
economizer controller’s Y2 input already exists in unit wiring harness and the
economizer plug, so no field modifications are required.
Supply Air Temperature (SAT) Sensor
The supply air temperature sensor is a 3 K thermistor located at the inlet of
the indoor fan. (See Fig. 10.) This sensor is field installed. The operating
range of temperature measurement is 0°F (–18°C) to 158°F (70°C). See Table 5
for sensor temperature/resistance values. The temperature sensor looks like an
eyelet terminal with wires running to it. The sensor is located in the “crimp
end” and is sealed from moisture.

Low Temperature Compressor Lockout Switch
The EconoMi$er IV system is equipped with a low ambient temperature lockout
switch located in the outdoor airstream which is used to lock out the
compressors below a 42°F (6°C) ambient temperature. (See Fig. 1.)
Outdoor Air Temperature (OAT) Sensor
The outdoor air temperature sensor (HH57AC080) is a 10 to 20 mA device used to
measure the outdoor-air temperature. The outdoor-air temperature is used to
determine when the EconoMi$er IV system can be used for free cooling. The
sensor has 8 selectable temperature changeover set points, ranging from 48°F
(9°C) to 78°F (26°C). The temperature changeover is set using the 3 dip
switches on the sensor. (See Fig. 12 and 13.)
Fig. 13 — EconoMi$er IV Controller Potentiometer and LED Locations
Outdoor Dry Bulb Changeover
The standard controller for field installed accessory economizers is shipped
from the factory configured for outdoor dry bulb changeover control. For this
control mode, the outdoor temperature is compared to a selectable set point on
the OAT sensor. If the outdoor air temperature is above the set point, the
EconoMi$er IV controller will adjust the outdoor air dampers to minimum
position. If the outdoor air temperature is below the set point, the position
of the outdoor air dampers will be controlled to provide free cooling using
outdoor air. When in this mode, the Free Cool LED next to the outdoor enthalpy
set point (ABCD) potentiometer will be on. The changeover temperature set
point is controlled by the dip switches on the sensor. See Fig. 12 and 13 for
the switch positions corresponding to the temperature changeover values. The
ABCD potentiometer on the controller should be turned fully clockwise (CW) to
the “D” position.
Outdoor Enthalpy Changeover
For enthalpy control, accessory enthalpy sensor (part number HH57AC078) is
required. Replace the standard outdoor dry bulb temperature sensor with the
accessory enthalpy sensor in the same mounting location. (See Fig. 1.) When
the outdoor air enthalpy rises above the outdoor enthalpy changeover set
point, the outdoor-air damper moves to its minimum position The outdoor
enthalpy changeover set point is set with the outdoor enthalpy set point
(ABCD) potentiometer on the EconoMi$er IV controller. The set points are A, B,
C, and D (see Fig. 13, 14, and 17). The factory-installed 620-ohm jumper must
be in place across terminals SR and SR+ on EconoMi$er IV controller. (See Fig.
8.) When not using CO2 sensors, set the DCV Max potentiometer to completely
closed (CCW) to ensure that the Minimum Position potentiometer functions
correctly.
Differential Enthalpy Control
For differential enthalpy control, the EconoMi$er IV controller uses two
enthalpy sensors, HH57AC078 in the outside air and CRENTDIF004A00 in the
return airstream. The EconoMi$er IV controller compares the outdoor air
enthalpy to the return air enthalpy to determine EconoMi$er IV damper
position. The controller selects the lower enthalpy air (return or outdoor)
for cooling. For example, when the outdoor air has a lower enthalpy than the
return air, the EconoMi$er IV damper opens to bring in outdoor air for free
cooling. Replace the standard outside air dry bulb temperature sensor with the
accessory enthalpy sensor in the same mounting location. (See Fig. 1.) Mount
the return air enthalpy sensor in the return air duct. (See Fig. 8 and 16.)
When using this mode of changeover control, turn the outdoor enthalpy set
point (ABCD) potentiometer fully clockwise to the D setting.
Power Exhaust Set Point Adjustment
If the optional power exhaust accessory is installed, the exhaust set point
will determine when the power exhaust fan runs based on damper position. The
set point is modified with the Exhaust Fan Set Point (EXH SET) potentiometer.
(See Fig. 14.) The set point represents the damper position above which the
exhaust fans will be turned on. When there is a call for exhaust, the
EconoMi$er IV controller provides a 45 ± 15 second delay before exhaust fan
activation to allow the dampers to open. This delay allows the damper to reach
the appropriate position to avoid unnecessary fan overload.
CAUTION
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in damage to equip-ment.
If a separate field-supplied transformer is used to power the IAQ sensor, the
sensor must not be grounded or the EconoMi$er IV control board will be
damaged.
Fig. 14 — EconoMi$er IV Controller
Fig. 17 — Enthalpy Changeover Setpoints
Minimum Damper Position Control
There is a minimum damper position potentiometer on the EconoMi$er IV
controller. (See Fig. 13.) Adjust the Min Pos potentiometer to allow the
minimum or base amount of outdoor air, as required by local codes, to enter
the building. Make minimum position adjustments with at least 10°F (–12°C)
temperature difference between the outdoor and return-air temperatures. The
minimum damper position maintains the minimum airflow for full occupancy into
the building during the occupied period when demand control ventilation is not
being used.
When the control is operating in Demand Control Ventilation (DCV) mode (see
separate section following), the minimum damper position sets the minimum
ventilation position for VOC (volatile organic compound) contaminant removal
during lightly occupied periods. In this mode the DCV Max potentiometer is
used for fully occupied ventilation.
NOTE: When DCV is not being used, set the DCV Max potentiometer to completely
closed (CCW) to ensure that the Minimum Position potentiometer functions
correctly. If the DCV Max is set more open than Min Pos and <1 Vdc is detected
across the CO2 sensor terminals, then DCV Max will override and become the
actual lower limit on damper position.
To determine the minimum position setting, perform the following procedure:
-
Calculate the appropriate mixed air temperature using the following formula:
(TO x OA/100) + (TR x RA/100) = TM
TO = Outdoor-Air Temperature OA = Percent of Outdoor Air TR = Return-Air Temperature RA = Percent of Return Air TM = Mixed-Air Temperature -
Disconnect the supply air sensor from terminals T and T1 (see Fig. 17) and jumper them together. The mixed air temperature controller will sense 55°F (13°C) and will not modulate the damper.
-
Ensure that the factory-installed jumper is in place across terminals P and P1 (for remote control of damper position see the Remote Control of Damper Position section).
-
Connect 24 Vac across terminals TR and TR1 (factory wiring should ensure this if the 12-pin plug is connected). Carefully adjust the Min Pos potentiometer until the measured mixed-air temperature matches the calculated value. Measurement must be done with a separate thermometer or sensor accurate to ± 0.5°F.
-
If the DCV maximum ventilation position is set with the DCV Max potentiometer, the setting should be made while the 24 Vac is across terminal TR and TR1. See the Demand Controlled Ventilation section.
-
Remove the jumper and reconnect the supply air sensor to terminals T and T1.
Remote Control of Damper Position
Remote control of the EconoMi$er IV damper is desirable when additional
temporary ventilation may be required. If a field-supplied remote
potentiometer (such as Honeywell part number S963B1128) is wired to the
EconoMi$er IV controller, the minimum position of the damper can be controlled
from a remote location. If remote damper positioning is being used, use Steps
1 and 2 above, then follow these additional steps to determine the remote
position setting for the desired percent airflow.
- Remove the factory-installed black jumper connecting terminals P and P1 (see Fig. 8).
- Turn the EconoMi$er IV Min Pos potentiometer fully clock-wise.
- Connect the remote minimum position potentiometer across terminals P and P1.
- Connect 24 Vac across terminals TR and TR1.
- Carefully adjust the remote minimum position potentiometer until the measured mixed-air temperature matches the calculated value.
- Reconnect the supply air sensor to terminals T and T1.
Damper Movement
Damper movement from full open to full close (or vice versa) takes 3 minutes.
Demand Controlled Ventilation (DCV)
Demand controlled ventilation uses an optional accessory carbon dioxide (CO2)
sensor to measure the amount of CO2 in indoor air. The controller uses this
input to adjust outside air ventilation to maintain indoor air quality (IAQ)
based on a user configurable maximum CO2 level. This typically reduces outside
air intake requirements and therefore energy consumption.
When using the EconoMi$er IV system for demand controlled ventilation, three
controller potentiometers require adjustment to be set:
- the minimum damper position to ventilate the lightly occupied building
- the triggering CO2 level to begin opening the damper
- the maximum damper position to provide fresh air to for a fully occupied building.
The damper settings (in terms of % fresh air flow) and the CO2 level in term
of parts per million (ppm) should be provided by the consulting engineer(s) on
the job, calculated based on building codes and/or ASHRAE Standard 62.1.
Examples in this instruction use typical numbers.
To set up DCV:
CO2 / Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Sensor
Mount the accessory IAQ sensor according to manufacturer specifications in the
space or return air duct. The IAQ sensor should be wired to the AQ and AQ1
terminals of the controller.
Fig. 19 — Proportional and Exponential Control
CO2 Sensor Configuration
Set up the CO2 sensor according to the manufacturer’s instructions that come
with the unit. The default setting on factory-supplied sensors is a measuring
range of 0 to 2000 ppm CO2 concentration with a 0 to 10 Vdc proportional
(linear) output.
NOTE: The EconoMi$er IV control assumes the presence of a correctly
functioning CO2 sensor if the voltage across the AQ – AQ1 terminals ≥ 1 Vdc,
because it assumes the sensors are set up for 2 to 10 Vdc output. Otherwise it
will not operate in DCV mode and instead opens the dampers to the more open of
the MIN POS and DCV Max set points. Factory-supplied sensors’ default settings
are 0 to 10 Vdc, but because there is always CO2 in the air, a reading of at
least 2 Vdc will be shown under normal circumstances. However if the factory-
supplied sensors are reprogrammed (to increase the range, change the output
voltage, etc.) it is possible to lower the sensor voltage output too low.
Therefore, if the factory-supplied CO2 sensor is reprogrammed, ensure the
minimum voltage output up is adjusted from 0 to 2 Vdc to avoid this issue.
Factory-supplied sensors offer the option of changing to an exponential
anticipatory response (see Fig. 19) which generates higher output voltages at
midrange sensor readings to make the controller introduce more outside
ventilation air at lower CO2 concentrations. Continuing the example from Step
3 (page 11) of the Demand Controlled Ventilation section, if after DCV Set
adjustment the CO2 sensor is adjusted from proportional to exponential, the
sensor voltage output would reach 5 Vdc at a CO2 concentration below 1000 ppm,
prompting the controller to open sooner to anticipate ventilation demands.
Exponential anticipatory response would be appropriate for zones with:
- large air volumes such as gyms or theaters where higher CO2 levels might take a while to build up or reach the sensor.
- widely varying occupancy levels
- HVAC equipment that cannot exceed the required ventilation rate at design conditions. Exceeding the required ventilation rate means the equipment can condition air at a maximum ventilation rate that is greater than the required ventilation rate for maximum occupancy.
