Elsevier Science | 2008-12-31 | ISBN: 0080552331 | 250 pages | PDF



Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) control systems are omnipresent in modern buildings. This book is an
introduction to all those involved in the specification, design, manufacture, installation, operation or maintenance of
these systems. The book explains: control theory and how to evaluate, select, position and sequence the appropriate type
of control; the electrical knowledge needed to understand controls and the use of electrical circuit drawings; the
various types of valves and dampers, and their selection, installation and operation; terminology and attributes of
sensors, the selection of moisture sensors, pressure, flow, and auxiliary devices; and, self-powered and system-powered
controls. It also explains: electric controls, control diagrams and control logic; the components of pneumatic systems
and control applications diagrams; wiring conventions, application-specific electronic controllers and how to use them
in HVAC applications; the use of written specifications, schedules, and drawings to clearly identify what is to be
installed, how it is to be installed, and how it is expected to operate; Direct Digital Controls (DDC) components, their
inputs and outputs, and the programming of DDC routines; and, DDC Networks and Protocols; DDC Specification,
Installation and Commissioning. After completing this course, you will understand: control theory and how to evaluate,
select, position and sequence the appropriate type of control; the electrical knowledge needed to understand controls
and the use of electrical circuit drawings; the various types of valves and dampers, and their selection, installation
and operation; terminology and attributes of sensors, the selection of moisture sensors, pressure, flow, and auxiliary
devices; and, self-powered and system-powered controls Electric controls, control diagrams and control logic. This
course also helps you to understand: the components of pneumatic systems and control applications diagrams; wiring
