Oversizing — Oversizing of variable volume systems re-
sults in unused equipment capacity and worse performance
at part load, not in increased system airflow. The actual sys-
tem operation will reflect the actual system load, not the de-
sign load. If conservative data, safety factors, or provision
for future loads are included in the design estimate, the ac-
tual system airflow will not be increased. The equipment will
be capable of handling an increased load should it ever ex-
ist, but will automatically throttle back to handle only the
actual load at that moment.
It is recommended that safety factors not be included in
load calculations; they are not included in the following method.
Air Motion, Ventilation and Odor Dilution — Air motion,
ventilation, and odor dilution deserve special attention in the
design of a VAV system. The designer must visualize the
correct system operating condition in order to evaluate the
adequacy of these items at either full or part-load cooling
conditions, or during the heating season.
Room air motion is determined by the supply air quantity
and the diffuser induction ratio. The minimum room air ve-
locity is higher if building humidity and temperature are higher.
The design cfm at peak cooling load in any zone should be
not less than the minimum shown below:

0.7

These minimums are based on using the Carrier Modu-
line diffuser, which has very high performance; competitive
diffusers require a higher cfm/sq ft.
The outside air cfm requirement at maximum design con-
ditions may be determined by local building code. If the out-
side air cfm to the central air handler is adequate to maintain
a low overall building odor level, the odor level in a par-
ticular space will depend upon the odors generated locally in
that space and the supply airflow to that space. A space with
high odor generation (a conference room with much smok-
ing) should be provided with a separate exhaust system to
increase the air flow through the space for odor dilution. The
only way to increase the VAV airflow to that space would be
to add reheat to increase the room sensible heat, which is
unacceptable from an energy conservation standpoint.

for Single-Story Office Building
LOAD CONSIDERATIONS
Lighting — Even though lighting loads (Watts/sq ft) are con-
siderably lower in today’s buildings, the lighting is by far
the largest load component.
It is necessary, therefore, to pay close attention to getting
an accurate estimate of the lighting requirements.
In estimating the lighting load, special consideration should
be given to evaluating storage effect and the performance of
return air ceiling plenums. Both of these items reduce the
peak room load from lights and delay the time at which the
stored heat becomes a load on the central equipment.
The following odor dilution cfm (either VAV supply or
supplemental exhaust cfm) is usually adequate:
Private or General Office — 0.25 cfm/sq ft
Major Conference Room — 1.0 cfm/sq ft

1. Using the E20-II Block Load Program, select Cincinnati
for its weather data. The WEATHER PARAMETERS print-
out shown on pages 5 and 6 shows the weather data used
for the load estimating calculations.
Supply Air Temperature — In systems using draw-thru air
handling units and high induction Carrier Moduline termi-
nal units, the acceptable range of supply air temperatures at
the terminals is from 50 to 54 F. The cooling coil ADP (Ap-
paratus Dew Point) will be from 3 to 5° F lower than the
supply air temperature, due to allowance for coil bypass, fan
heat and duct gain.
The system installed cost for ductwork, central air han-
dler, and VAV terminals will be greater if the air quantity is
higher because of the designer’s choice of a higher supply
air temperature. The increased fan air quantity will result in
higher fan operating cost, which may be offset by the lower
cost of operating the refrigeration system at a higher suction
temperature. The higher coil surface temperature (ADP) of
the system will result in a higher building humidity, which
will be less comfortable and require greater ventilation air.
2. The next step is to gather data on the building, including
dimensions, construction materials used, internal load pat-
terns (such as lighting levels) and the building orienta-
tion. For our example, we have divided the building into
nine zones. The actual building has ten zones on its north
exposure, but we’ve grouped them all into a single zone
because zones on the same exposure tend to have similar
load patterns. Similarly, the ten south exposure zones have
been grouped into a single zone, and the four east and
west zones have been combined into single east and west
zones respectively.
Pages 7-15 contain the ZONE DESCRIPTION printouts
for each of the nine zones.
An unduly low choice of supply air temperature may
result in unacceptably low room air motion in interior zones
with low lighting levels, and in unnecessarily low
humidity.
The same supply air temperature must be used for the zone
load and block load estimates.
3. The final input step is to select an initial set of system
design data, including the cooling and heating set points,
the supply air temperature (or supply airflow rate, if that
is known) and the fan static pressure. This system design
data will, of course, be directly influenced by the actual
central station equipment, be it packaged or applied.
Load Calculating Methods — The cooling load estimates can
be made very accurately and quickly using the Carrier E20-II
Block Load program.
Because of the computer’s speed, it is not necessary to
compromise the design procedure to obtain the most accu-
rate result. The optimum design procedure listed here as-
sumes the use of the E20-II program, and may require ‘‘short
cuts’’ when using manual methods.
While the E-20 program is the most convenient and rapid
method of load calculation, other methods will also provide
the required results. In particular, Carrier multi-room load
estimating form E-5056 is available for this purpose.
Page 16 shows the HVAC SYSTEM DATA printout which
lists the system design data we’ve selected for this
example.
Load Calculations — With the input data from Step 1, the
Block Load Program calculates the building loads for each
month of the year to find the largest load on the building’s
air conditioning system. Typically, this will occur during the
middle or late afternoon hours in July or August. The
SYSTEM SIZING SUMMARY printout shown on pages 17
and 18 provides both the cooling and heating equipment siz-
ing data. At the same time, it provides the maximum cooling
load, maximum heating load and design airflow rate for each
zone in the building. Notice that each zone may peak at a
month and hour different from that at which the HVAC sys-
tem peaks. The detailed system load report is shown on
page 19.
DESIGN PROCEDURE (with example)
Data Collection — Our example uses Cincinnati, Ohio as a
representative city. The building is a one-story office build-
ing with 11,250 sq ft. The building layout is shown in
Fig. 4 on page 3.

Moduline Selection (Analysis of Data) — The printout shown below presents an analysis of the preceding data.
Separate Duct Heating — A simple type of overhead air heat-
ing system for use with a Moduline cooling system consists
of a series of ceiling outlets, placed around the perimeter of
the building close to the outside wall, which blow warm air
outward and/or downward to floor level. The outlets are con-
nected by a simple duct system to an electric (or hot water)
heating-only fan coil unit located above the ceiling. (See
Fig. 5.) A minimum of one fan coil unit per exposure is used
for each story of the building. The fan coil unit draws air
from the ceiling plenum and distributes it to the building pe-
rimeter by means of a separate duct system. This type of
heating system operates at constant volume.
The separate duct heating approach allows heat to blanket
the outside wall, eliminating the transmission of heat through
the outside wall and permits the Moduline cooling units to
be located in the best arrangement for cooling distribution.
Control interlock between separate system heating and Modu-
line cooling is outlined in the Control Applications section,
on page 44.
Heating — Heat must be provided in a building to offset
losses through the perimeter walls, windows, and roof. In
the interior spaces the heat gain from lights and people will
in many cases be enough to cause a cooling load even in
winter.
The two most commonly used heating systems are these:
• Baseboard
• Overhead air
Baseboard has been used historically in the North because
it is effective in overcoming the downdraft from windows,
particularly with the large single pane windows used in the
past.
Now, with improvements in the building thermal enve-
lope due to better materials and construction methods, over-
head air heating is a viable and attractive alternative.
Overhead air heating, when properly applied, can handle
all requirements except the severe cases in which the wall U
values and temperature differences are large.
The 35BD heating slot boot diffuser (Fig. 6) is specifi-
cally designed for this heating approach and will provide ex-
cellent distribution of the hot air necessary to offset the load.
Overhead air heating is the method which will be con-
sidered for these procedures.
OVERHEAD AIR HEATING — Two basic forms of over-
head heating are used with Moduline cooling systems:
• Separate duct heating
• Changeover Moduline heating/cooling

The Moduline location for heating and cooling requires
the unit to be a specific distance from the outside wall in
order to produce satisfactory distribution of the hot air. The
recommended location is shown in Fig. 8.
Changeover Moduline Heating/Cooling — Both hot air and
cold air distribution are possible with a Moduline system.
The Moduline unit uses a director diffuser which, sensing
the duct temperature of the supply air, directs the air towards
or away from the perimeter wall. (Fig. 7.)
HEATING
COOLING
With cold air in the duct, the discharge is two-way blow — both into
the room and towards the wall.
With hot air in the duct, all discharge air is directed towards the
perimeter wall to offset the transmission.

Additional Guidelines for Heating — In addition to down-
blow slot boot diffusers and Moduline director diffusers, round
nozzles spaced along the perimeter wall will also provide
satisfactory overhead heating distribution. Some guidance for
outlet use are shown in Tables 1 and 2.
TERMINAL SELECTION
AND LAYOUT
Introduction — Selecting the terminals and making a
layout is one of the most important steps in the design pro-
cess. This is where you use your knowledge to lay out the
job at a low cost and still give your client a satisfactory job.
There are 4 items which must be considered when select-
ing an air terminal:
Moduline heating and cooling is less flexible than sepa-
rate duct system heating with Moduline cooling because:
• Moduline heating/cooling is a changeover system requir-
ing complete replacement of the cooling duct supply air
with heated air, making zone control difficult.
• air volume (Cfm) per terminal — a function of 1) the de-
sired sound level in the space, and 2) cost
• layout — a function of 1) the proper room air motion and
2) physical spacing
• unit combinations and run-out duct
• controller location
• Moduline location is a compromise between obtaining out-
side wall coverage with hot air and good cooling
distribution.
Thus, separate duct heating can provide heat for a given
exposure without materially affecting the building cooling
system. The heating outlets and Moduline terminals can be
located in the most efficient air distribution places of the con-
ditioned space.
Definitions — Following are definitions of terms used
when discussing the layout of a Moduline system.
Moduline units are arranged as single units or as units in
an air series.
SINGLE UNIT — A single unit is connected to the supply
duct and supplies conditioned air to a space or part of a space.
Fig. 9.
Table 1 — Optimum Outlet Discharge
AIR SERIES — Units in air series are connected unit-to-
unit or with interconnecting ductwork and the supply air for
all units enters the first unit in the series. Fig. 10.

Fig. 13 — Control End of Unit
Step 1 — Determine Air Volume (Cfm) Per Ter-
minal — Before you can start making a layout, you must
know the required air volumes (cfm).
Use the cfm per zone you obtained from the cooling load
calculation and, using Table 3, Recommended Maximum Cfm
Per Terminal, decide on the number of terminals you will
need in each zone.
Fig. 11 — Master Unit and Slave Units
Cost dictates that the fewest number of Moduline units be
used consistent with good design. The maximum cfm per
unit that can be used (to keep the total number of units down)
is mainly a function of maximum acceptable sound level.
Perimeter zones with glass in the east, west, and south
building zones have peaks of rather short duration (i.e. loads
vary widely during the course of the day and year). There-
fore, a higher sound level can be tolerated for these short
peaks.
CONTROL END — The control end of a Moduline unit is
the end containing a control block at the end plate of the
valve section of the unit. (Fig. 12.) The end of the unit op-
posite the control end contains a blank block. The control
end of the Moduline unit is at the longer of the diffuser pro-
jections from the plenum. In Fig. 13, the longer projection,
B, is the control end.
The filter, volume controller, and diffuser-mounted ther-
mostat are applied to the control end of a master unit.

As a result, slightly higher maximum cfm per unit is al-
lowed as compared to interior zones or the north perimeter,
which have relatively constant loads.
The maximum cfm per unit also is affected by the desired
sound level in the room and the type of use of the space.
Most jobs use a 2- x 4-ft grid T-Bar ceiling with 2- x 4-ft
or 2- x 2 ft tiles.
The first consideration in making a layout is to place the
terminals as economically as possible in the grid, which means
locating the terminals perpendicular to the main tees.
For example, an executive office uses low sound levels
but the furnishings generally absorb more sound so the al-
lowable cfm/unit is only slightly lower than other types of
rooms.
Main tees (the ones with hangers) are 4 ft on center (nor-
mally) and the cross tees are spaced 2 ft apart between the
mains to make up a 2- x 4-ft T-bar grid. Additional trim tees
may be used to divide the ceiling into a 2- x 2-ft grid.
The Moduline units use mounting brackets and hang from
(run perpendicular to) the main tees. While the units can be
installed anywhere between mains, the most common loca-
tion is on the center line of the cross tee (replaces the cross
tee). The next most common location is half way between
cross tees. See Fig. 15.
While less desirable, the units can be run parallel to the
main tees. Unless absolutely necessary the units should not
replace the main tee because this means the main tee must
be cut. A location halfway between the mains is common
and in this case additional hangers are required to the upper
plenum of the unit or to the cross tee near the unit.

Step 2 — Lay Out Terminals
LOCATE UNITS IN T-BAR GRID — In making a layout,
begin with a plan view of the ceiling. Normally, the ceiling
grid and the lighting is done first and the diffuser plan must
fit the layout.
The center of the room is the ideal location, but where
that space has been reserved for lighting, the Moduline dif-
fuser has enough flexibility to provide good distribution when
not centered in the room.
For a two-way blow diffuser, anywhere from the 1⁄4 point
1
to the ⁄4 point (wall to wall) is usually suitable. Outside of
the 1⁄4 points, a one-way blow diffuser may be needed. Use
two-way blow diffuser wherever possible and one-way blow
only when really necessary. (See Fig. 14.)

so they are blowing at each other, the minimum throw must
be checked. Do not put units closer together than minimum
allows. Down-drafts caused by going below minimum will
bother room occupants. (Fig. 16)

Moduline units can be placed fairly close to a wall or
partition. This is because the down-draft follows the wall
(stays close to the wall) and doesn’t bother the room occu-
pant. If furniture is placed against the wall near a Moduline
unit, it causes the air to be deflected causing drafts. The prob-
lem can often be solved by moving the furniture 6 in. or so
away from the wall.

NOTES:
1. Minimum air throw refers to the distance from the diffuser where the air ve-
locity is 150 fpm. In maximum air throw, this velocity has dropped to 50 rpm.
2. Data is based on an area with a 9-ft ceiling. For higher ceilings, values may
be reduced by one foot for each foot of height increase. For specific instal-
lations, minimum values can be reduced if properly qualified. Values are
dependent on cfm only and are not affected by duct pressure.

STAGGER SPACING — A frequently used layout method
is to stagger the units. This arrangement gives good cover-
age, solves the problem of drafts when units blow at each
other, and is low cost. It also gives good flexibility for future
partition changes. (Fig. 17.)
Step 3 — Consider Unit Combinations And Run-
Out Duct — When the preliminary office layout is com-
plete, the trunk or main duct can be laid on the floor plan.
We are now ready for positioning the units in the space ac-
cording to the load calculations and the design of the run-out
ducts.
The zone load calculation provides the cfm requirements
for each space. Using those requirements and the ceiling lay-
out, the unit location and run-out can be determined. Figure
19 shows a single Moduline unit located on the grid line in
the approximate center of the space. Figure 20 shows mul-
tiple units in an air series located in similar fashion.
RECOMMENDED UNIT COMBINATIONS — Tables 6-8
list the recommended combinations of Moduline terminals.
Each model (size) of Moduline terminal is shown in com-
binations of 2, 3, 4 and 5 plenum sizes. To illustrate the use
of the tables, consider the 37HS2 for a space requiring 550
cfm. Three units in air series will provide the capacity. (Note
that 550 cfm is below the max cfm limit of 660 shown in
Table 7.) Six combinations of 37HS2 units are available; all
will produce a good installation. However, some factors in-
fluence the choice:
If it is desirable to have common plenum sizes throughout
the space, the choice will be three 9 x 9-in. plenums.
Fig. 17 — Staggered Units
The lowest inlet velocities will result in the least variance
of discharge cfm among the 3 units on one control.
If this is a consideration, the choice would be three 11 x 11-
in. plenums.
MAXIMUM UNIT SPACING — Interior zones use less air,
as low as 0.4 to 0.6 cfm per sq ft. Using the large capacity
37HS4 unit at 250 to 350 cfm each may cause units to be too
widely separated. This results in poor coverage and poor air
distribution.
The lowest cost choice would be 9- x 9-in., 9- x 9-in., and
7- x 7-inches.
A good solution is to use a larger number of lower ca-
pacity 37HS2 units at 150 to 190 cfm each.
The maximum distance between units parallel to each other
(blowing at each other) can and should be fairly great, 25 to
45 ft. (See Tables 4 and 5.) But the maximum distance be-
tween the ends of the units in the same row must be more
limited for good coverage.
If the requirement of the space is for maximum cfm from
the unit combination, one of the larger plenum combinations
would be favored.
Conversely, a conservative design with small cfm per unit
can use the smaller plenum sizes.
The unit will effectively cover a strip whose width is 3 to
4 times the unit’s length. A 4-ft unit would therefore cover
an area whose width is 12 to 16 ft (maximum). See
Fig. 18.
The selection of plenum sizes will not affect the sound
level of the space; there is no measurable difference in the
recommended plenum combinations.
The high induction ratio of the Moduline diffuser keeps
total room air motion up to acceptable levels when the cfm
per sq ft is low.
NOTE: The listing of recommended air series combinations
does not indicate that one controller will always handle the
combination; in some cases, a second controller may be re-
quired. Refer to Determine Controller Location section,
page 37.
Table 9 provides an overall limitation on cfm in the inlet
collar of units in air series.

Table 9 — Maximum Cfm Through the Inlet Collar
of a Single Unit or of Units in Air Series
In general, units in an air series should not be of mixed
sizes (cfm capacities). If units of different capacities are used,
a controller must be applied for each size unit. For example,
an application for 800 cfm using different capacity units, as
shown in Fig. 21, is acceptable only with multiple controls.
This arrangement, although not preferred, can be used if care
is taken to use the necessary controllers. In this case, 3 con-
trollers are required. However, the best installation for an
800 cfm (nominal cfm total) would be one in which all the
units are the same size. (Fig. 22.) In this case, a single con-
troller can be used in the space.

FLEX DUCT IN AIR SERIES — Flexible duct is often used
minimum static pressure for multiple units is equal to 0.75
in. wg. Three lengths of flex duct at 4.5 ft equal 13.5 ft.
From Table 11, read with 8-in. duct diam, ⌬P is equal to
0.16 in. wg for each 10 ft. of flex duct. Therefore, for
13.5 ft, ⌬P is equal to 0.16 + 0.06 in. wg. The total ⌬P
downstream of run-out duct is equal to 0.75 + 0.22
= 0.97 in. wg.
in air series to connect Moduline units. In calculating pres-
sure requirements for units in air series, use the following
guidelines:
1. For close-coupled units (either continuous diffuser or units
in adjoining ceiling modules) where the flexible duct used
is 6 to 8 in. in length, add 0.1 in. wg to unit requirement
for minimum static pressure at control unit (Table 10).
3. Flexible duct, unsupported, tends to sag; this deflection
increases the pressure drop. Whenever possible, support
the duct with wire between connections. Sagging will in-
crease the ⌬P as much as 0.06 in. wg in a 10-ft length;
therefore rigid duct is recommended for lengths greater
than 5.5 ft.
4. The use of flexible duct in air series run-out when 90 de-
gree turns are required will also add ⌬P. Table 12 pro-
vides the additional pressure drop.
For example, consider three 37HS2 units in air series, in
adjoining modules, with 200 cfm per unit (Fig. 23). The
minimum static pressure for multiple units is equal to 0.75
in. wg (from Table 10). Adding 0.1 in. wg for flexible
duct, the total pressure downstream of run-out duct equals
0.85 in. wg.
2. For units in air series with extended flexible duct lengths,
add ⌬P from Table 11.
For example, refer to Fig. 25. The ‘‘straight’’ line ⌬P is
equal to 0.97 in. wg. If a bend is added to the run-out, the
total pressure drop becomes:
For example, consider four 37HS2 units in air series,
200 cfm per unit (Fig. 24). The units are in alternate
series modules; 8-in. duct; 9- x 9-in. plenum. The
0.97 + 0.16 = 1.13 in. wg.

GUIDELINES FOR CONTROLLER LOCATION
Step 4 — Determine Controller Location — The
final step in the terminal selection and layout process is to
decide where the controllers will be placed.
1. A master unit is mounted in the ceiling so that the air
intake is on the end of the unit opposite the end with the
control block and controller. (Fig. 26.)
2. A slave unit can receive air from either end of the unit.
Either end can be the inlet, assuming the inlet collar is
the same size as the connecting unit. At the same time, it
is good practice to place the ‘‘control’’ end of a slave unit
downstream as shown in Fig. 26. Should the slave unit be
later converted to a master unit, the unit would be in its
correct configuration for control installation.
The temperature control zones in the building will be de-
termined by the final partition layout. Before the final par-
tition layout has been determined, you must install enough
controllers to meet job requirement; the controllers can then
be relocated when the tenant layout is finished.
One of the main features of Moduline controls is that con-
troller locations can be changed quickly and easily at any
time.
3. The volume controller for a single unit should be located
on the end of the unit opposite the inlet end. (Fig. 27.)
Another main feature of Moduline controls is that more
than one unit can be controlled from a single thermostat. In
large interior zones the ‘‘master’’ unit (the one with the ther-
mostat) can be hooked up with control tubing to control sev-
eral ‘‘slaves’’. Table 13 shows the maximum number of units
that can be controlled by one controller.

4. The controller for units in an air series should be located
as shown in Fig. 28.
5. Volume controllers for units in an air series must be con-
nected from master to slave units in the same air series;
they must not be connected to units in a different air
series from that of the master unit. See examples shown
in Fig. 29 and 30.

6. To connect slave units with control tubing, use the end
bellows fittings only; do not attempt to use the 0.25 molded
connection on the filter. See Fig. 31 for examples of con-
trol tubing connections.

EXAMPLES OF GUIDELINE USE — Figure 29 shows an incorrect application. Figure 30 shows the corrected layout.
An incorrect application:
1. Room A & B units are on the same controller but on different duct
air series.
2. Room B calls for half the cfm as in units in room A — not feasible
because there is only one controller.
3. Units in room C are on different duct runs with one control — not
correct.
4. Units in room D are fine for one control, but controller should be
on second unit in air series.

THE MODULINEா VALVE
Figure 32 shows the Moduline terminal in cross section
with the valve in three positions — shutoff, partially open
and fully open. The valve opening varies with the pressure
of the bellows and the pressure of the plenum.
Figure 33 shows the internal components of the Moduline
unit.
Figure 34 shows the comparison of operating character-
istics between Carrier’s new Moduline unit (the 37HS) and
the previous design.
The Moduline Control Concept — The 37HS Modu-
line system-powered control concept is based on using the
building’s primary air supply as a source of energy. The dis-
tribution duct pressure provides energy to operate the con-
trols that modulate the flow of air through the unit. The heart
of this system is a bellows-operated unit air valve, which is
positioned by varying the pressure of the air in the bellows
relative to the supply air pressure in the duct. As the pres-
sure in the bellows approaches the pressure in the supply
duct, the unit air valve opening is reduced, finally closing
completely when the pressures are equal.

HIGH AND LOW PRESSURE — As primary air flows from
the unit plenum to the unit air valve and from there to the
conditioned space, it passes through a slotted plate called
the distribution baffle. The resistance of the baffle tends to
‘‘even out’’ the airflow through the unit. The baffle also cre-
ates a pressure differential which forms the basis of the sens-
ing side of the unit control.
Static pressure from above the baffle is called the high
pressure; static pressure below the baffle is the low pressure.
Figure 35 shows the pick-up tubes for the high and low pres-
sures, the differential pressure across the distribution baffle.

delivers maximum flow, as determined by the existing ple-
num pressure. Units normally operate between these ex-
tremes. In constant volume applications, the bellows pres-
sure is automatically adjusted in proportion to the plenum
pressure, providing a constant pre-set flow within the oper-
ating limits of the unit. In variable air volume op-
eration, the bellows pressure is further modulated to reduce
flow below the preset level as load requirements are satis-
fied. After passing through the valve, the primary air flows
down through the diffuser and out to the conditioned space.
CONTROL APPLICATIONS
Introduction — The Moduline terminal is offered with
a variety of cooling and heating control options which adapt
to many building applications. In this section, the various
control applications are described and the functions they in-
clude are identified. Each application has a function number
which corresponds to the function number shown in
Tables 14 and 15 in the Control Selection section, page 50.
Table 14 describes the functions; Table 15 shows the control
packages required for each function. The part numbers shown
are found on the Moduline air terminal price pages.
Detailed operating sequences for each control application
are found beginning on page 55.
System-Powered Controls
COMPONENTS OF THE SYSTEM-POWERED CON-
TROL SYSTEM — The 37HS system-powered control con-
sists of a set of custom design and manufacturer’s compo-
nents which provide airflow and temperature regulation of a
Moduline air terminal. These devices are interchangeable,
field-installed components which plug into the Moduline unit
without the use of tools.
Figure 36 shows the basic components: Control block (part
of the unit); filter/manifold; volume controller; and thermo-
stat. Figure 37 demonstrates the control air paths in a sec-
tional view of the control system. Note that the high pres-
sure and low pressure pick-ups of the unit are connected through
the control block to the filter and from there to the volume
controller and thermostat.
Fig. 35 — High and Low Pressure Pick-Up Tubes
BELLOWS PRESSURE — As the airflow through the unit
changes, the high and low pressures vary proportionately.
Comparing these 2 pressures, the unit volume controller pro-
vides a bellows pressure which in turn inflates the unit air
valve. Bellows pressure varies from near zero at full flow to
plenum or duct pressure at shutoff.
UNIT AIRFLOW DELIVERY — The relationship between
the bellows pressure and the plenum pressure determines the
unit air valve position, which controls unit airflow delivery.
When the pressures become nearly equal, the valve closes
and the unit shuts off. Conversely, as the bellows pressure
approaches zero, the valve opens completely and the unit

Both CV and VAV control packages include a plastic baffle
which is installed over the vertical leg of the center diffuser
and blocks the unused portion of the diffuser slots. See
Fig. 42. On VAV units, this prevents stray air currents from
influencing thermostat operation.
Other control components used in extended system-
powered electric and pneumatic control schemes are de-
scribed in the control applications which follow.

SYSTEM-POWERED APPLICATIONS
VAV Cooling With Warm-Up — (Function 4.) During an ex-
tended off period (overnight or during a holiday), the space
temperature will often be lowered. It is necessary to provide
heated air, temporarily, to reestablish comfortable tempera-
tures when occupancy resumes. Since the cooling thermo-
stats are satisfied at the reduced temperature, the units will
be shut off and the system will not be able to deliver warm
air. It is necessary, therefore, to provide a means of tempo-
rarily overriding the cooling thermostat. System-powered
warm-up is achieved by adding a warm-up switch to the VAV
cooling control arrangement (Fig. 45). The warm-up switch,
located inside the unit plenum, closes when it senses that
warm air is being supplied to the unit. This causes the bel-
lows to bleed, opening the unit. This condition is maintained
until cool air is returned to the system and the warm-up switch,
sensing cool supply air, returns control to the thermostat.
Where all Moduline units on a main duct-run are pro-
vided with thermostats for variable air volume control, it is
often difficult to get warm air to the end units on a run; with
the units in shutoff there is no significant flow which will
trigger the warm-up switch. Solutions to this situation are
found on page 58 in the Control Operating Sequences, VAV
Cooling with Warm-Up section.
Constant Volume (CV) Cooling — (Function No. 1.) This is
the most basic operating configuration. The control arrange-
ment consists of the volume controller and the filter. The unit
maintains a steady flow of primary air at the quantity set on
the volume controller over a range of supply pressures. Fig-
ure 43 shows constant volume controls mounted on the Modu-
line unit.
CV Heating (Function No. 1.) Constant volume heating con-
trols are the same as for CV cooling.
Variable Air Volume (VAV) Cooling — (Function No. 2 and
3.) The addition of a cooling thermostat to the constant vol-
ume controls allows the unit to vary the flow of primary air.
The unit will provide just enough airflow to satisfy the ther-
mostat setting at existing load conditions, up to the maxi-
mum flow set on the volume controller. The cooling thermo-
stat is direct acting (DA); thus the branch pressure output
from the thermostat increases as the space temperature in-
creases. Both diffuser-mounted and wall-mounted variations
are available. Figure 44 shows the system-powered VAV con-
trols (with diffuser thermostat) mounted on the unit.

SYSTEM-POWERED CONTROLS WITH ELECTRIC
INTERFACE
VAV Heating and Cooling With Changeover — (Function
5.) A VAV control arrangement for cooling/heating includes
a wall-mounted cooling/heating thermostat and provision to
change the thermostat from cooling to heating configuration
and back again. Figure 46 shows the control arrangement
with Moduline control for heating and cooling. The wall
thermostat is shown in Fig. 47. The system-powered heating
and cooling changeover uses an assembly consisting of 2
temperature-operated pneumatic switches located inside the
unit plenum and installed in-line between a cooling/heating
thermostat and the volume controller. These switches se-
quence the thermostat between the cooling and heating modes,
depending upon the temperature of the primary air supply.
VAV Cooling With Electric Warm-Up — (Function 6.) Elec-
tric warm-up uses an electric changeover valve to perform
the same function as system-powered warm-up; that is, to
provide heated air to reestablish comfortable temperatures
when occupancy resumes after an extended unoccupied pe-
riod. Since the cooling thermostats are satisfied at the re-
duced temperature, the units will be shut off and the system
will not be able to deliver warm air. It is necessary, there-
fore, to provide a means of temporarily overriding the cool-
ing thermostat.
The changeover control is an electrically operated, re-
motely controlled 3-way solenoid valve. The normally closed
port of the valve is capped. The valve usually is wired to
activate automatically with the supplemental heating switch;
however, it can also be manually activated. This option may
be used with either a unit-mounted or wall-mounted ther-
mostat. See Fig. 49.
VAV Heating — (Function 9.) Variable air volume heating
controls are the same as for VAV cooling except that only a
wall-mounted heating thermostat is offered (Fig. 48). The
heating thermostat is reverse acting (RA); thus the output
pressure decreases as the space temperature increases.
VAV Heating and Cooling With Electric Changeover — (Func-
tion 7.) A VAV control arrangement for cooling/heating in-
cludes a wall-mounted cooling/heating thermostat (Fig. 47)
and provision to change the thermostat from a cooling to
heating configuration and back again. System-powered cooling/
heating with electric changeover uses a 3-way electric so-
lenoid valve to switch control between the cooling and heat-
ing functions of a cooling/heating wall-mounted thermostat.
It is installed in-line between the volume controller of a CV
cooling control package and the thermostat. The valve may
be activated separately or interlocked with an electric heat-
ing system. See Fig. 50.

VAV Cooling With Electric Heat Interlock — (Function 8.)
In cases where VAV cooling terminals are used in conjunc-
tion with a separate heating system, such as perimeter heat-
ing, it is necessary to prevent the heating equipment from
turning on before the cooling system turns off. The addition
of a differential pressure switch to the unit controls makes
this possible. When the switch detects that control pressures
are approaching a shutoff condition (cooling load satisfied),
it closes a set of contacts. This allows the heating system to
operate as the heating thermostat dictates. See Fig. 51.
VAV Cooling With Fire Safety — (Functions 11 and 12.) Code
requirements may specify that air distribution terminals be
open or closed during a fire. For example, in tower construc-
tion there may be a requirement that if a fire begins on one
floor the terminals on the ‘‘fire floor’’ must be shut off to
prevent the addition of oxygen to the fire; terminals on the
floors above and below the fire floor must be wide open to
ventilate the space. These actions must occur regardless of
the space temperature and the position of the individual duct-
powered thermostats (unit mounted or wall mounted). This
application is effectively the same as the pneumatic warm-up
previously described. In this case, the pneumatic switch is
remotely operated by the fire master control to open the ad-
jacent floor units. Air supply to units on the ‘‘fire floor’’ is
interrupted by the use of duct fire-dampers.

SYSTEM-POWERED CONTROLS WITH PNEUMATIC IN-
TERFACE — The Moduline unit is designed as a stand-
alone, reactive air terminal in which the only source of en-
ergy for control purposes is the distribution air itself. There
are applications where separate system energy affords ad-
ditional control functions not possible with system power.
This section covers the use of 20 psi pneumatic energy and
standard and custom pneumatic devices for the application
of Moduline terminals in a conditioning system.
Fig. 52 — Pilot Valve for Pneumatic Sequenced
Cooling/Heating (Hot Water)
Pneumatic Sequenced Cooling/Heating (Hot Water) — (Func-
tion 10.) A 37HS VAV cooling system can be sequenced with
a hot water heating system through the use of a pilot valve
and a single proportional pneumatic thermostat (one-pipe or
2-pipe). See Fig. 52. By properly matching the operating pres-
sure ranges of the pilot valve and the field-supplied hot wa-
ter heat valve, the system can be configured to automatically
change over from cooling to heating and back again based
on the thermostat branch line pressure. The cooling and heat-
ing functions can be separated by a deadband or they can be
overlapped, depending upon pressure ranges selected. The
system may be designed to use either of the following
combinations:
• pilot valve (NO), hot water valve (NO) and thermostat (DA,
one- or 2-pipe)
• pilot valve (NC), hot water valve (NC), and thermostat (RA,
one- or 2-pipe)
Fig. 53 — VAV Control Arrangement with
Pneumatic Warm-Up Switch
VAV Cooling With Pneumatic Warm-Up — (Functions 11
and 12.) Pneumatic warm-up is accomplished by using a re-
motely operated pneumatic switch in place of the system-
powered warm-up switch. The pneumatic switch is installed
in-line between the volume controller and the thermostat (unit
mounted or wall mounted) and must be closed during
warm-up. It may be either normally open or normally closed,
but must match the pneumatic line pressure available. See
Fig. 53.

NOTE: The following applications require the control pack-
ages shown for Function 10, plus field-supplied thermostats
as described below.
Control Packages — In order to obtain a desired set
of control functions with Moduline air terminals, the correct
combination of control packages is required. Table 15 shows
the control packages that must be installed on a master unit
in order to achieve each function. The control package num-
bers correspond to the numbers on the 37HS Price Pages.
Night Set Back Heating — In the interest of energy conser-
vation, it may be desirable to raise a system’s cooling set
point during unoccupied time periods, whether they occur at
night or on weekends, holidays or other occasions. This ap-
plication requires a field-supplied dual set point DA pneu-
matic thermostat operating on a switched-main pressure supply.
The air supply must have 2 pressure levels available. A nor-
mally open pilot valve, controlled by the dual thermostat, is
also required. The thermostat set point is determined by the
supply pressure selected.
VAV Cooling/Separate System Heating —AModuline cool-
ing system may be interlocked with a separate hot water heat-
ing system and controlled by a common thermostat. This ap-
plication requires a field-supplied switched-main pressure
supply, a field-supplied dual set point DA/RA pneumatic ther-
mostat, a pneumatic switching relay, a pilot valve, and a pneu-
matic hot water valve. The summer mode (cooling) or the
winter mode (heating) is selected by switching the pneu-
matic supply system pressure between high or low pressure
ranges. The pneumatic thermostat operates in either the cool-
ing mode (DA) or the heating mode (RA) depending on the
supply pressure provided. The pneumatic switching relay re-
sponds to the pressure level by selecting either the pilot valve
and the Moduline cooling system or the hot water valve and
the hot water heating system, to match the thermostat mode.

The control valve is positioned by 2 diaphragms, one in
the low pressure chamber and one in the high pressure cham-
ber, and an adjustable spring. Pressure above the low pres-
sure diaphragm tends to open the control valve while the
high pressure diaphragm tends to hold it closed. The spring
tension balances these forces as the pressures vary and de-
termines the valve position. Rotating the adjusting dial on
the volume controller changes the spring tension and pro-
vides a means of establishing a flow set point.
CONTROL OPERATING SEQUENCES
System-Powered Controls
CV COOLING — See Fig. 54. Air from above the distri-
bution baffle (high pressure) enters the filter through the up-
per port of the control block, while the lower port receives
air from below the baffle (low pressure). These air streams
pass through separate filter chambers where particulate con-
taminants are removed.
The bellows pressure determined by the action of the con-
trol valve is communicated to the bellows. As the plenum
pressure changes, the control bellows valve is constantly re-
set to maintain a corresponding bellows pressure. The bel-
lows pressure chamber of the volume controller feeds air back
through the middle port and chamber of the filter (also called
a bellows pressure chamber), to the bellows connection on
the unit end panel, and into the bellows. The bellows pres-
sure re-sets the bellows on the unit air valve to provide a
constant airflow through the unit at the value selected on the
volume controller dial.
The low pressure air stream enters the low pressure cham-
ber of the volume controller from the top port of the filter,
while the bottom port of the filter feeds the high pressure
stream into the controller’s high pressure chamber.
Air from the high pressure chamber feeds into the bellows
pressure chamber of the controller through the fixed orifice.
Pressure in the bellows chamber of the volume controller is
determined by the relationship between the entering flow re-
sistance of the fixed orifice and the leaving flow resistance
of the control valve variable orifice.
As the control valve opens, its resistance decreases and
relatively more air is allowed to bleed, lowering the pressure
in the bellows chamber. As the control valve closes, the ef-
fect is reversed, increasing the bellows pressure. This is the
principle of control by matched orifices.
CV HEATING — Control arrangements and operation are
the same for CV heating as for CV cooling. The controls and
their operation are not affected by the temperature of the sup-
ply air.

VAV COOLING — In VAV operation, the filter and volume
controller perform the same functions as in CV operation.
The unit-mounted thermostat modifies control operation as
described below.
raising the pressure in the low pressure chamber of the con-
troller. As the low pressure rises, it gradually overcomes
the high pressure and opens the bellows pressure-chamber
bleed valve, lowering the bellows pressure proportionally.
This allows the unit damper to open and gradually increase
the flow of conditioned primary air into the space. See
Fig. 56.
This process continues until the flow of primary air is suf-
ficient to offset the load, or until the flow level set point of
the volume controller is reached (Fig. 57). At this point, the
thermostat bleed is closed and the unit is actually operating
in CV configuration. As the load is reduced, the process is
reversed and the unit flow decreases proportionally until the
unit is shut off when the thermostat is satisfied (bleed fully
open) (Fig. 58). In this manner, the unit normally delivers
only the actual amount of primary air needed to offset the
existing load.
Refer to Fig. 55. The air enters the low pressure chamber
of the volume controller through a fixed orifice. The low pres-
sure chamber is connected through a stub fitting and tube to
the unit-mounted thermostat. The thermostat senses room tem-
perature, closes its port as the temperature rises, and opens
it as the temperature falls. This makes it possible to control
the pressure in the low pressure chamber in response to the
space temperature. With normal space temperatures, and the
thermostat satisfied, the low pressure chamber valve is open
to the atmosphere through the thermostat. The rate at which
the valve bleeds air from the low pressure chamber is high
in relation to the rate at which air enters through the orifice,
and the pressure decreases in relation to the high pressure.
The high pressure force is stronger than the low pressure
force and the bleed valve of the bellows pressure chamber of
the controller is held closed. Since no air escapes, the bel-
lows pressure becomes equal to the high pressure in the ple-
num and the unit damper is closed, shutting off the unit.
When the wall-mounted DA thermostat is used in place of
the unit-mounted thermostat, variable air volume control op-
eration is the same as described above for the unit-mounted
thermostat. The only difference is that the wall-mounted ther-
mostat does not include the aspiration feature.
As the room load increases, the space temperature in-
creases. The thermostat senses this change and starts to close,

VAV COOLING WITH WARM-UP — Including the warm-
condition will continue as long as air in the duct system re-

the supply air returns to normal cooling temperatures, the
switch opens and control is returned to the cooling thermo-
stat. See Fig. 60.
fup switch in the volume controller/thermostat circuit al-
lows the unit to deliver air when there is warm air in the duct
system, even though the cooling thermostat is satisfied by
cool space temperature.
The warm-up switch is actually a temperature controlled
pneumatic valve which is normally open at primary air sup-
ply temperatures below approximately 64 F. It is installed
in-line between the volume controller and the thermostat.
When warm primary air is supplied to restore comfort con-
ditions in the space after an extended shutdown, the warm-up
switch reacts by closing (Fig. 59). This removes the ther-
mostat from the control circuit and prevents air from bleed-
ing from the low pressure chamber of the volume controller.
This condition simulates a thermostat calling for maximum
primary-air delivery. The unit is now, in effect, a CV unit
and operates at the set point of the volume controller. This
Because the units are shut off, it may be difficult to es-
tablish the flow of warm air to initiate warm-up. One method
of overcoming this problem is to install one or more CV units
near the end of the duct run. Where possible, a constant vol-
ume unit is located in space not continuously occupied such
as halls, aisles, or storage rooms. It can also be helpful in an
area benefiting from continuous circulation. By locating such
a unit at the end of a duct run, the heated air for morning
warm-up is assured of reaching the VAV units. See Fig. 61.

making control air available to each valve. The valve for the
DA cooling thermostat is normally open as long as there is
cool supply air in the plenum (Fig. 62). The other valve is
normally open when warm air is being supplied, matching
the RA heating thermostat (Fig. 63). Each valve is con-
nected to the corresponding thermostat by a separate tube.
In the cooling mode (Fig. 64), the cooling valve is open,
activating the cooling thermostat, while the heating thermo-
stat is isolated by the closed heating valve. On changeover
from cooling to heating, the cooling valve closes and the
heating valve opens, shifting control to the heating thermo-
stat (Fig. 65).
POWERED CHANGEOVER — This application uses a CV
control package along with a wall-mounted thermostat pack-
age (cooling/heating) and a system-powered changeover con-
trol package. The cooling thermostat is direct acting (DA)
while the heating thermostat is reverse acting (RA).
Operation is very similar to system-powered warm-up. The
changeover switch assembly is field installed in the unit ple-
num and is piped in-line between the volume controller and
the thermostat. It consists of 2 thermally operated pneumatic
valves, one for each thermostat. The tube from the volume
controller is connected by a ‘T’ into the valve assembly,

VAV HEATING — It is suggested that the following section
be reviewed before reading this section: VAV Cooling,
page 56.
Combining a diffuser-mounted constant volume control pack-
age with a wall-mounted thermostat package (heating only)
allows the use of Moduline units in VAV heating
applications.
The operation of the heating only thermostat is opposite
to that of the cooling only thermostat in that the heating only
thermostat is reverse acting (RA) instead of direct acting (DA).
The thermostat’s bleed valve is open when the room tem-
perature is above set point. It bleeds air from the low
pressure chamber of the volume controller, lowering its pres-
sure, and allowing the relatively stronger pressure of the air
in the controller’s high pressure chamber to hold closed the
bleed from the controller’s bellows pressure chamber. The
bellows pressure becomes equal to the high pressure in the
unit plenum, closing the unit damper and shutting off the
unit discharge. See Fig. 66.
As the room temperature falls, the thermostat bleed closes
proportionally. This raises the pressure of the air in the low
pressure chamber of the controller, forcing the bellows pres-
sure chamber bleed open and lowering the bellows pressure
proportionally. The damper opens and the unit delivers air to
meet the existing demand in the conditioned space.

unit, if such is provided. Thus, when heated air be-
gins to flow in the distribution duct, the bellows is bled down
by the action of the electric warm-up valve and heated air
can flow into the conditioned space (Fig. 68).
VAV COOLING WITH ELECTRIC WARM-UP — Another
approach to warm-up is the addition of an electric warm-up
valve; the operating principle is the same as system powered
warm-up. A building with its conditioning system shut down
during unoccupied hours must be brought close to operating
temperature before the occupants arrive. Heated air supplied
to the space from a central unit can quickly restore operating
conditions. But because the VAV thermostat has closed the
unit, the result of the lack of load, the system powered con-
trol needs to be overcome.
An electric warm-up valve located on the Moduline unit
between the volume controller and the thermostat is wired to
the primary air source machine room. The valve can be
activated by a simple manual or timer switch or it can
In the cooling mode (Fig. 69), air flows freely between
the volume controller and the thermostat and control func-
tion is not affected. When warm-up is activated, the nor-
mally open port closes and the control circuit is closed after
the volume controller. As with system powered warm-up,
this causes the pressure to rise in the low pressure chamber
of the volume controller and opens the valve that bleeds air
from the bellows pressure chamber. The increased bleed rate
lowers the bellows pressure, opening the unit damper, and
allowing the flow of primary air to increase up to the con-
stant volume set point of the volume controller.

VAV HEATING AND COOLING WITH ELECTRIC
CHANGEOVER — This application uses a CV control pack-
age along with a wall-mounted thermostat package (cooling/
heating) and an electric changeover package. The change-
over valve permits control of the unit to be switched between
the cooling and heating sides of a cooling/heating thermo-
stat. It is field-installed in-line between the volume control-
ler and the thermostat.
controller and the cooling side of the thermostat. Because
the NC port is closed, the heating side of the thermostat is
locked out of the system. Upon changeover to heating, the
solenoid valve is energized. The NO port closes and the NC
port is opened, and the control circuit switches to the heat-
ing side of the thermostat. Typically, the solenoid valve is
wired to activate automatically when the heating system is
turned on, although it may be operated by a simple on/off
switch.
Refer to Fig. 70-73. In cooling operation, the NO port of
the valve opens the control circuit between the volume

VAV COOLING WITH ELECTRIC HEAT INTERLOCK —
A conditioned space may contain a Moduline system for cool-
ing and a separate heating system such as baseboard electric
or hot water or an overhead fan coil. The electric interlock
switch enables the cooling and heating systems to operate as
the load dictates with overlap.
The electric interlock switch compares the bellows pres-
sure with the low pressure, as a practical means of detecting
the operating level of the unit. When the unit is delivering,
the bellows pressure is significantly lower than the low pres-
sure and the electric interlock (differential pressure) switch
is open, interrupting the power supply to the heating system.
When the unit is shut off, the pressures are approximately
equal and the switch closes, allowing the heating system to
be energized. It is field installed with the low pressure port
piped to the auxiliary bellows pressure stub of the filter. (See
Fig. 74.) The high pressure port is connected by a ‘‘T’’ into
the line between the volume regulator and the thermostat.

System-Powered Controls with Pneumatic
Interface
PNEUMATIC SEQUENCED HEATING/COOLING (HOT
WATER) — By using a 20 psi pneumatic source, one ther-
mostat can control both heating and Moduline cooling in the
conditioned space. The pneumatic circuit is interfaced with
the system-powered circuit by use of a pilot valve. In cool-
ing, the Moduline airflow is controlled by the duct-powered
volume controller just as in all system-powered control. As
the schematic diagram shows, a DA pneumatic wall ther-
mostat working through the pilot valve, replacing the system-
powered thermostat, modulates the pilot valve and thus the
volume controller low side pressure.
Figure 75 shows the piping diagram. Figure 76 shows the
sequence diagram for a direct acting thermostat with a nor-
mally open pilot valve. With the system shut down and the
space temperature low, at start-up the thermostat branch pres-
sure is low, and the normally open water valve (or other heat-
ing means) is open. As the space temperature rises, the branch
pressure rises, modulating the water valve to a closed po-
sition. The pilot valve is normally open, with set point above
water valve spring rate, thus maintaining a low pressure in
the low side of the volume controller, closing the bleed valve
in the controller and raising the bellows pressure to the duct
pressure level; this results in unit shutoff.
Fig. 76 — Sequence Diagram — DA Thermostat
If the space temperature continues to rise, the NO pilot
valve will modulate toward closed, raising the low side pres-
sure, opening the bleed, reducing the bellows pressure, and
opening the Moduline unit air valve. The airflow will rise
until the volume controller setting is reached.
Note that the spring rates of the hot water valve and the
pilot valve must be properly matched to accomplish the ac-
tion described above.
A heating/cooling sequence can also be accomplished with
a reverse acting circuit (Fig. 77 and 78). At start-up, the tem-
perature is low, the branch pressure is high, and normally
closed water valve is wide open. As the space temperature
rises, the branch pressure falls and the water valve closes,
stopping the heating supply. The pilot valve is NC and thus
at branch pressures above its setting will open, volume con-
troller low pressure will be reduced, the bellows pressure
will rise and the unit will shut off.

VAV COOLING WITH PNEUMATIC WARM-UP OR FIRE
SAFETY SWITCH — Through the use of a specific pneu-
matic switch, the functions of pneumatic warm-up and fire
safety can be added to Moduline installations.
Pneumatic warm-up offers an opportunity to open all Modu-
line units in an area to allow immediate hot air distribution
prior to the building occupancy. Through the use of a sepa-
rate pneumatic signal, the pneumatic warm-up switch, placed
in-line between the Moduline volume controller and the dif-
fuser or wall system powered thermostat, closes the low pres-
sure bleed in the thermostat line (in the same way as the
system powered warm-up switch). This raises the low side
pressure, opens the volume controller bleed and lowers the
bellows pressure, allowing airflow from the Moduline ter-
minal at the setting of the volume controller.
The pneumatic warm-up switch can be piped either NO or
NC. Figure 79 shows an NO arrangement. The switch is non-
adjustable and preset to close at 8 ± 2.0 psig. Thus a signal
pressure in excess of 10 psi will cause the switch to close.
A pneumatic warm-up switch is required for each Moduline
unit but only one pneumatic signal valve is required for mul-
tiple Moduline units. Figure 80 shows the basic piping.
Fig. 79 — Piping Diagram, NO Configuration,
Pneumatic Warm-Up
The field-supplied 3-way pneumatic valve is supplied with
main pressure and is closed in cooling operation. When heat
for warm-up is required, a signal sent from the heat source
opens the pneumatic valve, supplying main pressure to the
Moduline pneumatic warm-up switches. When the heat is
discontinued, the pneumatic valve opens and the switches
return to an open configuration.
Note that the pneumatic warm-up switch is a nonbleed
device. The pneumatic valve should therefore be a 3-way
device, arranged to bleed out the pneumatic circuit down-
stream of the valve when the valve is closed.
The pneumatic warm-up switch can be arranged as an NC
device; Fig. 81 gives the piping connections.
For fire safety, the same switch is added to the Moduline
control circuit as a normally open fire safety switch as shown
in Fig. 82A. The fire safety switch on each Moduline ter-
minal is connected to a pneumatic distribution circuit on each
floor of the building. A3-way valve is connected to the switches
and to the fire master control as shown in Fig. 83.
The operation is identical to the pneumatic warm-up cir-
cuit. At the onset of a fire, the fire master control opens the
Moduline units on the non-fire floors by closing the Modu-
line fire safety switches, raising the controller low side pres-
sure and bleeding the bellows. The 3-way pneumatic valve
on each floor supplies pneumatic pressure in excess of the
set point of 8.0 ± 2 psig. On the fire floor where air is to be
shut down, the distribution system uses a duct fire-damper
to stop the air, and the fire safety switch position is not the
determining factor in the Moduline operation.
Fig. 80 — Basic Piping for Pneumatic
Warm-Up Switch
If a normally closed fire switch is required, see piping dia-
gram shown in Fig. 82B. In this case, pneumatic pressure is
maintained on the fire switch when the system fan is acti-
vated. Loss of pneumatic pressure closes the fire switch, bleed-
ing the bellows.

AIRFLOW ADJUSTMENT
Each 37HS volume controller is equipped with a maxi-
mum cfm lever for setting the required unit airflow in the
field. The lever is located at the bottom of the controller. See
Fig. 84. The controller has a star wheel located at the top of
the controller for setting the minimum airflow. The star wheel
is also shown in Fig. 84.
Maximum Airflow (Cfm) Adjustment — The 37HS
maximum airflow adjustment lever is common to all sizes
and is divided into levels of percent cfm. Table 16 shows the
unit airflow that will be obtained by each lever setting for
each unit size.

The maximum cfm is the unit airflow obtained when the
thermostat is calling for full cooling in a VAV system; it is
the design cfm for the space conditioned by the unit or units
regulated by one controller.
To set maximum cfm with zero minimum cfm:
1. Set diffuser or wall thermostat for maximum cooling.
2. Turn the minimum cfm star wheel counterlockwise until
the internal stop is reached. Do not attempt to override
stop. (Minimum cfm has been set at zero, and the unit
will turn off when required.)
3. Adjust maximum cfm lever to desired percent cfm.
Fig. 82B — NC Configuration for Fire Safety
Minimum Airflow (Cfm) Adjustment — Some ap-
plications require both a design maximum cfm and a mini-
mum cfm. The 37HS controller can be set to provide both
airflow requirements.
To set maximum and minimum cfm:
1. Set diffuser or wall thermostat for maximum cooling.
2. Turn the minimum cfm star wheel counterclockwise un-
til the internal stop is reached. Do not attempt to override
stop.
3. Shut off unit by adjusting thermostat to zero cool-
ing, or disconnect tube from volume controller to
thermostat.
4. Place a standard airflow hood against the outlet of the
master unit and slowly turn the minimum cfm star wheel
on the controller clockwise until the desired minimum cfm
is reached.
5. Return the thermostat to the desired setting and/or recon-
nect tube between volume controller and thermostat.

Variation in Maximum Airflow — As explained in
the Terminal Selection and Layout section, Moduline units
in air series can be controlled individually with a volume
controller at each unit, or with a master/slave combination,
where one controller is used with multiple units. All
the units on one controller must be of the same model
(capacity).
In master/slave combinations, some variation in maxi-
mum airflow among the terminals in air series will occur.
The variation in maximum airflow is a function of the unit
plenum size, the model, and the number of units in an air
series on one controller. Table 17 shows the expected varia-
tion from the unit with the smallest airflow to the unit with
the largest airflow.

A variety of diffuser assemblies are available for the Modu-
line unit. Tables 18 - 20 show the standard diffusers avail-
able, which can be ordered directly from the price pages.
Tables 21-23 show the optional diffusers, which can be pro-
vided by quote control.
The difference in standard 37HS diffusers and optional 37A
diffusers is demonstrated in Fig. 87. The slot opening in the
37HS is larger than that of the 37A, reducing the net pres-
sure required from the unit and somewhat reducing the throw.
Note that the dimensions of the diffuser shown in Fig. 87
are useful when matching units or 35BD boot diffusers in
the ceiling. Certified dimension drawings are available for
these diffusers and the other optional diffusers shown in
Tables 21-23.
AIR DISTRIBUTION
Linear slot diffusers are an integral part of the Moduline
unit. They provide excellent air distribution for the condi-
tioned space. The diffuser configuration is designed to in-
duce room air, creating continuous air motion for occupants
of the room and reasonably consistent temperatures from floor
to ceiling.
Figure 85 shows how cool primary air discharged at the
ceiling line induces room air toward the diffuser. The cool
air mixes with the room air, creating room air motion and
raising the temperature of the air descending upon the room
occupants. Figure 86 provides a typical room air distribution
pattern for 2-way blow and one-way blow Moduline units.
The upper number on the distribution pattern is the mixture
temperature; the lower number is the air velocity in ft/min.

The optimum air throw values given in the table are dis-
tances from the unit centerline to the outside wall or nearest
obstruction (wall, light fixture or opposing air stream).
Throw for Standard Diffusers — Tables 24 and 25
provide the suggested minimum and maximum coverages
the Moduline® air terminals can handle in a typical instal-
lation while maintaining the desired room conditions.

NOTES:
1. Minimum air throw refers to the distance from the diffuser where the air ve-
locity is 150 fpm. In maximum air throw, this velocity has dropped to 50 fpm.
2. Data is based on an area with a 9-ft ceiling. For higher ceilings, values may
be reduced by one foot for each foot of height increase. For specific instal-
lations, minimum values can be reduced if properly qualified. Values are
dependent on cfm only and are not affected by duct pressure.
