  • Page 2: Troubleshooting Tips

    IMPORTANT • Excel 10 VAV II Controllers must have an air flow pickup table downloaded to ensure accurate balancing. Configuration tools do not automatically install the flow pickup table defined for the controller.
  • Page 3: Disconnecting Airflow Pickup Tubes

    Disconnecting Airflow Pickup Tubes Anytime the airflow pickup tubes are disconnected from the controller, the controller should be powered down. There is no chance of damage to the controller, but if the controller is exposed to unusually high static pressure (< 5.0 in. w.c.) when one pickup tube is connected there is a very slight possibility that the controllers sensing process will stop operating.

    Table 1. Setpoint Guidelines. Airflow Setpoint Rule Maximum Maximum airflow setpoint cannot result in a duct velocity greater than 3500 fpm Maximum airflow setpoint must be greater than the Minimum airflow setpoint Minimum Minimum airflow setpoint cannot be set to zero for balancing Minimum airflow setpoint should be less than or equal to 80% of the Maximum...
  • Page 5: Airflow Sensor

    Minimum Airflow Setpoint too Close to Maximum Airflow Setpoint Decrease the value of the Minimum Airflow setpoint and repeat the minimum airflow balance procedure. Airflow Velocity Less Than 200 fpm Check the velocity at the minimum airflow setpoint. If the minimum airflow velocity is at or below 200 fpm, try increasing the minimum airflow setpoint.
