Part One

User Basics

This section is designed to provide a brief but thorough overview of the product installed. These few pages explain the purpose (The Instrument) and the operation (Useful user information,

Operator panel, Alarms) of the product. Technical product information is available in Part Two of

the manual.

The Instrument

The Model FHM10 Fume Hood Monitor is able to measure and report air flow in fume hoods and other exhaust devices such as snorkels and canopies. The Model FHC50 Fume Hood Controller adds the ability to control airflow to maintain safety and energy efficiency.

There are two main monitor and control strategies that can be used with the Model FHC50 Fume

Hood Controller:

Face Velocity

One of the key components of air flow in a fume hood is adequate face velocity, which is needed to protect fume hood users. An adequate face velocity will help contain contaminants inside of the fume hood.

A fume hood exhaust system produces a negative pressure differential between the fume hood’s interior and the laboratory, causing air to be drawn into the hood. The speed of air entering the fume hood is called the face velocity. The Model FHC50 Fume Hood Controller can be configured to continuously monitor fume hood face velocity by measuring the air velocity across a sensor mounted in the sidewall of the hood. The sensor and opening in the fume hood are driven by the same pressure differential so the velocity across each is related.

As an alternative to this sidewall sensing methodology, the Model FHC50 can determine average fume hood face velocity by measuring the fume hood exhaust flow and sash area. When measuring face velocity in this fashion, the Model FHC50 must use a venturi valve with feedback to control and measure the exhaust volume. A sash sensor then measures the vertical opening of the fume hood sash. As an option, the Model FHC50 can use a sidewall sensor to monitor or trim the face velocity when calculated from sash position and exhaust flow rate.

The Model FHC50 controller modulates the exhaust to maintain an adequate face velocity at all times through the fume hood.

Exhaust Flow

Certain devices such as laminar flow benches, canopy hoods and snorkels need to exhaust a certain amount of air to function properly. For these applications, the Model FHC50 can be configured to measure and control the air flow to a constant volume using a venturi valve or a flow station with damper.

User Basics 3

Useful User Information

The controller has a green light (normal operation) and red alarm light (low and high alarms). The green light is on when the face velocity and/or exhaust flow is adequate. The red alarm light comes on when the face velocity and/or exhaust flow drops below a safe level, or exceeds a safe level. The display provides additional information depending on the configuration of the unit.

Some of the available information includes continuously indicating the actual face velocity, exhaust flow, alarms, and controller status.

Operator Panel

The Model FHM10 Fume Hood Monitor and Model FHC50 Fume Hood Controller are easy to use. All the information you need to know about face velocity and flow rates is displayed on the Display

Interface Module (DIM). In addition, all configuration, control, and calibration programming is accessible using the soft keys and menus. Specific details about the Model FHC50 controller front panel display and controls are described on the following pages. The front panel, shown

in Figure 1 identifies the important

features: display, keys and lights.

LED Lights

Green Light

The green light (NORMAL) is on when the face velocity and/or exhaust flow is adequate. This light indicates the fume hood is operating safely. If a set point cannot be maintained or an alarm limit has been reached, the green light turns off and the red alarm light turns on.

Figure 1

Yellow Light

The yellow light is on to indicate that the Model FHC50 controller is muted or in setback mode. The LCD display will read “ Setback ” or “ Mute ” at the top of the screen to indicate the meaning of the yellow light. Note that when in Setback mode, the Model FHC50 will also turn on the Red or Green light.

Red Light

The red light is on to indicate an alarm or emergency status. If the red light flashes, then the Model FHC50 is in emergency mode. If the red light is continually lit, then the Model

FHC50 is in an alarm mode. The display screen will also indicate the type of alarm or an emergency message.

4 Part One

Display Screen

The LCD display is highly configurable and can display various critical information including actual face velocity, exhaust flow rate, alarm status, menu options, and error messages. In addition, the LCD display shows various soft key labels that enable user interaction and programming the unit.

When programming the unit, the display will update soft keys and show menus, menu items, and current value of the menu item, depending on the specific programming function being performed.

User Soft Keys (Normal Operating Mode)

There are four soft keys on the front of the unit just below the LCD screen that can be used to interact with the unit.

W A R N I N G

Pressing these keys will change how the unit functions. Please thoroughly review the manual before using these keys or changing menu items.

NOTE

The unit can be programmed so that the User Soft Keys will not be displayed

during normal operating mode (see Software Programming section, menu item

DISPL SOFTKEYS ).

The list below contains soft keys that will appear at the display screen during normal operating mode, depending on the state of the unit.

MENU Provides access to the menus when in the normal operating mode (see

Software Programming section).

RESET Resets the alarm light, alarm contacts, and audible alarm when in a latched or non-automatic reset mode. If an alarm is reset before alarm conditions exited, the monitor or controller will reset the alarm but the alarm mode will be

re-entered after the ALARM DELAY .

Resets the emergency function after the emergency key has been pressed

(see EMERGENCY key).

Clears any displayed error messages.

SETBACK

NORMAL

The SETBACK soft key activates the setback or second control set point. In setback mode, the controller controls at the setback set point, the display indicates SETBACK , and the yellow light turns on.

The NORMAL soft key will appear if the unit has been placed into Setback mode. If the NORMAL soft key is pressed, the controller returns to normal control set point.

Quick Keys

There are two Quick Keys on the front of the unit just below the Soft Keys. The Quick-Keys function as left and right arrows or to increase/decrease values.

User Basics 5

Operator Keys

There are two dedicated keys on the front of the unit that each provides a critical function.

MUTE key

The MUTE key silences an audible alarm. The alarm remains silent until the

MUTE TIMEOUT value has been reached or the unit returns to control set point.

Pressing the MUTE key twice will permanently mute the alarm.

NOTE

You can program the unit so that the audible alarm cannot be muted (see menu item

MUTE_BUTTON ).

EMERGENCY key

The EMERGENCY key puts the controller into emergency mode. The controller maximizes the exhaust flow and face velocity (if applicable) by modulating the damper or venturi valve to full open position.

Pressing the EMERGENCY key will cause ” EMERGENCY ” to appear on the display, the red alarm light to flash on and off, and the audible alarm to beep intermittently. To return to control mode press the EMERGENCY key or the

RESET key.

NOTE

The Model FHM10 monitor and FHC50 controller can be configured so the audible alarm is silenced during emergency mode. See menu item

EMERGENCY_AUD .

USB Port

There is a USB port at the bottom of the case. This USB port can be used with TSI ® ’s Fume

Hood Configuration Software.

Alarms

The Model FHC50 controller has visual (red light) and audible alarms to inform you of changing fume hood conditions. The alarm levels (set points) are determined by facilities staff, which could be Engineering, Industrial Hygiene, or a facilities group depending on how the safety staff is organized.

The alarms, audible and visual, will activate whenever the preset alarm level is reached. The alarms will activate if the face velocity is low or inadequate, high or too great, or when the exhaust airflow is too low or too high (need optional flow device installed). When the fume hood is operating safely, no alarms will sound.

Example : The low alarm is preset to activate when the face velocity falls below 60 ft/min. When the face velocity drops below 60 ft/min, the audible and visual alarms activate. The alarms turn off (when set to unlatched) when the unit returns to the safe range, which is defined as 20 ft/min greater than alarm set point (80 ft/min).

6 Part One

Visual Alarm

The red light on the front of the unit indicates an alarm condition. The red light is on for all alarm conditions, low alarms, high alarms, and emergency. The light is on continuously in a low or high alarm condition, and flashes in an emergency condition.

Audible Alarm —EMERGENCY key

When the EMERGENCY key is pressed, the audible alarm beeps intermittently until the

EMERGENCY or RESET key is pressed terminating the emergency alarm. Pressing the MUTE key will silence the emergency alarm, although the red LED will continue to flash (if enabled - see

menu item MUTE_KEY ).

NOTE

The Model FHM10 monitor and FHC50 controller can be configured so the audible alarm is silenced during emergency mode. See menu item

EMERGENCY_AUD .

Audible Alarms —All Except Emergency

The audible alarm is continuously on in all low and high alarm conditions. The audible alarm can be silenced by pressing the MUTE

key (if enabled - see menu item MUTE_BUTTON ).

If the audible alarm has been muted, the alarm is silenced for a configurable period of time

(see menu item MUTE TIMEOUT ) or the measurement returns to the safe range. The safe

range is 20 ft/min (50 cfm) above the low alarm set point and 20 ft/min (50 cfm) below the high alarm set point.

The audible and visual alarms can be programmed to either automatically turn off when the unit returns to the safe range or to stay in alarm until the RESET key is pressed (See menu item

ALARM_RESET ).

User Basics 7


8 Part One

Part Two

Technical Section

The Fume Hood Controller is ready to use after being properly installed and calibrated. The calibration procedure should take

less than 15 minutes. Figure 2 shows the Digital Interface Module

(DIM) which is programmed with a default configuration that can be easily modified to fit your application.

The technical section is separated into six parts that cover all aspects of the unit. Each section is written as independently as possible to minimize flipping back and forth through the manual for an answer.

The Software Programming

section explains the programming keys on the DIM. In addition, the programming sequence is described, which is the same regardless of the menu item being changed. At the end of this section is an example of how to program the DIM.

The Hardware Configurations section covers the different ways

the DIM can be configured to accommodate the hardware and sequence of operation that is required. This section explains how to compare the installed hardware to the necessary settings that are needed.

Figure 2

The Menu and Menu Items section lists all of the software items available to program and

change. The items are grouped by menu which means all set points are in one menu, control signal items in another, etc. The menu items and all related information is provided including; programming name, description of menu item, range of programmable values, and how the unit shipped from the factory (default value).

The Calibration

section describes the required procedure to calibrate the controller. This section explains how to compare the controller’s velocity reading to a portable thermal anemometer and then adjust the zero and span to establish an accurate calibration. This section also describes how to zero a TSI ® flow station transducer (if installed).

The Maintenance and Repair Part section covers all routine maintenance of equipment, along

with a list of repair parts.

The Troubleshooting section is split into two areas: mechanical operation of the unit and system

performance. Many external variables will affect how the unit functions so it is critical to first determine if the system is having mechanical problems —i.e., no display on unit, alarms do not function, damper does not modulate, etc. If no mechanical problems exist, look for performance problems (i.e., does not seem to read correctly, display fluctuates, etc.). The first step is to determine that the system is mechanically operating correctly, followed by modifying the configuration to eliminate the performance problems.

Technical Section 9

Software Programming

Programming the Model FHC50 controller is quick and easy if the programming keys are understood, and the proper keystroke procedure is followed. The programming keys are defined first, followed by the required keystroke procedure. At the end of this section is a programming example.

NOTE

It is important to note that the unit is always operating (except when checking the

CONTROL OUTPUT ) when programming. When a menu item value is changed,

the new value takes effect immediately after saving the change, not when the unit returns to normal operating mode.

This section covers programming the instrument through the keypad and display. If

programming through network communications (see Appendix B ), use the host

computer’s procedure. The changes take place immediately upon saving data in the instrument.

Programming Keys

The four vertical programming soft

keys (refer to Figure 3) are used to

program or configure the unit to fit your particular application. Programming the instrument will change how the unit functions, so thoroughly review the menu items to be changed.

Figure 3

Menu Soft Keys

The list below contains soft keys that will appear while in the menu structures.

ESC The ESC soft key is used to escape from the current menu or menu item, and will also cancel any change that is currently being made to an item value.

3. Saves data.

10 Part Two

Quick Keys

There are two dedicated adjustment keys on the front of the unit (refer to Figure 3) that become

active when accessing a menu item. These keys change choices of a menu item while that item is highlighted on the display. The left adjustment key will decrease the value of an item, and the right adjustment key will increase the value of an item. If there are no choices available for a particular menu item, or if that menu item is for reference only, the adjustment keys will have no effect.

The item data will be automatically saved when either of the  /  soft keys are used to highlight a different menu item, or when the

 ( ENTER ) soft key is pressed. Pressing the ESC soft key while the menu item is still highlighted will discard changes and restore the item to its last saved value.

NOTE

When programming a numerical menu item, continuously pressing a quick adjustment key will scroll through the values faster than if they key is repeatedly pressed and released.

Hardware Configurations

The Model FHM10 Fume Hood Monitor can be field-configured to monitor face velocity or flow rates, while the Model FHC50 Fume Hood Controller can be field-configured to control face velocity or flow rates. These models feature a configuration wizard to easily select the desired monitor or controller configuration.

The following tables will assist in determining which configuration will need to be programmed into the controller for proper operation. You can also use the tables as a check to ensure that the monitor or controller has been properly configured after changing default settings from the configuration wizard.

Please note that in some applications, there may be a flow sensing device present at the fume hood exhaust (flow station, venturi valve linear feedback, etc.), but which is not used by the fume hood controller. The flow sensing information may be intended only to be received by a room controller for flow tracking purposes. This will not affect the operation of the fume hood controller provided it is configured correctly.

Menu and Menu Items

The Model FHM10 monitor and Model FHC50 controller are very versatile devices which can be configured to meet your specific application. This section lists all of the menu items available to program and change (except diagnostics menu). Changing items is accomplished by using the keypad or through communications with the Building Automation System. If you are unfamiliar

with the keystroke procedure please see Software Programming section

for a detailed explanation. This section provides the following information:

•

Complete list of menus and all menu items.

•

Gives the menu or programming name.

•

Defines each men u item’s function; what it does, how it does it, etc.

•

Gives the range of values that can be programmed.

•

Gives default item value (how it shipped from factory).

The menus covered in this section are divided into groups of related items to ease programming. As an example all set points are in one menu, alarm information in another, etc. The manual follows the menus as programmed in the controller. The menu items are

always grouped by menu and then listed in menu item order, not alphabetical order. Figure 4

shows the Model FHM10 monitor menu items, while Figure 5 shows the Model FHC50

controller menu items.

The MIN CONTROL POS item is used to set the minimum damper position. The minimum damper position allows the setting of a minimum airflow through the fume hood . When the fume hood exhaust volume needed to maintain the set face velocity is less than the set minimum damper position (typically sash closed), the damper maintains the minimum damper position. Closing the sash further will result in an increase in the face velocity above the control set point which may cause a high alarm.

The MAX CONTROL POS item is used to set the maximum damper position. The maximum damper position allows the setting of a maximum airflow through the fume hood. When the fume hood exhaust volume needed to maintain the set face velocity is greater than the set maximum damper position

(typically sash open), the damper maintains the maximum damper position. Opening the sash further will result in a decrease in face velocity, which may cause a low alarm indicating an unsafe hood condition exists.

The MIN FLOW item sets the minimum flow set point when the

NORMAL CONTROL MODE is set to VelSidewall, VelSashPos or VelSide+Sash. When the fume hood exhaust reaches the minimum flow set point, as the fume hood sash is lowered, the controller will modulate the hood exhaust to maintain this minimum flow.

WARNING

The Model FHC50 may not maintain the fume hoods average face velocity at the SETPOINT item value when a

MINIMUM FLOW has been programmed. The average face velocity may exceed the SETPOINT item value, resulting in a

HIGH ALARM condition.

NOTE

The MINIMUM FLOW set point must be 50 cfm less than the

SETPOINT/ALARM CONSTRAINTS

There are a number of constraints that prohibit you from incorrectly adjusting the set points. These are as follows:

1. The control SETPOINT and SETBACK set point have a lower limit of 60 ft/min. This is because generally accepted lab practices indicate that fume hood containment is lost below this face velocity.

2. The controller has been designed so that the LOW ALARM set point must be set at least 20 ft/min below the control SETPOINT when the FHC50 is set for face velocity control and 50 cfm when the FHC50 is set for flow control. For example, if the control SETPOINT is

100 ft/min, the LOW ALARM set point cannot be greater than 80 ft/min. This prevents nuisance alarms from occurring during natural system fluctuations.

3. The controller has been designed so that the HIGH ALARM set point must be set at least 20 ft/min above the control SETPOINT when the FHC50 is set for face velocity control and 50 cfm when the FHC50 is set for flow control. For example, if the control

SETPOINT is 100 ft/min, the HIGH ALARM set point cannot be less than 120 ft/min. This prevents nuisance alarms from occurring during natural system fluctuations.

4. The monitor has been designed so that the LOW ALARM set point must be at least 40 fpm below the HIGH ALARM set point when the FHM10 is set for face velocity control and 100 cfm below the HIGH ALARM set point when the FHM10 is set for flow control.

5. The ALARM RESET item selects how the alarms will terminate when controller returns to the safe range. The face velocity alarms all terminate the same; they are either LATCHED or UNLATCHED . If UNLATCHED is selected, the low alarm automatically turns off when the face velocity exceeds the low face velocity alarm value by 20 ft/min or the low flow alarm value by 50 cfm. Conversely, the high alarm automatically turns off when the face velocity drops 20 ft/min below the high face velocity alarm set point or 50 cfm below the high flow alarm set point. If LATCHED is selected, the alarms will not terminate until the RESET key is pressed.

The SENSITIVITY item selects the integral dead band. The integral dead band determines when the controller uses integral control (slow control), and when the controller enters PID control (fast control).

Each % of SENSITIVITY represents 1 ft/min (5 cfm) that the face velocity (flow rate) must be away from set point before the FHC50 controller enters PID control (fast control). For example, if the SENSITIVITY is set to 80% and the set point is 100 fpm (500 cfm), the face velocity must drop below 80 fpm (400 cfm) or rise above 120 fpm (600 cfm) for the controller to enter PID control.

Calibration

The calibration section explains how to calibrate the controller and how to zero a TSI ® flow station pressure transducer (optional). The Fume Hood Monitor or Controller must be calibrated, after being installed on the fume hood, to provide accurate indication of fume hood face velocity and/or exhaust flow. The FHM10 Monitor and FHC50 Controller will warn the user with a display message if it has not been calibrated.

NOTE

This section assumes that the appropriate sensor has been correctly installed. Inaccurate readings may be detected if sensor is not installed correctly. Review the Installation

Instructions and verify that the sensor is installed correctly (usually only a problem on initial set up).

The following items are needed to calibrate a Model FHM10 Fume Hood Monitor or

Model FHC50 Fume Hood Controller:

•

Masking tape

•

Tape measure

•

Portable Air Velocity Meter such as TSI ® VelociCalc ® Model 9545 or Model 9515.

W A R N I N G

The controller is disabled during calibration. Containment may not be maintained.

To begin the calibration process, enter CALIBRATION

menu (see Software Programming if not

familiar with keystroke procedure).

Face Velocity Calibration

Face velocity can be controlled using either a sidewall sensor or sash-position sensor with a venturi valve.

Sidewall Velocity Sensor —Sensor Zero

1. Select VEL SENSOR ZERO item.

2. The controller will prompt to “ Tape over sensor, then press

 .” Place a piece of tape over the velocity sensor opening to seal off air flowing past the sensor and press the



soft key.

3. The display will indicate a countdown for the automatic sensor zero procedure, which takes

120 seconds. While counting down the 120 seconds, the controller will also display the current sensor voltage.

4. After the 120 second countdown, the controller will display “ Remove tape from sensor, then press



.

” Remove tape from sensor and press the 

key to save the zero point.

Sidewall Velocity Sensor —Sensor Span

NOTE

Always zero sensor prior to adjusting the sensor span. A comparison thermal anemometer is required to calibrate the velocity span. Confirm a good average face velocity is present in the fume face before adjusting the span.

51

1. Open the fume hood sash 60% (or to working height) and let the controller reach face velocity set point.

2. Select VEL SENSOR SPAN item (30 second countdown). After the countdown, the

VEL SENSOR SPAN submenu will be displayed.

3. Use a thermal anemometer to traverse the open sash area and obtain the average face velocity of the air passing into the hood.

4. Compare the thermal anemometer reading to the SPANNED VEL reading on the controller.

5. At the ENTER SPAN FACT menu item, press the quick keys to adjust the factor until the

SPANNED VEL reading on the controller display matches the thermal anemometer velocity.

6. Press the ENTER (



) soft key to save the sensor span calibration.

NOTE

To verify proper calibration, re-enter VEL SENSOR SPAN item and compare

SPANNED VEL reading to a new thermal anemometer traverse.

7. Exit menu, sidewall sensor calibration is complete.

W A R N I N G

Calibrating the sidewall velocity span on the controller may be an iterative process that takes 1 to 3 trials to get an accurate calibration. After adjusting the span factor, check the calibration to verify an accurate calibration.

Sash Position Calibration

1. Calibrate flow using LOM VENTURI Calibration section.

2. Calibrate vertical sash sensor using CALIBRATE SASH POT section.

3. Enter SASH FLOW CONTROL item.

4. Controller will prompt “ Raise sash to 24 inches height then press



.

” Open the sash(es) to the 24-inch height and press the



key. a. The FHC50 controller will display the following items:

Optimizing Controller Performance

The Model FHC50 controller uses both integral and PI control methods. Integral control (slower control signal) is used when the controller is near set point. Integral control provides stability when natural system fluctuations occur such as operators working at hoods and lab doors opening. PI control (fast control) is used when responding to large disturbances to face velocity such as sash movements. PI control rapidly returns the face velocity to set point, thus assuring containment. Once the controller is in PI control, it continues to control in this mode until the operating set point is met.

There are four menu items that change the characteristics of the control output signal;

1) SENSITIVITY

2) SPEED

3) Kc VALUE

4) Ti VALUE

TSI ® recommends only adjusting the SENSITIVITY and SPEED to fine tune the control signal.

Only when the SPEED and SENSITIVITY items cannot provide a stable system should

Kc VALUE and Ti VALUE

be adjusted. The role of each menu item is covered in the Menu and

Menu Items section of the manual. This section provides some guidance of when a menu item

should be changed.

The controller is shipped with PI values that are appropriate for 95+ % of the fume hoods installed. In fume hoods where some adjustment is needed, minor changes to the SENSITIVITY and SPEED menu items will yield excellent control. The SENSITIVITY item selects when the unit goes into PI control. Each percent of the setting from 100% indicates that the controller must be

1 ft/min away from control set point prior to activating PI control. If the SENSITIVITY setting is

60% (40% missing), the face velocity must be 40 ft/min off set point before PI control is activated.

Conversely, if the SENSITIVITY setting is 80% (20% missing), the face velocity must only be

20 ft/min off set point before PI control is activated. The default of 80% is usually a good compromise between PID and integral control.

The SPEED menu item slows down the control output. The controller is shipped with a control signal capable of rotating the damper 90 degrees in 1.5 seconds. This may be too fast if the damper is in an unstable flow area (very near the exhaust fan), or there are competing air flows in

58 Part Two

the laboratory. Controllers modulating a VFD system will probably need to be slowed down, since the control signal is substantially faster than the VFD/fan can respond.

The remaining menu items, Kc VALUE and Ti VALUE should not be adjusted unless severe stability problems exist. Adjusting these variables may improve the response and stability, but the exact opposite may happen causing the controller to become unstable, hunt substantially, or have very slow response. If controller performance cannot be improved by adjusting the SPEED and SENSITIVITY , the two menu items can be manually set to their default values.

Maintenance and Repair Parts

The Model FHC50 Fume Hood Controller requires minimal maintenance. Periodic inspections of system components as well as an occasional velocity sensor cleaning are all that are needed to ensure that the Model FHC50 is operating properly. The Model FHC50 should be calibrated

annually. Refer to the Calibration section for further information.

System Component Inspection

It is recommended that the velocity sensor be periodically inspected for accumulation of contaminants. The frequency of these inspections is dependent upon the quality of the air being drawn across the sensor. Quite simply, if the laboratory air is dirty, the sensors will require more frequent inspection and cleaning.

Visually inspect the velocity sensor. The air flow orifice should be free of obstructions. The small, cylindrical, ceramic sensor protruding from the orifice wall should be white and free of accumulated debris.

Figure 5: Velocity Sensor

Periodically inspect the other system components for proper performance and physical signs of excessive wear.

Velocity Sensor Cleaning

Accumulations of dust or dirt can be removed with a dry soft-bristled brush (such as an artist's brush). If necessary, water, alcohol, acetone, or trichlorethane may be used as a solvent to remove other contaminants.


Use extreme care when cleaning the velocity sensors. The ceramic sensor may break if excessive pressure is applied, if sensor is scraped to remove contaminants, or if the cleaning apparatus abruptly impacts the sensor.

W A R N I N G

If you are using a liquid to clean the sensor, turn off power to the Model FHC50.

DO NOT apply power before velocity sensor completely dries.

DO NOT use compressed air to clean the velocity sensors.

DO NOT attempt to scrape contaminants from the velocity sensors. The velocity sensors are quite durable; however, scraping may cause mechanical damage and possibly break the sensor. Mechanical damage due to scraping voids the sensor warranty.

Replacement Parts

All components of the Face Velocity Control system are field replaceable. Contact TSI ® or your nearest TSI ® Manufacturer's Representative for replacement part pricing and delivery.

Troubleshooting Section

The Model FHM10 Fume Hood Monitor and FHC50 Fume Hood Controller is designed to be trouble free. However, installation problems or interaction with other HVAC components may cause system problems. The system is easy to troubleshoot if an organized approach to evaluate the system is taken. Troubleshooting is broken down into hardware (mechanical) and software problems. Hardware problems deal with the physical installation of the device. Hardware problems include wiring problems, incorrectly installed equipment, and add-ons or non-TSI ® equipment. Software problems include control problems, configuration problems, or interaction problems with the HVAC system.

The hardware test described in this section determines that all TSI ® mechanical components are functioning correctly. The hardware test requires the diagnostics menu items to be accessed. If

you are unfamiliar with the controller menus, see Software Programming for keystroke procedure.

Troubleshooting the majority of problems is usually quick if the hardware test is followed.

Software and hardware problems are covered in the troubleshooting chart. Pick the problem that most closely resembles your problem and review the possible symptoms and corrective action.

Software or system performance problems can and are affected by the supply air system, exhaust air system, or physical configuration of the room. Separating TSI ® system problems from the laboratory HVAC system can sometimes be difficult. TSI ® recommends confirming all hardware is operating correctly before troubleshooting software problems.

60 Part Two

Hardware Test

Three tests need to be performed in order to determine all hardware is functioning correctly. The tests are broken down into:

•

Confirming wiring is correct .

•

Confirming physical installation is correct .

•

Verifying mechanical components .

Confirming wiring is correct

The most common problem with installed hardware equipment is incorrect wiring. This problem usually exists on initial installation, or when modifications to the system take place.

The wiring should be very closely checked to verify it exactly matches the wiring diagram.

Wiring diagrams are located in Appendix C of this manual. Wiring associated with non-TSI

® components should be closely checked for correct installation. If non-TSI ® components are installed, consider disconnecting them for testing purposes.

Confirming physical installation is correct

All of the hardware components need to be installed properly. Review the installation instructions and verify components are installed properly at the correct location. This is easily done when the wiring is checked.

Verifying mechanical components

Verifying all TSI ® components are operating correctly requires following a simple procedure.

The fastest procedure to confirm all equipment is operating is to first test the Digital Interface

Module (DIM), and then go into the diagnostic menu to test each component.

NOTE

These tests require power to the units, so if unit has no power, refer to hardware troubleshooting chart to eliminate power problem.

TEST - DIM

Enter the SELF TEST menu item in the diagnostics menu to verify DIM electronics are functioning correctly. During the self test, the display will show the model number and software revision of the controller. At the end of the self test, the display will show a message. The display shows:

•

NO ERRORS if all DIM electronics are good.

•

FRAM error if settings may have been lost. Press RESET to clear error and check all settings for correct values.

•

CALIB error if sensor calibration may have been lost. Verify face velocity, sash sensor and/or flow calibration.

If NO ERRORS

is displayed, proceed to test individual components in the Diagnostics Menu .

If the controller passes each of the tests, the mechanical piece parts are all functioning correctly.

Troubleshooting Chart

Symptom Possible Cause Corrective Action

Display is blank. Fuse is blown. Measure voltage at pins 1 and 2 on DIM 4-pin connector.

The voltage should nominally be:

24 to 40 VDC when using TSI ® electric actuators.

24 to 30 VAC when using motor speed drives.

If correct voltage is measured, internal DIM fuse is probably blown. Unplug 4-pin connector from DIM for

2 minutes. The internal fuse will automatically reset. Plug unit back in and check display. If display is still blank, check all wiring, etc.

If approximately 5 volts is measured, the fuse in the electric actuator is blown. Disconnect power to the electric actuator for two minutes to reset fuse.

Disconnecting power requires either shutting off circuit breaker or disconnecting the wires on pins 1 and 2 on the electric actuator.

If zero volts are measured, see

No power to DIM .

Verify circuit breaker is on.

Verify transformer primary measures 110 VAC.

Verify transformer secondary measures 24 to 30 VAC.

If using DC power output from TSI ® electric actuator:

Verify electric actuator is receiving 24 to 30 VAC between pins 1 and 2.

Verify 18 to 40 VDC is found between pins 3 and 4 of the electric actuator.

No power to DIM. Verify circuit breaker is on.

Verify transformer primary measures 110 VAC.

Verify transformer secondary measures 24 to 30 VAC.

Verify 24 to 40 VDC is found between pins 3 and 4 of the electric actuator.

Verify DIM voltage on pins 1 and 2 is 24 to 30 VAC for

VFD systems, or 32 to 40 VDC on electric actuators.

DIM is defective. If proper voltage is found between pins 1 and 2 of the

DIM, all wiring has been checked, fuses have been reset, and screen is still blank, the DIM is probably defective.

Replace DIM.

Symptom

Actuator hunting.

Display indicates steady velocity.

Displayed velocity wildly fluctuating.

Analog output does not work properly.

Displayed velocity does not match measured velocity.


Control system is unstable.

Exhaust system unstable.

Laboratory supply air is affecting the sensor.

Go into CONTROL menu ,

SPEED item. Turn speed down until hunting is eliminated. If speed is too slow see manual section: Optimizing Controller Performance and adjust accordingly to eliminate problem.

Turn DIM to emergency if using a Model FHC50 controller. If velocity stabilizes, exhaust system is not unstable.

Check location of supply air diffusers. They should be located as far from the velocity sensor as is realistic, 10 feet preferred, 6 feet minimum. Supply diffuser terminal throw velocity must be less than 50% of the average controlled face velocity. Velocity in the fume hood chase

(back side of sensor) should be less than 25% of the average controlled face velocity. The supply diffuser must be relocated if these parameters cannot be met.

Display averaging is very short.

Controller needs calibration.

Lengthen the time constant by entering the

CONFIGURATION menu ,

DISPLAY AVG item, and increase the average time.

Calibrate controller.

Controller is connected to incompatible equipment.

Velocity sensor is dirty.

Enter the DIAGNOSTICS menu ,

Network Communications

Network communications are available on the Model FHC50. The Model FHC50 can communicate with a building management system through Modbus ® , N2, LonWorks ® or BACnet ®

MS/TP protocols. Please refer to the appropriate section below for more detailed information.

Modbus

®

Communications

Modbus ® communications are installed in the Model FHC50 fume hood controllers. This document provides the technical information needed to communicate between the host DDC system and the Model FHC50 units. This document assumes the programmer is familiar with

Modbus ® protocol. Further technical assistance is available from TSI ® if your question is related to TSI ® interfacing to a DDC system. If you need further information regarding Modbus ® programming in general, please contact:

Modicon Incorporated (a division of Schneider-Electric)

One High Street

North Andover, MA 01845

Phone (800) 468-5342

The Modbus ® protocol utilizes the RTU format for data transfer and Error Checking. Check the

Modicon Modbus ® Protocol Reference Guide (PI-Mbus-300) for more information on CRC generation and message structures.

The messages are sent at 9600 baud with no start bit, 8 data bits, and 2 stop bits. Do not use the parity bit. The system is set up as a master slave network. The TSI ® units act as slaves and respond to messages when their correct address is polled.

Blocks of data can be read from each device. Using a block format will speed up the time for the data transfer. The size of the blocks is limited to 255 bytes. This means the maximum message length that can be transferred is 255 bytes. The typical response time of the device is around

0.05 seconds with a maximum of 0.1 seconds.

Unique to TSI

®

The list of variable addresses shown below skips some numbers in the sequence due to internal

Model FHC50 functions. This information is not useful to the DDC system and is therefore deleted. Skipping numbers in the sequence will not cause any communication problems. If a variable is not used by the particular FHC50 configuration, it will be reported with a value of -1.

All variables are outputted in English units: ft/min, and cfm. If the DDC system is to display different units, the DDC system needs to make the conversion.

Network Points

These variables can be read using Modbus ® command 03 Read Holding Registers . They can be written to using Modbus ® command 06 Write Single Register . Many of these variables are the same “menu items” that are configured from the controller keypad. The calibration and control items are not accessible from the DDC system. This is for safety reasons since each hood is individually setup for maximum performance.

Analog Input

Description

Variables are defined as analog inputs, binary inputs, and analog outputs.

Analog inputs are current control parameters and items that the controller is measuring. Binary inputs represent controller states. Analog outputs are the programmable set points for the Fume Hood Controller. These set points can be changed through the keypad or by over-writing the current set point.

Output Command

The FHC50 has the ability to change control set points locally. The alarm set points need to be based on the controllers control set point (AI #2). The unit can be changed from Normal Mode to Setback Mode. For example the set point could go from 100 ft/min to 60 ft/min when the Setback key is pressed. If the

COS alarm set points are not changed to accommodate you could get low alarm or low warning messages when the unit is working correctly. If these alarm points are set outside of the setback and main velocity set point values, incorrect alarm messages can be prevented.

The Damper Position Analog Input value can be set using the override command. This value will be reset to the correct item when the Override is released. There is not a time-out on the override command.

Other Analog Input values cannot be Overridden.

Overriding a 1 to the Setback or Emergency binary inputs enables the respective mode. To return the controller to normal mode from setback mode, press the Setback key on the controller, toggle the setback contact input, or release the override. To release controller from emergency state, override a 0 to the Emergency input, toggle the emergency contact input, or press either the emergency or reset key. Releasing the override will return the controller to the state it was in previous to the emergency, either Normal or Setback.

The alarm, data error, and sensor error variables can be overridden, but this will not affect the controller. Overriding the low alarm variable will result in a change of status, but will not put the controller into low alarm mode. The local alarm modes can only be controlled locally. Only override these variables for diagnostic purposes, and release them for normal operation.

Sensor Error and Data Error binary inputs are used to indicate if something has gone wrong with the controller. The Sensor Error is set when the sensor on the controller has a malfunction. This indicates that service should be done on the controller. Data Error indicates when some of the data stored on the device has been corrupted. The calibration and set point values should be checked on the controller.

The analog output variables can be overridden to change their values. The overridden value will be checked for validity. If invalid, the override command will be ignored, and the value will not change. The override flag will not be set when the value is ignored. The override command will be cleared when the variable is reset in the menus. The variable will not reset with the release command.
