hello my name is John elder and I work
0:01
for cast service this video will cover
0:04
the gas valve option that is available
0:05
in every hood control package this
0:08
option is normally turned off from the
0:10
factory but can easily be turned on
0:11
through the hood controls if an electric
0:13
gas valve is being used first let's look

Wiring

0:16
at where to wire the gas valve every
0:18
hood control package has a gas terminal
0:21
so wiring is easy simply wire the two
0:23
wires from the gas valve one to the gas
0:26
terminal and the other to neutral or in
0:28
one terminal make sure that the valve is
0:31
rated for 120 volts AC as this is the
0:34
voltage that will be supplied to the gas
0:36
terminal when energized now that the

Programming

0:39
valve is wired let's take a look at how
0:40
to turn on the gas valve option this
0:43
programming process is applicable to
0:44
software versions 2.0 0 or higher for
0:48
older software versions refer to the
0:50
manual or contact tech support for
0:52
specific instructions to turn on the gas
0:54
valve option start by pressing the top
0:57
two buttons on the hood display the
0:59
display should change and save board
1:01
settings navigation is done with the up
1:04
down menu and inner buttons up and down
1:07
will scroll through menus and menu
1:08
options the inner button is used to
1:11
enter a menu and to enter menu options
1:14
the menu button will take you back one
1:16
menu level and eventually allow you to
1:19
save your changes
1:20
now that board settings is displayed
1:22
press the inner button and the display
1:25
will change and say options at this
1:27
point press either up or down until the
1:30
fire options menu appears press ENTER
1:33
and input the numerical password of one
1:35
two three four scroll through the menu
1:38
options until you reach the is gas valve
1:41
and abled option press ENTER and change
1:44
it from no to yes and then press the
1:47
inner button now press the menu button
1:49
several times until you're prompted to
1:51
save changes pressing the Save button
1:53
will save your changes and reboot the
1:55
system once the system reboots the top
1:58
right button will now say gas reset
2:01
pressing this button will energize the
2:03
gas terminal with 120 volts which in
2:05
turn energizes the gas valve the display
2:08
will also prompt you to check your
2:10
appliance pilot lights as the gas valve
2:12
should now be a
2:13
and gas is flowing
 


Hood Control Package Service Menus

hello my name is John elder and I work
0:01
for cast service the purpose of this
0:03
video is to cover some of the basic
0:05
components in our hood control package
0:07
as well as some of the service menus
0:09
available in our latest software let's

Hood Control Package

0:11
start by looking at a hood control
0:13
package or electrical control package
0:15
the control package is usually mounted
0:17
in the utility cabinet at the end of the
0:19
hood but could be mounted on a wall
0:20
somewhere in the kitchen or even above
0:22
the drop ceiling remember to follow all
0:25
safe work practices when opening or
0:27
working in the control box keeping in
0:29
mind that there are several sources of
0:30
power feeding into the control package
0:32
these photos show some of the major
0:34
components contained in the control
0:36
package your control package will most
0:39
likely be different than the examples
0:40
here because all the control packages
0:42
are custom-built to the job specs I
0:44
won't cover every component in this
0:46
video but I do want to point out a few
0:48
things
0:49
there is one relay labeled re one that
0:52
will be energized all the time unless
0:53
the control packages in the fire mode
0:55
and if your fans are operated by a motor
0:59
starter which is a contactor and it
1:02
overload the overload will have a square
1:04
red and black button these are the tests
1:06
and reset buttons if you happen to have
1:09
an error message on your hood display
1:11
that says overload trip to zone 1
1:12
pressing the black button will reset the
1:15
overload now let's focus on the ECP mo3

ECP MO3

1:19
and the service menus that are available
1:21
the first screen will say DC V which
1:24
stands for demand control ventilation
1:26
and below that there will be a number
1:28
which is the software version the board
1:30
is running under the screen there are
1:32
four buttons labeled menu up down and
1:34
enter if you press up or down buttons
1:36
you will be able to cycle through the
1:38
available menus the first menus
1:40
configuration this menus where all the
1:42
configuration parameters are set and
1:44
will be covered in a later video the
1:46
next menu option is date and time if you
1:49
press ENTER the board will display the
1:51
current date and time that was
1:52
programmed if you press up or down again
1:55
you would have the option to change the
1:56
time zone should you need to the next
1:59
menu option is system bypass this
2:02
function is for emergency situations
2:03
like the display on the front of the
2:05
hood not working or the fans not
2:07
responding or turning on at all
2:09
if you press ENTER and turn this
2:11
function on all the
2:13
check on the control board will be
2:14
bypassed and the system will turn on all
2:16
the lights and run all the fans at high
2:18
speed continuously until this function
2:21
is turned back off the display will also
2:23
show that the hoods are on by system
2:27
bypass the next menu fan monitoring may
2:30
or may not be available this menu will
2:33
give you information about the speed the
2:35
Control Board is telling the VFD to run
2:37
as well as information from the VFD on
2:39
amp draw press enter to select the fan
2:42
frequency or via or VFD amps then press
2:46
up or down to cycle through the drives
2:48
the next menu is false this menu will
2:51
show you a list of board faults that
2:52
have occurred with a time and date stamp
2:54
press ENTER to view the faults you can
2:57
also have an option to clear the fault
2:59
history by selecting clear faults the
3:02
last menus temperatures entering this
3:04
menu will allow you to cycle through
3:05
each temperature probe and read the
3:07
real-time temperature readings which is
3:09
helpful when troubleshooting hood
3:11
performance issues
 


Hood Control Package Start-Up


Video Transcript

Intro

0:00
hello everyone it's john elder again
0:01
with another service video for you
0:03
today we're going to be talking about
0:04
how to safely power up a control package
0:06
either a wall mounted package like you
0:08
have here
0:09
or if your package is mounted in the
0:10
hood and the utility cabinet doesn't
0:12
matter
0:13
follow some of these safe precautions
0:15
you should be able to safely power up
0:16
and minimize the possibility of damaging
0:19
equipment

Safety

0:20
be sure to follow all safe work
0:22
practices especially the use of ppe
0:24
all circuits should be de-energized
0:26
prior to any wiring or service
0:28
remember many of our controls will have
0:29
more than one circuit that will need to
0:31
be turned off
0:32
after de-energizing the circuit verify
0:35
that the circuit is dead
0:36
then lock out and tag the breaker

Hood Control Package

0:40
let's start by looking at an example of
0:41
a hood control package
0:43
every job is custom built so variations
0:45
are almost endless
0:46
but there are some common components
0:48
which we will review today
0:50
in every control package you'll find an
0:51
hmi and a circuit board
0:53
the hmi is typically located on the
0:55
front of the exhaust hood
0:57
but in some cases it may be mounted on
0:59
the door of the control package
1:01
if needed the hmi can be mounted in a
1:03
two gang box on the wall for better
1:05
access
1:07
other common components may include
1:09
contactors
1:10
variable frequency drives cellular
1:12
modules relays and power supplies
1:15
the key to truly understanding the
1:16
control packages by referring to the
1:18
wiring diagram attached to the door
1:20
this diagram is not a typical diagram
1:22
but rather it's specific to the job
1:25
and is invaluable to making sure that
1:27
everything gets wired correctly

Wiring Diagram

1:29
let me take a moment to explain how the
1:30
diagram reads because it's slightly
1:32
different than most
1:34
i call this a point-to-point diagram
1:35
because it shows you wiring from the
1:37
power source to the terminal in the
1:39
control package
1:40
or from the control package to the
1:42
switch fan or component
1:44
for example here's the wiring for an
1:46
exhaust fan being controlled by vfd
1:49
you see here the high voltage wiring
1:51
comes from the breaker in the building's
1:53
breaker panel
1:54
to terminals l1 l2 and l3 in the control
1:57
package
1:58
these terminals are located here then
2:01
if you look at the wiring diagram again
2:04
you see the high voltage wire from the
2:05
vfd to the exhaust fan
2:08
or from terminals u1 v1 w1
2:12
located here to the disconnect on the
2:14
fan
2:15
the remainder of the diagram reads the
2:16
same solid lines are factory wired for
2:19
you and dashed lines will require field
2:21
wiring
2:22
one specific note on wiring ec motors to
2:25
our circuit board
2:26
is note that the p terminals shown here
2:29
are polarity sensitive
2:31
so double check this before applying
2:33
power
2:34
reversing polarity will damage the
2:36
terminals okay so once

ECP Setup

2:38
you understand how to read the wiring
2:40
diagram go ahead and complete all the
2:42
field wiring to all the components that
2:43
are needed
2:44
but don't apply power there's a few
2:46
things we need to do to this control
2:48
package to set it up so that you can
2:49
safely apply
2:50
power if you follow these precautions
2:52
it's going to save you a lot of
2:53
headaches
2:54
if by chance something got miswired so

VFDs

2:57
first if your control package has vfds
2:59
what you want to do is we want to unplug
3:01
these
3:01
just quick disconnects here this is the
3:03
load power from the vfd to the fan
3:06
what this does is it protects the vfd
3:08
should you get it mis-wired
3:10
if you mix up line and load here when
3:13
you turn on the breaker it's going to
3:14
short the vfd instantly it's going to
3:16
have to be replaced
3:17
with these quick disconnects unplugged
3:19
when you turn on the breaker one of two
3:21
things is going to happen
3:22
either the vfd is going to power up
3:24
normally at that point you know you have
3:26
everything right
3:27
you can plug these back in you're good
3:28
to go or
3:30
when you turn on the breaker if the vfd
3:32
do not power up as
3:33
expected then you know you have line and
3:36
load backwards
3:36
and this needs to be corrected before
3:39
you can go any further so turn the
3:41
breaker off
3:42
correct this wiring and then with these
3:45
unplugged
3:46
turn the breaker on just to be sure
3:48
again we're saving these vfds
3:50
from shorting out once you've verified

Applying Power

3:53
all wiring is correct you can apply
3:55
power to the control package
3:56
here a few situations that you may
3:58
observe once power
4:00
is applied and you try to run the fans
4:03
first if you power up the circuit board
4:05
but do not power up the vfds
4:07
the hmi will show you a modbus
4:09
communication fault
4:11
that simply means that the circuit board
4:13
can't see the vfd because it's not
4:15
powered up
4:15
and able to communicate if you have a
4:18
fan mounted vfd
4:19
it will have to be powered up and a cat5
4:22
communication cable
4:23
run from the control package in order to
4:25
communicate
4:27
another common issue that comes up
4:28
happens when you try to run the fan for
4:30
the first time
4:32
you may receive a modbus fault number 8
4:34
which is an overload fault
4:36
the first thing to check is fan rotation
4:40
fan rotation must be verified visually
4:42
because if backwards the fan will still
4:44
move air in the correct direction but
4:46
it'll only move half as much
4:48
and the amp draw will be considerably
4:49
higher
4:51
to change rotation swap any two legs of
4:54
power between the vfd and the fan
4:57
if rotation is correct the overload is
4:59
more than likely because the fan has not
5:02
been balanced and are simply running too
5:04
fast
5:05
another issue may see is when the hmi
5:08
reads fire
5:09
and the exhaust fans are running the
5:11
most common issue is that the fire
5:13
system microswitch has not been wired to
5:15
the terminals c1 and ar1
5:18
or was wired normally open rather than
5:20
normally closed
5:22
the last most common issue is the hdmi
5:24
showing missing temp sensors
5:26
this simply means that the circuit board
5:28
has been programmed for a specific
5:30
number of temp
5:31
sensors and is not detecting all of them
5:33
verify all your sensors got wired to the
5:35
t
5:35
terminals again the wiring diagram will
5:38
show you the number of sensors required
5:40
for your specific job

Closing

5:42
now that you have more information on
5:43
how to safely start up a control package
5:45
i hope your install will be less
5:47
troublesome
5:48
and less stressful if you have any
5:50

How to Wire an Electronically Commutated Motor (ECM) to a Hood Package


Video Transcript

Intro

0:01
hello everyone
0:03
with the growing popularity of ec motors
0:05
or electrically commutated motors
0:07
for their power output and their energy
0:09
savings these motors are becoming more
0:11
and more popular and are being used more
0:13
and more in hood ventilation
0:14
applications
0:15
the most common motors are fractionally
0:17
horsepower motors but the
0:18
availability of larger motors is
0:20
increasing there are several
0:22
options for controlling these motors but
0:24
in this video i'm only going to cover
0:25
one of those and that's wiring our ec
0:27
motor to one of our hood control
0:29
packages

Safety

0:30
be sure to follow all safe work
0:32
practices especially the use of ppe
0:34
all circuits should be de-energized
0:36
prior to any wiring or service
0:38
remember many of our controls will have
0:40
more than one circuit that will need to
0:41
be turned off after de-energizing the
0:43
circuit
0:44
verify that the circuit is dead then
0:46
lock out and tag the breaker

EC Motor Control Options

0:51
it's important to check the equipment on
0:52
the job site as well as the job site
0:54
schematics to see what type of equipment
0:56
you have and how it's going to be
0:57
controlled because there's several ways
0:59
to control an ec
1:00
motor the first is a controller mounted
1:02
on the fan itself which may control the
1:04
motor when power is applied
1:06
or controlled remotely the second way we
1:09
control ec motors is through a hood
1:11
control
1:12
package this video will only cover
1:14
wiring the ec motor to the circuit board
1:16
in the hood control package
1:18
in this scenario the high voltage power
1:20
will be applied to the fan all the time
1:23
and only the low voltage signal power
1:25
will be controlled

How an EC Motor Works

1:26
before we get to the wiring specifics
1:28
let's look at how an ec motor works
1:31
the motor receives high voltage power
1:33
just like a traditional motor
1:35
however in many cases the power is
1:36
present at the motor all the time and
1:38
fed directly from a breaker in the
1:40
building breaker panel
1:42
in order to run the motor must receive a
1:44
pulse width modulation or pwm signal
1:47
supplied by a fan motor controller or in
1:49
this case directly from the circuit
1:51
board in our hood controls
1:53
this low voltage signal is fed to the
1:55
motor control module
1:57
located on the motor which in turn
1:59
provides a soft start and controls the
2:01
motor speed

Wiring a Fan to a Hood Control Package

2:02
now let's look at how to wire a fan to
2:04
our hood control package
2:06
start by wiring the high voltage for the
2:08
motor straight to the breaker
2:10
so the fan will have standing power all
2:11
the time
2:13
then locate the low voltage wires in the
2:15
j box of the fan
2:17
and wire these with twisted shielded
2:19
pair to the hood control package
2:21
and land them on the correct p terminals
2:24
let's look at a real life example of how
2:26
this gets wired
2:28
looking at the job schematic we see the
2:30
high voltage listed here for each fan
2:33
and the low voltage listed here for each
2:35
fan
2:36
now let's take a detailed look at the
2:38
low voltage wiring
2:40
locate the low voltage wiring on the fan
2:42
and run that down to the hood control
2:44
package
2:45
these wires will be terminated on the
2:46
hood control package on the p
2:48
terminals located here note that the low
2:51
voltage wiring is polarity sensitive
2:54
if you get the polarity wrong and apply
2:56
power the corresponding p
2:58
terminals will be shorted there are four
3:00
sets of p
3:01
terminals and it's critical to get the
3:02
correct fan on the correct terminals by
3:05
matching the fan number to the schematic
3:08
matching the fan to the correct
3:09
terminals is critical to air balancing
3:12
and proper fan operation in a fire
3:13
condition
3:15
once wiring is complete apply power and
3:17
turn on the fans to test the fan
3:19
operation

Closing

3:21

Overload Tripped Fault


Video Transcript

Intro

0:00
hello everyone it's john elder again
0:01
with another service video
0:03
today i'm going to talk to you about a
0:05
common problem that we see here on the
0:06
hood display and that's a fault that
0:08
says overload trip to zone one or zone
0:10
two
0:11
um talk to you about what causes that
0:12
fault and how to reset it so don't go
0:14
away i'll be right back
0:16
remember to observe all safe work
0:18
practices and use the proper ppe
0:21
this video requires work in the hood
0:23
control package so it's recommended that
0:25
the power be turned off to all circuits
0:27
before any work is performed
0:29
note the hood control package will have
0:30
multiple circuits that should be
0:32
de-energized

What Causes the Fault

0:34
let's start by talking about the fault
0:35
and what causes it
0:37
in some of our hood control packages we
0:39
use devices called contactors
0:41
to control the fan motors and depending
0:43
on the type of motor being used we may
0:45
also add an overload to provide a higher
0:48
level of protection
0:50
just to note that when a contactor and
0:51
overload are combined it's sometimes
0:53
called a motor starter
0:55
it's the overload that when triggered
0:57
will stop the flow of electricity to the
0:59
motor
0:59
and create the overload fault the
1:02
overload is triggered when the circuit
1:03
has too many amps
1:05
loses one phase of power or there's a
1:07
high voltage imbalance
1:09
which frequently happens when there is a

What Causes the Overload

1:11
power outage or a low voltage situation
1:14
in the building due to things like
1:15
construction or thunderstorms
1:17
the other possibility is a bad wire
1:19
connection or a motor
1:21
which will require further
1:22
troubleshooting by a qualified service
1:24
person
1:25
once triggered the overload must be
1:27
reset manually which is what i'm going
1:28
to cover next

Locate the Hood Control Package

1:31
first we have to locate the hood control
1:33
package let me show you two different
1:34
packages we have on display here in
1:36
denver
1:38
the most common place to find a control
1:39
package is in the utility cabinet at the
1:41
end of the hood
1:42
along with the fire system lift up on
1:45
the door and pull outward to remove
1:48
there should be a gray control box
1:49
inside which contain the overloads
1:52
the other less common location for the
1:54
control package would be a wall mounted
1:56
one like this one here
1:57
the concept is the same though and the
1:59
overloads will be found inside
2:03
now let's open the control panel and
2:04
find the contactors and overloads
2:06
or motor starters remember it's
2:08
recommended to turn off all the power
2:10
to the panel before working inside the
2:13
door only needs a flathead screwdriver
2:15
to open
2:16
unless it was ordered with a key lock
2:18
once the door is open
2:20
you're looking for the contactor and
2:21
overload pictured here
2:23
the overload can be identified by the
2:25
two square buttons
2:27
one red and one black the red button is
2:29
a test button
2:30
and the black button is the reset button
2:33
if you have multiple overloads and don't
2:35
know which one is tripped there's a trip
2:36
indicator on the overload
2:38
or you can just press the black button
2:40
on each overload
2:42
if the overload's not tripped nothing
2:43
will happen
2:45
but if the overload is tripped you'll
2:47
hear a click and the fan
2:48
motor should start once the power is
2:50
restored
2:52
if the overload trips again right away
2:54
it's time to call a qualified service
2:56
technician to further troubleshoot the
2:58
problem
2:59
thank you for watching and i hope this
3:00
video gets you back up and running

Shunt Trip Breaker Wiring


Video Transcript

Introduction

0:00
hello my name is John elder and I work
0:01
for cast service the purpose of this
0:03
video is to show you how to wire a shunt
0:05
trip breaker to one of our hood control
0:07
packages to control power to the
0:09
appliances under the hood during a fire
0:11
situation explain the differences
0:13
between a shunt trip breaker and a GFI
0:16
breaker as well as an alternative to
0:18
using a shunt trip breaker let's start

Shunt Trip Breaker

0:21
by identifying a shunt trip breaker a
0:23
shunt ER breaker contains an electric
0:26
coil and a plunger that when the coil is
0:28
energized the plungers operated and the
0:30
breaker is tripped mechanically the
0:33
breaker can be identified by having two
0:35
wires or terminals on the side where 120
0:38
volts gets applied to energize the coil
0:40
and operate the plunger it's important
0:44
to note that the shunt trip breakers are
0:46
different than GFI breakers GFI breakers
0:49
only have one pigtail wire usually white
0:51
that would get wired to the neutral bar
0:54
in the breaker panel and trips
0:55
electrically when a short is detected
0:57
note a GFI breaker cannot be wired to a
1:00
hood control package and operate because
1:03
the control package does not create a
1:05
short rather it sends out 120 volts to
1:08
energize a coil so remember breaker
1:11
selection is critical for proper
1:13
performance now let's look at a hood

Hood Control Package

1:16
control package on the right hand side
1:19
you'll find the terminal blocks find the
1:21
two terminals labeled st and n1 these
1:25
are going to be the terminals that will
1:27
provide power to the coil on the shunt
1:29
trip breaker wire the shunt trip breaker
1:31
coil to these terminals and when the
1:33
hood goes into the fire mode the
1:35
controls will energize terminal St with
1:38
120 volts the preferred method to
1:42
controlling the power to the appliances
1:44
under the hood during a fire is to use a
1:46
shunt trip breaker however in some cases
1:49
for whatever reason shunt trip breakers
1:51
are not available a contactor can be
1:53
used the coil voltage for the contactor
1:56
would come from terminals a R 1 and N 1
1:59
this will provide 120 volt control power
2:03
to energize the contactor coil until the
2:06
hood controls go into the fire mode at
2:08
which time the 120 volts will be removed
2:11
and the contactor will be D energized
 


Temp Sensor Wiring - Video 1

hello my name is John elder and I work
0:03
for cast service purpose of this video
0:05
is going to show you how to wire up the
0:07
temp probes to our hood control package
0:08
how to identify the probes assignment
0:11
and its physical location before we get
0:13
started remember to follow all safe work
0:15
practices including the use of PPE be
0:19
sure to turn off all sources of
0:20
electrical power to the control package
0:22
remembering that many of our control
0:24
packages have multiple sources of power
0:26
we'll have 120 volt control circuit and
0:28
three-phase power for your VFDs or your
0:31
fans remember after turning off power
0:33
the VFDs may take several seconds to
0:35
fully power down now let's take a moment
0:38
to look at the wiring diagram and help
0:39
identify the probes if you look here on
0:42
the diagram in this example we have
0:43
three probes probe number one is the
0:46
room temperature probe 2 is the hood one
0:48
riser one and the third probe is shipped
0:51
loose for field install looking deeper
0:54
you can see we wire from the hood
0:56
control panel to the kitchen temp sensor
0:58
from terminals T 1 a and B 2 the room
1:01
temp sensor with 18 to Thurman stat wire
1:04
then from the hood controls to the duct
1:06
sensor t 2 a and B to hood 1 exhaust
1:09
riser 1 and then from hood controls to
1:12
duck sensor t 3 a and B to whatever
1:15
sensor was shipped loose in this
1:17
instance if you had more sensors they
1:20
would just be listed further on down T 3
1:22
T 4 T 5 and so on
1:24
now let's locate the terminals in the
1:26
control package if you look at the
1:28
circuit board on the top right corner
1:30
next to the battery you'll have a
1:32
terminal block there with yellow
1:33
stickers on it this one is marked room
1:35
hood 1 and hood 2 because we have three
1:38
probes in this example so the room
1:40
sensor would get wired again with 18 to
1:43
thermal stat wire two terminals T 1 and
1:45
T 1 a and T 1 B the hood probe would get
1:50
wired again with 18 - 2 T 2 a and B and
1:53
then so on and so on T 3 T 4 T 5 all the
1:58
way up to T 8 you would just continue to
2:01
wire these with 18 to thermal stat wire
2:04
on the appropriate terminals depending
2:07
on the location and the assignment
2:09
now let's look at the temp probes
2:12
themselves if you notice the temporal on
2:14
the right is the room temp sensor this
2:17
sensor should be mounted in the kitchen
2:19
on a wall and give an average
2:21
temperature of a room you want to make
2:23
sure you don't hang it on an outside
2:24
wall that's going to be cold all the
2:26
time or on a cooler wall it'll be cold
2:28
or an exterior wall that's gonna be hot
2:30
all the time or above the nice machine
2:32
it just needs to give a good average
2:34
temperature of the room the probe on the
2:36
left is an example of all of our
2:39
temperature probes these probes can be
2:40
located in the exhaust risers in the
2:42
hood they could be located in the supply
2:44
plenum they could be located in the
2:47
smaller AC portion of the supply plenum
2:50
these are located they're going to be
2:52
factory installed with a J box above and
2:54
you just can locate those again you run
2:56
it with a teen to Thurman stat wire and
2:58
land them on the appropriate terminals
 


Temp Sensor Wiring - Video 2


Video Transcript

Intro

0:01
welcome back everybody to another
0:03
service video
0:04
this video is going to talk about wiring
0:05
temp sensors in a hood control package
0:07
and the importance of getting it exactly
0:09
right

Safety

0:10
be sure to follow all safe work
0:11
practices especially the use of ppe
0:14
all circuits should be de-energized
0:15
prior to any wiring or service
0:17
remember many of our controls will have
0:19
more than one circuit that will need to
0:21
be turned off
0:22
after de-energizing the circuit verify
0:24
that the circuit is dead
0:26
then lock out and tag the breaker

Hood Control Package

0:30
i think it'd be helpful to start by
0:32
identifying the parts of a hood control
0:34
package
0:34
the first is the hood itself temp
0:37
sensors are going to be mounted in the
0:38
exhaust risers
0:39
or in the hood itself near a light
0:42
fixture the second portion is the psp or
0:45
perforated supply plenum
0:47
that's the large supply plenum that's in
0:50
front of the hood that delivers
0:51
dedicated makeup air down the front of
0:53
the hood
0:54
and that will have a temp sensor located
0:56
inside of it the second type is an ac
0:58
psp
0:59
or an air conditioned psp this has two
1:02
sections has a large sections
1:04
standard psp with a temp sensor but it
1:06
also has a small section that delivers
1:07
conditioned air into the kitchen
1:09
and it will also have a temp sensor
1:12
these
1:12
psp or ac psp are always shipped loose
1:15
so these sensors will always have to be
1:17
field wired
1:18
if you have multiple hoods you may have
1:20
some hood sensors that also have to be
1:22
field wired
1:23
if your system doesn't come with a psp
1:25
or an ac psp don't panic not every
1:27
system has it now

Wiring Temp Sensors

1:29
as you know from my other videos the
1:30
temp sensors get wired here to the t
1:32
terminals on the circuit board the
1:34
wiring diagram will show you which
1:36
sensors get wired where
1:37
so that when the system is complete
1:39
everything works the way it should
1:41
wiring the correct sensor to the correct
1:42
terminal is critical because they're
1:44
used to control the auto on function
1:46
as well as the fan speed in a demand
1:49
control ventilation or dcv system
1:51
in smaller systems where there is only
1:53
one exhaust fan and one supply fan
1:55
temp sensor wiring is pretty simple just
1:58
wire the temp sensors to the correct
1:59
terminals per the wiring diagram
2:02
in larger projects where there are
2:03
multiple hoods and fans it's critical to
2:05
wire the temp sensors to the correct
2:07
terminals
2:08
so the correct sensor will control the
2:10
correct fan
2:12
first let's look at the wiring diagram
2:14
each temp sensor is listed
2:15
on the diagram along with its location
2:18
the first sensor will always be the room
2:20
temp
2:20
sensor and will be wired to terminals t1
2:23
a and b
2:24
unless your system is using a wireless
2:26
sensor or a preset room temperature
2:29
there will be no wires on the t1
2:31
terminals
2:33
next will be the hood sensors in this
2:35
example we have three hood
2:36
sensors hood one riser one hood one
2:39
riser two
2:40
and hood two riser one the labels on
2:43
each hood will give you the hood number
2:45
and the riser on the left of the hood
2:47
when facing the hood is always riser 1
2:50
and riser 2 is always on the right just
2:53
match the correct sensor to the wiring
2:55
diagram
2:56
and to the correct t terminals and
2:58
terminate as always once the temp sensor
3:00
wiring is complete
3:01
it's recommended that you fully test the
3:04
functionality of the system to ensure
3:06
everything is running correctly
3:08
just a reminder only use a low
3:10
temperature heat source or a cold rag to
3:12
test the temp sensors
3:13
never use a torch or heat attempt sensor
3:15
for a long period of time

Temp Sensor Importance

3:17
here's a hypothetical situation that
3:19
will emphasize the importance of making
3:21
sure you get the temp sensors wired to
3:22
the correct terminals
3:24
let's say you have a customer with two
3:26
exhaust hoods and two exhaust fans
3:28
one for each hood if you wire the temp
3:31
sensor in hood 2
3:32
to where the sensor for hood 1 should be
3:35
when you start your appliance under hood
3:37
2
3:38
like a solid fuel char broiler for
3:39
example the sensor will warm up
3:42
but the fan for hood 1 will speed up
3:45
if this happens you run the risk of
3:47
setting off the hood fire system because
3:48
you won't be moving enough air
3:50
and overheating will occur now imagine
3:53
your customer in this situation
3:55
he has a fire system discharge and the
3:57
cleanup involved
3:58
loss of product loss of sales from
4:00
having to close and so on
4:02
you don't want to be in that position of
4:03
telling the customer that something was
4:05
wired wrong

Closing

4:06
that's it it's that simple remember that
4:08
every job is custom built so there's no
4:10
two jobs alike
4:11
the wiring diagram on your job site is
4:14
critical to making sure that everything
4:15
gets wired and functions properly
