MAXIMUM FLOW
SETPOINT
FHC50 Only
The MAX FLOW item sets the maximum flow set point when the
NORMAL CONTROL MODE is set to VelSidewall, VelSashPos
or VelSide+Sash. When the fume hood exhaust reaches the
maximum flow set point, as the fume hood sash is raised, the
controller will modulate the hood exhaust damper to maintain
this maximum flow.
WARNING: The Model FHC50 may not maintain the fume
hoods average face velocity at the SETPOINT item
value when a MAX FLOW has been programmed.
The average face velocity may fall below the
SETPOINT item value, resulting in a LOW ALARM
condition.
NOTE: The MAX FLOW set point must be 50 cfm greater than
the MIN FLOW set point.
LOW VELOCITY
ALARM SETPOINT
FHM10 and FHC50
The LOW VEL ALARM item sets the face velocity low alarm set
point during Normal mode. A low alarm condition is defined as
when the face velocity is less than the low alarm set point during
Normal mode.
NOTE: The LOW VEL ALARM must be at least 20 ft/min less
than the SETPOINT.
HIGH VELOCITY
ALARM SETPOINT
FHM10 and FHC50
The HIGH VEL ALARM item sets the face velocity high alarm
set point during Normal mode. A high alarm condition is defined
as when the face velocity exceeds the high alarm set point
during Normal mode.
NOTE: The HIGH VEL ALARM must be at least 20 ft/min
greater than the SETPOINT.
LOW FLOW
ALARM SETPOINT
FHM10 and FHC50
The LO FLOW ALARM item sets the low flow alarm set point
during Normal mode. A low flow alarm condition is defined as
when the exhaust flow is less than the low flow alarm set point
during Normal mode.
NOTE: The LO FLOW ALARM must be at least 50 cfm less
than the SETPOINT.
