OFFERS ready-to-go details for retrofitting, updating, or designing controls for altered systems. ALLOWs clear comparisons among commercial control systems. SHOWS frequently made and useful modifications to controls. DEMONSTRATES how to create controls for peak efficiency, air quality, and energy conservation. COVERS air-handling, terminal, and primary systems. OFFERS sequences and segments for virtually any HVAC system. SHOWS you how standard control algorithms work in particular systems. These hghly useful control diagrams, many of them comparable to commercially available models, let you design or specify needed configurations in the most efficient manner possible. Written by an experienced HVAC control engineer, it's in full compliance with ASHRAE standards and covers both hardware and software applications. This unique volume fills a definite need and should be a part of every HVAC engineer's design library.

A hard copy companion to the eLearning course that serves as a practical guide to the principles and characteristics of controls, and how to apply them in the use, selection, specification and design of controls systems.

Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning (HVAC)control systems are omnipresent in modern buildings. This book is an introduction to all those involved in the specification, design, manufacture, installation, operation or maintainance of these systems. The book explains: *Control theory and how to evaluate, select, position and sequence the appropriate type of control *The electrical knowledge needed to understand controls and the use of electrical circuit drawings *The various types of valves and dampers, and their selection, installation and operation *Terminology and attributes of sensors, the selection of moisture sensors, pressure, flow, and auxiliary devices *Self-powered and system-powered controls *Electric controls, control diagrams and control logic *The components of pneumatic systems and control applications diagrams *Wiring conventions, application-specific electronic controllers and how to use them in HVAC applications *The use of written specifications, schedules, and drawings to clearly identify what is to be installed, how it is to be installed, and how it is expected to operate *Direct Digital Controls (DDC) components, their inputs and outputs, and the programming of DDC routines *DDC Networks and Protocols *DDC Specification, Installation and Commissioning After completing this course, you will understand: *Control theory and how to evaluate, select, position and sequence the appropriate type of control *The electrical knowledge needed to understand controls and the use of electrical circuit drawings *The various types of valves and dampers, and their selection, installation and operation *Terminology and attributes of sensors, the selection of moisture sensors, pressure, flow, and auxiliary devices *Self-powered and system-powered controls Electric controls, control diagrams and control logic *The components of pneumatic systems and control applications diagrams *Wiring conventions, application-specific electronic controllers and how to use them in HVAC applications *The use of written specifications, schedules, and drawings to clearly identify what is to be installed, how it is to be installed, and how it is expected to operate *Direct Digital Controls (DDC) components, their inputs and outputs, and the programming of DDC routines *DDC Networks and Protocols *DDC Specification, Installation and Commissioning

Control Systems for Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning, Sixth Edition is complete and covers both hardware control systems and modern control technology. The material is presented without bias and without prejudice toward particular hardware or software. Readers with an engineering degree will be reminded of the psychrometric processes associated with heating and air conditioning as they learn of the various controls schemes used in the variety of heating and air conditioning system types they will encountered in the field. Maintenance technicians will also find the book useful because it describes various control hardware and control strategies that were used in the past and are prevalent in most existing heating and air conditioning systems. Designers of new systems will find the fundamentals described in this book to be a useful starting point, and they will also benefit from descriptions of new digital technologies and energy management systems. This technology is found in modern building HVAC system designs.

Everything that new HVAC&R engineers will be expected to learn, from the leading industry body - ASHRAE.
