Description
The Carrier HH57AC078 Enthalpy Sensor is a precision-engineered sensing device designed to measure the enthalpy (combined heat and moisture content) of outdoor air, enabling HVAC systems to make intelligent economizer decisions. By accurately detecting when outdoor air conditions are favorable for free cooling, this sensor helps optimize energy efficiency and reduce mechanical cooling loads in commercial and light commercial applications.
How It Works
Enthalpy sensors measure both temperature and relative humidity simultaneously to calculate the total heat content of the air. The HH57AC078 provides the control system with real-time enthalpy data, allowing the economizer to open or close the outdoor air damper based on whether outside air is more or less energy-efficient to condition than return air. This results in significant energy savings and improved indoor comfort.
Key Features
