How do the motor speed taps on the DURASTAR DRF2TA2421ASTNJB3F air handler operate?
All DRF2TA air handlers have 5-speed constant torque motors. The speed taps are used as follows:
• Speed tap 1 is for continuous fan.
• Speed tap 2 (low static) and speed tap 3 (high static) are for lower tonnage (1.5 or 2.5 tons).
• Speed tap 4 (low static) and speed tap 5 (high static) are for higher tonnage (2.0 or 3.0 tons).
• The air handlers are always shipped from the factory at speed tap 5.
The low static speed taps (2 and 4) are for external static pressures below 0.5″ WC. The high static speed taps (3 and 5) are used for external static exceeding 0.5″ WC. To change the speed, move the blue wire to the appropriate speed tap on the motor terminal block as required by the application.
The airflow for the continuous fan (speed tap 1) is always set at 50% of the speed tap 4.
