Hi Chris,
Currently, our specs are:
Temp: 68 deg F +/- 1 deg
RH: 45% +/- 5%
If you are having problems meeting your temp/RH spec in summer, you need to
do several things. First, make sure the current airhandling system is set
up correctly, and if it is, then you need to increase you cooling capacity.
To make sure your current air handling system if functioning correctly, you
need to make sure all the components are operating within specifications.
This includes air flow rate and temp delta across the coils, water flow
rate and temp delta through the coils, input and output temp across the
chiller, correct operation of control valves, etc. If all these things are
within spec, then you are exceeding the capacity of you chiller. The only
way to fix that is to add capacity by adding a second chiller, or replacing
your current chiller with a new one that has higher capacity.
We are in the process of purchasing a new, higher capacity chiller.
Good luck,
Jack
