Application Considerations
Electric Reheat
Electric heating coils are applied on VAV terminal units as terminal reheat devices. Electric heat coil
capacity is rated in kilowatts (kW). Coils are available with the total capacity divided into one, two,
or three stages.
Electric heat coils are available in single-phase or three-phase models. This refers to the type of
power source connected to the coil. Single-phase models have resistance elements internally
connected in parallel. Three- phase models have resistance elements internally connected in a
delta or a wye configuration.
The current draw for the electric coil will depend upon whether it is a single-phase coil or a three-
phase coil. The current draw is necessary for determining what size wire should be used to power
the electric coils and how big the primary power fusing should be.
The equations for current draw for these coils are:
VariTrane three-phase electric heat is available in balanced configurations. For example, a 9 kW
three-phase coil, each stage would carry 1/3 or 3 kW of the load.
It is important to note that these coils have certain minimum airflow rates for each amount of kW
heat the coil can supply to operate safely. See Figure 29, p. 40 for minimum air flow rates by unit
inlet size and electric heat kW.
The equation that relates the airflow across an electric coil to the temperature rise and the coil
change in temperature is:
Where
CFM=Minimum airflow rate across the coil
kW=The heating capacity of the electric coil
3145=A constant
DP=The maximum rise in air temperature across the coil (usually 50 degrees F (28 degrees C))
Electric heat coils are available with magnetic or mercury contactors. Magnetic contactors are less
expensive than mercury contactors. However, mercury contactors can be cycled at a more rapid
rate without failing. Mercury contactors are rated for heavier duty use and should be used in as
many applications as possible. For pneumatic applications the electric coils are available with
factory-installed pressure-electric switches.
