DynoAir™ conditions any ambient

point, located inside the green

boundary, to a precise 70ºF DB, and

a precise dew point as selected by

the operator, between 45ºF and 55ºF.

The DynoAir™ system was created to meet an urgent need in the ever more competitive sport of auto racing.Delivering 100% outdoor air with precision temperature and humidity control, DynoAir™ enhances the accuracyand reliability of engine dynamometer testing. The effect of changes in ambient temperature and humidity areno longer a factor when testing engine performance using DynoAir™. Whether it is hot, cold, wet, or dry outdoors,DynoAir™ conditions the air to be supplied to the engine carburetor at the temperature and humidity conditionrequired – accurate to +/- 0.25ºF and +/- 2.5% RH*.

DynoAir™ packaged systems are manufactured by Des Champs Laboratories Incorporated of Natural Bridge Station, VA,a unit of Entrodyne Corporation. DynoAir™ systems are distributed and installed by Stowe Enterprises, Incorporated ofMooresville, NC. For 27 years, Des Champs has been a recognized leader in the manufacture of quality energy recoveryand precision air conditioning systems. Stowe Enterprises is a highly respected contracting firm that has served theautomotive racing industry for more than 10 years.

Des Champs and Stowe Enterprises worked together to develop the DynoAir™ system. Merging state-of-the-art air condi-tioning technology and engineering with more than 10 years of expertise in servicing the demanding needs of the ra c i n gi n d u s t r y, DynoAir™ is exactly what high performance engine test engineers have long dreamed of.

The DynoAir™ precision air conditioning system is built for years of reliableoperation with minimal maintenance. The industrial quality, heavy-dutyconstructed unit ships fully assembled for outdoor installation on a con-crete slab, roof curb, or structural steel support frame. Heating, cooling,dehumidification, and humidification systems are integral to the unit. ADDC control system is factory mounted and wired for precise control of all

unit functions. The control algorithm responds to the outdoor air temperature and humidity condition by automaticallyadding or removing moisture, and heating or cooling as required to achieve the desired set point conditions.

With DynoAir™, the uncertainty in your engine test results, caused by day to day changes in air temperature and humidi-ty, is one less variable of concern. DynoAir™ elevates the standard in engine testing to a higher level, allowing you to bemore confident that you are making the correct engine component adjustments.

* At supply air dry bulb temperature set point of 70ºF, supply air dew point set point between 45ºF and 55ºF, and ambient conditions from winter extreme of 20ºF DB/50%RH to summer extreme of95ºF DB/77ºF WB.

Benefits of DynoAir• Allows for more accurate and reliable engine testing all year long• State-of-the-art temperature and humidity controls permit engine testing on your time schedule… regardless

of the weather• Provides for an elevated level of confidence in making the correct engine component adjustments• Permits optimization of engine performance over a wide range of anticipated on track temperature and

humidity conditions• Gives you one more tool to achieve success

Unit Casing and Floor: 2" galvannealed steel double wall (18ga. outer skin with 22ga. inner liner). 2" 1.5-lbs. insulation secured between inner & outer walls. Interior of unitshall be aluminum in humidifier and coil sections. Exterior of unit shall be painted with two coats acrylic latex paint. Hinged access doors shall be provided for inspection/mainte-nance of all sections of unit. Access doors shall be gasketed, insulated, double-wall constructed with full-length stainless steel piano-type hinges for rigidity and airtight enclosure.Two heavy duty cast aluminum, adjustable, handle-type door latches shall be furnished for each door. Floor shall be constructed of all-welded 16-gauge aluminized steel, and shallbe insulated with 2-inch closed cell foam insulation. Floor shall be coated with tile clad epoxy paint. Multiple floor drains shall be provided to route moisture out either side orbottom, through 1-1/2 inch NPT drain connections. All drains must be trapped separately and heat traced as required.

Filters: 2" 30% outdoor air filters with differential pressure gauge for dirty filter indication (factory furnished and installed)

Precool/Reheat Heat Exchanger: Counterflow 5 row aluminum heat pipe air-to-air heat exchanger housed in stainless steel casing.

Supply Fan and Drive: Airfoil plenum type, belt driven with high efficiency EPACT ODP motor sized to handle up to 2.0" E.S.P.. Fan chassis to be spring isolated.

Cooling & Dehumidification Coil: DX coil with copper tubes, aluminum fins, and stainless steel casing. A sloped stainless steel drain pan shall be provided under DX coil.

Air Cooled Condensing Unit (ACCU): DLI ACCU sized to deliver 100% outdoor air at a 45°F dewpoint (70°F dry bulb) with 95°F DB/77°F WB ambient. ACCU to be integral-ly mounted and fully factory piped. ACCU shall have a minimum EER of 11.6 and shall have four steps of control. All refrigerant specialties, including TXV’s, etc. shall be furnishedand factory installed. A five-year compressor warranty shall be included. Condenser coil has copper tubes, aluminum fins, and galvanized steel casing.

Intake Hood With Bird Screen: Factory mounted, special design to minimize water entry into unit.

Dampers: Low leak, galvanized steel outdoor air shutoff damper with two-position actuator & control. Aluminum heat exchanger face & bypass dampers (for control ofprecool/reheat) with modulating actuator and control

Electrical: Single point wiring connection to unit mounted disconnect on AHU electrical panel. Power feed may be 460V/3 phase, 230V/3 phase, or 208V/3 phase (customer tospecify at time of order). Fused branch motor circuit, fused control transformer, motor starter, Johnson Metasys DX9100 DDC controller and terminals for interconnecting controlwiring included in AHU electrical panel.

As the ambient dry bulb temperaturerises above 20°F, unit will be capable of controlling supply air at dry bulb temperatures greater than 70°F. Similarly, at summer part load conditions, unit can deliver air colder than70°F while still maintaining 45°F dew point. In the winter, as the ambient dew point rises above the design condition of 20°F/50%RH, unit may control supply air at dew pointsabove 55°F.

DynoAir™ is available in three standard sizes: 1500 CFM (serves one engine dynamometer), 2000 CFM (serves one engine dynamometer with reserve capacity for the future), and3000 CFM (serves two engine dynamometers).
