2.2 Refrigeration
Cycle
a) Humidistat
or Hygrostat is a controller, sensitive
to the amount of humidity in the air.
b) Thermostat
a controller which responds to
changes in temperature.
c) Pressure Regulators
are instruments sensitive to changes
in pressure. They may control a
single pressure or a differential
between two pressures.

2. Actuating or Operating
Devices
a) Dampers
These control the flow of air and are
in the form of louvers.
b) Control Valves
These are valves with variable
orifices which are moved by motors
to present smaller or larger
openings as directed by a
thermostat.
c) Relays
These are devices that use electrical
energy to amplify or convert the
power of a thermostat or other
controllers so that the resultant force
will be sufficient and adaptable to
operate a valve or damper.
