INTRODUCTION This user’s manual combines technical description, operation and service manual, technical data sheet and installation guidelines for the heat (energy, heat and energy) recovery ventilator Vents Frigate ..RV 100 (150) DS, hereinafter referred to as the unit. APPLICATION The unit with heat (energy, heat and energy) recovery is designed to save thermal energy by means of heat and energy recovery and is one of the energy saving components used in the buildings and premises.
.. RV 100 (150) DS UNIT DESIGNATION KEY Frigate ..RV 100(150) DS Mounting design modification D - two recovery cores S - suspended Air capacity [CFM] Unit type HRV - Heat Recovery Ventilator; ERV - Energy Recovery Ventilator (enthalpy); TRV - Total (Heat and Energy) Recovery Ventilator. TECHNICAL DATA The heat (energy) recovery ventilator is designed for indoor application with the ambient temperature ranging from +34 °F (+1 °С) up to +122 °F (+50 °С) and relative humidity up to 80%.
The maximum allowable air parameters for the paper heat recovery core are stated in the table 1. Table 1 Temperature [º С] -30...+60 º С (-22 ºF...140 ºF) Relative humidity [%] 80% Warranty service life is 2 years Service life Operating service life is 5 years SAFETY REQUIREMENTS While operating and mounting unit fulfill the requirements of the present operation manual as well as general requirements of all applicable codes and standards valid in USA and Canada.
.. RV 100 (150) DS STRUCTURE AND OPERATING LOGIC The unit has the following operating logic (fig. 2): Warm stale extract air from the room flows through the air ducts to the unit, is purified in the extract filter and is supplied to the heat recovery core and exhausted outside by exhaust fan. Clean cold air from outside is moved by supply fans to the unit where it is purified through the supply filter. Then clean air flows through the heat recovery core and is supplied to the room by supply fan.
1. Supply fan with backward curved blades and maintenance-free motor with external rotor and integrated thermal protection; 2. Extract fan with backward curved blades and maintenance-free motor with external rotor and integrated thermal protection; 3. Plate cross flow heat recovery core (Vents Frigate ERV 100 (150) DS — paper heat recovery core, Vents Frigate HRV 100 (1500 DS — aluminium heat recovery core, Vents Frigate TRV 100(150) DS - one paper and one aluminium heat recovery core). 4.
.. RV 100 (150) DS This installation example is applicable only for Vents Frigate ERV 100 DS and Vents Frigate ERV 150 DS Fig. 4. Wall unit mounting CONDENSATE DRAINAGE The Vents Frigate HRV 100 (150) DS and Vents Frigate TRV 100 (150) DS units are equipped with a condensate drain hose for condensate drainage (fig. 5). Connect the drain hose (1), U-trap (3) and drain system (5) with metal, plastic or rubber pipes (2 and 4). The pipes must be sloped down at least by 3°.
CONNECTION TO POWER MAINS Cut power supply off before any operations with the unit. The unit shall be connected to power mains by a duly qualified electrician only. Rated values of the electrical parameters are shown on the rating plate. Any modifications of the internal connections are not allowed and will void the warranty. The unit is designed for connection to single-phase ac 120 V / 60 Hz power mains.
.. RV 100 (150) DS UNIT CONTROL The unit is controlled by a three-position speed switch that enables low-speed modes «Low» as well as «Med» and «Stand by» mode which enables total air quality control (fig. 7). Up to five external control devices may be connected to the terminals 2-11 (fig. 7) that turn the unit to high-speed ventilation in case of activation of any of the control devices. Terminals for connection of the remote control devices Three-speed switch Fig. 7.
1. Remote control (Thermostat). Set the three-position switch into the Stand by position to activate the remote control. Remote control (thermostat) functions: Unit turning on/off Setting air flow Displaying indoor air temperature • • • 2. CO2 sensor. Recommended for use in office buildings and public premises. When carbon dioxide concentration exceeds the set point, the unit changes into the High Speed Mode. 3. Humidistat. The humidistat is used for indoor humidity control.
.. RV 100 (150) DS SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE Servicing of the unit is required 3-4 times per year. Besides general cleaning, the following operations are required: 1. Filter maintenance (3-4 times per year). Dirty filters increase air resistance in the system and reduce supply air flow to the premises. Clean or replace the filters as often as required, but at least 3-4 times per year. Clean the filter with running water or a vacuum cleaner. After two cleaning replace the filter.
TROUBLESHOOTING Possible malfunctions and fault handling Problem Possible reasons Power supply is off. The fan(s) do(es) not start running. Thermal fuse is melted. The extract filter is clogged. Cold supply air. The heat recovery core is frozen. Too low set rotation speed. The filters, fans or heat recovery core are clogged. Low air capacity. The ventilation system is clogged or damaged. The impeller(s) is (are) clogged. Noise, vibration. Water leakage Fan screw tightening is loose.
.. RV 100 (150) DS STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION RULES Store the unit in the manufacturer’s original packing box in a ventilation premise with the temperature range from +14 °F (-10 °С) up to +104 °F (+40 °С) and relative humidity less than 60% (at +68 °F (+20 °С)). Vapors or particles which can cause corrosion or damage the insulation or connection tightness are not allowed in the stock. Use hoist equipment for loading and storage operations to prevent the unit falling or excessive oscillation.
