Page 7 index 3.2 Operation Bypass In the summer, or when heat recovery is not desirable, the air is not passed through, but past the heat exchanger thanks to a bypass module. This makes it possible to ventilate the home with fresh outside air in the summer situation, during the night, so that the home is relatively cool again in the morning.

Page 9 index 3.4 Duct indicator When connecting the ducts it is important to take into consideration which model is being used - left or right mounting. The connections are indicated on the top of the unit with icons. The unit is supplied as a left model as standard. You can change your apparatus into a right mounted model (see Section 4.3).
Page 10: Installation
Mount the Orcon extractor and supply valves in the various rooms Configure the unit in the desired direction (see Chapter 4.3) If desired, replace the earthed power cord with a perilex power cord...
Page 11 index 4.3 Changing the unit direction The HRC is available in a left or right model. The HRC is by default supplied as a left model. The ducts are therefore are connected to the home on the left side of the unit, and the ducts on the right side of the unit go outside.
Page 12 index 4.4 Electric connectors The HRC is equipped with a earthed power cord as standard. Optionally, you can replace the earthed power cord with a perilex cord (article number: 22915405). The place where the wall socket needs to be fitted is indicated in the figure below.
Page 13 index Place the white connector of the perilex cord on connection X27. Feed the perilex cord through the cable recess. Place the strain relief in the appropriate recess. 10. Screw the strain relief hand tight using a Torx screwdriver (key size T20) 11.

Page 15 index 4.5 Installing the unit Transformer Add-on PCB Menu button Wall mounting The unit can be hung on the supplied wall bracket. But only if the wall has a minimum mass of 200 kg/m is available. Attach the wall bracket to the wall using the bolts and plugs supplied. Caution: mount the wall bracket using a spirit level before you connect the ducts! Sufficient space must be left underneath the wall bracket for the condensation extractor (see chapter 4.7).
Page 16 Floor mounting If there is no wall that is suitable for wall mounting, the HRC can also be placed on a concrete floor using the optional Orcon base (article number: 22700080) for floor mounting. Place the legs in the recesses on the bottom of the unit (Figure A). This works best when the unit is on its side.
Page 17 index Air outlet Air supply Unit fitted with correct filters HRC (install using spirit level) Connect condensation drain according to installation instructions Connect the supply duct using acoustic insulation Connect the extractor duct using acoustic insulation Feed exhaust and supply duct through the roof boarding in such a way that no condensation water is created in the roof boarding and everything is airtight;...
Page 18 index 4.7 Condensation extractor The HRC must always be fitted with a condensation extractor underneath the unit. It is preferable to use a dry siphon (article number: 22700065), which can be ordered separately. Because this requires less space underneath the unit, there is less chance of air leaks and it does not dry out on hot days, which prevents odour issues.

index 5. Installation components 5.1 Remote control 15RF (optional) Mounting The remote control can be opened using the push button at the bottom (image below). The wall frame can then be mounted with the 2 screws and plugs supplied or glued. Caution: the "UP" mark on the wall frame must always be at the top. Keep enough space at the bottom so that the push button can be easily reached from below.
Page 20 index • Resetting remote control 15RF To replace a remote control, all components on the unit must be de-registered. All components must then be registered again. A remote control can be reset (and thus de-registered) by simultaneously pressing the ‹absent› and ‹timer› keys for 3 seconds.
Page 21 index 5.2 CO Roomsensor 15RF Mounting The CO Roomsensor and CO Controlsensor can be opened via the push button on the bottom. The remote control is supplied with 230V mains power. To connect the control to 230V, open the cover for the power supply. This can be opened using a flat head screwdriver.
Page 22 index Register CO Roomsensor 15RF • On 1 unit Remove the plug from the HRC for 10 seconds. Then return the plug back to the socket. The unit will remain in set-up mode for 3 minutes. Restart the CO sensor by removing it from the wall frame and then replacing it. Press the control button on the CO sensor once briefly, then hold down for 4 seconds until one LED on the right lights up and the status LED flashes red and green alternately.
Page 23 index There are 2 options: • Energy-saving mode (green) In this mode the unit will ventilate according to the standard requirement. This saves on energy costs; ventilation is only done when it is really needed. • Excellent mode (blue) In this mode, the CO Roomsensor keeps the air quality level at a high level.
Page 24 After this, the LED on the printed circuit board will remain in set-up for 3 minutes and can be linked with components. If you need support with the installation of the above components, you can always consult our instruction videos at: www.orcon.nl/service/onderhoud/...
Page 25: Adjustment
Restart the unit and adjust the unit to setting 2 or 3 Measure the total air volume on the Orcon extractor and supply valves and adjust the air volume for each ventilator if necessary Set the valves to the correct flow rate per room 10.

Page 27 index 6.2 Valves You should preferably use TFF supply valves or EFF extractor valves. When installing the valves, consider the following: • Make sure the supply and extractor valves are at least 1.5 m away from each other so that the airflows cannot come into contact with each other •...

7. Maintenance and Service 7.1 Maintenance The following components of the Orcon ventilation system must be cleaned regularly: • Filters (cleaned every 3 months and replaced every 6 months, see user manual); • Humidity sensor (at least every 3 years);...
Page 29 index • The humidity sensor can remain in place or easily be removed from the connector. It can then be cleaned carefully using a dry brush. • If the humidity sensor has been removed for cleaning, replace it in the connector after cleaning.

Page 30 index Cleaning the heat exchanger The heat exchanger can easily be taken out of the unit with the help of the draw band. The heat exchanger must be cleaned with lukewarm water (max. 40°C). Allow most of the water to drain out and dry the heat exchanger as far as possible before replacing it in the unit.
Page 31 index Cleaning ventilators The ventilators must be cleaned if they are dirty. The ventilators can be easily reached when the heat exchanger has been removed from the unit. First push down the ventilator module Pay attention to recess in exchange slightly.
Page 32 index Caution: After replacing the ventilators, they need to be reallocated. The correct allocation is very important for the correct operation of the balance ventilation unit! Disconnect the power supply to both fans on the printed circuit board and unplug the earthed plug from the socket Put the earthed plug back in the socket, wait 10 seconds and pull it out again Connect the supply ventilator power supply to the printed circuit board (connector X13)
Page 33 Check whether the ventilation unit is connected to the power supply. Register the CO Roomsensor on the ventilation unit according to the instructions. If a malfunction occurs in the CO Roomsensor, then the status LED will 1x flash red repeatedly. Please contact the Orcon service department.
Page 34 index III. Display The unit has a display on the front (see image below). This display shows the status of the unit by means of a green and a red LED and any error messages are displayed (status LED). An overview of possible indications is shown in the table under 7.2 IV. Printed circuit board IV.
Page 35 index Set-up mode In the set-up mode, the green LED will burn continuously for 3 minutes. In set-up mode, it is possible to connect multiple RF components to the unit, see chapter 8 for this. In operation After the learning mode, the unit will automatically switch to 'in operation mode'. The unit is working properly.
Page 36 index Temperature sensor fault When a fault occurs with one of the sensors, the display and the printed circuit board indicate which sensor is malfunctioning. See the connection diagram on page 15 for which sensor is connected to which connector. To verify whether the sensor is defective, you can disconnect it from the connector and measure it (10 kΩ...
