Unit Overview
Basic Unit
The ERVe units are prewired such that when a call
for outside air is made (via field supplied 24 VAC
control signal wired to unit control center), the supply
fan, exhaust fan and energy wheel are energized and
optional motorized dampers open. The ERVe is normally
slaved (24 volt) to the roof top air handler. When the roof
top air handler starts, the auxiliary contactor in the air
handler closes to start the ERVe.
Summer Operation
Outdoor air is preconditioned (temperature and moisture
levels are decreased) by the transfer of energy from the
cooler, drier exhaust air via the energy recovery wheel.
The preconditioned air is typically mixed with return air
going back to the air handler for final conditioning.

Winter Operation
Outdoor air is preconditioned (temperature and moisture
levels are increased) by the transfer of energy from the
warmer, more humid exhaust air via the energy recovery
wheel. The preconditioned air is typically mixed
with return air going back to the air handler for final
conditioning.
