The filter type is labelled on the top of the filter 9.2.1.3 Heat exchanger SAVE VSR 150/B is equipped with two rotating heat exchangers. Required supply air temperature is therefore normally maintained without adding additional heat. The heat exchanger is removable for cleaning and maintenance, see “User Manual” for more information.
| Service The re-heater is activated by a relay and switches on if the supply air temperature is lower than the set point and switches off if one or more of the following conditions are met: 1. If the supply air temperature is above the set point. 2.
