3.3 Configuration options 10 / 11 for RA5 and RK5 units The basic configuration (that is, configuration 0) of RA5 and RK5 units has five circular duct connection collars from the top and one rectangular connection from the bottom. This configuration can be arranged in a mirror-wise fashion to position 10 or 11 – this must be specified when ordering as this cannot be done on site.
3.4 Optional configurations of RB5 units There are two basic configurations – 30/0 and 31/0, arranged in a mirror-wise fashion – must be specified when ordering as no changes are possible on site. 30/0 31/0 Configuration 30/0 Configuration 31/0 The following two configurations can be arranged on site; they are versions with different positions of C2+E2 30/1 and 31/1 connections.
Unit assembly and installation The assembly and installation of the unit may only be carried out by a special firm trained by ATREA on the category of products in question. The unit may only be installed within premises designated and specified by this manual.

4.2 Fitting a reducer in RB5 units The reducer is supplied as a standard feature. Before installing the unit, fit the reducer in the appropriate place – the unit’s outlet, and secure using the 4 bolts provided. 4.3 Changing the position of the recirculated air fan outlet in RB5 units Any changes in the position of the recirculated air fan motor should be made before suspending the unit from the ceiling –...
4.4 Connecting the condensate drain The unit must be fitted with a condensate drain. The condensate drain must be fitted as indicated in the drawings. The condensate drain outlets not in use must remain sealed. The condensate drain line must include a trap and lead into a sanitary sewer. The trap must be permanently primed with water. After the unit has been out of operation and then re-commissioned, the trap musts be checked for priming and unobstructed passage.
4.5 Wiring and cable entry point Do not connect the wiring until the unit has been completely mechanically installed and ducts tight-connected. The wiring must be connected with the power supply switched off. DUPLEX RA5 and DUPLEX RK5 DUPLEX RB5...
4.6 Connecting the hot water coil The hot water coil is an optional accessory for all DUPLEX R5 units. If it is included, it is supplied already installed in the unit in its position. The maximum permitted temperature of the heating fluid is 55 °C (treated e.g. by mixing primary heating water or from an automatically controlled source maintaining constant temperature) and operating pressure up to 0.25 MPa.
In the event of fire, any rescue work may only be conducted while using personal protection equipment (safety gloves, eye • protection, a breathing apparatus or mask with filter against organic vapours) • If necessary, call the numbers shown below: 4.10 Installing the zone damper in the bottom outlet in RA5 and RK5 units Shut-off dampers for air distribution plenum boxes under RA5 and RK5 units are an optional accessory.
CP Touch controller The CP Touch controller is used for comprehensive control and programming the unit with RD5-type control systems, a standard feature of all DUPLEX R5 units. It is supplied for wall mounting. It can be mounted on a standard electrical junction box with a hole spacing of 68 mm.
Instrumentation and control, electrical wiring Any work on the control system (replacing / removing sensors, checking connections of individual parts etc.) must be done when the system is not live (after disconnecting the power supply)! 5.1 RD5 control system with CP Touch controller The CP Touch controller can be connected to DUPLEX units fitted with an RD5 control panel.

“Mode” block It shows a mode current at any given time, with options as provided by the unit’s configuration. The current mode parameter may not correspond to the parameter set manually or in the weekly program. If that is the case, the power level required is generated by a closed input D1–...
“Temperature” block It displays temperature in °C currently demanded at any given time. This current temperature demand value may not correspond to the value set manually or in the weekly program. If that is the case, the temperature required is generated by closed input D1 to D4 and parameters set for one of these inputs if a specific temperature for Dn inputs is set.
Note • If outside temperature is higher than Temperature HS/NHS, the Non-heating season option is selected automatically. • If outside temperature is lower than Temperature HS/NHS and at the same time room temperature is higher than the required temperature by more than 5°C, the NHS remains active until outside temperature does not drop below 0°C. •...
School holidays Settings as per user requirements; up to four different holiday periods can be set. School holiday setting steps: Holiday / Party This is a mode set for a limited period of time during which the unit’s operation is other than in regular modes, such as when the unit is normally run according to the weekly program and should be switched temporarily to economy mode for example for a week when there is no occupancy in the house.
Setting the weekly program The weekly program is set separately of the heating and non-heating season. Copying days Settings may be copied between days as shown below: Example of copying: When copying, first check Wednesday in HS and then Thursday in NHS , thereby copying all settings for Wednesday in HS to Thursday in NHS.
Network settings DHCP: When checked, the network is automatically set from the internet; if not checked, the network must be set manually. Note The “Save” button records the values set and also immediately restarts with new values. Texts The” Texts” parameter is used for changing adjustable texts as required. Note The texts can be adjusted as required and are the same as those for setting from the web.
Daylight saving time An option to switch automatically between the daylight saving and standard time. SW information It displays information on the type of the unit, its manufacturing number and the version of the control software. Filter replacement indication In some units, the “Filter replacement” notification is also shown by the button for filter replacement confirmation (by pressing this button the date of subsequent filter replacement is saved).

● The main air filter in the unit is a recirculated air filter, located upstream of the unit’s heat exchangers. The standard type is G4- type fabric filter mats inserted in a frame (G4 as the basic class of filtration, optionally F7 for fine filtration). The basic G4 filtration class can be enhanced with carbon filter fabric to supress odours.
Replacement and maintenance of the main fabric filter for RCA units The procedure is identical for all DUPLEX R5 series units. The filter is placed in front of the internal heat exchangers. After opening the door unlock the latches holding the filter or cassette. Remove the frame from the unit.

6.3 Cleaning the plastic heat recovery exchanger The recommended heat exchanger cleaning interval depends on the nature of the ambient environment of the site of operation, approximately 1-2 years. When required, wash the heat exchanger block several times using warm water with a detergent; water temperature should up to 40°C, ideally the level of temperature should be such that you can keep our hands in without trouble.
• The condensate drain in the door or bottom of the unit for cleanliness. Any condensate drain clogging might lead to serious trouble. • The priming of the condensate drain line, particularly in summer and autumn. If the level is not high enough, there is a risk of air intake from the sewer.
