If you want to adjust the fan speed level in accordance with the level of use of the dwelling/building (amount of people), you can retrofi t a CO sensor. Nilan’s CO sensors calibrate automatically. On the control panel, you select the CO level you want.
However, if you install a Nilan water trap with ball, the ball will ensure permanent function of the water trap. This saves you refi lling the water trap manually every autumn to ensure that it works.
You can control your ventilation unit with a smartphone app via a gateway connection. Connect the Nilan Gateway to a CTS400 or a CTS602 control system. This way, a cloud connection to the unit can be established. The Gateway is available in two different versions - with either a LAN or a WiFi...
Set-up Installation Positioning of the ventilation unit Positioning of the ventilation unit ATTENTION When positioning the unit, you should always consider future service and maintenance. Therefore, we recommend that fl exible connections be fi tted between the ventilation unit and the duct system so that the unit can be easily removed.
If you want to control the supply air temperature, you will need an after-heating element. You can purchase a water after-heating element for installation in Comfort 450 and 600 units. It comes with the required sensor, an expansion PCB and connection to the ventilation unit.

Electrical installation Electrical connections Safety Safety ATTENTION All work must be carried out by qualifi ed persons and in compliance with existing legislation and regulations. ATTENTION It is important that the power is off, if you do work to the electrical components of the unit. It is important to check that wires are not damaged or squeezed during connection and use.
Nilan offers a connection cable with RJ12 plug of 15 m. It is also possible to customize a cable up to 50 m in length. A standard LAN cable is used for this.
Wall bracket Wall bracket Mount the HMI panel on the wall using the integrated wall bracket. The panel should be placed in a visible spot so it is possible to change settings and to monitor warnings or alarms regarding ope- ration of the unit.
Electrical connection accessories User selection 1 User selection 1 User selection 1 is connected via the 8-pin plug mounted on top of the unit. The user selection functions are used to override normal operation. The input signal must come from a potential-free switch. When closed, the function is activated with the settings selected in the control panel under Service / User selection.
User selection 2 User selection 2 With User selection 2, the same options are achieved as with User selection 1. In addition, you get the option of a relay output that can control e.g. a damper or whatever need one may have to control an external function. User selection 2 potential-free input is connected to D3 and User selection 2 output is connected to relay RE2 on the CTS602 Light circuit board.
Fire thermostat / external fi re automation system Fire thermostat / external fire automation system The ventilation unit can be connected to an external fi re thermostat that will stop the ventilation unit in the event of fi re. The same port can be used for connection of an external fi re automation system.
EM-box (damper option) EM-Box (damper option) If you want to run the cooker hood via the ventilation unit, in some cases there may be insuffi cient air for cooker hood extraction. If you install an EM-box, you can regulate the extracted air when the cooker hood is in operation, so that less air is drawn from, for instance, the bathroom and the utility room.
DTBU (damper option) DTBU (damper option) If you want to run the cooker hood via the ventilation unit, in some cases there may be insuffi cient air for cooker hood extraction. An EM-box solution can solve this. However, if there is insuffi cient space in the installation for an EM-box, the alternative may by to connect up a DTBU damper in the duct system.
5. Connect the wires up in accordance with the wiring diagram. ATTENTION The expansion PCB and the connections must be installed by a certifi ed electrician. The expansion PCB is an accessory for the CTS602 circuit board. Nilan does not supply external components.
External electrical pre-heating element External electrical pre-heating element It is possible to purchase an external electrical pre-heating element for frost protection of the ventilation unit. The electrical pre-heating element is mounted in the outdoor air duct before the unit with the necessary temperature sensor. If it is desired to see the actual outdoor air temperature on the control panel, the temperature sensor T1 / T8 must be led out into the duct before the pre-heating element.
Electrical after-heating element Electrical after-heating element If you want to control the supply air temperature, you will need an after-heating element. You can purchase an electrical after-heating element for installation in the supply air duct. It comes with the required sensor, an expansion PCB and connection to the ventilation unit.
Water after-heating element – integral Water after-heating element - integral If you want to control the supply air temperature, you will need an after-heating element. You can purchase a water after-heating element for installation in the supply air duct. It comes with the required sensor, an expansion PCB and connection to the ventilation unit.
sensor sensor If the extent to which a dwelling/building is used varies considerably, you will benefi t from installing a CO -sensor to control the air exchange. The CO -sensor measures the CO -level in the extract air. It then regulates the fan speed level accordingly. ATTENTION In order to be able to connect up a CO -sensor, the ventilation unit must have an expansion PCB.
Joint alarm Joint alarm It may be diffi cult to notice alarms if the unit is located in a place where access is diffi cult or infrequent, and if the control panel is located in the same place. An external alarm indicator in the form of an electric bulb or an acoustic signal can be connected to the ventilation unit and an- nounce when an alarm occurs.
USEFUL INFORMATION As an accessory, Nilan can supply a water trap with ball. When the water trap dries out, the ball closes it off and ensures that air cannot be drawn into the ventilation unit. When condensate water is formed again, it will lift the ball, and the water will be able to drain away without problems.
Plumbing connections accessories Connecting a water trap with ball Connecting a water trap with ball It is important to connect up the water trap in compliance with the measurements below. If the water trap is placed outside the climate screen, it should be protected against frost. Water trap and accessories: 1.
Water heating element with T9 temperature sen- sor and frost thermostat B3 Actuator and regulation valve: Danfoss AME 140/24V 0-10V signal, 2-way valve VZ2 Kv 0.4 (Nilan supplies this). The Kvs value must be checked against the power supply. Return fl ow Differential pressure: 0.1 - 0.6 bar.
Nilan can supply Soundfl ex tubes that you can use as fl exible connections between the ventilation unit and the duct system. They will also reduce sounds from the system considerably.
Supply air Supply air Install supply air valves in living areas. Place them strategically so they cause minimum discomfort. It is, for instance, not recom- mended that you install supply air valves in areas where people are inactive, as the supply air may be experienced as draughty. Living areas may be, for example: •...
Balancing Important information Important information ATTENTION To ensure the ventilation system operates optimally, it is important that it is balanced correctly. We recommend that experts do this. It is important to measure the total supply air and the total extract air. The system must have a minimum vacuum, which means it draw out more air than it blows in.
