● thermal loss Condensation Condensation in the ducts may occur when the exhaust/outdoor air has high hu- midity. EXHAUSTO recommends a condensation outlet is also fitted at the lowest point in the ducts. Outdoor air intake The outdoor air intake must be dimensioned with sufficiently low airflow to prevent rain and snow being drawn into the duct system.

Handling 3004517-2019-08-28 Pull the fan unit out to the stop (two screws) on the sliding rail. Dismount the motor cable from the motor con- trol on the sliding panel and pull it towards the motor through the rubber grommets. Remove the two sliding rail screws. The fan unit can now be lifted off.
After installation, check the VEX unit is completely level. 3.1.2 Integral mounting base The EXHAUSTO integral mounting base enables the air handling unit to be installed correctly. The base is equipped with adjustable machine shoes, so that the air han- dling unit can be fitted horizontally on a surface that is not level ( +/- 20 mm per me- tre).
Solution with HT Use HT pipe (HT, DN32, DIN4102), if the above solution is not employed (not sup- pipe plied by EXHAUSTO). 3.3 Water heating coil 3.3.1 Principles for connecting the water heating coil Mixing loop The diagrams below are simplified. The dimensioning of valves, pipes, etc. and heating coil connection must always be carried out by authorised fitters in accord- ance with applicable regulations and legislation.

● Use of non-original filters may cause leakage in the VEX unit, impair filter function and cause an extraordinary pressure drop. ● EXHAUSTO recommends that you register the filter replacement date to en- sure filters are replaced at the correct intervals.
Maintenance, hygiene and servicing 3004517-2019-08-28 The outdoor air side of the unit must as a minimum be fitted with an ePM 55% filter (F7) to meet VDI 6022 requirements. 5.3 Servicing and cleaning 5.3.1 Filter replacement Disconnect power at the isolation switch before opening the door.
Maintenance, hygiene and servicing 3004517-2019-08-28 Step 1-9 Action There are two bypass motors on the crossflow heat exchanger. Slightly pull the heat ex- changer out of the VEX and remove the plug from each bypass motor. Hold down the split pin under the plug using a screw driver, see images: Remove the crossflow heat exchanger.
