The Benefits of ERV Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERV) are designed to supply fresh air to a building while exhausting an equal amount of stale air from the building. An energy savings is Stale Air experienced during the process by reducing the heating (or from Building cooling) requirements.
330ERV ENGINEERING DATA PERFORMANCE TOTAL RECOVERY CORE AIRFLOWS (Each Air Stream) The cross-flow energy recovery core transfers heat and water vapor 450 (212) between the two airstreams. It is easily removed for cleaning or 400 (189) service. MOTORS 350 (165) Two PSC, 3 speed single shafted, 120 VAC, 1.92 Amps each...
730ERV ENGINEERING DATA PERFORMANCE TOTAL RECOVERY CORES AIRFLOWS (Each Air Stream) The cross-flow energy recovery cores transfer heat and water 900 (425) vapor between the two airstreams. They are easily removed for 800 (378) cleaning or service. 700 (330) MOTORS Two PSC, 3 speed single shafted, 120 VAC, 4.5 Amps each 600 (283) (9 total on high speed).
1230ERV ENGINEERING DATA TOTAL RECOVERY CORES PERFORMANCE The cross-flow energy recovery cores transfer heat and water vapor AIRFLOWS (Each Air Stream) between the two airstreams. They are easily removed for cleaning or service. 1600 (755) MOTORS 1500 (708) Two PSC, 3 speed double shafted, 120 VAC, 9.4 Amps each (18.8 1400 (661) total on high speed).
Location of the ERV for Mounting The ERV must be located in a heated space where the A minimum clearance of 30 inches (76 cm) in front of the surrounding air temperature does not fall below 60°F ERV is recommended to service the heat exchanger cores (16°C).
The Ductwork System A properly designed ducting system will allow the ERV to ducting one size larger than the metal equivalent. Use operate at its maximum efficiency. (Air flow will be flexible duct connectors at the ERV to avoid noise restricted by undersized ducting, use of too many elbows, transmission.
Stale Air Return System The stale air return system is used to draw air from the Many commercial activities produce air contaminants in the points in the building where the worst air quality problems form of dusts, fumes, mists, vapors and gases. occur.
The Integrated HVAC System The ERV has become an integral component of the HVAC In installations where it is satisfactory to provide general system. Figure A shows an ERV unit providing fresh air exhaust from the space, the air to be exhausted may be taken directly to the return air plenum of a rooftop heat/cool unit.
Electrical Connections Electrical Connections It is recommended that a licensed electrician make all electrical connections. It is very important that the unit be properly grounded. It is recommended that a separate 15 amp/120 volt circuit be used. WARNING: In order to prevent electric shock when cleaning or servicing the ERV, it is extremely important to confirm the polarity of the power line that is switched by the safety (disconnect) switch whose control arm is located on...
Optional Ventilation Control Part #99-BC-01 The optional 2 speed Ventilation Control offers ON/OFF, High A flashing light indicates the humidity level is higher than the setting Speed/Low speed plus an electronic dehumidistat. and the unit is operating on high speed ventilation. A continuous light indicates the humidity level is lower than the setting.
Function and Controls Basic Functions Setup Speed control is obtained by powering 24V to one of Select appropriate operational speed by installing the the designated speed taps. jumper wire between one of the designated speed taps. (A jumper wire is factory installed in the low speed position.) Example: A jumper between the R terminal and the...
Connecting Optional Digital Controls Standard Series Controls may be installed onto a flush mounted ATTENTION 2" x 4" electrical switch box or it may be surface mounted onto a wall. Pay special attention not to damage the Contact Only 1 master control should be installed to a ventilation system (the Face Plate on this illustration may not be exactly the same as Pins when attaching and detaching the Face Plate.
Balancing the ERV Pitot Tube Airflow Balancing It is necessary to have balanced air flows in an ERV. The volume of any elbows or bends, and one foot upstream of any elbows or air brought in from the outside must equal the volume of air bends.
Service and Maintenance Servicing your ERV on a regular schedule will result in ERV Core optimum operating efficiencies and prolonged life of the equipment. Remove core(s) and vacuum or use low pressurized air to clean core(s). Do not wash or submerse in water. Due to numerous applications in which this equipment can With the core(s) in its proper position, place the bottom be installed, it is difficult to predict servicing intervals.
Troubleshooting Your ERV System SYMPTOM CAUSE SOLUTION Poor Air Flows • 1/4” (6 mm) mesh on the outside hoods is plugged • clean exterior hoods or vents • filters plugged • remove and clean filter • core obstructed • remove and clean core •...
Reverse Installation of the ERV Electrical Box Removal: 10. Remove the snap plug from the hole in the top core support panel, and install a plastic snap bushing in 1. Remove the door panels from the ERV by hole. loosening the screws located on the face of the doors.
