  • Page 20 index 4.5. Electrical connections HRC The HRC is equipped as standard with a mains lead with shock-proof plug. Optionally, you can replace the rim-earth cord by a perilex cord (article number: 22915405). The zone control is provided with its own 5 volt power supply and must be connected to a wall socket by means of the supplied adapter.
  • Page 21 index Execute HRC with perilex cable The HRC can also be operated with a 3 position switch (CV-3 switch). For this, the HRC must be fitted with a perilex mains lead, which is optionally available. Follow the next steps. Note: Make sure the wall socket is de-energised when changing the wiring.
  • Page 22 index Step 9 Lead the perilex cable through the cable recess. Place the strain relief in the appropriate recess. Step 10 Replace the top cover and tighten the 2 screws.

Step 11 Replace the Perilex cable in the cable clamp on the metal back frame Step 12 Plug the plug into a Perilex socket.
  • Page 23 index 4.6.Placing the appliance Wall mounting The unit can be hung on the wall bracket provided. The wall must have a minimum mass of 200kg/m2 for optimum soundproofing. Step 1 Fix the wall bracket level to the wall using the bolts (M8x60 wood screw) and plugs supplied.
  • Page 24 Floor mounting If there is no wall suitable for wall mounting, the HRC can also be placed on a concrete floor using the optional Orcon undercarriage (article number: 22700080) for floor mounting. Step 1 Insert the feet into the recesses on the underside of the unit (Figure A).
  • Page 25 index 4.7.Connecting zone valves The zone valves must always be placed in two separate supply channels that are connected to two different zones. On the device, the connections for the supply ducts are marked with the following icon: The zone valves can be placed either directly on the unit or externally in the supply duct.
  • Page 26 index Connect zone valves directly to the unit. Step 1 Place the two connecting flanges for the zone valves (with recess) on the inlet connections of the unit marked with the icon: Make sure that the flanges are tightened to the mounting points of the unit, so that the valves are properly positioned.

  • Page 31 index 4.10.Installation accessories In order to determine the zone in which ventilation is required, one or more sensors must be used per zone. The sensor determines the air quality in the room by measuring the content. Depending on the measured content, the zone valves are partially opened or closed.
  • Page 32 index 5. Subscribe components When the HRC including the zone valves has been installed, the various components can be registered. These are registered in accordance with the following steps. Registering zone valves on HRC Connecting sensors to zone valves 5.1.Registering zone valves on HRC The zone valves must be registered on the device.
  • Page 33 index 5.2.Connecting sensors to a zone valve After the zone control has been registered on the HRC, at least one sensor per zone must be registered on the zone valve connected to the relevant zone. Please follow the steps below: Step 1Open the cover on the housing of Zone valve 1 so that the circuit board is visible.
  • Page 34 index Register additional sensors It is possible to connect multiple sensors per zone. For example, when several bedrooms in a zone are equipped with a sensor. For this purpose, the above steps are repeated with each new sensor. If several sensors are placed in one zone, the sensor with the highest value determines the ventilation requirement for the zone concerned.

  • Page 42 index 6.4.Adjusting drain valves The exhaust valves are not zoned. After the supply valves in both zones have been calibrated, the extract valves must be calibrated over the entire house. Set the HRC to position 3 so that both zone valves on the supply air open. Measure the total air quantity on the exhaust valves and check whether you are exhausting enough air per room according to the ventilation calculation made.
