1. 20 Minute Timer
A push button timer can be used to override the wall
control and put the HRV into high speed for 20 minutes.
Connect switches in parallel and connect leads to HRV
terminals I, OC, and OL (See Fig. 13). Push button
locations are ideal in special activity areas, such as,
bathroom,
or
kitchen,
operation is needed for a short period of time.
Note: The 20 minute timer will not function properly unless
HRV wall control is applied and working correctly. Timing
function is internal to electronic circuit board, it is activated by
a momentary contact between OC and OL. The I connection
is to illuminate the push button. The maximum number of
push button timers that can be applied is 5.
2. 60 Minute Adjustable Timer
A 60 minute adjustable timer can also be used to override
wall control and put HRV into high ---speed operation for a
select amount of time. Connect timer in parallel with push
button timers, or to HRV terminals OC and OL (See Fig.
13).
The 60 minute timer will provide a minimum of 10 minutes,
and a maximum of 60 minutes of ventilation at high speed.
