DESIGNATION KEY

TECHNICAL DATA

The unit is designed for indoor application with the ambient temperature ranging from +1 °C up to +40 °C and relative humidity up to 60 % without condensation. In cold, damp rooms, there is a possibility of freezing or condensation inside and outside the casing.
In order to prevent condensation on the internal walls of the unit, it is necessary that the surface temperature of the casing is 2-3 °C above the dew point temperature of the transported air.
The unit should be operated continuously, and in cases where ventilation is not necessary, reduce the air flow of the fans to a minimum (20%). This will ensure a favorable indoor climate and reduce the amount of condensation inside the unit, which can damage electronic components. Never use the unit for dehumidification, for example, of new buildings.
The unit is rated as a Class I electrical appliance.
Hazardous parts access and water ingress protection rating:
IP20 for the unit connected to the air ducts
IP44 for the unit motors
The unit design is constantly being improved, thus some models may be slightly different from those described in this manual.

DESIGN AND OPERATING PRINCIPLE

UNIT OPERATION LOGIC
Heat Recovery mode: warm stale extract air from the room flows into the unit, where it is filtered by the extract filters, then air flows through the heat exchanger and is exhausted outside by the extract fan. Cold fresh air from the outside flows into the unit, where it is cleaned by the supply filters. Then the air flows through the heat exchangers and is directed to the room with the supply fan. Heat energy of warm extract air is transferred to clean intake fresh air from the outside and warms it up. The air flows are fully separated while flowing through the heat exchanger. Heat recovery minimizes heat losses, which reduces the cost of space heating in the cold season.
Summer Cooling mode: the bypass damper is opened, the intake air that is supplied to the premises bypasses the heat exchanger and its temperature doesn’t change.
The units have three frost protection modes (danger of freezing appears when the exhaust air temperature downstream of the heat exchanger is lower than +5 °C and intake air temperature upstream of the heat exchanger is lower than -3 °C):
— gradual reduction of the supply fan speed
— with the bypass
— with the electric preheater (if the unit is equipped with a preheater)
Mode selection and settings are described in the control system user’s manual.

UNIT DESIGN
The units are available in left-hand and right-hand design. Choosing the right arrangement can improve the ease of installation, shorten the length of the ducts and reduce the number of air duct bends.

DVUT 1200 HB E2 EC unit design

1 – air dampers 2 – G4 supply filter 3 – F7 supply filter (option) 4 – preheater 5 – supply fan 6 – SETUP MODE button 7 – louver shutters for adjusting supply air direction 8 – extract fan 9 – reheater 10 – control unit 11 – differential pressure switch of the extract filter 12 – G4 extract filter 13 – differential pressure switch of the supply filter 14 – terminal block for internal connections 15 – bypass damper 16 – counter-flow heat exchanger
The unit is equipped with a service door for technical and maintenance operations. Opening the service door while the unit is running will lead to its shut down. The unit design enables installation of a bypass duct with a bypass damper to route the intake air stream without contacting the heat exchanger.
The unit is equipped with differential pressure switches to control filter clogging.

Additional equipment for the unit is available on a separate order.

• Humidity sensor. The unit with an installed humidity sensor maintains a set indoor humidity level. As the extract air humidity rises above the set point, the system automatically switches to the maximum speed. As the humidity drops down below the set point the unit returns to the previous mode.
• CO2 sensor. Measures the level of concentration of carbon dioxide in the room and generates a signal that controls the performance of the fan. Air flow control based on CO2 concentration is an efficient energy saving solution.
• VOC sensor. Qualitative assessment of air saturation with contaminants (cigarette smoke, exhaled air, solvent and detergent vapours).
• The sensor sensitivity can be adjusted with regards to the expected maximum level of air pollution. Enables on-demand ventilation which results in considerable energy savings as air is exchanged only upon reaching the preset level of pollution.

MOUNTING AND SET-UP

READ THE USER’S MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING THE UNIT.

While choosing the mounting location provide enough access for maintenance or repair work.

The unit is designed for mounting to a horizontal surface adjacent to the wall with the ready-made holes for the air ducts. Lower the supports on the feet of the unit. During operation, the unit must stand on supports. By adjusting the height of the supports, achieve a strictly horizontal unit position.
To get the best performance of the unit and to minimize turbulence-induced air pressure losses, connect the straight air duct section to the unit spigots.
Minimum straight air duct length:
• equal to 1 air duct diameter on the intake side
• equal to 3 air duct diameters on outlet side
If the air ducts are too short or not connected, protect the unit parts from ingress of foreign objects. To prevent uncontrollable access to the fan, the spigots may be covered with a protecting grille or other protecting device with mesh width not more than 12.5 mm. The unit sections are equipped with feet with rollers and supports.
By turning the adjusting screw head, the unit can be mounted on rollers or on supports.

CONDENSATE DRAINAGE
The models without a drain pump are equipped with condensate drain pipes.

Connect the drain system to the spigots.

1 – drain pipe (Ø 20 mm) 2 – coupling 3 – L-shaped bend (Ø 20 mm) 4, 6 – connection pipe 5 – U-trap 7 – sewage system
A separate drainage system must be connected to each drain pipe. Connect the drain pipe, bend, U-trap and the sewage system with metal, plastic or rubber connection pipes.
While laying the connection pipes provide the slope of minimum 3° downwards. Before starting operation, provide free drainage for the condensed water, otherwise it is accumulated inside the unit that may cause the equipment damage and condensate outflow to the room. Fill up the U-trap with water before using it.
For the units with a drain pump make sure that the flexible hose (Ø 6 mm) from the pump is connected to the sewage system.
The drain pump provides timely pumping of the condensed water from the unit.

**** THE CONDENSATE DRAINAGE SYSTEM IS DESIGNED FOR NORMAL OPERATION IN PREMISES WITH AIR TEMPERATURES ABOVE 0 °C!
IF THE EXPECTED AMBIENT AIR TEMPERATURES ARE BELOW 0 °C, THE CONDENSATE DRAINAGE SYSTEM MUST BE EQUIPPED WITH HEAT INSULATION AND PREHEATING FACILITIES.

TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE

**** DISCONNECT THE UNIT FROM POWER SUPPLY BEFORE ANY MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS!
MAKE SURE THE UNIT IS DISCONNECTED FROM POWER MAINS BEFORE REMOVING THE PROTECTION

Maintenance operations of the unit are required 3-4 times per year. They include general cleaning of the unit and the following operations:

1. Filter maintenance.
   Dirty filters increase air resistance in the system and reduce supply air volume. The filters require cleaning not less than 3-4 times per year. Clean the filter with a vacuum cleaner or replace it with a new one. To clean the filters, remove them from the unit. For new filters, contact the Seller.

2. Heat exchanger maintenance (once per year).
   Some dust may accumulate on the heat exchanger even in case of regular maintenance of the filters. To maintain the high heat recovery efficiency, regular cleaning is required. To clean the heat exchanger, remove it from the unit and clean the heat exchanger by using compressed air or a vacuum cleaner. After cleaning, reinstall the  eat
   exchanger into the unit.

3. Fan maintenance (once per year).
   Even in case of regular maintenance of the filters, some dust may accumulate inside the fans and reduce the fan performance and supply air flow.
   To access the fans, remove the protection plates (secured with the screws).
   Clean the fans with a soft cloth, brush, or using compressed air.
   Do not use water, aggressive solvents, or sharp objects as they may damage the impeller.
   

4. Ductwork system maintenance (once in 5 years).
   Even regular fulfilling of all the maintenance operations prescribed above may not completely prevent dirt accumulation in the air ducts, which leads to air pollution and reduces the unit capacity. Duct maintenance means regular cleaning or replacement.
