Electrical work

All electrical installations and cabling must be installed in compliance with relevant regulations by an authorised electrician.
Ensure that the unit is disconnected from the power supply before maintenance and/or electrical works.
The unit must be disconnected before an insulation test on the property.
The power supply to the unit must be connected via an all-pole safety switch with at least 3 mm switching distance. This is not part of the supply from Flexit.

Main supply (mains cable)
See section 15 Technical data for dimensions of fuses and connection cables. See also chap. 8. Main connection page 26 for more information about connection to 3N~400 V versus 3~230 V.

Earth-leakage circuit breaker

Main connection
Incoming electrical cables are connected to the terminal below, which is adapted to the relevant mains network. 3 N~400 V is standard. The unit can be converted to 3~230 V. This applies only in Norway.

Commissioning

The unit must not be started until all documentation has been studied and all electrical fitting and plumbing work has been performed.
Refer to guideline 118076 for more information on start up and use of the control system.

1| Familiarise yourself well with the documentation for the automatic control system
---|---
2| Check that the network settings are correct. For 230V 3~Phase, the unit and electric battery (if installed) must be switched *.
3| Start the unit as described in the documentation for the automatic control.
4| Program the various operating times and speeds (possibly including stop)
5| Check that the correct temperature regulation and temperature settings have been selected. Are the sensors located correctly?
6| Check that the fans rotate freely.
7| If outdoor air dampers and extract air dampers are installed, check that they are working. The unit must not be operated with closed air dampers!
8| Check that all doors are properly closed.
9| Check that the heat recovery system works correctly.
10| If a heating battery is installed, check that the heat control is working correctly.
11| If the unit has a water battery, you must test the frost function. Cool the frost sensor to below 5 °C. The unit should stop and the air dampers close.

The electric battery is not preconfigured as either 230 or 400V.  It must always be jumpered when it is connected.

Adjustment of throttle dampers
Adjust the pressure balance over the rotor
To set the correct pressure balance over the rotor and minimize the risk of leakage between extract air and supply air, an adjustment air damper is fitted to the extract air muff on the unit. This can be adjusted to prevent extract air from leaking over to the supply air via the rotor.

Hoses for pressure measurement are installed inside (S models) the unit.

NOTICE! If the damper is not to be used, it should be removed from the unit – otherwise it may decrease the amount of air from the unit.

Connect the pressure gauge with the –hose to A (blue hose in the unit) and the +hose to B (red hose in the unit). Run the unit at the correct operating point for the system in question.
The negative pressure in the extract air part must be 0–20Pa higher than in the supply air part (the instrument must display negative pressure).
If it is not, adjust with air damper DA3 (on the extract air muff) until the correct pressure is reached.

Maintenance

General maintenance
All electrical power to the unit must be shut off before carrying out service or maintenance.

1. Switch off the unit in the following menu on the handheld terminal:
   Start page > SERVICE SWITCH – select OFF.

2. Wait until the unit has stopped.

3. Switch off the all-pole switch.

The system should be inspected regularly. This must be performed by qualified operating personnel.
The inspection should be performed twice a year, preferably in the spring and autumn.
If a water battery is used to heat the air, check the system for water leaks.
Listen for abnormal sounds and check for abnormal vibrations. Check at regular intervals that the air intake is free of snow and leaves.
The inspection and maintenance of fans, recovery systems, air dampers, filters and heating batteries are essential to achieve optimal performance.
Do not use detergent that is harmful to aluminum or the environment.

therefore usually necessary to clean the rotor. If it should however be necessary, dust can be removed with a soft brush. Further cleaning is possible by removing the rotor, spraying it with a grease solvent and then blowing it clean from the opposite side. Distance approximately 60 mm and max. pressure 8.0 bar. Check the drive belt and tighten it if necessary. Check that all seals around the rotor are intact and tight.| Where required
Damper| The air damper plates are suspended in plastic bearings and do not need lubrication. The individual air damper plates are connected via an arm system that does not need lubrication either. Check every year that the air damper is tight. If the air damper is not properly tight, it can be corrected by adjusting the air damper motor or possibly adjusting the arm tension.| Check once a year
Filter| How frequently filters need replacing depends on the dust concentration in the air that passes through the filters. It is very important to replace filters to ensure that the system works properly. Filters must be replaced when the filter replacement lamp on the control panel lights up. They must be replaced at least once a year.| 1-2 times a year
Electric battery| Inspect the cables to the electric battery at least twice a year. Check for damaged cables and components. Check tighten all terminal blocks for power supply to the electric battery (elements, contactors, SSR) and other terminal blocks.| Twice a year
Water battery| The water battery will be exposed to dirt very rarely, as the system has filters fitted with a high tightness class. If cleaning still is necessary, you can use compressed air, which is blown in the opposite direction to the air flow, or a vacuum cleaner with a soft nozzle. Cleaning must be done carefully to ensure that the battery’s fins are not damaged.|

Capacity and sound data
For control and calculation of SFTINT and SFPLimit use FlexitSelect.

Supply air side

Extract air side

Using the capacity diagram:
A diagram consists of a number of curves and axes which allow various types of data to be read off for the unit.

1. Capacity curves (blue)
   These curves show the total available pressure and the air flow rate characteristic for the unit. The available pressure is read off to the left of the diagram. The air flow rate is read off in m3/h at the bottom of the diagram and in l/s at the top of the diagram.
   The various curves indicate different settings in %applied (0 – 100% = 0 – 10 V).

2. Operation curves (black)
   These curves show how air flow rate and pressure change at different operating levels (fan speed).

3. Power consumption curves (green)
   These curves show energy consumption for the fan at each operating level in watts. The power consumption is read off the scale to the right of the diagram. The various curves indicate different settings in % applied (0 – 100%= 0 – 10 V).

4. Sound curves (red)
   These curves indicate values for the sound power level LwA of the duct at the various operating levels. To find the sound power level of the duct in the various octave bands, take the value read off in the diagram and correct it using the values in the table below the diagram for each octave. This produces the sound power level per octave.

5. Correction axes (light green)
   Here you can read off the change in pressure when a water battery is used for heating. This pressure drop
   is deducted from the available pressure. This pressure increase is added to the available pressure.

Data for supply air is measured in accordance with ISO 5136, the “In-duct method”. Radiated sound is measured in accordance with ISO 9614-2. Bruel & Kjær measuring equipment, type 2260.
