Product Description

2.1 Internal Components Topvex TR800-4000 Fig. 1 Internal components with air connection symbols

Table 1 Internal components with air connection symbols

2.2 Description of Internal Components
2.2.1 Supply and Extract Air Fans
The fans have external rotor motors of EC type which can be steplessly controlled individually 0 – 100%. It is possible to program the speed in 2 steps (normal/reduced) depending on the programming of the week schedule. The motor bearings are permanently lubricated and maintenance free. It is possible to remove the fans for cleaning. (Chapter 5)
2.2.1.1 Pressure Transmitter and clogged filter alarm
Two pressure transmitters maintain the airflow at a constant level (CAV) by measuring the differential pressure over the inlet cone of the fan impellers. The pressure transmitters are installed from factory in all units. An accessory kit is available to convert the unit to a VAV in order to maintain a constant pressure in the duct. See “VAV Installation Instructions” manual (420300) for more information.
In addition, the pressure transmitters measures the differential pressure over the supply and extract air filters. When the pressure drop reaches the set value an alarm is triggered in the main controller. The differential pressure can be set between 0.2 in.wg. (40Pa) and 1.2 in.wg. (300 Pa). The pressure switch is preset from factory to 1.0 in.wg. (240 Pa).

2.2.2 Outdoor and Extract Air Filters and Pre-Filter**
The filters are of bag filter type with filter quality MERV13 for the outdoor air filter and MERV9 for the extract air filter. The filters need to be replaced when dirty. New sets of filters can be acquired from your installer or wholesaler.
The pre-filter(s) is of a screen type and can be cleaned by using soap water or compressed air. It can be acquired from installer or wholesaler. **(only with units with pre-heater)

2.2.3 Heat Exchanger
Topvex TR models are equipped with a highly efficient, belt driven, rotating heat exchanger. Required supply air temperature is therefore normally maintained without adding additional heat. The operation of the heat exchanger is automatic and depends on the set temperature. An extra driving belt is included on the rotor on delivery (pos.6 figure 1).
The heat exchanger is removable for cleaning and maintenance. (Chapter 5)

2.2.3.1 Rotor Motor
The rotor motor drives the exchanger rotor with a constant rotational speed as long as there is a heat demand.
The motor is controlled by an on/off digital control signal (pos.5 figure 1).

2.2.3.2 Rotation Sensor
A sensor registers the rotation of the heat exchanger rotor. It’s connected to the main controller which gives an alarm if the rotor stops while there is a heat demand (pos.7 figure 1).

2.2.4 Temperature Sensors
In Topvex FR800-3800 all temperature sensors are mounted and wired inside the unit except for the supply air sensor, which is delivered uninstalled with the unit and needs to be installed in the supply air duct externally from the unit. See Installation instruction for more detailed information.

• Supply air sensor
• Extract air sensor
• Outdoor air sensor
• Exhaust air sensor
• Extra unit sensor

In Topvex FR800-3800 all temperature sensors are mounted and wired inside the unit except for the supply air sensor, which is delivered uninstalled with the unit and needs to be installed in the supply air duct externally from the unit. See Installation instruction for more detailed information.

2.2.5 Hydronic Heater for TR800-4000
In units equipped with a hydronic pre-heater, the water coil is located below the outside air connection. In units equipped with a hydronic re-heater, the water coild is located below the supply air connection. The coil material is copper piping with a frame of galvanized sheet steel and aluminun fins. Both pre-heater & reheater are equipped with a frost protection sensor.
Both hydronic pre-heater and re-heater function outputs are modulated by the unit control in order to maintain their respective air temperature set points.
For Topvex TR800-4000 units without pre-heater and/or re-heater, a heating water coil can be equipped inside the unit. See “HWC-EPH Installation Instructions” manual (420353) for correct procedure.

2.2.6 Electrical Heater for TR800-1800
In unites equipped with an electric pre-heater, the heating rods are located below the outdoor air connection. In units equipped with a built in electric re-heater (EL units only), the heating rods are located belowthe supply air connection. The heater material is stainless steel. Both electric heaters have automatic and manual overheating protection. The manual overheat protection is reset by pushing the reset button on the electrical (see figure 3).
Both electric pre-heater and re-heater function outputs are modulated by the unit control in order to maintain their respective air temperature set points.
For Topvex FR800-1600 units without pre-heater, an electric heater can be equipped inside the unit. See “HWC-EPH Installation Instructions” manual (420353) for correct procedure.

4.4 Free Cooling Description

This function is used during the warm period to save energy by using cold outdoor air, e.g. during night time, to cool down the building.
Note
The following is only valid if the free cooling function is set to Active in the program menu.
Free cooling is only activated when the following starting conditions are met

Starting conditions:

• Less than 4 days have passed since the unit was last in running mode
• The outdoor temperature during the previous running period exceeded a set limit (71.6°F (22 °C))
• It is between 00:00 and 07:00:00 in the day (settable)
• The timer outputs for normal speed, Extended running normal and External stop are Off
• The timer channel will be On sometime during the recently started 24 hours.

The unit checks the night temperature (indoor and outdoor temperature) during 3 minutes at the set starting hour when the fans are started so that the sensors can perform a temperature measurement. If above conditions are met the free cooling function is started, if not the unit goes back to OFF position.
If the outdoor sensor is not located in the outdoor air inlet duct and a room sensor has been selected, the unit will not start free cooling as long as all the temperatures are not within the start and stop temperature intervals.
Stop conditions:

• Outdoor temp above the set max value (64.4°F (18°C)) or below the set min value (condensation risk, 50°F (10°C)) .
• The room temp/extract air temp is below the set stop value (64.4°F (18°C)) .
• One of the timer outputs for normal speed, External stop or External running normal is On
• The time is later than 07:00:00.

When free cooling is active, the fans run at normal speed or the set value for pressure/flow control and the digital output Free cooling is active. The outputs Y1-Heating, Y2-Heat exchanger and Y3-Cooling are shut down. After free cooling has been activated, the heating output is blocked for 60 minutes (configurable time).

4.5 Cooling Recovery
If the extract air is colder than the outdoor air and cooling is required, the heat exchanger control is reversed in order to return the cool extract air.
Note
The following is only valid if the cooling recovery function is set to Active in the program menu.

4.6 Exchanger Frost Prevention
If the exhaust air temperature falls below the frost threshold of the unit the exchanger frost prevention function will be triggered and the unit will cycle between ventilation mode and the selected type of frost prevention mode in order to prevent any frost build up within the unit.
Types of frost prevention mode:
Exhaust only:
During exhaust only frost prevention, the supply fan will shut down and the outdoor air damper will close (interruption of the cold outdoor airflow). The unit will keep extracting warm air for a defined period of time preventing any frost build up before going back to normal ventilation mode.
Recirculation:
There are 3 different recirculation configurations. First is a 5th port configuration with continuous exhaust set to “NO”. Second is a 5th port configuration with continuous exhaust set to “YES” in order to maintain an uninterrupted rate of exhaust. The last option is an H-Type configuration where the unit exhaust air is recirculated through the supply stream (continuous exhaust has to be set to “NO” for this configuration).
These configurations require a dedicated recirculation damper interlocked with the outdoor air damper in order that as the outdoor air damper closes, the recirculation path is opened and vice versa.
During recirculation frost prevention, the outdoor air damper will close and the dedicated recirculation damper will open. The unit will recirculate warm air for a defined period of time preventing any frost build up before going back to normal ventilation mode.
Note
The following is only valid if the exchanger frost prevention function is set to Active in the program menu.

Maintenance

5.1 Important
Danger

• Make sure that the Mains supply to the unit is disconnected before performing any maintenance or electrical work!
• All electrical connections must be carried out by an authorized installer and in accordance with local rules and regulations.

Warning

• Although the main power supply to the unit has been disconnected there is still risk of injury due to rotating parts that have not come to a complete standstill.
• Beware of sharp edges during maintenance. Use protective clothing.

5.2 Maintenance Intervals
The table below shows recommended maintenance intervals for the unit and the installation. To ensure along operation life of the unit it is important to perform maintenance according to recommendations below and that they are performed according to the operation and maintenance instructions. A thorough and recurrent maintenance is a must for valid warranty.

1. Or in accordance with local rules and regulations

5.3 Maintenance Instruction
5.3.1 Changing Supply/Extract Air Filter and Pre-Filter
The bag filter cannot be cleaned and must be changed when necessary. New filters can be ordered from Systemair. Operation time between filter changes depends on the air pollution at the installation site. A differential pressure switch indicates when it’s time to change the filters. This will trigger an alarm in the control panel.
When this occurs do the following:

1. Replace the filters with new ones as described below
2. Acknowledge the alarm by pressing the red button on the control panel (pos. 1 figure 6) followed by OK (pos. 4 figure 6)
3. Choose →Acknowledge by pressing OK

The filters are taken out by releasing the filter locking handle as shown in (Step 1) below after which the filters can be taken out and replaced (Step 2) below.

1. Releasing the filter locking handle
2. Changing filters
3. Changing pre-filter (only when pre-heater is installed)
4. Insert the new filter and fasten it against the inlet seal with the filter support bars.

5.3.2 Checking the Heat Exchanger

After extended use dust may build up in the exchanger and block the air flow. It is important to clean the exchanger regularly to maintain high efficiency. The complete rotating heat exchanger block can be taken out of the unit (figure 7) in the smaller models to facilitate cleaning and maintenance. Wash in hot soapy water or use pressurized air. Do not use detergents containing ammonia.
Check at least once a year that the exchanger rotor rotates easily. Check this by removing the drive belt and move the rotor by hand. Check also that the brushes are undamaged. The rotor bearings are permanently lubricated from factory and should not be re-greased.
Check 4 times per year that the drive belt is sufficiently tight, that it follows the tracks and that it is undamaged. If the belt tension is too low it needs to be shortened.
Note:
Make sure that the rotor motor is not exposed to moisture

5.3.3 Checking the Fans
Even if the required maintenance, such as change of filters, is carried out dust and grease may slowly build up inside the fans. This will reduce their efficiency.
The fans can be removed by loosening the screws which attach the rack to the unit’s inner wall section.
The complete fan rack can then be pulled out after all the attached fast couplings to the electrical wires have been disconnected (figure 8). The fans may be cleaned with a cloth or a soft brush. Do not use water.
A mild solvent can be used to remove obstinate settlements. Allow fan to dry properly before reinstalling.
The fan motor bearings are permanently lubricated and should not be re- greased.

5.3.4 Checking the Hot Water Heating Coil
After long periods of operation (usually several years) dust may have deposited on the surface of the coil.
This may reduce coil capacity. The coil can be cleaned with a pressure washer with misting jets, or with compressed air. Cleaning should be carried out carefully so as not to damage the coil’s aluminum fins.
Once a year the coil water circuit needs to be vented to maintain the coil capacity

5.3.5 Checking the Electrical Heater
After a long period of time dust and pollutants can build up on the heating rods. This can cause unpleasant odors and, in the worst case, fire. Clean with compressed air, vacuum or brush. The heating power can be measured, in the electrical connection box, before the heating season. The heater rods need to be measured to ensure there are no discrepancies in resistance between them. The automatic safety function needs to be tested and verified.

5.3.6 Cleaning Extract Louvres and Inlet Diffusers
The system supplies treated outdoor air to the building and extracts the used indoor air via the duct system and diffusers/louvres. Diffusers and louvres are mounted in ceilings/walls in bedrooms, living rooms, wet rooms, bathrooms etc. Remove diffusers and louvres and wash in hot soapy water if required. Diffusers/ louvres must be put back with their original settings and positions in order not to unbalance the system.

5.3.7 Checking the Outdoor Air Intake
Leaves and other debris can plug up the air intake grille and reduce the unit’s capacity. Check the air intake grille at least twice a year and clean if necessary.

5.3.8 Checking the Duct System
Dust and grease may build up in the duct system even if filters are changed regularly. This will reduce the efficiency of the installation. The duct should therefore be cleaned/changed when necessary. Steel ducts can be cleaned by pulling a brush, soaked in hot soapy water through the duct via diffuser/louvre openings or special inspection hatches in the duct system (if fitted).

5.3.9 Changing the Internal Battery in the Corrigo Controller
Note:
This procedure requires knowledge of proper ESD protection; i.e. an grounded wristband must be used!
When the alarm “Internal Battery” is activated and the battery LED lights up red, the battery for backup of program memory and real-time clock has become too weak. The battery is replaced as described below.
A backup capacitor saves the memory and keeps the clock running for at least 10 minutes after the power supply is removed. Therefore, if the battery replacement takes less than 10 minutes, there will be no need to reload the program, and the clock will continue to run normally.
The replacement battery must be of the type CR2032.

1. Remove the cover by pressing down the locking torques at the edge of the cover using a small screwdriver, and at the same time pulling the edges outwards.
2. Grip the battery firmly with your fingers and lift it upwards until it rises from its holder.
   Press the new battery firmly down into place. Note that to preserve correct polarity, the battery can only be inserted the “right way round”.

5.4 Troubleshooting
