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

The unit has the following operating logic: warm stale extract air from the room flows into the  unit, where it is filtered by the extract filter, then air flows through the heat exchanger and is exhausted outside by the exhaust fan. Cold fresh air from the outside flows into the unit, where it is cleaned by the supply filter. Then the air flows through the heat exchanger 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.

The air handling unit is equipped with a front service panel for repair and maintenance operations. The control unit is accessible for installation and wiring operations through the inspection door on top of the unit. The power cable and ground cable are connected to the control unit via the electric lead-ins
The bypass damper is open or closed depending on operation mode of the unit. During the operation of KOMFORT EC SB(E) 250 L/R units the difference between the supply and extract air flow temperature leads to condensate generation. Condensate is collected in the drain pan and is removed outside through the drain pipe. The KOMFORT EC SB(E) 250-E L/R units are equipped with an enthalpy heat exchanger and do not require condensate drainage

Accessories for the unit are 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 (connected to the controller).
  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.

• OC sensor (connected to the controller).
  Qualitative assessment of air saturation with contaminants (cigarette smoke, exhaled air, solvent and detergent vapors). 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.

• ENH duct heater for supply air reheating.
  The heater maintains the room temperature set by the user. Heater installation and connection to the unit are described in the heater user’s manual.

RIGHT-HANDED AND LEFT-HANDED MODIFICATIONS

The figure below shows the arrangement of spigots for left- and right-handed modifications. Choosing the right arrangement can improve the ease of installation, shorten the length of the ducts and reduce the number of air duct bends.

UNIT OPERATION LOGIC

Heat recovery
Air from the room flows into the unit, where it is filtered by the extract filter, then air flows through the heat exchanger and is exhausted outside by the exhaust fan. Air from outside flows into the unit, where it is cleaned in the intake filter. Then the air flows through the heat exchanger and is directed to the room with the supply fan. Supply air is heated in the heat exchanger by transferring the heat energy of warm and humid extract air to the cold fresh air. 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 extract air that is removed from the premises bypasses the heat exchanger. The temperature of the air is not changed after passing through the heat exchanger.

Freeze protection
A freezing danger appears, if the exhaust air temperature downstream of the heat exchanger is below +5 °C and the intake air temperature upstream of the heat exchanger is below -3 °C for the units with an electric heater and when the exhaust air temperature downstream of the heat exchanger is below +3 °C for the units without an electric heater.
In the KOMFORT EC SBE 250(-E) L/R S14 units, when there is a risk of freezing, the supply fan is switched off. After the temperature increase, the unit returns to the previous mode. Three modes of freeze protection are available in the KOMFORT EC SBE 250(-E) L/R S21 units-periodically the supply fan is turned off with the bypass-with the electric preheater (if the unit is equipped with a preheater)
Mode selection and settings are described in the 521 control system user’s manual.

MOUNTING AND SET-UP

READ THE USER’S MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING THE UNIT.

To attain the best performance of the unit and to minimise turbulence-induced air pressure losses, connect the straight air duct section to the spigots on both sides of the unit while mounting

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 fans, the spigots may be covered with a protecting grille or other protecting device with mesh width not more than 12.5 mm. When choosing the unit installation location, it is necessary to provide free access to the hinged panel for technical and service maintenance.

The air ducts must be slipped over the unit flanges until tight. Flexible air ducts must be rigidly fixed with a metal worm clamp.

he unit must be mounted strictly horizontally in the longitudinal and transverse planes. Failure to do so will cause the unit casing distortion and may prevent proper operation

Humidity sensor installation
The humidity sensor is not included in the delivery set and must be purchased separately. For ease of installation, it is recommended to remove the filter and the heat exchanger.

Connect the sensor connector to the connector with the cable from the control unit. Fasten the sensor with the screw on the threaded rivet.

Unit floor mounting
Install the unit on the pre-mounted floor supports, minimum 150 mm height, to ensure sufficient access for the drain pipe connection to the U-trap and for condensate drain system installation.
Rotate the adjustable feet to achieve a strictly horizontal unit position.

Unit wall mounting
Dowels for wall mounting are not included in the delivery set and should be ordered separately.
While choosing dowels consider the material of the mounting surface as well as the weigh of the unit, refer to the “Technical data”section Dowels for unit mounting should be selected by a qualified specialist.

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 (3-4 times per year).
   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. For new filters contact the Seller. To access the filters, unscrew the thumbscrews and remove the service panels.

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 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. Remove the service panel and take it out of the unit for the heat exchanger service operations
   

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. Fans should be cleaned selected by the service technician

4. Condensate drainage system maintenance (4 times per year).
   The condensate drainage (drain line) may get clogged by dirt and dust particles contained in the exhaust air. Check the drain line operation by filling the drain pan under the unit with water, clean the U-trap and the drain line, if necessary

5. Supply air flow control (twice per year).
   The supply duct grille may get clogged with leaves and other objects reducing the unit performance and supply air delivery. Check the supply grille twice per year and clean it as required.

6. 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.
