Cold fresh air from the outside flows into the unit, where it is cleaned by the intake 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. UNIT DESIGN 1 6 2 7 3 4 8 5 1 -- exhaust fan; 2 -- control unit; 3 -- supply air filter; 4 -- counter-flow heat exchanger; 5 -- drain pipe (VUT 230 V5); 6 -- supply fan; 7 -- exhaust air filter; 8 -- drain pan. The service side of the unit is equipped with a detachable plate for filter and heat exchanger cleaning and replacement operations. The control unit is positioned inside the unit casing. The power cable and grounding cables are connected to the control unit through the hole on the side of the unit. 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 pipes. www.ventilation-system.com 7 VUT/VUE 230 V5 Intake air Exhaust air UNIT OPERATION MODES Extract air Supply air Heat recovery Warm stale extract air from the room flows into the unit, where it is filtered by the intake 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. 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. Supply air Extract air Intake air Exhaust air Freeze protection The heat exchanger freeze protection function of the unit is implemented with a temperature sensor. The sensor is installed in the exhaust air duct downstream of the heat exchanger. In case of a freezing danger the supply fan is turned off and the heat exchanger is warmed up with warm extract air flow. After temperature increase the unit returns to the previous operation mode. 8 www.ventilation-system.com INSTALLATION AND SET-UP READ THE USER'S MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING THE UNIT.
