1.Follow all local electrical and safety codes, as well as the National Electrical Code (NEC), the National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA), where applicable.

Follow the Canadian Electric Code (CEC) in Canada.

2.All moving parts must be free to rotate without striking or rubbing any stationary objects.

3.Unit must be securely and adequately grounded.

4.Do not spin fan wheel faster than maximum cataloged fan RPM. Adjustments to fan speed significantly effects motor load. If the fan RPM is changed, the motor current should be checked to make sure it is not exceeding the motor nameplate amps.

5.Do not allow the power cable to kink or come in contact with oil, grease, hot surfaces or chemicals. Replace cord immediately if damaged.

6.Verify that the power source is compatible with the equipment.

7.Never open access doors to the unit while it is running.

Receiving

Upon receiving the product, check to make sure all items are accounted for by referencing the bill of lading to ensure all items were received. Inspect each crate for shipping damage before accepting delivery. Notify the carrier if any damage is noticed. The carrier will make notification on the delivery receipt acknowledging any damage to the product. All damage should be noted on all the copies of the bill of lading which is countersigned by the

delivering carrier. A Carrier Inspection Report should be filled out by the carrier upon arrival and the Traffic Department. If damaged upon arrival, file claim

with carrier. Any physical damage to the unit after acceptance is not the responsibility of Greenheck Fan Corporation.

Unpacking

Verify that all required parts and the correct quantity of each item have been received. If any items are missing report shortages to your local representative to arrange for obtaining missing parts. Sometimes it is not possible that all items for the unit be shipped together due to availability of transportation and truck space. Confirmation of shipment(s) must be limited to only items on the bill of lading.

Handling

Units are to be rigged and moved by the lifting brackets provided or by the skid when a forklift is used. Location of brackets varies by model and size. Handle each piece in such a manner as to keep from scratching or chipping the coating. Damaged finish may reduce ability of the unit to resist corrosion.

Storage

Units are protected against damage during shipment. If the unit cannot be installed and operated immediately, precautions need to be taken to prevent deterioration of the unit during storage. The user assumes responsibility of the unit and accessories while in storage. The manufacturer will not be responsible for damage during storage. These suggestions are provided solely as a convenience to the user.

Inspection and Maintenance during Storage

While in storage, inspect units once per month. Keep a record of inspection and maintenance performed

If moisture or dirt accumulations are found on parts, the source should be located and eliminated. At each inspection, rotate all moving components by hand ten to fifteen revolutions to distribute lubricant on motor and bearings. If paint deterioration begins, consideration should be given to touch-up or repainting. Units with special coatings may require special techniques for touch-up or repair.

Machined parts coated with rust preventive should be restored to good condition promptly if signs of rust occur. Immediately remove the original rust preventive coating with petroleum solvent and clean with lint-free cloths. Polish any remaining rust from surface with crocus cloth or fine emery paper and oil. Do not destroy the continuity of the surfaces. Wipe clean thoroughly with Tectyl® 506 (Ashland Inc.) or the equivalent. For hard to reach internal surfaces or for occasional use, consider using Tectyl® 511M Rust Preventive or WD-40® or the equivalent.

Basic Operation

The ERV brings in fresh, outdoor air and removes stale, exhaust air. Prior to discharging the exhaust air, the energy recovery wheel transfers energy from the exhaust air to the outdoor air at an efficiency

of 70-80%. Simply put, this unit preconditions the outdoor air to save money on heating and cooling costs.

clearances when positioning opening

(see Service Clearances). Do not face the outdoor air intake of the unit into prevailing wind and keep the intake away from any other exhaust fans. Likewise, position the exhaust discharge opening away from outdoor air intakes of any other equipment.

When cutting only duct openings, cut opening 1 inch (25mm) larger than duct size to allow clearance for installation. Area enclosed by roof curb must comply with clearance to combustible materials. If the roof is constructed of combustible materials, area within the roof curb must be ventilated, left open, or covered with non-combustible material which has an “R” value of at least 5. If area within curb is open, higher radiated sound levels may result.

Where the supply or warm air duct passes thru a combustible roof, a clearance of one inch must be maintained between the outside edges of the duct and combustible material in accordance with NFPA Standard 90A.

Model ERV Energy Recovery Unit 7

Electrical Information

The unit must be electrically grounded in accordance with the current National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. In Canada, use current CSA Standard C22.1, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1. In addition, the installer should be aware of any local ordinances or electrical company requirements that might apply. System power wiring must be properly fused and conform to the local and national electrical codes. System power wiring is to the unit main disconnect (door interlocking disconnect switch standard

on most units) or distribution block and must be compatible with the ratings on the nameplate: supply power voltage, phase, and amperage (Minimum Circuit Amps - MCA, Maximum Overcurrent Protection - MOP). All wiring beyond this point has been done by the manufacturer and cannot be modified without affecting the unit’s agency / safety certification.

If field installing an additional disconnect switch, it is recommended that there is at least four feet of service room between the switch and system access

panels. When providing or replacing fuses in a fusible disconnect, use dual element time delay fuses and size according to the rating plate.

If power supply is desired through bottom of unit, run the wiring through the curb, cut a hole in the cabinet bottom, and wire to the disconnect switch. Seal penetration in cabinet bottom to prevent leakage.

The electric supply to the unit must meet stringent requirements for the system to operate properly. Voltage supply and voltage imbalance between phases should be within the following tolerances. If the power is not within these voltage tolerances, contact the power company prior to operating the system.

Voltage Supply: See voltage use range on the rating plate. Measure and record each supply leg voltage at all line disconnect switches. Readings must fall within the allowable range on the rating plate.

Voltage Imbalance: In a 3-phase system, excessive voltage imbalance between phases will cause motors to overheat and eventually fail. Maximum allowable imbalance is 2%. To determine voltage imbalance, use recorded voltage measurements in this formula.

Key: V1, V2, V3 = line voltages as measured VA (average) = (V1 + V2 + V3) / 3

VD = Line voltage (V1, V2 or V3) that deviates farthest from average (VA)

Formula: % Voltage Imbalance = [100 x (VA-VD)] / VA

CAUTION

If any of the original wire as supplied with the appliance must be replaced, it must be replaced with wiring material having a temperature rating of at least 105ºC.

WARNING

To prevent injury or death due to electrocution or contact with moving parts, lock disconnect switch open.

Most factory supplied electrical components are prewired. To determine what electrical accessories require additional field wiring, refer to the unit specific wiring diagram located on the inside of the unit control center access door. The low voltage control circuit is 24 VAC and control wiring should not exceed 0.75 ohms.

Refer to Field Control Wiring Length/Gauge table for wire length maximums for a given wire gauge.

Control wires should not be run inside the same conduit as that carrying the supply power. Make sure that field supplied conduit does not interfere with access panel operation.

If wire resistance exceeds 0.75 ohms, an industrialstyle, plug-in relay should be added to the unit control center and wired in place of the remote switch (typically between terminal blocks R and G on the terminal strip (refer to Typical Control Center Components). The relay must be rated for at least 5 amps and have a 24 VAC coil. Failure to comply with these guidelines may cause motor starters to “chatter” or not pull in which can cause contactor failures and/or motor failures.

Electric Heater Application/Operation

Factory installed electric heaters can be provided for preheat frost control. An electric preheater warms the outdoor air prior to the energy recovery wheel to prevent frosting on the wheel. Electric heaters are available in 208, 230, or 460 VAC (refer to heater nameplate for voltage).

Preheaters: Preheaters are standard as 2-stage, step control. Step control heaters are designed with multiple stages made up of equal increments of heating capability. For example, a 10 kW heater with two stages will be composed of two 5-kW stages. Preheaters are single point wired at the factory.

A temperature sensor (with field adjustable set point) is mounted in the outdoor airstream after the preheater to turn the preheater on. See Frost Control Application/Operation for typical set points. If the temperature falls below the set point and the wheel pressure drop sensor is triggered, the first stage of the preheater will turn on. If the first stage does not satisfy the set point, the second stage will also turn on.

Electric Preheater:

The preheater is single point wired to the unit control center. Access to

the preheater control panel is through

the outdoor air filter door.
