Construction and operation
3 Construction and operation
3.1 Construction
RoofVent® units consist of the following components:
■ Roof unit with energy recovery
■ Below-roof unit
The components are bolted together and can be dismantled. The connections of
the coil are located under the extract air grille as standard. The heating/cooling
section can also be mounted on the connection module turned round.
3.2 Air distribution with the Air-Injector
The patented air distributor – called the Air-Injector – is the core element. The air
discharge angle is set by means of the innitely variable guide vanes. It depends
on the air ow rate, the mounting height and the temperature difference between
the supply air and room air. The air is therefore blown into the room vertically
downward, conically or horizontally. This ensures that:
®
■ with each RoofVent
unit a large area of the hall can be reached,
■ the occupied area is draught-free,
■ the temperature stratication in the room is reduced, thus saving energy.

STStandby
The unit is normally switched off.
The following functions remain active:
CPR
■ Cooling protection:
If the room temperature drops below the set value for cooling protection, the unit heats up the room in recirculation operation.
OPR
■ Overheating protection:
If the room temperature rises above the set value for overheating
protection, the unit cools down the room in recirculation operation. If
the temperatures also permit fresh air cooling, the units automatically
switches to night cooling (NCS) to save energy.
NCS
■ Night cooling:
If the room temperature exceeds the set value for night cooling and
the current fresh air temperature permits it, the unit blows cool fresh air
into the room and extracts warmer room air.
L_OFFOff (local operating mode)
The unit is switched off. Frost protection remains active.
–Forced heating
The unit draws in room air, warms it and blows it back into the room.
Forced heating is activated by inserting a wire jumper in the control
block. For example, it is suitable for heating the hall before taking the
control system into operation or if the controller fails during the heating
period. Connecting a room thermostat makes it possible to specify a room
temperature set value.
