2.4 Regulations for operation with
fireplaces
Observe the current rules from the German
Federation of Chimney Sweeps (Evaluation
criteria for the joint operation of fireplaces –
domestic ventilation – extractor hoods) as
well as other pertinent regulations and guidelines.
The ventilation unit may only be installed
in rooms, apartments or living units of a
comparable size with air-ventilated fireplaces, if:
● the evaluation criteria drawn up by the
responsible, regional master chimney
sweep are met,
● a parallel operation of air-ventilated fireplaces for liquid or gaseous fuels and the
air-extracting equipment can be prevented,
or
● the extraction of exhaust gas from the airventilated fireplaces is monitored by special safety equipment. The ventilation unit
or the fireplaces must be switched off if the
equipment is triggered.
Only operate the ventilation system at
the same time as an air-ventilated
fireplace if using differential pressure
control.
NOTICE
The ventilation unit may not be installed in
living units with air-ventilated fireplaces
that are connected to exhaust gas systems, which themselves have multiple
connections. Combustion air ducts must
be capable of being blocked. In the case
of solid fuel fireplaces, any blocking device may only be operated manually.

4. Operation
4.1 General
A product from the WRG 300 / 400 EC range
is a highly developed heat recovery fan,
which, thanks to the latest electronic controller, combines minimum energy consumption
and maximum comfort in a single unit.
A
micro-processor controller guarantees the
safe operation of the fan and ensures that the
defined air volume values remain constant.
The WRG 300 / 400 EC is equipped with an
operating panel with display. This makes it
possible to make a continuous air volume
adjustment and to read off the operating data
without opening the ventilation unit.
4.2 LED display system and
operating panel
The WRG 300 / 400 EC is equipped with an
operating panel. This is used to call up and/or
modify settings.
The operating panel has four buttons and a
display.
1 Display
2 "OK" button (confirm, ready, reset filter
status display)
3 "Increase parameter value” button
4 Function button
5 "Lower parameter value” button
The lefthand area of the display shows the
ventilation level or the parameter type. The
righthand area shows the read-out value, e.g.
the defined air volume.
Example:
From the display, you can read off that the
unit is operating at ventilation level 3, with a
flow rate of 280 m
3
/h.
The 4 buttons have the following functions:
F Switch function button / parameter
menu on and off
+ Next parameter / Increase value
- Previous parameter / Lower value
OK Switch setting menu on and off
/ manual error reset / filter status

4.3 Anti-frost protection
The frost protection system ensures that the
secondary side of the heat exchanger (exhaust air side) does not freeze up as a result
of an imbalance between supply and exhaust
flow. An optimal control of the volumetric
flows is carried out, dependent on temperature and pressure loss at the heat exchanger.
4.4 Filter status display
The unit is equipped with a filter status display that indicates when a filter change is
necessary. You will find more information in
sections 7.2 and 8.1.
5. Installation
5.1 General
The steps required to install the unit can be
summed up as follows.
1. Setting up the unit.
2. Connecting the channels.
3. Connecting the condensation run-off.
4. Electrical connection:
Connection of the room air control and
the mains power.
The WRG 300 / 400EC must be installed in
line with the following requirements.
● Quality requirements of ventilation systems
in closed rooms.
● Quality requirements of balanced ventilation in closed rooms.
● Volume calculations in line with building
statutes.
● Regulations for ventilation in closed rooms
and residential buildings.
● Safety regulations for low-voltage installations.
● Regulations for sewage connection in
closed rooms and residential buildings.
● Additional regulations laid down by local
utility companies.
● Mounting instructions for the WRG 300 /
400 EC.
Page 10

5.2 Wall assembly
Use the special wall bracket for wall mounting. See Chapter 11.3, Accessories.
Danger of injury if installed on a
wall that is too weak.
Only install the ventilation unit on a
wall with sufficient load-bearing capacity. Prescribed is a solid wall
with at least 200 kg/m
2
.
Plasterboard or metal stud walls are
not sufficient. In this case, additional
measures such as double-walls or
additional studs are required.
● Fix the track (1) to the ventilation unit with
the 6 tapping screws supplied.
● Glue both rubber buffers (3) on the rear of
the unit.
● Fix the holding plate (2) to the wall with
suitable mounting material, which is to be
supplied by the customer. Make sure it is
horizontal.
● Locate the edge protection profile (4) on
the holding plate (2).
● Hang the ventilation unit (weight approx. 50
kg) on the holding plate (2). Make sure that
the holding plate and the track line up
completely and that the ventilation unit is
lying against the wall with both rubber buffers in place.
5.3 Connecting the channels
The exhaust air channel does not need a
control valve. The air volumes are controlled
by the unit itself. In order to prevent the buildup of condensation at the outside and outgoing air channels, these channels must be
insulated from outside as far as the unit.
Page 11
10
● The outside air feed should be installed on
the shaded side of the building, e.g. on the
wall or under an overhang. If the outside air
is sucked in from underneath the roof tiles,
it must be ensured that there is no build-up
of condensation in the roof shell and that
no water can penetrate. Supply air can be
sucked in from underneath the roof tiles if
air can flow unhindered from below and
above in the roof area and if the building
drainage system does not vent out under
the roof tiles.
A Spacing 10 mm over the roof beam
support
B Roof insulation
C Foam seal
D The pipe for the air balancing must be
carefully insulated and equipped with a
moisture barrier
● The exhaust air channel is to be fed
through the roof shell such that no condensation can build up in the roof shell.
● The exhaust air channel between the WRG
300 / 400 EC and the roof outlet should be
designed such that the build up of surface
condensation is excluded.
● An insulated roof outlet must be used for
ventilation purposes.
● The highest permitted resistance in the
channel system at maximum ventilation
power is 150 Pa. Increased resistance in
the channel system reduces the maximum
ventilation power.
● The position of the exhaust air opening and
the position of the building drainage system
vent should be chosen in such a way to
avoid cross-contamination through odours.
● Select the position for the supply air valve
so that contamination and draughts are
avoided.
Sufficient overflow openings must be installed, shutter gap 2 cm.
Page 12

5.4 Connecting the condensation
run-off
Condensation is produced during heat recovery and has to be removed correctly via the
condensation run-off. The piping for the condensation run-off for the Maico WRG 300 /
400 EC is fed through the lower panel.
The condensation run-off connection (external diameter 20 mm) must be screwed into
the underside of the unit by the installer.
The drain hose is connected to the condensation run-off connection and a siphon.
1 Water seal head,
min. 50 mm
Please note The siphon (see figure) needs
a water seal head of at least
50 mm.
Install an open drip funnel
with another siphon at the
drainage system, to receive
the condensation.
This disconnects the ventila-
tion unit from the drainage
system and it prevents a build
up of germs at the unit.
Please note It is not permitted to install
several siphons one after
the other without duct separation
¾ If there is high humidity in the room
where the unit is installed, insulate the
drain hose and the condensation run-off
connection to avoid condensation.
¾ Now pour water into the condensation
run-off in the ventilation unit..Check that
the connection is not leaking.
5.5 Sound insulation
Sound emissions from the ventilation system
are dependent on many factors, e.g. the
construction of the building, ventilation components, etc.
¾ For this reason, install the ventilation
system as per the planning and/or
manufacturer specifications.
The system must be adjusted following installation. This work has
to be logged in writing.
Page 13
12
5.5.1 Ventilation unit housing emissions
It is not recommended that you install the
ventilation unit in the living area, kitchen or
bathroom as the housing noise emissions
exceed 35 dB(A).
Recommendation: Install the ventilation unit
in a room that has a sufficient level of sound
insulation from the remaining living areas.
5.5.2 Designing the air channels
Observe the prescribed sound
pressure level of < 25 dB(A) in living areas and < 30 dB(A) in functional areas. Silencers must be
installed in the ventilation channels.
Recommendation: Install telephony sound
absorbers to reduce the sound transfer between the individual rooms.
5.6 Electrical connection
The WRG 300 / 400 EC must be installed in
line with local requirements. The advice given
in this manual must be observed
The unit may only be connected
to the mains power after the supply and exhaust air channels
have been connected.
Only qualified electricians are permitted to
make the electrical connections, in compliance with the wiring diagram below. A fixed
cabling is prescribed for the mains connection, in a distribution box, for example.
Caution: Risk of an electric
shock. Malpractices run the risk
of death
.
Always switch off the mains fuse in
the fuse box before starting work on
the electrical installation and post a
warning sign to prevent this being
switched back on by mistake.
5.6.1 Connecting the room air control
The room air control should be connected to
cable (A) on the top of the unit.
The power supply phase must be
connected to terminal 5 on the room
air control so that the unit can be

6.5.1 Calling up the settings by the user
Using the "+" and "-" buttons, the user can
also call up other relevant data (step 1 to
step 4). The step numbers are not displayed.
See the following table for calling up the user
data. After a timeout of 5 minutes during
which time no button has been pressed, the
display reverts to the standard operation
mode. You can scroll through the menu with
the "+" button. The "-" button is only used to
return to step 1. Set values cannot be
changed in this menu.
6.5.2 Calling up the settings by the installer
There is a more extensive program for the
installer for calling up data. All data available
to the installer can be called up by pressing
and holding the "F" and "OK" buttons at the
same time for approx 3 seconds. However,
the values cannot be modified or changed in
this menu.
After this menu is called, it always opens with
step number 7 (see following table). The
installer and user data is called with the "+"
button and the "-" is used to return to step 0.
This menu is automatically closed if no button
is pressed for 5 minutes and the display
reverts to the standard operation mode.
In the case of a fault, the fault number appears in the display.

6.6 Changing settings
Certain set values can be changed by both
the user and the installer, in order to customise the unit to the current situation.
6.6.1 Changing settings by the user
The user can change 3 settings, namely U1,
U2 and U3 (see table in section 6.6.3) U4, U5
and U8 have no function with the WRG 300 /
400 EC. How to change these settings is fully
explained in section 6.2 and is also shown in
the menu structure diagram in section 6.4.1.

6.6.2 Changing settings by the installer
The installer can change more set values
than the user. If parameters are incorrectly
set, the performance of the unit is affected.
For this reason, make sure the parameters
are correctly set.
Please refer also to the menu structure diagram in section 6.4.1 and the table in section
6.6.3. Starting from operational mode, the
following steps are required for changing
settings. The example of changing parameter
I7 from 1 to 0 is used here.
1. Press button "F" for approx. 3 seconds to
activate the settings menu.
2. Press button "F" and "OK" buttons for 3
seconds at the same time to activate the
extensive parameter set for the installer.
3. The required parameters can be called up
using the "+" and "-" buttons.
4. Pressing the "OK" button calls this setting.
5. The value can be changed using the "+"
and "-" buttons.
Page 25
24
6. The modified value can now be:
A: saved;
B not saved;
C reset to factory setting
.
A Press and hold buttons "F" and "+"
(first "F", then "+"") to save the modified value. The value flashes three
times to confirm that it has been
saved. The display continues to show
this modified value. Press the "OK"
button, to return to the settings menu.
If required, further values can be
changed now (see steps 2 to 5). Continue with step 7.
B Press the "OK" button to return to the
settings menu without saving the
modified value. The previous value is
retained. Continue with step 7.
C Press and hold buttons "F" and "-"
(first "F", then "-") to save the modified
value. The value flashes three times
to confirm that it has been saved. The
factory setting value is retained. The
modified value is discarded. Press the
"OK" button to return to the settings
menu. Continue with step 7.
7. Press the "F" for 1 second to quit the
settings menu.

7. Fault
7.1 Fault analysis
If the control system recognises a fault, this is
shown on the display by a number with an "F"
in front of it. If a 3-way switch with filter status
display is installed, the LED on the 3-way
switch also starts to flash.
The fault F9 is shown here as an example.
That means that there is a fault in the cabling
to the outside temperature sensor or in the
sensor itself.
The unit stays in fault mode until the corresponding problem has been resolved. Then
the unit carries out an automatic reset
(Autoreset) and the display reverts to operational mode.
The table in section 7.3 contains an overview
of the faults, the possible causes and the
measures that need to be taken.
7.2 Filter status display
If the message "FIL" appears in the display,
the filters have to be exchanged.
After changing the filters, the filter status
display has to be reset by pressing the "OK"
button.
The display "FIL" flashes briefly and then the
display reverts to operational mode.
