Operating instructions VALLOX 096 SE

For indoor air to stay healthy and beneﬁ cial also for the structures of the dwelling, ventilation has to be in operation continuously. It is not

advisable to stop ventilation even for longer holidays because it makes

indoor air stuffy. Also, during the heating season indoor air humidity may condense in the ducts and structures and therefore cause humidity damage. The sensors automatically adjust ventilation to an optimal level even if the dwelling is empty.

Making the unit ready for operation

1. Connect the plug to the mains supply. VALLOX 096 SE is now ready for operation.

2. Start the unit and choose a suitable ventilation power at the control panel. There is either one or more control panels. See the operating instructions for control panel.

In normal conditions basic ventilation, with a change of air every two hours, is sufﬁ cient in living areas. Boosting is needed during for

example sauna baths, cooking, clothes washing or family parties. If

carbon dioxide and/or humidity sensors have been installed in the

system, VALLOX 096 SE automatically takes care of demand-controlled

ventilation.

Ventilation control

The unit can be controlled with a control panel. The standard weekclock control can be used to control the fan power of the unit and the

setpoint for supply air temperature. Furthermore, demand-controlled ventilation can be adjusted with

optional carbon dioxide and humidity sensors. The fan power of the unit can also be controlled with a voltage signal.

Controlling ventilation with Vallox Digit SED control panel

The control panel can be used for the following ventilation control functions:

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1 Automatic humidity setting, which is suitable for controlling

humidity in for example washing rooms.

The program records current humidity level and selects it as

the setpoint, which it then uses as the target for drying air in a bathroom, for instance after a shower. The setpoint automatically varies for instance according to season and is always at the right level. This setting is factory selected.

2 Humidity level can also be set ﬁ xed. The setting can range

between 1...99 %RH and is set at the control panel. This can be used in for example public saunas and swimming pools. The

program aims at keeping humidity at the setpoint. The setpoint

can be changed if needed. The mode of adjustment is chosen at the controller. Recommended humidity content of good indoor air is approximately 45%.

• During this control, the control panel can be used to raise fan

speed to the maximum fan speed and to decrease it to the base fan speed.

• In humidity control, fan speed varies between the base and

maximum fan speeds selected.

• When the unit is ﬁ rst taken into use with automatic setpoint search enabled (factory setting), it takes 3 to 10 hours for the program

to deﬁ ne the value. During this time, humidity adjustment is not enabled (because the ﬁ rst value, selected at the factory, is 100%).

• Automatic search is enabled even if humidity control is not

selected.

Controlling ventilation with voltage signal

• VALLOX 096 SE fan power can be controlled with a voltage

signal coming from remote monitoring.

• The signal can be used to select speeds 0 to 8. However, if

Functions for adjusting ventilation power

• Starting and stopping.

• Power adjustment (8 positions).

• Setting the base fan speed and the

maximum fan speed.

Ventilation power cannot be set lower than the

base fan speed. When carbon dioxide and/

or relative humidity adjustments are activated,

power cannot be adjusted higher than the maximum fan speed. When

humidity and carbon dioxide adjustments have been switched off, fan speed can be raised to speed 8. (See the operating instructions for control panel, Section 3.25.)

Ventilation control with carbon dioxide sensor (option)

• In carbon dioxide control, VALLOX 096 SE adjusts fan speed so as to keep carbon dioxide content in the ventilation zone below the setpoint. When two or more sensors are used, fan speed is

adjusted according to the highest measuring result.

• 1 to 2 carbon dioxide sensors can be connected as options to

the VALLOX 096 SE unit.

• The adjustment is switched on/off and, if needed, the setpoint

(500...2000 ppm) is set at the control panel. The factory setting is 900 ppm. The recommended maximum carbon dioxide content in good indoor air is circa 1,000 ppm.

• During control, the control panel can be used to raise fan speed

to the maximum fan speed and to decrease it to the base fan speed. In carbon dioxide control, maximum fan speed limitation is enabled.

Controlling ventilation with humidity sensor (option)

There are two modes of adjusting fan speed:

Carbon dioxide and humidity sensors

carbon dioxide or humidity adjustment is enabled, the maximum fan speed cannot be exceeded. (See the operating instructions for control panel, Section 3.25.)

• The signal changes the base fan speed.

• The signal does not lock fan speed, i.e. fan speed can be

changed at the control panel within the set limits. Carbon dioxide and humidity adjustment also operate within the set limits.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Adjustment of supply air temperature and summer/winter function

The temperature of air coming to the dwelling can be adjusted between

circa +10 °C and +30 °C. When there is a light on the post-heating

indicator, post-heating is activated and the unit heats air as needed. The need for heating depends on the setpoint of supply air temperature.

When there is no light on the post-heating indicator, post-heating is off.

This means that the summer function is activated for the ventilation unit.

The unit has a motorised summer/winter function. When the summer

function is on, the heat recovery cell is bypassed as soon as outdoor air temperature has risen above the setpoint. See the setpoint for cell

bypass, factory setting +12 ºC. When outdoor air temperature goes

below the setpoint (factory setting +12 °C), the unit starts to recover heat.

Two different kinds of supply air temperature adjustment can be

chosen at the unit: constant temperature control or cascade control. In constant temperature control, the unit controls the temperature of supply air directly in accordance with the measurement information on the temperature of supply air blown to the ventilation area. In cascade control, the unit controls supply air temperature according to the temperature of air extracted from the ventilation area. The unit calculates the difference between the air extracted and the setpoint for supply air and uses this difference to control the need for post-heating.

Winter function of ventilation unit

A set of parameters has been set at the factory for the freezing of the heat recovery cell (3.21 and 3.22).When these parameters are

undercut, the ventilation unit melts the heat recovery cell utilising the heat of extract air.

Melting is done by stopping the supply air fan (3.20. Choosing melting mode) or by bypassing the heat recovery cell on the supply air side (factory setting).

If the bypassing the heat recovery cell is chosen as the melting mode, the relationship between the supply and extract air ﬂ ows does not change. This prevents the formation of a vacuum inside, which may be harmful in some cases. In this case the electric resistor heats the cold air coming from outside during the melting period to the temperature desired (2.6. Setting supply air temperature). If the temperature desired is high compared to outdoor air temperature, the unit decreases the supply and extract air ﬂ ows in order to attain the desired supply air

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

MAINTENANCE

Before starting maintenance operations

When you open the VALLOX 096 SE unit, the security switch (S) turns

voltage off. In spite of this, disconnect the plug of the unit. Disconnect the plug of the VALLOX 096 SE unit before starting maintenance operations.

Filters

When the maintenance reminder gives an alarm, the cleanliness of the ﬁ lters must be checked. Outdoor air is ﬁ ltered in the unit with two kinds

of ﬁ lters. A coarse ﬁ lter (A) ﬁ lters off insects, heavy pollen and other dust. An F7 class ﬁ ne ﬁ lter (B) ﬁ lters off ﬁ ne dust invisible to the eye. Extract air is ﬁ ltered with a coarse ﬁ lter (C).

By using original Vallox ﬁ lters you ensure good operation of the ventilation unit and the best ﬁ ltering result. The replacement interval of ﬁ lters depends on dust content in ambient air. It is recommended to replace fans in spring and autumn, but at least once a year.

Filters

096

Heat recovery cell

When you replace the ﬁ lters, you are also advised to check the

cleanliness of the heat recovery (HR) cell (D) at an interval of approximately every two years. The sealing ledge (E) above the HR cell must be pulled off in the direction shown by the arrow in the ﬁ gure.

When the sealing ledge has been removed, the HR cell can be pulled

out of the unit. Note! The laminas of the HR cell are very thin and get easily damaged.

If the HR cell is dirty, wash it by putting it in a solution of water with

washing-up liquid. Rinse the HR cell clean with a jet of water. When

water has drained from between the laminas, you can push the HR cell

back in place. Finally, push the sealing ledge in place.

Condensing water

During the heating season, humidity of extract air condenses into condensing water. Water

formation may be abundant in new buildings or if ventilation is low compared to the humidity build-up caused by the residents. Condensing water needs to ﬂ ow out from the ventilation

unit without hindrance. When carrying out maintenance, for instance in autumn before the beginning of the heating season, make sure that the condensing water outlet in the bottom tank is not clogged. You can check it by pouring a little water in the tank. Clean if needed. Do not

let water ﬂ ow into electrical devices.

Mounting, removing and wiring of the control panel

The control panel is wired straight from the electrical connection box. The control panel can also be connected in series with a CO another control panel. (See External electrical connection).

Control panel addresses

If two or more control panels are connected to the system, the addresses of the control panels need to be changed.

For example 3 control panels

• Connect the ﬁ rst control panel to the unit and change its address to 3.

• Connect the second control panel to the unit and change its address

to 2.

• Connect the third control panel and make sure that its address is 1.

If control panels have the same address, they go to bus fault state. In this case, remove one of the control panels and change the address of the other panel. The above mentioned situation can arise in connection with the later installation of an additional control panel.

MOUNTING

Mounting

VALLOX 096 SE has to be mounted in a place where temperature does

not go below +10 °C. Without protective enclosure, the unit must be

located in a place with no acoustic disturbance: storerooms, technical rooms etc.

Wall mounting

VALLOX 096 SE is mounted on the wall with a mounting plate as shown

in the adjacent ﬁ gure. Make sure that the unit is horizontally level after

mounting.

Wall construction

Observe the wall construction during mounting. Avoid mounting the unit on a hollow, echoing dividing wall and on a bedroom wall because of sound conduction, or prevent sound conduction.

Condensing water connections

The delivery includes a water seal. By connecting a pipe to the water seal the water condensing from extract air can be led to a ﬂ oor drain (not directly to the drain). The pipe must not rise after the water seal.

The unit has to be mounted horizontally level, so that condensing water

can get freely out of the unit.

096

The minimum distance between the top of the unit and the ﬁ nished ceiling surface is 30 mm.

433

Take into account that the unit rises during mounting 10 mm higher t han the ﬁ nal height.

Ceiling mounting with ceiling mounting plate

(option)

An optional ceiling mounting plate can be used with the unit. The ceiling mounting plate is ﬁ xed to the ceiling with M8 thread bars. Fix the bars so that they stand the weight of the unit.

The ceiling mounting plate has to be ﬁ xed horizontally in order to en-

sure that the unit will be straight. The outdoor air and exhaust air duct must be insulated against condensation also between the unit and the ceiling mounting plate.

The ceiling mounting plate is mounted horizontally level, and it has to be attached so that there is a space of circa 4 mm between the back

edge of the ceiling mounting plate and the wall. The ventilation unit is then as close to the wall as possible. Minimum distance between the bottom edge of the ceiling mounting plate and the ceiling of the room is 50 mm.

The ceiling mounting plate is ﬁ xed to the ceiling with M8 thread bars. After the thread bars have been fastened to the ceiling, ﬁ rst turn the nuts into the thread bars and lift the ceiling mounting plate in place. Then

Ceiling mounting plate (option)

Minimum distance between bottom edge of ceiling mounting plate and ceiling of room 50 mm

Minimum distance to back wall 4 mm

MOUNTING

push a rubber damper and washer to each thread bar, all the way into the cup of the plate, and turn the nut. Shorten the lower ends of the thread bars so that they will be at no more than 25 mm from the lower surface of the ceiling mounting plate.

Mounting of ventilation unit to ceiling mounting plate

Mount the locking washers (J) delivered with the ceiling mounting plate in place with the 4 screws. Lift the unit and take the wires through the opening in the ceiling mounting plate. Put the locking devices attached

to the top of the ventilation unit at the openings in the ceiling mounting

plate and lift upwards. Make sure that the unit is locked in place.

Check that the condensing water insulation between the unit and the

ceiling mounting plate is in place in the exhaust and outdoor air duct. The unit can be detached from the ceiling mounting plate by pulling the spring-loaded moulding to the direction shown by the arrow (more detailed information provided with the ceiling mounting plate).

Minimum distance 10 mm
