The automatic antifrost function of the heat recovery cells intermittently stops the supply air
fan when the temperature of exhaust air goes under the set threshold value. To avoid or to
decrease the stopping of the supply air fans, supply air can be heated with the preheating
radiator of the unit.
If you wish to use preheating, you must change the setpoint of preheating for the VALLOX 90 SE unit
(see Instructions for use and maintenance, page 10, section 3.3.21).
The preheating radiator is a tubeheater and it is burning hot, when it is in operation.
Using the unit without filters is forbidden. Filters prevent the fans and tubeheaters from getting dirty.
Post-heating radiator (option)
The post-heating radiator of the VALLOX 90 SE unit is a resistor, which aims at heating the
air blown to the rooms to the preset temperature.
The preheating radiator is a tubeheater and it is burning hot, when it is in operation.
Post-heating adjustment
There are two methods of post-heating
1. Supply air constant temperature control
• Post-heating control used in VALLOX 90 SE is relative; when the temperature selected
exceeds supply air temperature by more than 2.5 °C, the radiator is on 100 %, and
when the temperature difference gets smaller, the period of active operation is
automatically reduced in two-minute sequences. The adjustment range of heating is
+10...+ 30 °C.
• The heating radiator is on when the (
control panel.
• The main display of the control panel shows the temperature of supply air.
• Temperature control is only active when post-heating has been switched on.
2. Supply air cascade control
• Supply air temperature control can be changed into cascade control.
• Changes the controlling principle of the post-heating radiator; the temperature of air
blown to the ventilation zone is controlled on the basis of extract air.
• The programme tries to keep supply air temperature at a value determined by the
difference between extract air and the setpoint as follows: If extract air is warmer than
the setpoint, supply air temperature is lower than the setpoint by the difference. If extract
air is colder, supply air is higher than the setpoint by the difference.
If the temperature in the ventilation zone is 25 °C and the setpoint is 24 °C, the aim is to
blow 23 °C air to the ventilation zone. If the temperature in the ventilation zone is 24 °C
and the setpoint is 25 °C, the aim is to blow 26 °C air to the ventilation zone.
• The aim is to keep the temperature of air blown to the ventilation zone always between
+10...+30 °C.
• Cascade control can be selected at the control panel, and it is active when post-heating
has been switched on.
• The heating radiator is on when the (
control panel.
Power supply to the unit can be controlled with a contactor in the
distribution panel if needed, e.g. with a timer programme. After starting,
the unit first operates at minimum power. After that power is adjusted
based either on the measurement data from air quality sensors and/or on
manual control at the control panel.
Fan speed adjustment
Manual control
Fan speed of the ventilation unit is controlled in 8 steps at control panel H.
Week clock control
The fan power of the ventilation unit is controlled in 8 steps using the week
clock in control panel H. The week clock can be used to programme the
desired fan power option for each hour in the day.
Carbon dioxide and humidity control
The fan power of the ventilation unit is controlled in multiple steps
depending on load and based on the measurement results of the air
quality sensors (CO2 and %RH sensors) located in the ventilation zone. The
aim is to keep carbon dioxide and/or humidity content in the zone below
the setpoint defined at the control panel H. One or more modes of control
may be used simultaneously. The dominant mode is the one demanding
boosting. Ventilation can be adjusted in a maximum of 8 steps. Fan speed
varies depending on load between the basic and maximum fan speeds.
The base and maximum fan speeds can be set at the desired level at
control panel H.
Control through voltage or current signal
The fan power of the ventilation unit is controlled in 8 steps with a voltage
signal of 0...10 VDC, or with a current signal of 0...20 mA. However,
when automatic adjustments are enabled, fan capacity cannot be raised
above the set maximum fan speed. Voltage or current signal control is used
to control base fan speed. This means that fan speed can be raised when
necessary, but not lowered, by the manual, CO2 and %RH controls.

Supply air temperature
Supply air temperature can be controlled with either constant
temperature control or cascade control.
Supply air constant temperature control
The control centre of the unit controls the operation of post-heating unit
LP2 (option) on the basis of the measurement data given by temperature
sensor TE2, aiming at keeping supply air temperature at the temperature
value set at control panel H (+10…+30 °C).
Supply air cascade control
The control unit directs the operation of post-heating unit LP2 on the basis
of the measurement data given by extract air sensor TE4, aiming at
keeping extract air temperature at the temperature value set at control
panel H (+10…+30 ºC).
Heat recovery bypass
Heat recovery is enabled whenever post-heating has been switched on.
Automatic heat recovery bypass is active whenever post-heating has
been switched off and outdoor temperature exceeds the setpoint (to be
set at +0...+25 °C). In this case, the control unit directs the operation of
damper motor FG on the basis of measurement results given by outdoor
temperature sensor TE3 and extract air temperature sensor TE4. The aim
is to get as cool supply air to the ventilation zone as possible. Heat
recovery is, however, on whenever outdoor temperature is below the limit
set, or whenever outdoor air is warmer than extract air.
Heat recovery antifreeze
Active when outdoor temperature is less than 0 °C. The control centre of
the unit controls the operation of preheating unit LP1 on the basis of the
measurement data of temperature sensors TE1 and TE3, preventing
freezing alerts and the stopping of supply air fan SF. If the capacity of
preheating unit LP1 is not sufficient, or if it has been taken out of service,
the control centre intermittently stops supply air fan SF on the basis of the
measuring data on temperature sensors TE1 and TE3, thereby preventing
the heat recovery cell from freezing.
As soon as the risk passes, the fan restarts automatically. The threshold
temperature for defrosting (-6…+15 ºC) and the difference area
(1…10 ºC) can be set at control panel H. When fan SF stops, power
supply from radiator LP1 is stopped and post-heating radiator LP2
continues heating.
Heating units LP1 and LP2
Heating units are tubeheaters and they might be burning hot.
Alarms
The symbol ( ) appearing in the main display of the control panel
reminds of the need for maintenance of the unit. The reminder interval
can be set between 1 and 15 months. The factory setting is 4 months. This
function is always active. The fault signal relay gives potential-free alarm
indications on the following fault conditions:
• Alarm of high carbon dioxide content (> 5000 ppm) switches the relay
at 1-second intervals. The fans stop. This is reset by switching off the unit.
• In other fault situations, such as sensor faults, the contacts of the relay
close.
Booster or fireplace switch function
The booster or fireplace switch function of the ventilation unit is controlled
either at control panel H and/or separate switch S, which can be
connected to the connection box of the unit. The mode of operation of the
switch is selected at control panel H. The booster switch function raises
fan speed to the set maximum fan speed for 45 minutes. The fireplace
switch stops the extract air fan for 15 minutes and produces overpressure
in the ventilation zone.
LON remote monitoring control can be implemented with a VALLOX LON
converter.

VALLOX 90 SE has to be mounted in a place where temperature
does not fall below +10 ºC. Without protective casing, the unit
must be located in a place with no acoustic disturbance: storerooms,
technical rooms etc.
Wall mounting
VALLOX 90 SE is mounted on the wall with a fixing plate as
shown in the adjacent figure.
Wall construction
When fixing the unit, take the wall structure into account. 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
The delivery includes a water seal. With a pipe connected to the water seal,
water condensing from extract air can be led to a floor drain (not straight
to the drain) The pipe must not rise after the water seal. The unit has to be
mounted level with the horizontal in order to ensure that condensing water
can get out of the unit.

Ceiling mounting/ceiling mounting plate
Fastening of ceiling mounting plate to ceiling
The ceiling mounting plate is mounted straight, and it has to be fastened
so that there is a space of circa 6 mm between the back edge of the
ceiling mounting plate and the wall (Figure 1).The ventilation unit
becomes attached to the back wall. Minimum distance between the lower
edge of the ceiling mounting plate and the ceiling of the room is 14 mm.
Wit this distance, there will be a vent of circa 2 mm between the upper
edge of the mounted unit and the ceiling.
The ceiling mounting plate is fixed to the ceiling with M8 thread bars.
When the thread bars have been fastened to the ceiling, first turn the nuts
into the thread bars and lift the ceiling mounting plate in place. Then 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. NOTE! Shortening the thread bars can only be
done before mounting the ceiling mounting plate. The maximum length of
a thread bar from the lower surface of the ceiling is the space between the
lower surface of the ceiling and the lower surface of the ceiling mounting
plate + 25 mm.
