Installation

N.B. The appliance is not  suitable  for outdoor installation. The appliance  must  be installed in accordance with current
safety regulations in the destination country, and with the instructions in this booklet. The appliance must be installed on

an internal surface  or  wall  of the home structurally  suited  to  holding its weight (max.  30  kg).  The appliance cannot be

positioned and secured in place using only adhesives. The connection of the ventilation ducts to the appliance must be

made with the aid of a tool.

Mounting
The appliance can be floor-standing or wall-mounted.
Floor
N.B. if opting for floor-standing installation, leave enough room underneath the appliance to create the siphon traps on
the condensate drain outlets (see also Condensate Drain paragraph). The appliance can be placed or secured using the

fixing systems supplied by Vortice (optional) (Vortice recommended method) (see figure sequence 3, 4, 5).

Wall

We recommend using the bracket supplied by Vortice (optional) (Fig.6, 7, 8).

Make  sure  that  the  appliance  is  level  in  order  to  ensure  faultless

operation. It is acceptable for the appliance to be tilted no more than a

few degrees to the rear (fig.9).

The ducts  used  for conveying  air  must be  of the  correct  size.  The ducts  to and  from  the  outdoors must  be thermally

insulated and  not subject  to  vibration.  The  150  mm  standard diameter  inlet  and  outlet ducts  must be  secured to  the

corresponding ports of the appliance by means of clips or other suitable fastening systems. If stale air is exhausted via

the roof, the outlet must be designed so as to prevent the formation of condensate and the entry of rain water. If fresh air

enters via the roof, the intake must be designed so as to prevent the formation of condensate and the entry of rain water.

Condensate drain
During normal operation, condensate  collects  at the bottom of  the  appliance in a double  tray  provided with two drain

outlets. The connection points are located at the back of the

appliance, towards  the  bottom.  The  condensate  drain can

be provided by  connecting  the  drain  outlets  to  two  flexible

hoses with an internal diameter of 19 mm approx. A siphon

trap should be created to prevent air bubbles from forming.

Important instructions: winter operation: high probability of

condensate forming; drain hoses must be connected, with a

siphon  trap.  (Fig.10a)  summer  operation:  probability  of

condensate forming; drain hoses should be connected, with

a siphon trap. (Fig.10b)

Cut the end of the hose obliquely

N.B. The siphon must be created observing the dimensions

indicated  in  fig.  11,  otherwise  correct  operation  of  the
appliance cannot be guaranteed.    Condensate can also be

drained  off  through  the  waste  plumbing  system  of  the

building.

Use

When the appliance is switched on and has been running for 2 minutes, both motors will stop to allow repositioning of

the by-pass valve. The motors will start up again after approximately 1 minutes.  
N.B.: this is a normal system procedure and should not be perceived as a malfunction.

The appliance is rated for continuous duty.

The appliance is wired to a special dedicated control panel, the functions of which are described further on. This model
can be  used  in  combination  with  a  Vortice  preheater, which  must  be  fitted  and  set  up  by the  installer. The  minimum
distance of the preheater from the appliance is 500 mm.

Maintenance and cleaning

Before commencing any servicing operation, make sure that
the  appliance  is  disconnected  from  the  electrical  power
supply.  Dismantling and assembly are special  maintenance
operations  and  must  be  entrusted  to  professional
technicians. 
N.B. Before opening the hatch, loosen the front safety screw.
(fig.28)

Filters
Recommended maintenance intervals: Because levels of air
pollution depend typically  on geographical location and are
variable, the life  of  the filters will be  similarly variable. With
this  general  consideration  in  mind,  the  following  filter
maintenance intervals are recommended:  
Inspect filters: every 50/60 days;  
replacement of filters: after 3 or 12 months (UK), 3 or 24 months (NO UK) (depending on the value set by the installer) a
pre-alarm message will appear on the display to remind the user of the need for the filters to be replaced. The filters must

be replaced within 3 months (UK), 2 months (NO UK) after this message appears, otherwise the appliance will shut down
at the end of the 3 months, activating the filters clogged alarm (Filt). When the error is reset (as described in "View alarm
menu" paragraph), the counter will also be reset.  
N.B. Failure to clean or replace filters can seriously affect system efficiency, causing:

- increased pressure losses in the air circulation system and reduced airflow; 

- drop in system performance and comfort levels caused by pressure losses. 
N.B. Clogged air filters are the most frequent cause of the appliance locking up: (Filt)

Important information concerning the environmentally compatible disposal

IN CERTAIN EUROPEAN UNION COUNTRIES THIS PRODUCT DOES NOT FALL WITHIN THE REQUIREMENTS OF
THE NATIONAL LAWS IMPLEMENTING DIRECTIVE WEEE, AND IN THESE COUNTRIES THE PRODUCT IS NOT
SUBJECT TO SEPARATE DISPOSAL OPERATIONS AT THE END OF ITS WORKING LIFE.

This product conforms to EU Directive2002/96/EC.

This appliance bears the symbol of the barred waste bin. This indicates that, at the end of its useful life, it
must not be disposed of as domestic waste, but must be taken to a collection centre for waste electrical

and electronic equipment, or returned to a retailer on purchase of a replacement. 

It is the user's responsibility to dispose of this appliance through the appropriate channels at the end of its
useful life. Failure to do so may incur  the penalties established by laws governing waste disposal.

Proper differential collection, and the subsequent recycling, processing and environmentally compatible disposal of waste
equipment avoids unnecessary damage to the environment and possible related healthrisks, and also promotes recycling
of the materials used in the appliance.

Setting operating parameters

During initial configuration of the appliance, the installer must proceed as described below, using a dedicated menu on
the control panel to set the following parameters governing the operation of the machine.

Before proceeding with the steps indicated below, press ESC to exit and return to the opening screen.

As a rule, the parameters relative to the various options can be selected by pressing SET (this causes the current value
to blink), then scrolling through the available values with the UP and DOWN buttons, and pressing SET again to confirm
the new value. The UP and DOWN buttons are also used to scroll through the different options or parameters.

The main user menu can be viewed by pressing and holding ESC and SET at one
and the same time (fig.1).
In  this  menu,  the  SERV  option  is  for  the  use  of  installers  only.  Select  SERV,
entering  a  password  to  allow  access  (default  factory  setting:  “1”).  The  SERV
menu presents the following options:

- FrSt:

- temp:

- Filt:

- FAnE:

- FAn:

- rE:

- MbUS: 

- HASE:

Each option brings up a corresponding sub-menu, as illustrated in detail below:

Menu “FrSt” (Nofrost)

This menu allows the user to enable/disable the no-frost strategy. The menu presents 3 parameters:

Menu “HASE” (HA)

This menu  is available only in  systems with HA, and  allows the user to  configure the operation  of the HA unit.  The menu presents 1

parameter:

Setting “Mod Bus” parameters

The appliance is accessible from a network using Modbus protocol, connected via a serial port that must be configured

appropriately by the installer.  With  this connection, certain operating parameters  of  the  appliance  can  be  controlled or
displayed remotely.

Where the appliance is wired into a home automation system, it will be able to communicate with the rest of the network.
The cable needed for this connection is supplied with the product.

Modbus (HRI-E)

The modbus connection cable, which will be found in the packaging of the appliance, has the following colours: 

Black --> ­White -->  +
Grey --> G
The cable must be connected to the controller by way of the RS485 port.
The connector, coloured white, is coded and can be connected to the only port available on the PLC.
The maximum length of the direct Modbus-RS485 connection is 100  m, although if the appliance is wired into a RS485
network, the maximum length of the branch is 40 cm.
