A Safety 1 Symbols 3 Maintenance safety Caution This symbol applies to all safety notices that warn of hazard to life and limb. Observe these notices and be on the alert! At the same time the relevant laws and regulations on safety and accident prevention must be adhered to. Attention This marks instructions, regulations and working methods that are of particular importance to avoid damage to the unit. Note This identifies places where details of the economical use of the unit are given as well as special tips. 2 Operating safety TopVent units are built to the latest technology and are safe to operate. Nevertheless these units can be dangerous if inappropriately installed or put to improper use. Therefore: Read and carefully adhere to the operating instructions and the safety instructions for the units before unpacking, installing and servicing! Keep the operating instructions in an accessible place. The units are only to be installed, operated and serviced by authorised, trained specialists. Strictly observe all instructions and warning labels. The local safety and accident prevention regulations for installation and operation of the units are to be observed and adhered to! Maintenance and repairs are only to be carried out by authorised specialists or by customer service. The particular hazards, e.g., when working on electrical systems are to be heeded. Before starting maintenance and work to eliminate malfunctions disconnect the unit from the mains and protect it against reconnection with a lock. Before starting maintenance and work to eliminate malfunctions switch the isolation switch (if installed) to Off. Only the fan is switched off with the isolation switch. Options (e.g. the VarioTronic) can still be live! Beware of unprotected, sharp metal edges when working on the TopVent unit. Immediately renew any damaged or removed information and warning signs. Do not remove, paint over or paste anything on information and warning signs. After maintenance work properly reinstall all removed protective devices. Unauthorised revamping and modifying of the unit can have an adverse effect on the safety of individuals and units and should therefore not be done. Spare parts must comply with the technical requirements. Recommendation: Only use original Hoval spare parts. 4 Operating instruction advice According to the accident prevention regulations in certain countries the owner of the system must advise the operating personnel of all possible risks and preventive measures. This can be done with operating directions. Operating instructions are helpful in this case. In addition to emphasising important points, these instructions should contain local regulations for accident prevention and environmental protection. 5

TopVent DHV Intended Use 1 Intended use TopVent DHV are recirculation unit heaters for use in high spaces. Correct usage also entails adherence to the manufacturer's conditions for installation, initial start-up, operation and maintenance (operating instructions) as well as consideration of possible malfunctions and of hazards. 1.1 User group TopVent units are only to be installed, operated and serviced by authorised and trained specialists who are familiar with and have been instructed on the hazards. The operating instructions are for English-speaking works engineers and technicians as well as specialists in building, heating and ventilation technology. 1.2 Modes of operation TopVent DHV units have the following operating modes: Recirculation heating at low fan speed Recirculation heating at high fan speed Standby Off The application limits given in the 'Technical Data' section must be observed. Any utilisation beyond this is considered inappropriate. The manufacturer is not liable for any damages resulting therefrom. In standard design the units are not suitable for use in explosive atmospheres, in high humidity areas or in rooms with a high dust load. 1.3 Hazards Despite all of the preventive measures that have been taken, there are certain hazards, which may not be obvious, e.g.: Danger when working on the electrical system Items (e.g. tools) can drop down when work is being done on the TopVent unit Malfunctions due to defective parts Danger from hot water when working on the heating system 8

TopVent DHV Function and Construction B 2 Function and construction Heating section The TopVent DHV unit is used for recirculation heating; it has been specially developed for application in high spaces. The unit is installed under the ceiling. It takes in room air, heats it by means of the heater battery and injects it back into the room via the Air-Injector. Thanks to its powerful and efficient air distribution the TopVent DHV covers a large area. Therefore, in comparison with other systems, fewer units are needed to achieve the required environment. Three unit sizes, two-speed fans, different heater battery types and a wide variety of accessories provide a tailored solution for each application. Furthermore, special batteries (steam, electrical heating) are also available. 2.1 Unit construction The TopVent DHV consists of the heating section (with fan and heater battery) and the automatically adjustable vortex air distributor Air-Injector. These two components are bolted together and can be dismantled, even after installation. Air-Injector Fig. B2 1: TopVent DHV unit components 2.2 Air distribution with the Air-Injector The patented air distributor called the Air-Injector is the core element. Its controllable vane arrangement allows continuous adjustment of the air discharge angle. The setting depends on the air flow rate ( fan speed), the mounting height and the temperature difference between supply air and room air. Thus the air is injected into the room either vertically downwards, conically or horizontally, ensuring that a large floor area is reached with each TopVent DHV unit no draughts occur in the occupied area temperature stratification in the room is reduced and thus energy is saved.

TopVent DHV Control Systems B 5 Control systems For TopVent DHV units, specially developed and optimised components for room temperature and air distribution control are available from Hoval. For a detailed description of these components please refer to part L 'Control systems' of this handbook. 5.1 Room temperature control TempTronic EasyTronic This is a programmable, electronic temperature controller allowing fully automatic operation. Its control algorithm with fuzzy logic ensures smallest room temperature deviations from setpoints and minimises energy consumption. This is a basic temperature controller without clock. The desired room temperature is manually adjusted and the fan speed selected with a switch. Table B5 1: Room temperature control systems for TopVent DHV 5.2 Air distribution control Automatic control with the VarioTronic The VarioTronic is an electronic controller for the Air-Injector. It adjusts air distribution for changing operating conditions (fan speed, temperature difference between supply air and room air) and works independently of room temperature control. Manual control by means of potentiometer and actuator Where operating conditions change rarely or comfort requirements are not so high, air distribution may be controlled manually by means of a potentiometer. Fixed adjustment Where the basic conditions remain unchanged (constant supply air temperature, constant air flow rate), air distribution can be manually fixed at commissioning. Table B5 2: Air distribution control systems for TopVent DHV For indoor climate systems where TopVent DHV units are combined with RoofVent fresh air units all control is by Hoval DigiNet. 19

TopVent DHV System Design 6 System design Example Collect basic data Space dimensions (floor plan) Mounting height (= distance from floor to underside of the TopVent unit) Required heat output Desired room temperature Heating medium temperature (flow / return) Comfort requirements (acoustic) Space dimensions...50 m x 70 m Mounting height...10 m Required heat output...350 kw Desired room temperature...20 C Heating medium temperature... 80 / 60 C Comfort requirements...standard Comfort requirements (acoustic) According to acoustic requirements define the fan speed: Low sound level low fan speed (speed I) Normal sound level high fan speed (speed ) In this project the acoustic requirements are 'standard', hence use the high fan speed (speed ) for design calculations. Mounting height With the minimum mounting height (table B3-9) check which units can be used. Check maximum mounting height according to heating medium temperature and inlet air temperature (= room temperature) (tables B3-4, B3-5 and B3-6). Eliminate units that cannot be used. According to table B3-9 the minimum mounting heights are: DHV-6... 4 m DHV-9, DHV-10... 5 m Consequently, all sizes can be used in this project with a mounting height of 10 m. According to tables B3-4, B3-5 and B3-6 and the given conditions (heating medium temperature 80 / 60 C, inlet air temperature 20 C) the following unit types cannot be employed due to the maximum mounting height: DHV-6 / C... H max = 9.0 m DHV-9 / C... H max = 9.4 m Minimum and maximum number of units For determining the minimum number of units three criteria must be fulfilled: a) Minimum number relating to floor area Table B3-1 indicates the maximum floor area that can be reached with TopVent DHV units. With these values and the given floor area the minimum number of units can be determined for each unit size and coil type. b) Minimum number relating to space dimensions (length x width) Depending on space dimensions, a certain minimum number of units are required in the length and in the width. This can be calculated from the maximum distances between units and to the wall (see table B3-9). Calculate the minimum numbers according to a), b) and c) for each unit type and enter them in a table. Then take the highest value as minimum number of units d). Calculate the maximum possible number according to e) and enter the values in the table. 20

TopVent DHV System Design B c) Minimum number relating to heat output The minimum number for each unit size and coil type can be calculated from the required total heat output (tables B3-4, B3-5 and B3-6). d) Effective minimum number of units The highest value of the foregoing calculations a), b) and c) is the effective minimum number of units that should be installed. e) Maximum number of units The minimum number determined under d) normally corresponds to the solution selected in practice as it incurs the lowest costs. Yet if comfort requirements are particularly high more units may be provided. The maximum number of units is theoretically determined from the total floor area divided by the minimum floor area reached per unit X 2 (X = minimum distance between units, see table B3-9).

Due to the space dimensions, comfort requirements and the investment made available the solution with 6 TopVent DHV-9 / B is selected from the remaining variants. Automatic control Group units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, heat demand, operating times) into control zones. Check maximum switching power of the controller. Check if, in view of operating conditions, automatic control of the air distributor with the VarioTronic is worthwhile. The low-cost solution is 1 TempTronic controller for all 6 units: Switching power = 6 x 0.98 kw < 6.5 kw The maximum floor area reached depends on the one hand on local conditions and on the other hand on the quality of air distribution. Due to the complexity of air flow mechanisms in large rooms the design quantities can only partly be mathematically described. The quality of the air distributor affects the supplied energy made available in the occupied area as a function of the air flow rate, the temperature difference between supply air and room air and the mounting height. Tests on the test rig and the experience of numerous applications show that with the Air-Injector this conversion of energy is effected with considerably higher efficiency than with other air distributors usually employed in recirculation units. This higher quality leads to lower running costs as well as to a larger floor area reached and thus fewer units are needed. To facilitate the design process concerning the floor area reached we have decided to dispense with complicated formulas and diagrams. However, it is important to keep to the limiting values and to make sure that the primary and secondary air flow can spread unhindered. If the given limits are exceeded in your application please seek Hoval advice. 21

TopVent DHV Transport and Installation 7 Transport and installation Transport and installation to be carried out by experts only! A lifting appliance is required for transportation and installation of the units! Do not tilt or lay the unit on its side! 7.1 Installation For fastening to the ceiling, the unit is equipped with four M10 captive nuts with hexagon head screws and washers as standard. With these and the height adjustable suspension set (option) the unit is easily fixed to the ceiling. The captive nuts are only designed for the unit's own weight. Do not put on any additional loads! The captive nuts cannot sustain a bending moment; therefore do not use eyebolts! Installation by means of steel flat, slotted steel flat, angle or steel wire is also possible, but the following has to be considered: 7.2 Hydraulic installation Hydraulic installation to be carried out by experts only! Combine units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, heat gain, operating time, etc.) into one control zone. Low or medium pressure hot water up to 120 C can be used as a heating medium. To save energy, the distributor can be pre-calibrated; it should, however, be ensured that the heat requirement of each heater battery can always be met. Connect the individual heating coils as shown in figure B7 2. Depending on local conditions, it should also be considered whether compensations for flow and return pipework are needed to balance the longitudinal expansion and / or flexible connections for the units. The heat exchanger cannot take up any extra load, e.g. through the flow or return pipe. The individual units within a control zone must be hydraulically balanced to ensure even temperatures. Non-vertical suspensions are permissible up to a maximum angle of 45.

TopVent DKV Intended Use 1 Intended use TopVent DKV are recirculation unit heaters and coolers for use in high spaces. Correct usage also entails adherence to the manufacturer's conditions for installation, initial start-up, operation and maintenance (operating instructions) as well as consideration of possible malfunctions and of hazards. 1.1 User group TopVent units are only to be installed, operated and serviced by authorised and trained specialists who are familiar with and have been instructed on the hazards. The operating instructions are for English-speaking works engineers and technicians as well as specialists in building, heating and ventilation technology. 1.2 Modes of operation TopVent DKV units have the following operating modes: Recirculation heating / cooling at low fan speed Recirculation heating / cooling at high fan speed Standby Off The application limits given in the 'Technical Data' section must be observed. Any utilisation beyond this is considered inappropriate. The manufacturer is not liable for any damages resulting therefrom. The units are not suitable for use in explosive atmospheres, in high humidity areas or in rooms with a high dust load. 1.3 Hazards Despite all of the preventive measures that have been taken, there are certain hazards, which may not be obvious, e.g.: Danger when working on the electrical system Items (e.g. tools) can drop down when work is being done on the TopVent unit Malfunctions due to defective parts Danger from hot water when working on the heating system 28

TopVent DKV Function and Construction C 2 Function and construction The TopVent DKV is used for recirculation heating and cooling; it has been specially developed for application in high spaces. The unit is installed under the ceiling. It takes in room air, heats or cools it and injects it back into the room via the Air-Injector. Thanks to its powerful and efficient air distribution the TopVent DKV covers a large area. Therefore, in comparison with other systems, fewer units are needed to achieve the required environment. Two unit sizes, two-speed fans, different coil types and a wide variety of accessories provide a tailored solution for each application. 2.1 Unit construction The TopVent DKV consists of the heating / cooling section (with fan, heat exchanger and built-in condensate separator) and the automatically adjustable vortex air distributor Air-Injector. To avoid condensation on the outer surface the heating / cooling section is insulated. The components are bolted together and can be dismantled, even after installation. Heating / cooling section Air-Injector Fig. C2 1: TopVent DKV unit components 2.2 Air distribution with the Air-Injector The patented air distributor called the Air-Injector is the core element. Its controllable vane arrangement allows continuous adjustment of the air discharge angle. The setting depends on the air flow rate ( fan speed), the mounting height and the temperature difference between supply air and room air. Thus the air is injected into the room either vertically downwards, conically or horizontally, ensuring that a large floor area is reached with each TopVent DKV unit no draughts occur in the occupied area temperature stratification in the room is reduced and thus energy is saved.

TopVent DKV Control Systems 5 Control systems For TopVent DKV units, specially developed and optimised components for room temperature and air distribution control are available from Hoval. For a detailed description of these components please refer to part L 'Control systems' of this handbook. 5.1 Room temperature control TempTronic This is a programmable, electronic temperature controller allowing fully automatic operation. Its control algorithm with fuzzy logic ensures smallest room temperature deviations from setpoints and minimises energy consumption. Table C5 1: Room temperature control systems for TopVent DKV 5.2 Air distribution control Automatic control with the VarioTronic The VarioTronic is an electronic controller for the Air-Injector. It adjusts air distribution for changing operating conditions (fan speed, temperature difference between supply air and room air) and works independently of room temperature control. Manual control by means of potentiometer and actuator Where operating conditions change rarely or comfort requirements are not so high, air distribution may be controlled manually by means of a potentiometer. Fixed adjustment Where the basic conditions remain unchanged (constant supply air temperature, constant air flow rate), air distribution can be manually fixed at commissioning. Table C5 2: Air distribution control systems for TopVent DKV For indoor climate systems where TopVent DKV units are combined with RoofVent fresh air units all control is by Hoval DigiNet. 38

TopVent DKV System Design C 6 System design Example Usually, the primary function of TopVent DKV units is cooling; for this reason the design process is described for this function. The design for heating can be made in a similar way to the example in part B 'TopVent DHV'. Collect basic data Space dimensions (floor plan) Mounting height (= distance from floor to underside of the TopVent unit) Required cooling capacity Desired room conditions Cooling medium temperature (flow / return) Comfort requirements (acoustic) Space dimensions...55 m x 86 m Mounting height...8 m Required cooling capacity...190 kw Desired room conditions...26 C / 50 % Cooling medium temperature... 8 / 14 C Comfort requirements...standard Comfort requirements (acoustic) According to acoustic requirements define the fan speed: Low sound level low fan speed (speed I) Normal sound level high fan speed (speed ) In this project the acoustic requirements are 'standard', hence use the high fan speed (speed ) for design calculations. Mounting height With the minimum mounting height (table C3-9) check which units can be used. According to table C3-9 the minimum mounting heights are: DKV-6... 4 m DKV-9... 5 m Consequently, all sizes can be used in this project with a mounting height of 8 m. Minimum and maximum number of units For determining the minimum number of units three criteria must be fulfilled: a) Minimum number relating to floor area Table C3-1 indicates the maximum floor area that can be reached with TopVent DKV units. With these values and the given floor area the minimum number of units can be determined for each unit size and coil type. b) Minimum number relating to space dimensions (length x width) Depending on space dimensions, a certain minimum number of units are required in the length and in the width.

Yet if comfort requirements are particularly high more units may be provided. The maximum number of units is theoretically determined from the total floor area divided by the minimum floor area reached per unit X 2 (X = minimum distance between units, see table C3-9). Definite number of units According to space dimensions, comfort requirements and costs, select the optimum solution from the remaining alternatives. Due to the space dimensions, comfort requirements and the investment made available the solution with 7 TopVent DKV-9 / D is selected from the remaining variants. Automatic control Group units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, cooling load, operating times) into control zones. Check maximum switching power of the controller. Check if, in view of operating conditions, automatic control of the air distributor with the VarioTronic is worthwhile. The low-cost solution is 3 TempTronic controllers: Switching power = 3 x 1.65 kw < 6.5 kw 2 x 1.65 kw < 6.5 kw 2 x 1.65 kw < 6.5 kw The maximum floor area reached depends on the one hand on local conditions and on the other hand on the quality of air distribution. Due to the complexity of air flow mechanisms in large rooms the design quantities can only partly be mathematically described. The quality of the air distributor affects the supplied energy made available in the occupied area as a function of the air flow rate, the temperature difference between supply air and room air and the mounting height. Tests on the test rig and the experience of numerous applications show that with the Air-Injector this conversion of energy is effected with considerably higher efficiency than with other air distributors usually employed in recirculation units. This higher quality leads to lower running costs as well as to a larger floor area reached and thus fewer units are needed. To facilitate the design process concerning the floor area reached we have decided to dispense with complicated formulas and diagrams. However, it is important to keep to the limiting values and to make sure that the primary and secondary air flow can spread unhindered. If the given limits are exceeded in your application please seek Hoval advice. 40

TopVent DKV Transport and Installation C 7 Transport and installation Transport and installation to be carried out by experts only! A lifting appliance is required for transportation and installation of the units! Do not tilt or lay the unit on its side! 7.1 Installation For fastening to the ceiling, the unit is equipped with four M10 captive nuts with hexagon head screws and washers as standard. With these and the height adjustable suspension set (option) the unit is easily fixed to the ceiling. The captive nuts are only designed for the unit's own weight. Do not put on any additional loads! The captive nuts cannot sustain a bending moment; therefore do not use eyebolts! Installation by means of steel flat, slotted steel flat, angle or steel wire is also possible, but the following has to be considered: 7.2 Hydraulic installation Hydraulic installation to be carried out by experts only! Combine units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, heat gain, operating time, etc.) into one control zone. Low or medium pressure hot water up to 120 C can be used as a heating medium. To save energy, the distributor can be pre-calibrated; it should, however, be ensured that the heat requirement of each heater battery can always be met. Connect the individual heating / cooling coils as shown in figure C7 2. Depending on local conditions, it should also be considered whether compensations for flow and return pipework are needed to balance the longitudinal expansion and / or flexible connections for the units. The heat exchanger cannot take up any extra load, e.g. through the flow or return pipe. Adequately size the slope and cross section of the condensate drain to prevent a condensate backwash. Install a 200 mm trap. The individual units within a control zone must be hydraulically balanced to ensure even temperatures. Non-vertical suspensions are permissible up to a maximum angle of 45. The unit must be installed with its top face horizontal (level)! max. 45 max. 45 Air vent Balancing valve Drain cocks Isolating valves Flow Return Condensate drain (with trap) 2-port valve Fig. C7 1: Suspension of TopVent DKV Fig. C7 2: Heating / cooling coil connection 41

TopVent NHV Intended Use 1 Intended use TopVent NHV are recirculation unit heaters for use in high spaces. Correct usage also entails adherence to the manufacturer's conditions for installation, initial start-up, operation and maintenance (operating instructions) as well as consideration of possible malfunctions and of hazards. 1.1 User group TopVent units are only to be installed, operated and serviced by authorised and trained specialists who are familiar with and have been instructed on the hazards. The operating instructions are for English-speaking works engineers and technicians as well as specialists in building, heating and ventilation technology. 1.2 Modes of operation TopVent NHV units have the following operating modes: Recirculation heating at low fan speed Recirculation heating at high fan speed Standby Off The application limits given in the 'Technical Data' section must be observed. Any utilisation beyond this is considered inappropriate. The manufacturer is not liable for any damages resulting therefrom. In standard design the units are not suitable for use in explosive atmospheres, in high humidity areas or in rooms with a high dust load. 1.3 Hazards Despite all of the preventive measures that have been taken, there are certain hazards, which may not be obvious, e.g.: Danger when working on the electrical system Items (e.g. tools) can drop down when work is being done on the TopVent unit Malfunctions due to defective parts Danger from hot water when working on the heating system 46

TopVent NHV Function and Construction 2 Function and construction Heating section The TopVent NHV unit is used for cost-effective recirculation heating in high spaces. The unit is installed under the ceiling. It takes in room air, heats it by means of the heater battery and injects it back into the room via the outlet nozzle. The air discharge angle cannot be adjusted with the TopVent NHV. Therefore the unit is specially suited for applications where comfort requirements are relatively low (e.g. high racking warehouses). Thanks to its high efficiency the TopVent NHV unit heater covers a large area. Therefore, in comparison with other systems, fewer units are needed to achieve the required environment. Three unit sizes, two-speed fans, different heater battery types and a wide variety of accessories provide a tailored solution for each application. Furthermore, special batteries (steam, electrical heating) are also available. The TopVent NHV consists of the heating section (with fan and heater battery) and the outlet nozzle. These two components are bolted together and can be dismantled, even after installation.

TopVent NHV Control Systems 5 Control systems For TopVent NHV units, specially developed and optimised components for room temperature control are available from Hoval. For a detailed description of these components please refer to part L 'Control systems' of this handbook. D TempTronic EasyTronic This is a programmable, electronic temperature controller allowing fully automatic operation. Its control algorithm with fuzzy logic ensures smallest room temperature deviations from setpoints and minimises energy consumption. This is a basic temperature controller without clock. The desired room temperature is manually adjusted and the fan speed selected with a switch. Table D5 1: Room temperature control systems for TopVent NHV For indoor climate systems where TopVent NHV units are combined with RoofVent fresh air units all control is by Hoval DigiNet. 57

TopVent NHV System Design 6 System design Example Collect basic data Space dimensions (floor plan) Mounting height (= distance from floor to underside of the TopVent unit) Required heat output Desired room temperature Heating medium temperature (flow / return) Space dimensions...38 m x 62 m Mounting height...15 m Required heat output...290 kw Desired room temperature...15 C Heating medium temperature... 70 / 50 C Mounting height With the minimum mounting height (table D3-9) check which units can be used. Check maximum mounting height according to heating medium temperature and inlet air temperature (= room temperature) (tables D3-4, D3-5 and D3-6). Eliminate units that cannot be used. According to table D3-9 the minimum mounting heights are: NHV-6... 6 m NHV-9... 7 m NHV-10... 8 m Consequently, all sizes can be used in this project with a mounting height of 15 m. According to tables D3-4, D3-5 and D3-6 and the given conditions (heating medium temperature 70 / 50 C, inlet air temperature 15 C) the following unit types cannot be employed due to the maximum mounting height: NHV-6 / B... H max = 12.9 m NHV-6 / C... H max = 9.4 m NHV-9 / B... H max = 14.5 m NHV-9 / C... H max = 10.8 m NHV-10 / C... H max = 12.2 m Minimum and maximum number of units For determining the minimum number of units three criteria must be fulfilled: a) Minimum number relating to floor area Table D3-1 indicates the maximum floor area that can be reached with TopVent NHV units. With these values and the given floor area the minimum number of units can be determined for each unit size and coil type. b) Minimum number relating to space dimensions (length x width) Depending on space dimensions, a certain minimum number of units are required in the length and in the width. This can be calculated from the maximum distances between units and to the wall (see table D3-9). c) Minimum number relating to heat output The minimum number for each unit size and coil type can be calculated from the required total heat output (tables D3-4, D3-5 and D3-6). Calculate the minimum numbers according to a), b) and c) for each unit type and enter them in a table. Then take the highest value as minimum number of units d). Calculate the maximum possible number according to e) and enter the values in the table. 58

TopVent NHV System Design d) Effective minimum number of units The highest value of the foregoing calculations a), b) and c) is the effective minimum number of units that should be installed. e) Maximum number of units The minimum number determined under d) normally corresponds to the solution selected in practice as it incurs the lowest costs. Yet if comfort requirements are particularly high more units may be provided. The maximum number of units is theoretically determined from the total floor area divided by the minimum floor area reached per unit X 2 (X = minimum distance between units, see table D3-9).

Due to the space dimensions, comfort requirements and the investment made available the solution with 5 TopVent NHV-10 / B is selected from the remaining variants. Automatic control Group units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, heat demand, operating times) into control zones. Check maximum switching power of the controller. The low-cost solution is 2 TempTronic controllers: Switching power = 3 x 1.53 kw < 6.5 kw 2 x 1.53 kw < 6.5 kw 59

TopVent NHV Transport and Installation 7 Transport and installation Transport and installation to be carried out by experts only! A lifting appliance is required for transportation and installation of the units! Do not tilt or lay the unit on its side! 7.1 Installation For fastening to the ceiling, the unit is equipped with four M10 captive nuts with hexagon head screws and washers as standard. With these and the height adjustable suspension set (option) the unit is easily fixed to the ceiling. The captive nuts are only designed for the unit's own weight. Do not put on any additional loads! The captive nuts cannot sustain a bending moment; therefore do not use eyebolts! Installation by means of steel flat, slotted steel flat, angle or steel wire is also possible, but the following has to be considered: 7.2 Hydraulic installation Hydraulic installation to be carried out by experts only! Combine units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, heat gain, operating time, etc.) into one control zone. Low or medium pressure hot water up to 120 C can be used as a heating medium. To save energy, the distributor can be pre-calibrated; it should, however, be ensured that the heat requirement of each heater battery can always be met. Connect the individual heating coils as shown in figure D7 2. Depending on local conditions, it should also be considered whether compensations for flow and return pipework are needed to balance the longitudinal expansion and / or flexible connections for the units. The heat exchanger cannot take up any extra load, e.g. through the flow or return pipe. The individual units within a control zone must be hydraulically balanced to ensure even temperatures. Non-vertical suspensions are permissible up to a maximum angle of 45. The unit must be installed with its top face horizontal (level)! max. 45 max. 45 Air vent Balancing valve Drain cocks Isolating valves Flow Return Fig. D7 1: Suspension of TopVent NHV Fig. D7 2: Heating coil connection 60

TopVent commercial CAU Intended Use 1 Intended use 2 Function and construction TopVent commercial CAU are used for ventilating, heating and cooling large spaces in fresh air, mixed air or recirculation operation. Correct usage also entails adherence to the manufacturer's conditions for installation, initial start-up, operation and maintenance (operating instructions) as well as consideration of possible malfunctions and of hazards. 1.1 User group TopVent units are only to be installed, operated and serviced by authorised and trained specialists who are familiar with and have been instructed on the hazards. The operating instructions are for English-speaking works engineers and technicians as well as specialists in building, heating and ventilation technology. 1.2 Modes of operation TopVent commercial CAU have the following operating modes: Fresh air, mixed air or recirculation operation at low fan speed (0... 100 % fresh air) Fresh air, mixed air or recirculation operation at high fan speed (0... 100 % fresh air) Standby Off The application limits given in the 'Technical Data' section must be observed. Any utilisation beyond this is considered inappropriate. The manufacturer is not liable for any damages resulting therefrom. The units are not suitable for use in explosive atmospheres, in high humidity areas or in rooms with a high dust load. The TopVent commercial CAU is used for ventilating, heating and cooling in fresh air, mixed air or recirculation modes; it has been specially developed for application in hypermarkets and supermarkets. The unit is installed in the roof with the integrated roof frame. Depending on the damper position, it takes in fresh air and / or room air, filters it, heats or cools it and injects it back into the room via the Air-Injector. Thanks to its powerful and efficient air distribution the TopVent commercial CAU covers a large area. Therefore, in comparison with other systems, fewer units are needed to achieve the required environment. As the units are installed in the roof, they do not protrude far into the room and maintenance works are carried out from roof level, without disruption of business. 2.1 Unit construction The TopVent commercial CAU consists of the following components: Roof hood for fresh air (with two weather protection grilles, inspection door, two filters G4 and differential pressure switch for filter supervision) Mixed air box (with fresh air / recirculation dampers and actuator) Roof frame Heating / cooling section (with fan, heat exchanger and built-in condensate separator) Automatically adjustable vortex air distributor Air-Injector To avoid condensation on the outer surface the roof hood and the heating / cooling section are insulated. The components are bolted together and can be dismantled, even after installation. 1.3 Hazards Despite all of the preventive measures that have been taken, there are certain hazards, which may not be obvious, e.g.: Danger when working on the electrical system Items (e.g. tools) can drop down when work is being done on the TopVent unit Malfunctions due to defective parts Danger from hot water when working on the heating system Roof hood for fresh air Mixed air box Roof frame Heating / cooling section Air-Injector Fig. E2 1: TopVent commercial CAU unit components 66

TopVent commercial CAU Function and Construction Casing: consisting of corrosion-resistant Aluzinc sheet steel Fan: axial fan with low energy consumption, quiet and maintenance-free Heat exchanger: LPHW / chilled water coil consisting of copper tubes with aluminium fins Condensate separator: with condensate drain connection Frost stat: installed on the heat exchanger Terminal box: with isolation switch, easily accessible behind the inspection door Air-Injector: patented, automatically adjustable vortex air distributor for draught-free air distribution over a large area Mixed air box: with fresh air / recirculation dampers (made from aluminium extrusions with plastic gear wheels) and actuator Roof hood: insulated, easily removable with four hand grips, with two weather protection grilles, two filters G4 and differential pressure switch for filter supervision Roof frame: made of sheet steel E Fig. E2 2: Construction of TopVent commercial CAU 2.2 Air distribution with the Air-Injector The patented air distributor called the Air-Injector is the core element. Its controllable vane arrangement allows continuous adjustment of the air discharge angle. The setting depends on the air flow rate ( fan speed), the mounting height and the temperature difference between supply air and room air. Thus the air is injected into the room either vertically downwards, conically or horizontally, ensuring that a large floor area is reached with each TopVent commercial CAU no draughts occur in the occupied area temperature stratification in the room is reduced and thus energy is saved. 67

TopVent commercial CAU Control Systems 5 Control systems For TopVent commercial CAU, specially developed and optimised components for room temperature, air distribution and fresh air rate control are available from Hoval. For a detailed description of these components please refer to part L 'Control systems' of this handbook. 5.1 Integrated system DigiNet (detailed description on request) Ideally, TopVent commercial CAU are controlled by DigiNet. This is an integrated system that has been specially developed for Hoval indoor climate systems. It controls room temperature as well as air distribution and constantly optimises the fresh air rate (i.e. just as much fresh air is taken in as necessary to maintain the room temperature without additional heating or cooling). For control by DigiNet, a DigiUnit terminal box is installed in the TopVent commercial CAU (instead of the standard terminal box). Table E5 1: Integrated control system for TopVent commercial CAU E 5.2 Room temperature control TempTronic This is a programmable, electronic temperature controller allowing fully automatic operation. Its control algorithm with fuzzy logic ensures smallest room temperature deviations from setpoints and minimises energy consumption. Table E5 2: Room temperature control systems for TopVent commercial CAU 5.3 Air distribution control Automatic control with the VarioTronic The VarioTronic is an electronic controller for the Air-Injector. It adjusts air distribution for changing operating conditions (fan speed, temperature difference between supply air and room air) and works independently of room temperature control. Manual control by means of potentiometer and actuator Where operating conditions change rarely or comfort requirements are not so high, air distribution may be controlled manually by means of a potentiometer. Fixed adjustment Where the basic conditions remain unchanged (constant supply air temperature, constant air flow rate), air distribution can be manually fixed at commissioning. Table E5 3: Air distribution control systems for TopVent commercial CAU 5.4 Fresh air rate control Manual control by means of potentiometer and actuator Where comfort requirements are not so high, the fresh air rate may be controlled manually by means of a potentiometer. Table E5 4: Fresh air rate control systems for TopVent commercial CAU 75

TopVent commercial CAU System Design 6 System design Example Usually, the primary function of TopVent commercial CAU is cooling; for this reason the design process is described for this function. The design for heating can be made in a similar way to the example in part G 'TopVent MH'. Collect basic data Space dimensions (floor plan) Mounting height (= distance from floor to underside of the TopVent unit) Required cooling capacity Desired room conditions Cooling medium temperature (flow / return) Comfort requirements (acoustic) Fresh air temperature Minimum fresh air flow rate (The fresh air rate can be adjusted as desired between 0 % and 100 %; for an efficient use of energy the design calculation is to be based on a minimum value.) Space dimensions...65 m x 75 m Mounting height...6 m Required cooling capacity...175 kw Desired room conditions...24 C / 50 % Cooling medium temperature... 10 / 16 C Comfort requirements...standard Fresh air temperature...32 C Minimum fresh air flow rate...12000 m³ / h Comfort requirements (acoustic) According to acoustic requirements define the fan speed: Low sound level low fan speed (speed I) Normal sound level high fan speed (speed ) In this project the acoustic requirements are 'standard', hence use the high fan speed (speed ) for design calculations. Mounting height With the minimum mounting height (table E3-8) check which units can be used. According to table E3-8 the minimum mounting height is: CAU-9... 5 m Consequently, all sizes can be used in this project with a mounting height of 6 m. Minimum and maximum number of units For determining the minimum number of units three criteria must be fulfilled: a) Minimum number relating to floor area Table E3-1 indicates the maximum floor area that can be reached with TopVent commercial CAU units. With these values and the given floor area the minimum number of units can be determined for each unit size and coil type. b) Minimum number relating to space dimensions (length x width) Depending on space dimensions, a certain minimum number of units are required in the length and in the width. This can be calculated from the maximum distances between units and to the wall (see table E3-8). Calculate the minimum numbers according to a), b) and c) for each unit type and enter them in a table. Then take the highest value as minimum number of units d). Calculate the maximum possible number according to e) and enter the values in the table. 76

TopVent commercial CAU System Design c) Minimum number relating to cooling capacity The minimum number for each unit size and coil type can be calculated from the required total cooling capacity (table E3-5). Please note that only the sensible cooling capacity Q sen is available for cooling of the space while the total capacity Q tot must be used for sizing the chiller. Type a) b) c) d) e) CAU-9 8 9 8 9 33 d) Effective minimum number of units The highest value of the foregoing calculations a), b) and c) is the effective minimum number of units that should be installed. e) Maximum number of units The minimum number determined under d) normally corresponds to the solution selected in practice as it incurs the lowest costs. Yet if comfort requirements are particularly high more units may be provided. The maximum number of units is theoretically determined from the total floor area divided by the minimum floor area reached per unit X 2 (X = minimum distance between units, see table E3-8). E Definite number of units According to space dimensions, comfort requirements and costs, select the optimum solution from the remaining alternatives. Due to the space dimensions, comfort requirements and the investment made available the solution with 9 TopVent commercial CAU-9 is selected. Fresh air rate Calculate the minimum fresh air rate from the air flow rate of the selected units (see table E3-1) and the required minimum fresh air flow rate. Total air flow rate: 9 x 6800 m³ / h = 61200 m³ / h Minimum fresh air flow rate: 12000 m³ / h Minimum fresh air rate: 20 % Automatic control Ideally, TopVent commercial CAU are controlled by DigiNet; this system is perfectly suited to control all unit functions. If a TempTronic is used for room temperature control, check maximum switching power. The maximum floor area reached depends on the one hand on local conditions and on the other hand on the quality of air distribution. Due to the complexity of air flow mechanisms in large rooms the design quantities can only partly be mathematically described. The quality of the air distributor affects the supplied energy made available in the occupied area as a function of the air flow rate, the temperature difference between supply air and room air and the mounting height. Tests on the test rig and the experience of numerous applications show that with the Air-Injector this conversion of energy is effected with considerably higher efficiency than with other air distributors usually employed in recirculation units. This higher quality leads to lower running costs as well as to a larger floor area reached and thus fewer units are needed. To facilitate the design process concerning the floor area reached we have decided to dispense with complicated formulas and diagrams. However, it is important to keep to the limiting values and to make sure that the primary and secondary air flow can spread unhindered. If the given limits are exceeded in your application please seek Hoval advice. 77

TopVent commercial CAU Transport and Installation 7 Transport and installation Transport and installation to be carried out by experts only! A lifting appliance is required for transportation and installation of the units! Do not tilt or lay the unit on its side! 7.1 Installation The TopVent commercial CAU comes completely assembled with roof frame and roof hood. Installation is carried out from roof level: Hook lifting gear into the four lugs at the side of the unit. Lift the unit and turn the coil connections in the required position. Place the unit onto the roof opening and secure it. Insulate and seal the roof frame from the outside. The roof frame support must be level and horizontal. Alternatively, the unit can be installed in two steps: First install the roof frame with the roof hood, then take off the roof hood and insert the ventilation unit from above. 7.2 Hydraulic installation Hydraulic installation to be carried out by experts only! For easy and quick hydraulic installation use the options 'Hydraulic assembly' and 'Condensate pump'! Combine units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, heat gain, operating time, etc.) into one control zone. Low or medium pressure hot water up to 120 C can be used as a heating medium. To save energy, the distributor can be pre-calibrated; it should, however, be ensured that the heat requirement of each heater battery can always be met. Connect the individual heating / cooling coils as shown in figure E7 1. Depending on local conditions, it should also be considered whether compensations for flow and return pipework are needed to balance the longitudinal expansion and / or flexible connections for the units. The heat exchanger cannot take up any extra load, e.g. through the flow or return pipe. Adequately size the slope and cross section of the condensate drain to prevent a condensate backwash. Install a 200 mm trap. The individual units within a control zone must be hydraulically balanced to ensure even temperatures.

TopVent commercial CUM Intended Use 1 Intended use 2 Function and construction TopVent commercial CUM are used for heating and cooling large spaces in recirculation operation. Correct usage also entails adherence to the manufacturer's conditions for installation, initial start-up, operation and maintenance (operating instructions) as well as consideration of possible malfunctions and of hazards. 1.1 User group TopVent units are only to be installed, operated and serviced by authorised and trained specialists who are familiar with and have been instructed on the hazards. The operating instructions are for English-speaking works engineers and technicians as well as specialists in building, heating and ventilation technology. 1.2 Modes of operation TopVent commercial CUM have the following operating modes: Recirculation heating / cooling at low fan speed Recirculation heating / cooling at high fan speed Standby Off The application limits given in the 'Technical Data' section must be observed. Any utilisation beyond this is considered inappropriate. The manufacturer is not liable for any damages resulting therefrom. The TopVent commercial CUM is used for recirculation heating and cooling; it has been specially developed for application in hypermarkets and supermarkets. the unit is installed in the roof with the integrated roof frame. It takes in room air, heats or cools it and injects it back into the room via the Air-Injector. Thanks to its powerful and efficient air distribution the TopVent commercial CUM covers a large area. Therefore, in comparison with other systems, fewer units are needed to achieve the required environment. As the units are installed in the roof, they do not protrude far into the room and maintenance works are carried out from roof level, without disruption of business. 2.1 Unit construction The TopVent commercial CUM consists of the following components: Roof hood for recirculation (with inspection door) Roof frame Heating / cooling section (with fan, heat exchanger and built-in condensate separator) Automatically adjustable vortex air distributor Air-Injector To avoid condensation on the outer surface the roof hood and the heating / cooling section are insulated. The components are bolted together and can be dismantled, even after installation. The units are not suitable for use in explosive atmospheres, in high humidity areas or in rooms with a high dust load. 1.3 Hazards Despite all of the preventive measures that have been taken, there are certain hazards, which may not be obvious, e.g.: Danger when working on the electrical system Items (e.g. tools) can drop down when work is being done on the TopVent unit Malfunctions due to defective parts Danger from hot water when working on the heating system Roof hood for recirculation Roof frame Heating / cooling section Air-Injector Fig. F2 1: TopVent commercial CUM unit components 84

TopVent commercial CUM Function and Construction Casing: consisting of corrosion-resistant Aluzinc sheet steel Fan: axial fan with low energy consumption, quiet and maintenance-free Heat exchanger: LPHW / chilled water coil consisting of copper tubes with aluminium fins Condensate separator: with condensate drain connection Terminal box: with isolation switch, easily accessible behind the inspection door Air-Injector: patented, automatically adjustable vortex air distributor for draught-free air distribution over a large area Roof hood: insulated, easily removable with four hand grips Roof frame: made of sheet steel F Fig. F2 2: Construction of TopVent commercial CUM 2.2 Air distribution with the Air-Injector The patented air distributor called the Air-Injector is the core element. Its controllable vane arrangement allows continuous adjustment of the air discharge angle. The setting depends on the air flow rate ( fan speed), the mounting height and the temperature difference between supply air and room air. Thus the air is injected into the room either vertically downwards, conically or horizontally, ensuring that a large floor area is reached with each TopVent commercial CUM no draughts occur in the occupied area temperature stratification in the room is reduced and thus energy is saved. 85

TopVent commercial CUM Control Systems 5 Control systems For TopVent commercial CUM, specially developed and optimised components for room temperature and air distribution control are available from Hoval. For a detailed description of these components please refer to part L 'Control systems' of this handbook. 5.1 Integrated system DigiNet (detailed description on request) Ideally, TopVent commercial CUM are controlled by DigiNet. This is an integrated system that has been specially developed for Hoval indoor climate systems. It controls room temperature as well as air distribution in fully automatic operation. For control by DigiNet, a DigiUnit terminal box is installed in the TopVent commercial CUM (instead of the standard terminal box). Table F5 1: Integrated control system for TopVent commercial CUM F 5.2 Room temperature control TempTronic This is a programmable, electronic temperature controller allowing fully automatic operation. Its control algorithm with fuzzy logic ensures smallest room temperature deviations from setpoints and minimises energy consumption. Table F5 2: Room temperature control systems for TopVent commercial CUM 5.3 Air distribution control Automatic control with the VarioTronic The VarioTronic is an electronic controller for the Air-Injector. It adjusts air distribution for changing operating conditions (fan speed, temperature difference between supply air and room air) and works independently of room temperature control. Manual control by means of potentiometer and actuator Where operating conditions change rarely or comfort requirements are not so high, air distribution may be controlled manually by means of a potentiometer. Fixed adjustment Where the basic conditions remain unchanged (constant supply air temperature, constant air flow rate), air distribution can be manually fixed at commissioning. Table F5 3: Air distribution control systems for TopVent commercial CUM 93

TopVent commercial CUM System Design 6 System design Example Usually, the primary function of TopVent commercial CUM is cooling; for this reason the design process is described for this function. The design for heating can be made in a similar way to the example in part B 'TopVent DHV'. Collect basic data Space dimensions (floor plan) Mounting height (= distance from floor to underside of the TopVent unit) Required cooling capacity Desired room conditions Cooling medium temperature (flow / return) Comfort requirements (acoustic) Space dimensions...40 m x 90 m Mounting height...7 m Required cooling capacity...255 kw Desired room conditions...28 C / 30 % Cooling medium temperature... 6 / 12 C Comfort requirements...standard Comfort requirements (acoustic) According to acoustic requirements define the fan speed: Low sound level low fan speed (speed I) Normal sound level high fan speed (speed ) In this project the acoustic requirements are 'standard', hence use the high fan speed (speed ) for design calculations. Mounting height With the minimum mounting height (table F3-8) check which units can be used. According to table F3-8 the minimum mounting height is: CUM-9... 5 m Consequently, all sizes can be used in this project with a mounting height of 7 m. Minimum and maximum number of units For determining the minimum number of units three criteria must be fulfilled: a) Minimum number relating to floor area Table F3-1 indicates the maximum floor area that can be reached with TopVent commercial CUM units. With these values and the given floor area the minimum number of units can be determined for each unit size and coil type. b) Minimum number relating to space dimensions (length x width) Depending on space dimensions, a certain minimum number of units are required in the length and in the width. This can be calculated from the maximum distances between units and to the wall (see table F3-8). Calculate the minimum numbers according to a), b) and c) for each unit type and enter them in a table. Then take the highest value as minimum number of units d). Calculate the maximum possible number according to e) and enter the values in the table. 94

TopVent commercial CUM System Design c) Minimum number relating to cooling capacity The minimum number for each unit size and coil type can be calculated from the required total cooling capacity (table F3-5). Please note that only the sensible cooling capacity Q sen is available for cooling of the space while the total capacity Q tot must be used for sizing the chiller. Type a) b) c) d) e) CUM-9 5 8 7 8 21 d) Effective minimum number of units The highest value of the foregoing calculations a), b) and c) is the effective minimum number of units that should be installed. e) Maximum number of units The minimum number determined under d) normally corresponds to the solution selected in practice as it incurs the lowest costs. Yet if comfort requirements are particularly high more units may be provided. The maximum number of units is theoretically determined from the total floor area divided by the minimum floor area reached per unit X 2 (X = minimum distance between units, see table F3-8). F Definite number of units According to space dimensions, comfort requirements and costs, select the optimum solution from the remaining alternatives. Due to the space dimensions, comfort requirements and the investment made available the solution with 8 TopVent commercial CUM-9 is selected. Automatic control Ideally, TopVent commercial CUM are controlled by DigiNet; this system is perfectly suited to control all unit functions. If a TempTronic is used for room temperature control, check maximum switching power. The maximum floor area reached depends on the one hand on local conditions and on the other hand on the quality of air distribution. Due to the complexity of air flow mechanisms in large rooms the design quantities can only partly be mathematically described. The quality of the air distributor affects the supplied energy made available in the occupied area as a function of the air flow rate, the temperature difference between supply air and room air and the mounting height. Tests on the test rig and the experience of numerous applications show that with the Air-Injector this conversion of energy is effected with considerably higher efficiency than with other air distributors usually employed in recirculation units. This higher quality leads to lower running costs as well as to a larger floor area reached and thus fewer units are needed. To facilitate the design process concerning the floor area reached we have decided to dispense with complicated formulas and diagrams. However, it is important to keep to the limiting values and to make sure that the primary and secondary air flow can spread unhindered. If the given limits are exceeded in your application please seek Hoval advice. 95

TopVent commercial CUM Transport and Installation 7 Transport and installation Transport and installation to be carried out by experts only! A lifting appliance is required for transportation and installation of the units! Do not tilt or lay the unit on its side! 7.1 Installation The TopVent commercial CUM comes completely assembled with roof frame and roof hood. Installation is carried out from roof level: Hook lifting gear into the four lugs at the side of the unit. Lift the unit and turn the coil connections in the required position. Place the unit onto the roof opening and secure it. Insulate and seal the roof frame from the outside. The roof frame support must be level and horizontal. Alternatively, the unit can be installed in two steps: First install the roof frame with the roof hood, then take off the roof hood and insert the ventilation unit from above. 7.2 Hydraulic installation Hydraulic installation to be carried out by experts only! For easy and quick hydraulic installation use the options 'Hydraulic assembly' and 'Condensate pump'! Combine units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, heat gain, operating time, etc.) into one control zone. Low or medium pressure hot water up to 120 C can be used as a heating medium. To save energy, the distributor can be pre-calibrated; it should, however, be ensured that the heat requirement of each heater battery can always be met. Connect the individual heating / cooling coils as shown in figure F7 1. Depending on local conditions, it should also be considered whether compensations for flow and return pipework are needed to balance the longitudinal expansion and / or flexible connections for the units. The heat exchanger cannot take up any extra load, e.g. through the flow or return pipe. Adequately size the slope and cross section of the condensate drain to prevent a condensate backwash. Install a 200 mm trap. The individual units within a control zone must be hydraulically balanced to ensure even temperatures.

TopVent commercial CUM Transport and Installation 7.3 Electrical installation The electrical connections to the unit must be carried out by an electrical expert. Relevant regulations must be observed. The unit is delivered ready for use. Check that the local operating voltage, frequency and fusing are in accordance with the information on the nameplate. If any discrepancies occur the unit must not be connected! Check cable diameters when using long wiring runs. Electrical installation to be carried out according to the wiring diagram for the control equipment. Connection of the TopVent units to be carried out according to the wiring diagram. Connect thermal relays built into the motor; otherwise the motor is not protected against overheating. F Do not forget to install a main switch for the whole system (control, units). Several TopVent units can be connected in parallel. Thermal relays and isolation switches must be wired in series! The condensate separator only works with the fan running. Therefore, switch off the cooling pump together with the fan. For TopVent commercial CUM in DigiNet design, electrical installation by the installer only requires: Mains supply (3 x 400 VAC / 50 Hz) LON bus cable (2 x 0.5 mm² twisted, input and output) Plug connection between mixing valve and DigiUnit terminal box Actuator for Air- Injector Supply air sensor (option) Room air sensor (option) Cooling valve (option) Filter pressure switch Condensate pump control (option) For TopVent commercial CUM in terminal box design the following electrical connections are to be provided by the installer: Mains supply (3 x 400 VAC / 50 Hz) Thermal relay Supply air sensor (option) Filter pressure switch Actuator for Air-Injector (option) Condensate pump (option) Plug connection between mixing valve and terminal box (option) Isolation switch Supply air fan 2-speed Thermal relay Condensate pump (option) Fig. F7 2: Wiring diagram for TopVent commercial CUM in terminal box design 97

TopVent MH Intended Use 1 Intended use 2 Function and construction TopVent MH is used for ventilating and heating high spaces with variable fresh air supply. Correct usage also entails adherence to the manufacturer's conditions for installation, initial start-up, operation and maintenance (operating instructions) as well as consideration of possible malfunctions and of hazards. 1.1 User group TopVent units are only to be installed, operated and serviced by authorised and trained specialists who are familiar with and have been instructed on the hazards. The operating instructions are for English-speaking works engineers and technicians as well as specialists in building, heating and ventilation technology. 1.2 Modes of operation TopVent MH units have the following operating modes: Fresh air, mixed air or recirculation operation at low fan speed (0...100 % fresh air) Fresh air, mixed air or recirculation operation at high fan speed (0...100 % fresh air) Standby Off The application limits given in the 'Technical Data' section must be observed. Any utilisation beyond this is considered inappropriate. The manufacturer is not liable for any damages resulting therefrom. The TopVent MH is used for ventilating and heating in fresh air, mixed air or recirculation operation; it has been specially developed for application in high spaces. The unit is installed under the ceiling and connected to a fresh air duct. Depending on the damper position it takes in fresh air and / or room air, heats it by means of the heater battery and injects it back into the room via the Air-Injector. Thanks to its powerful and efficient air distribution the TopVent MH covers a large area. Therefore, in comparison with other systems, fewer units are needed to achieve the required environment. Three unit sizes, 2-speed fans, different heater battery types and a wide variety of accessories provide a tailored solution for each application. Furthermore, special batteries (steam, electrical heating) are also available. 2.1 Unit construction The TopVent MH consists of the following components: Mixed air box (with fresh air / recirculation dampers) Filter box (with two bag filters class G4) Heating section (with fan and heater battery) Automatically adjustable vortex air distributor Air-Injector The components are bolted together and can be dismantled even after installation. The units are not suitable for use in explosive atmospheres, in high humidity areas or in rooms with a high dust load. 1.3 Hazards Despite all of the preventive measures that have been taken, there are certain hazards, which may not be obvious, e.g.: Danger when working on the electrical system Items (e.g. tools) can drop down when work is being done on the TopVent unit Malfunctions due to defective parts Danger from hot water when working on the heating system Mixed air box Filter box Heating section Air-Injector Fig. G2 1: TopVent MH unit components 102

Its controllable vane arrangement allows continuous adjustment of the air discharge angle. The setting depends on the air flow rate ( fan speed), the mounting height and the temperature difference between supply air and room air. Thus the air is injected into the room either vertically downwards, conically or horizontally, ensuring that a large floor area is reached with each TopVent MH unit no draughts occur in the occupied area temperature stratification in the room is reduced and thus energy is saved. 103

TopVent MH Control Systems 5 Control systems For TopVent MH units, specially developed and optimised components for room temperature, air distribution and fresh air rate control are available from Hoval. For a detailed description of these components please refer to part L 'Control systems' of this handbook. 5.1 Integrated system DigiNet (detailed description on request) Ideally, TopVent MH units are controlled by DigiNet. This is an integrated system that has been specially developed for Hoval indoor climate systems. It controls room temperature as well as air distribution and constantly optimises the fresh air rate (i.e. just as much fresh air is taken in as necessary to maintain the room temperature without additional heating). Table G5 1: Integrated control system for TopVent MH 5.2 Room temperature and fresh air rate control Basic control Basic control is a low-cost control system for TopVent MH units. It meets all requirements on modern recirculation heating, however, automatic control of the fresh air rate does not take place. Table G5 2: Room temperature and fresh air rate control systems for TopVent MH G 5.3 Air distribution control Automatic control with the VarioTronic The VarioTronic is an electronic controller for the Air-Injector. It adjusts air distribution for changing operating conditions (fan speed, temperature difference between supply air and room air) and works independently of room temperature control. Manual control by means of potentiometer and actuator Where operating conditions change rarely or comfort requirements are not so high, air distribution may be controlled manually by means of a potentiometer. Fixed adjustment Where the basic conditions remain unchanged (constant supply air temperature, constant air flow rate), air distribution can be manually fixed at commissioning.

TopVent MH System Design 6 System design Example Collect basic data Space dimensions (floor plan) Mounting height (= distance from floor to underside of the TopVent unit) Required heat output Desired room temperature Heating medium temperature (flow / return) Comfort requirements (acoustic) Fresh air temperature Minimum fresh air flow rate (The fresh air rate can be adjusted as desired between 0 % and 100 %; for an efficient use of energy the design calculation is to be based on a minimum value.) Space dimensions...60 m x 60 m Mounting height...8 m Required heat output...265 kw Desired room temperature...20 C Heating medium temperature... 80 / 60 C Comfort requirements...standard Fresh air temperature...-10 C Minimum fresh air flow rate...8300 m³ / h Comfort requirements (acoustic) According to acoustic requirements define the fan speed: Low sound level low fan speed (speed I) Normal sound level high fan speed (speed ) In this project the acoustic requirements are 'standard', hence use the high fan speed (speed ) for design calculations. Mounting height With the minimum mounting height (table G3-9) check which units can be used. Check maximum mounting height according to heating medium temperature and inlet air temperature (= room temperature) (tables G3-4, G3-5 and G3-6). Eliminate units that cannot be used. According to table G3-9 the minimum mounting heights are: MH-6... 4 m MH-9, MH-10... 5 m Consequently, all sizes can be used in this project with a mounting height of 8 m. According to tables G3-4, G3-5 and G3-6 and the given conditions (heating medium temperature 80 / 60 C, inlet air temperature 20 C) the following unit types cannot be employed due to the maximum mounting height: MH-6 / C... H max = 7.3 m Minimum and maximum number of units For determining the minimum number of units three criteria must be fulfilled: a) Minimum number relating to floor area Table G3-1 indicates the maximum floor area that can be reached with TopVent MH units. With these values and the given floor area the minimum number of units can be determined for each unit size and coil type. b) Minimum number relating to space dimensions (length x width) Depending on space dimensions, a certain minimum number of units are required in the length and in the width. This can be calculated from the maximum distances between units and to the wall (see table G3-9). Calculate the minimum numbers according to a), b) and c) for each unit type and enter them in a table. Then take the highest value as minimum number of units d). Calculate the maximum possible number according to e) and enter the values in the table. 114

TopVent MH System Design c) Minimum number relating to heat output The minimum number for each unit size and coil type can be calculated from the required total heat output (tables G3-4, G3-5 and G3-6). d) Effective minimum number of units The highest value of the foregoing calculations a), b) and c) is the effective minimum number of units that should be installed. e) Maximum number of units The minimum number determined under d) normally corresponds to the solution selected in practice as it incurs the lowest costs. Yet if comfort requirements are particularly high more units may be provided. The maximum number of units is theoretically determined from the total floor area divided by the minimum floor area reached per unit X 2 (X = minimum distance between units, see table G3-9). Type a) b) c) d) e) MH-6 / A 9 9 9 9 36 MH-6 / B 9 9 7 9 36 MH-6 / C no solution MH-9 / A 6 9 6 9 21 MH-9 / B 6 9 4 9 21 MH-9 / C 6 9 3 9 25 MH-10 / A 5 9 5 9 21 MH-10 / B 5 9 4 9 21 MH-10 / C 5 9 3 9 21 Definite number of units According to space dimensions, comfort requirements and costs, select the optimum solution from the remaining alternatives. Fresh air rate Calculate the minimum fresh air rate from the air flow rate of the selected units (see table G3-1) and the required minimum fresh air flow rate. Due to the space dimensions, comfort requirements and the investment made available the solution with 9 TopVent MH-6 / A is selected. Total air flow rate: 9 x 4600 m³ / h = 41400 m³ / h Minimum fresh air flow rate: 8300 m³ / h Minimum fresh air rate: 20 % G Automatic control Group units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, heat demand, operating times) into control zones. Check maximum switching power of the controller. Check if, in view of operating conditions, automatic control of the air distributor with the VarioTronic is worthwhile. The low-cost solution is 1 TempTronic controller for all 9 units: Switching power = 9 x 0.69 kw < 6.5 kw The maximum floor area reached depends on the one hand on local conditions and on the other hand on the quality of air distribution. Due to the complexity of air flow mechanisms in large rooms the design quantities can only partly be mathematically described. The quality of the air distributor affects the supplied energy made available in the occupied area as a function of the air flow rate, the temperature difference between supply air and room air and the mounting height. Tests on the test rig and the experience of numerous applications show that with the Air-Injector this conversion of energy is effected with considerably higher efficiency than with other air distributors usually employed in recirculation units. This higher quality leads to lower running costs as well as to a larger floor area reached and thus fewer units are needed. To facilitate the design process concerning the floor area reached we have decided to dispense with complicated formulas and diagrams. However, it is important to keep to the limiting values and to make sure that the primary and secondary air flow can spread unhindered. If the given limits are exceeded in your application please seek Hoval advice. 115

With these and the height adjustable suspension set (option) the unit is easily fixed to the ceiling. The captive nuts are only designed for the unit's own weight. Do not put on any additional loads! The captive nuts cannot sustain a bending moment; therefore do not use eyebolts! Installation by means of steel flat, slotted steel flat, angle or steel wire is also possible, but the following has to be considered: 7.2 Hydraulic installation Hydraulic installation to be carried out by experts only! Combine units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, heat gain, operating time, etc.) into one control zone. Low or medium pressure hot water up to 120 C can be used as a heating medium. To save energy, the distributor can be pre-calibrated; it should, however, be ensured that the heat requirement of each heater battery can always be met. Connect the individual heating coils as shown in figure G7 2. Depending on local conditions, it should also be considered whether compensations for flow and return pipework are needed to balance the longitudinal expansion and / or flexible connections for the units. The heat exchanger cannot take up any extra load, e.g. through the flow or return pipe. The individual units within a control zone must be hydraulically balanced to ensure even temperatures. Non-vertical suspensions are permissible up to a maximum angle of 45. The unit must be installed with its top face horizontal (level)! For connection to the fresh air duct it is advisable to install a flexible connector. max. 45 max. 45 Air vent Balancing valve Drain cocks Isolating valves Flow Return Fig. G7 1: Suspension of TopVent MH Fig. G7 2: Heating coil connection 116

TopVent MK Intended Use 1 Intended use 2 Construction and Function TopVent MK is used for ventilating, heating and cooling high spaces with variable fresh air supply. Correct usage also entails adherence to the manufacturer's conditions for installation, initial start-up, operation and maintenance (operating instructions) as well as consideration of possible malfunctions and of hazards. 1.1 User group TopVent units are only to be installed, operated and serviced by authorised and trained specialists who are familiar with and have been instructed on the hazards. The operating instructions are for English-speaking works engineers and technicians as well as specialists in building, heating and ventilation technology. 1.2 Modes of operation TopVent MK units have the following operating modes: Fresh air, mixed air or recirculation operation at low fan speed (0...100 % fresh air) Fresh air, mixed air or recirculation operation at high fan speed (0...100 % fresh air) Standby Off The application limits given in the 'Technical Data' section must be observed. Any utilisation beyond this is considered inappropriate. The manufacturer is not liable for any damages resulting therefrom. The TopVent MK is used for ventilating, heating and cooling in fresh air, mixed air or recirculation modes; it has been specially developed for application in high spaces. The unit is installed under the ceiling and connected to a fresh air duct. Depending on the damper position it takes in fresh air and / or room air, heats or cools it and injects it back into the room via the Air-Injector. Thanks to its powerful and efficient air distribution the TopVent MK covers a large area. Therefore, in comparison with other systems, fewer units are needed to achieve the required environment. Two unit sizes, 2-speed fans, different coil types and a wide variety of accessories provide a tailored solution for each application. 2.1 Unit construction The TopVent MK consists of the following components: Mixed air box (with fresh air / recirculation dampers) Filter box (with two bag filters class G4) Heating / cooling section (with fan, heat exchanger and built-in condensate separator) Automatically adjustable vortex air distributor Air-Injector To avoid condensation on the outer surface the heating / cooling section is insulated. The components are bolted together and can be dismantled even after installation. The units are not suitable for use in explosive atmospheres, in high humidity areas or in rooms with a high dust load. 1.3 Hazards Despite all of the preventive measures that have been taken, there are certain hazards, which may not be obvious, e.g.: Danger when working on the electrical system Items (e.g. tools) can drop down when work is being done on the TopVent unit Malfunctions due to defective parts Danger from hot water when working on the heating system Mixed air box Filter box Heating / cooling section Air-Injector Fig. H2 1: TopVent MK unit components 122

TopVent MK Function and Construction Casing: consisting of corrosion-resistant Aluzinc sheet steel Fan: axial fan with low energy consumption, quiet and maintenance-free Heat exchanger: LPHW / chilled water heater battery consisting of copper tubes with aluminium fins Frost stat: installed on the heat exchanger Condensate separator: with condensate drain connection Terminal box Air-Injector: patented, automatically adjustable vortex air distributor for draught-free air distribution over a large area Filter box: easily accessible behind sliding door, with two bag filters class G4 and differential pressure switch for filter supervision Mixed air box: with fresh air and recirculation dampers made from aluminium extrusions with plastic gear wheels Fresh air duct with flexible connector (not included in Hoval delivery) H Fig. H2 2: Construction of TopVent MK 2.2 Air distribution with the Air-Injector The patented air distributor called the Air-Injector is the core element. Its controllable vane arrangement allows continuous adjustment of the air discharge angle. The setting depends on the air flow rate ( fan speed), the mounting height and the temperature difference between supply air and room air. Thus the air is injected into the room either vertically downwards, conically or horizontally, ensuring that a large floor area is reached with each TopVent MK unit no draughts occur in the occupied area temperature stratification in the room is reduced and thus energy is saved. 123

TopVent MK Control Systems 5 Control systems For TopVent MK units, specially developed and optimised components for room temperature, air distribution and fresh air rate control are available from Hoval. For a detailed description of these components please refer to part L 'Control systems' of this handbook. 5.1 Integrated system DigiNet (detailed description on request) Ideally, TopVent MK units are controlled by DigiNet. This is an integrated system that has been specially developed for Hoval indoor climate systems. It controls room temperature as well as air distribution and constantly optimises the fresh air rate (i.e. just as much fresh air is taken in as necessary to maintain the room temperature without additional heating or cooling). Table H5 1: Integrated control system for TopVent MK 5.2 Air distribution control Automatic control with the VarioTronic The VarioTronic is an electronic controller for the Air-Injector. It adjusts air distribution for changing operating conditions (fan speed, temperature difference between supply air and room air) and works independently of room temperature control. Manual control by means of potentiometer and actuator Where operating conditions change rarely or comfort requirements are not so high, air distribution may be controlled manually by means of a potentiometer. Fixed adjustment Where the basic conditions remain unchanged (constant supply air temperature, constant air flow rate), air distribution can be manually fixed at commissioning. Table H5 2: Air distribution control systems for TopVent MK 132

TopVent MK System Design 6 System design Example Usually, the primary function of TopVent DKV units is cooling; for this reason the design process is described for this function. The design for heating can be made in a similar way to the example in part G 'TopVent MH'. Collect basic data Space dimensions (floor plan) Mounting height (= distance from floor to underside of the TopVent unit) Required cooling capacity Desired room conditions Cooling medium temperature (flow / return) Comfort requirements (acoustic) Fresh air temperature Minimum fresh air flow rate (The fresh air rate can be adjusted as desired between 0 % and 100 %; for an efficient use of energy the design calculation is to be based on a minimum value.) Space dimensions...40 m x 62 m Mounting height...6.5 m Required cooling capacity...140 kw Desired room conditions...26 C / 50 % Cooling medium temperature... 8 / 14 C Comfort requirements...standard Fresh air temperature...32 C Minimum fresh air flow rate...8500 m³ / h Comfort requirements (acoustic) According to acoustic requirements define the fan speed: Low sound level low fan speed (speed I) Normal sound level high fan speed (speed ) In this project the acoustic requirements are 'standard', hence use the high fan speed (speed ) for design calculations. H Mounting height With the minimum mounting height (table E3-8) check which units can be used. According to table H3-9 the minimum mounting heights are: MK-6... 4 m MK-9... 5 m Consequently, all sizes can be used in this project with a mounting height of 6.5 m. Minimum and maximum number of units For determining the minimum number of units three criteria must be fulfilled: a) Minimum number relating to floor area Table H3-1 indicates the maximum floor area that can be reached with TopVent MK units. With these values and the given floor area the minimum number of units can be determined for each unit size and coil type. b) Minimum number relating to space dimensions (length x width) Depending on space dimensions, a certain minimum number of units are required in the length and in the width. This can be calculated from the maximum distances between units and to the wall (see table H3-9). Calculate the minimum numbers according to a), b) and c) for each unit type and enter them in a table. Then take the highest value as minimum number of units d). Calculate the maximum possible number according to e) and enter the values in the table. 133

TopVent MK System Design c) Minimum number relating to cooling capacity The minimum number for each unit size and coil type can be calculated from the required total cooling capacity (table H3-5 and H3-6). Please note that only the sensible cooling capacity Q sen is available for cooling of the space while the total capacity Q tot must be used for sizing the chiller. Type a) b) c) d) e) MK-6 / C 8 12 12 12 24 MK-9 / C 4 6 7 7 14 MK-9 / D 4 6 5 6 14 d) Effective minimum number of units The highest value of the foregoing calculations a), b) and c) is the effective minimum number of units that should be installed. e) Maximum number of units The minimum number determined under d) normally corresponds to the solution selected in practice as it incurs the lowest costs. Yet if comfort requirements are particularly high more units may be provided. The maximum number of units is theoretically determined from the total floor area divided by the minimum floor area reached per unit X 2 (X = minimum distance between units, see table H3-9). Definite number of units According to space dimensions, comfort requirements and costs, select the optimum solution from the remaining alternatives. Due to the space dimensions, comfort requirements and the investment made available the solution with 6 TopVent MK is selected. Fresh air rate Calculate the minimum fresh air rate from the air flow rate of the selected units (see table H3-1) and the required minimum fresh air flow rate. Total air flow rate: 6 x 7100 m³ / h = 42600 m³ / h Minimum fresh air flow rate: 8500 m³ / h Minimum fresh air rate: 20 % Automatic control Group units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, cooling load, operating times) into control zones. Check maximum switching power of the controller. Check if, in view of operating conditions, automatic control of the air distributor with the VarioTronic is worthwhile. The low-cost solution is 2 TempTronic controllers: Switching power = 3 x 1.65 kw < 6.5 kw 3 x 1.65 kw < 6.5 kw The maximum floor area reached depends on the one hand on local conditions and on the other hand on the quality of air distribution. Due to the complexity of air flow mechanisms in large rooms the design quantities can only partly be mathematically described. The quality of the air distributor affects the supplied energy made available in the occupied area as a function of the air flow rate, the temperature difference between supply air and room air and the mounting height. Tests on the test rig and the experience of numerous applications show that with the Air-Injector this conversion of energy is effected with considerably higher efficiency than with other air distributors usually employed in recirculation units. This higher quality leads to lower running costs as well as to a larger floor area reached and thus fewer units are needed. To facilitate the design process concerning the floor area reached we have decided to dispense with complicated formulas and diagrams. However, it is important to keep to the limiting values and to make sure that the primary and secondary air flow can spread unhindered. If the given limits are exceeded in your application please seek Hoval advice. 134

TopVent MK Transport and Installation 7 Transport and installation Transport and installation to be carried out by experts only! A lifting appliance is required for transportation and installation of the units! Do not tilt or lay the unit on its side! 7.1 Installation For fastening to the ceiling, the unit is equipped with four M10 captive nuts with hexagon head screws and washers as standard. With these and the height adjustable suspension set (option) the unit is easily fixed to the ceiling. The captive nuts are only designed for the unit's own weight. Do not put on any additional loads! The captive nuts cannot sustain a bending moment; therefore do not use eyebolts! Installation by means of steel flat, slotted steel flat, angle or steel wire is also possible, but the following has to be considered: Non-vertical suspensions are permissible up to a maximum angle of 45. The unit must be installed with its top face horizontal (level)! For connection to the fresh air duct it is advisable to install a flexible connector. 7.2 Hydraulic installation Hydraulic installation to be carried out by experts only! Combine units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, heat gain, operating time, etc.) into one control zone. Low or medium pressure hot water up to 120 C can be used as a heating medium. To save energy, the distributor can be pre-calibrated; it should, however, be ensured that the heat requirement of each heater battery can always be met. Connect the individual heating / cooling coils as shown in figure G7 2. Depending on local conditions, it should also be considered whether compensations for flow and return pipework are needed to balance the longitudinal expansion and / or flexible connections for the units. The heat exchanger cannot take up any extra load, e.g. through the flow or return pipe. Adequately size the slope and cross section of the condensate drain to prevent a condensate backwash. Install a 200 mm trap. The individual units within a control zone must be hydraulically balanced to ensure even temperatures.

TopVent HV Control Systems 4 Options No optional components are available for TopVent HV. 5 Control systems For TopVent HV units, specially developed and optimised components for room temperature control are available from Hoval. For a detailed description of these components please refer to part L 'Control systems' of this handbook. TempTronic EasyTronic This is a programmable, electronic temperature controller allowing fully automatic operation. Its control algorithm with fuzzy logic ensures smallest room temperature deviations from setpoints and minimises energy consumption. This is a basic temperature controller without clock. The desired room temperature is manually adjusted and the fan speed selected with a switch. Table I5 1: Room temperature control systems for TopVent HV 146

TopVent HV System Design 6 System design Example Collect basic data Space dimensions (floor plan) Mounting height (= distance from floor to underside of the TopVent unit) Required heat output Desired room temperature Heating medium temperature (flow / return) Comfort requirements (acoustic) Space dimensions...10 m x 22 m Mounting height...4.5 m Required heat output...38 kw Desired room temperature...20 C Heating medium temperature... 60 / 40 C Comfort requirements...high Comfort requirements (acoustic) According to acoustic requirements define the fan speed: Low sound level low fan speed (speed I) Normal sound level high fan speed (speed ) In this project the acoustic requirements are 'high', hence use the low fan speed (speed I) for design calculations. Mounting height With the minimum mounting height (table I3-7) check which units can be used. Check maximum mounting height according to heating medium temperature and inlet air temperature (= room temperature) (table I3-4). Eliminate units that cannot be used. According to table I3-7 the minimum mounting heights are: HV-2, HV-3, H-5... 3 m Consequently, all sizes can be used in this project with a mounting height of 4.5 m. According to table I3-4 and the given conditions (heating medium temperature 60 / 40 C, inlet air temperature 20 C) the following unit types cannot be employed due to the maximum mounting height: HV-5... H max = 4.2 m I Minimum and maximum number of units For determining the minimum number of units three criteria must be fulfilled: a) Minimum number relating to floor area Table I3-1 indicates the maximum floor area that can be reached with TopVent HV units. With these values and the given floor area the minimum number of units can be determined for each unit size. b) Minimum number relating to space dimensions (length x width) Depending on space dimensions, a certain minimum number of units are required in the length and in the width. This can be calculated from the maximum distances between units and to the wall (see table I3-7). c) Minimum number relating to heat output The minimum number for each unit size can be calculated from the required total heat output (table I3-4). Calculate the minimum numbers according to a), b) and c) for each unit type and enter them in a table. Then take the highest value as minimum number of units d). Calculate the maximum possible number according to e) and enter the values in the table. 147

TopVent HV System Design d) Effective minimum number of units The highest value of the foregoing calculations a), b) and c) is the effective minimum number of units that should be installed. e) Maximum number of units The minimum number determined under d) normally corresponds to the solution selected in practice as it incurs the lowest costs. Yet if comfort requirements are particularly high more units may be provided. The maximum number of units is theoretically determined from the total floor area divided by the minimum floor area reached per unit X 2 (X = minimum distance between units, see table I3-7). Type a) b) c) d) e) HV-2 7 8 8 8 13 HV-3 5 6 5 6 8 HV-5 no solution Definite number of units According to space dimensions, comfort requirements and costs, select the optimum solution from the remaining alternatives. Due to the space dimensions, comfort requirements and the investment made available the solution with 8 TopVent HV-2 is selected. Automatic control Group units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, heat demand, operating times) into control zones. Check maximum switching power of the controller. The low-cost solution is 1 TempTronic controller for all 8 units: Switching power = 8 x 0.08 kw < 6.5 kw 148

TopVent HV Transport and Installation 7 Transport and installation Transport and installation to be carried out by experts only! A lifting appliance is required for transportation and installation of the units! Do not tilt or lay the unit on its side! 7.1 Installation For fastening to the ceiling, the unit is equipped with four M8 captive nuts with hexagon head screws and washers as standard. With these the unit is easily fixed to the ceiling by means of steel flat, angle or steel wire. The captive nuts are only designed for the unit's own weight. Do not put on any additional loads! The captive nuts cannot sustain a bending moment; therefore do not use eyebolts! 7.2 Hydraulic installation Hydraulic installation to be carried out by experts only! Combine units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, heat gain, operating time, etc.) into one control zone. Low or medium pressure hot water up to 120 C can be used as a heating medium. To save energy, the distributor can be pre-calibrated; it should, however, be ensured that the heat requirement of each heater battery can always be met. Connect the individual heating coils as shown in figure I7 2. Depending on local conditions, it should also be considered whether compensations for flow and return pipework are needed to balance the longitudinal expansion and / or flexible connections for the units. The heat exchanger cannot take up any extra load, e.g. through the flow or return pipe. The individual units within a control zone must be hydraulically balanced to ensure even temperatures. Non-vertical suspensions are permissible up to a maximum angle of 45. The unit must be installed with its top face horizontal (level)!

TopVent curtain Function and Construction 2 Function and construction The TopVent curtain is a recirculation unit heater with outlet nozzle; it is used as an air curtain for doors of up to 6 m height. Several TopVent curtain units are fitted above the door. The units take in room air, heat it by means of the heater battery and blow it downwards through the outlet nozzles. The air curtain so generated minimises external influences on the indoor climate. It prevents cold air from entering and increases the useful floor area in the space. The unit is available in three sizes, each with a two-speed fan as standard so that altogether six different heat outputs can be selected. The TopVent curtain consists of the heating section (with fan and heater battery) and the outlet nozzle.

It switches the unit on or off depending on the door contact switch and heat demand. Table J5 1: Controller for TopVent curtain J 159

TopVent curtain System Design 6 System design When designing indoor climate systems for large spaces special attention must be paid to external influences through open doors, since unprotected doors are the cause of considerable energy loss and discomfort. To avoid such problems, air curtains may be installed (cf. diagrams J6 1 and J6 2). In general, the function of air curtains is supported by a slight positive pressure in the room. This can be achieved by installing additional fresh air and / or mixed air units. 6.1 Calculation program For designing air curtain installations a calculation program can be supplied. It determines the required number of TopVent curtain units per door based on the following criteria: The required air flow rate is calculated from the door size, the difference in density between room air and outdoor air and the wind velocity. The spacing between TopVent curtain units must not exceed ¾ of the unit width. The point of intersection of the primary air flows must be in the upper half of the door. 6.2 Quick selection Table J6 1 may be used for quick selection.

If not, loosen the bolted connection between the nozzle and the heating section, turn the nozzle as required and secure in place. For fastening to the ceiling, the unit is equipped with four M8 captive nuts with hexagon head screws and washers as standard. With these and the use of steel flat or angle the unit is easily fixed above the door according to the plant layout (i.e. with the calculated spacings). The captive nuts are only designed for the unit's own weight. Do not put on any additional loads! 7.2 Hydraulic installation Hydraulic installation to be carried out by experts only! Combine units working under equal operating conditions (room temperature, heat gain, operating time, etc.) into one control zone (recommendation: pipework system according to Tichelmann). Low or medium pressure hot water up to 120 C can be used as a heating medium. To save energy, the distributor can be pre-calibrated; it should, however, be ensured that the heat requirement of each heater battery can always be met. Connect the individual heating coils as shown in figure J7 2. Depending on local conditions, it should also be considered whether compensations for flow and return pipework are needed to balance the longitudinal expansion and / or flexible connections for the units. The heat exchanger cannot take up any extra load, e.g. through the flow or return pipe. The individual units within a control zone must be hydraulically balanced to ensure even temperatures. The captive nuts cannot sustain a bending moment; therefore do not use eyebolts! The unit must be installed with its top face horizontal (level)!

There are two possibilities: 2.1 Standard paint finish The individual unit components can be painted in Hoval standard colours for free: Air-Injector, air outlet box orange (RAL 2008) Heating section, heating cooling section red (RAL 3000) Suspension set red (RAL 3000) Filter box, Flat filter box red (RAL 3000) Mixed air box red (RAL 3000) Recirculation silencer red (RAL 3000) Roof hood not painted 2.2 Special paint finish To match the room colour, all unit components can be painted in any desired colour (extra charge; indicate RAL number on the order). 3 Suspension set The suspension set secures the TopVent units to the ceiling. It comprises 4 pairs of Aluzinc steel U sections with holes for height adjustment up to 1300 mm (bolts and nuts included). An external on / off switch for the fan can be installed in the terminal box of the TopVent units. Only the fan is switched off with the isolation switch. Control components (such as the VarioTronic) can still be live! 5 Actuator 5.1 Actuator for Air-Injector For adjusting the Air-Injector by means of a non-hoval control system an actuator (type VT-A) can be supplied. This adapts the Air-Injector vanes in a range from 0 (= vertical air supply) to 50 (= horizontal air supply). The mechanical stops are to be adjusted correspondingly. To ensure the correct vane position even after switch-on, the actuator always performs the following starting cycle (duration about 3 min): Actual position 0 50 desired position 5.2 Actuator for mixed air box For adjusting the fresh air and recirculation dampers by means of a non-hoval control system an actuator (type MLK-A) can be supplied. This adjusts the dampers in a range from 0 (= 0 % fresh air) to 90 (= 100 % fresh air). To ensure the correct damper position even after switch-on, the actuator always performs the following starting cycle (duration about 3 min): Actual position 0 90 Desired position Fig. K3 1: Suspension set K Fig. K5 1: Actuator 167

TopVent Options 6 Filter box 36.5 22 8...20 139 58 6.1 Filter box For filtering recirculated air a filter box can be fitted (or retrofitted) on TopVent DHV and TopVent DKV units. This contains two bag filters class G4 (according to DIN EN 779). The modular construction made of Aluzinc sheet steel with two sliding doors allows easy filter exchange. Please note that in front of the sliding doors there must be sufficient space for exchanging the filters. 26.5 105.6 6.9 Due to the additional pressure drop, the performance data of the respective TopVent units decrease: Air flow rate (and mounting height) by approx. 13 % Heating and cooling capacities by approx. 8 % 5.2 81 Type VT-A MLK-A Nominal voltage AC 24 V, 50 Hz AC 24 V, 50 Hz Control signal Y DC 0..10 V DC 0..10 V Operating range DC 2..10 V DC 2..10 V Torque 8 Nm 8 Nm Running time 150 s 150 s 6.2 Filter pressure switch For automatic filter supervision a filter pressure switch can be installed.

TopVent Options 7 Flat filter box 9 Recirculation silencer 7.1 Flat filter box For filtering recirculated air the TopVent commercial UM can be equipped with a flat filter box (retrofitting possible). This contains four V-cell filters class G4. Due to the additional pressure drop, the performance data of the TopVent units decrease: Air flow rate (and mounting height) by approx. 9 % Heating and cooling capacities by approx. 8 % 7.2 Filter pressure switch For automatic filter supervision a filter pressure switch can be installed. This indicates when the filters must be cleaned or exchanged. Factory setting 180 Pa Switching contacts for 24 V DC, 20 ma The use of a recirculation silencer for lowering the noise level is recommended mainly where TopVent units are installed below smooth, hard ceilings (e.g. concrete or steel sheet ceilings). The recirculation silencer is fitted on top of the unit to reduce noise reflection from the ceiling. The insertion attenuation compared with the total sound power level of the respective TopVent unit in standard design is 3 db(a). As normally, use the 4 suspension points provided in the heating or heating / cooling section for fastening the unit (e.g. using the optional suspension set). Do not suspend the unit by the silencer! The silencer cannot take up the weight of the TopVent unit!

This differs from the standard design as follows: The sound attenuation cowl is replaced by a cowl with bigger volume. An additional faceplate with sound-insulation lining is installed. The outside dimensions of the Air-Injector remain the same. The insertion attenuation compared with the total sound power level of the respective TopVent unit in standard design is 4 db(a).

TopVent Options 10 Air outlet box 11 Insulation For using TopVent units in low height rooms an air outlet box can be installed in place of the Air-Injector, reducing the minimum mounting height by 1 m compared with the standard design. The air outlet box has horizontal grilles on all four sides. These can be manually adjusted (without tools) for adapting the air discharge angle to local conditions. The air outlet box replaces the Air-Injector. Consequently, the total unit height is reduced; the weight remains approximately the same. The insulation prevents condensation from humid room air forming on the cold outer walls of TopVent units, which may occur in cooling operation or when fresh air passes through the unit. In addition, the sound level is lowered a little. Insulation is available for the following components: Air-Injector Mixed air box Filter box The heating / cooling section in the TopVent units is insulated as standard. Polyethylene insulating material Thermal conductivity 0.04 W / mk Closed pore Insensitive to pressure Non-abrasive Flame resistant (B1) Temperature range -45...100 C Table K11 1: Technical data of insulation Fig. K10 1: TopVent DHV with air outlet box Heating section or heating / cooling section The outside dimensions of TopVent units are the same with or without insulation. The increase in pressure drop due to the reduced cross-sectional area is insignificant. Insulation is necessary if the outside surface temperature is lower than the dew point temperature of room air. When determining the dew point temperature of room air, take into consideration that the humidity at the height of the TopVent unit is normally higher than the humidity in the occupied area. The surface temperature can be approximated as follows: t Sf = t R 0.75 (t R t S ) t Sfi = t R 0.25 (t R t S ) t Sf... Surface temperature t Sfi... Surface temperature with insulation t R...

TopVent Options 12 Condensate pump 13 Hydraulic assembly For TopVent cooling units a condensate drain must be installed. For applications where connection to the waste water system is too costly or impossible due to building structures a condensate pump can be supplied. This pump is fitted at the side of the unit, directly below the condensate connection. It pumps the condensate through a plastic tube up to a delivery height of 3 m and thus allows for condensate drainage through waste water pipes under the ceiling, onto the roof. For TopVent commercial units prefabricated hydraulic assemblies are available (diverting system). There are two different designs, distinguished only by the mixing valve: Hydraulic assembly for fresh air HG8D-AU (fast solenoid actuator) Hydraulic assembly for recirculation HG8D-UM (actuator with 75 second actuation time) The assembly is not insulated. The proper function can only be ensured if installed horizontally. Hydraulic balancing Pre-set the balancing valves according to the required pressure drop in the distribution circuit. The values can be easily read from diagram K13 1. The curves 1.0 to 4.0 represent the turns of the valve spindle; they are shown on the rotary knob: 0.0 Valve closed 4.0 Valve fully opened The indicated pressure drops include the coil and the hydraulic assembly. Consider pressure drops in the distribution system only up to the screw joints (Pos. 7).

TopVent Control Systems 2 TempTronic The TempTronic is an electronic controller for TopVent recirculation and supply air units. Construction The TempTronic consists of: the control module (with micro-controller for room temperature control, clock, setting potentiometers and terminal strips) and the room air sensor; this must be installed at a position typical of the occupied area and connected to the control module. It is available in different designs: Type Use Design SH Heating Wall unit SHK Heating and cooling Wall unit SH-S Heating For control panel SHK-S Heating and cooling For control panel Table L2 1: TempTronic types In wall unit design, the TempTronic control module is installed in a plastic casing with transparent lid. It can be protected from unauthorised access with a cylinder lock (option). In the design for control panel, the control module is installed in the front cover or door of a control panel. The transformer required for power supply and the contactors needed for speed switching are part of the control panel. 2-point control with fuzzy logic The TempTronic controls the TopVent units in relation to heat demand. To save energy, a 2-point controller (on / off) is used. Due to the integrated feedback, however, switching the different speeds on and off depends on other criteria than with conventional 2-point controllers, reducing deviations. Two set values Two desired values for room temperature can be set. Switching between the two values is by means of the clock. Room set value ( C) While this value is effective the units are switched on and off always at the required speed. Reduction / increase ( t) The adjusted value lowers the room set value in heating mode and raises it in cooling mode. When in operating mode 'Auto.' and this value is effective, the TopVent units run at high speed only, keeping heating / cooling times to a minimum and thus saving energy. Frost protection The control algorithm also contains an automatic frost protection switch: As soon as the room temperature falls below 5 C the units switch on (running at high speed in the operating modes 'Auto.' and 'Off' and at low speed in operating mode 'Auto. I'). On reaching a room temperature of 7 C the units switch off again. With the selector switch for heating / cooling operation in position 'Cooling' the frost protection switch is not effective! Faults If a fan motor is switched off by the thermal relay both speed indication lamps show red. All units in the group are switched off. To restart after clearing the cause of the fault, turn the selector switch to and then to the desired operating mode. A power failure is not indicated, however, when power is again available the TempTronic automatically switches back to the previous operating mode. L Fig. L2 1: TempTronic wall unit 179

Reduction / increase of the room set value ( t) Setting of the temperature change in degrees (e.g. during the night or weekend).

TopVent Control Systems 3 EasyTronic The EasyTronic is a switching device with simple temperature control for TopVent DHV, NHV and HV units. Construction The EasyTronic consists of: the control box (with selector switch for operating modes) installed in a plastic casing with transparent lid for wallmounting, the room thermostat; this must be installed in the occupied area and connected to the control box. Temperature control The EasyTronic switches the TopVent units depending on heat demand. The operating mode is manually selected at the control box: 0 The TopVent units are off. 1 On / off operation of the TopVent units with speed 1 (= low speed) 2 On / off operation of the TopVent units with speed 2 (= high speed) The desired temperature is selected at the room thermostat with a rotary knob. As soon as the room temperature falls below the set value the TopVent units switch on at the selected speed. On reaching the set value the units switch off again. The EasyTronic does not produce a signal for switching a heating pump or heat generator. Frost protection The EasyTronic can be switched to frost protection manually: Turn the selector switch to operating mode '1' or '2' and adjust the reduced temperature (e.g. 5 C) at the room thermostat. Faults When a fan motor is switched off by the thermal relay the EasyTronic switches off. To restart after the motor has cooled down, turn the selector switch to '0' and then to the desired operating mode again (or disconnect power supply for a short time).

TopVent Control Systems 4 CurTronic The CurTronic is an electronic controller for TopVent curtain units. Construction The CurTronic consists of: the control module (with micro-controller for room temperature control, clock, setting potentiometers and terminal strips); this must be connected to the door contact switch by the installer. and the room air sensor; this must be installed near the door and connected to the control module. It is available in two designs: Type CT CT-S Design CurTronic wall unit CurTronic for control panel Table L4 1: Types of CurTronic In wall unit design, the CurTronic control module is installed in a plastic casing with transparent lid. It can be protected from unauthorised access with a cylinder lock (option). In the design for control panel, the control module is installed in the front cover or door of a control panel. Hence the transformer required for power supply and the contactors needed for speed switching are part of the control panel. 2-point control with fuzzy logic The CurTronic controls the TopVent curtain units in relation to heat demand. To save energy, a 2-point controller (on / off) is used. Due to the integrated feedback, however, switching the different speeds on and off depends on other criteria than with conventional 2-point controllers, reducing deviations. Two set values Two desired values for room temperature can be set. Switching between the two values is by means of the clock. Room set value ( C) While this value is effective the units are switched on and off always at the required speed. Reduction ( t) The adjusted value lowers the room set value. When in operating mode 'Auto.' and this value applies, the TopVent units run at high speed only, keeping heating times to a minimum and thus saving energy. Door operation The CurTronic switches the TopVent curtain units depending on the door contact switch: As soon as the door opens the door contact switch closes and the units switch on (at high speed). When the door is shut the units switch on after the adjustable fan overrun. Frost protection The control algorithm also contains an automatic frost protection switch: As soon as the room temperature falls below 5 C the units switch on (at high speed). On reaching a room temperature of 7 C the units switch off again. Faults If a fan motor is switched off by the thermal relay both speed indication lamps show red. All units in the group are switched off. To restart after clearing the cause of the fault, turn the selector switch to and then to the desired operating mode. A power failure is not indicated, however, when power is again available the CurTronic automatically switches back to the previous operating mode. Fig. L4 1: CurTronic wall unit 186

TopVent Control Systems 5 Air distribution control The Air-Injector introduces supply air at various temperatures and flow rates into the occupied area of high spaces, without causing draughts. This is achieved by means of a controllable vane arrangement allowing continuous adjustment of the air discharge angle between vertical and horizontal. 5.1 Air distribution with the Air-Injector Supply air enters the vane arrangement from above. The air discharge direction changes with the vane angle as follows: With the vanes in radial position (vane angle = 0 ) the air passes through the air distributor without being influenced, that is without twist. It is injected into the space vertically downwards. If the vanes are at an angle the air jet opens up. The air spreads out and the throw is thus reduced. With the vanes in the extreme position (vane angle = 50 ) this effect is so strong that the supply air flow passes along the underside of the air outlet (Coanda effect) and thus is supplied into the space horizontally. Fig. L5 1: Vane angle The vane angle depends on: the mounting height the air flow rate (With a lower air flow rate also the air velocity and thus the throw decrease. To compensate for this, the twist must be reduced.) the temperature difference between supply air and room air ( heating / cooling, see figure L5-2) Adjustment of the Air-Injector can be done automatically (with the electronic controller VarioTronic) or manually (by means of a potentiometer and actuator). In certain cases air distribution can be permanently set during commissioning. Isothermal. In isothermal operation the room and supply air temperatures are the same. The necessary twist depends only on the mounting height and on the air flow rate (and thus on the fan speed). Heating. Supply air is warmer than room air and thus lighter; it rises in the space. Therefore, the greater the positive temperature difference between supply air and room air, the more the twist must be reduced to ensure that the supply air reaches the occupied area. Cooling. Supply air is colder than room air and due to its higher density sinks to the occupied area. Because this can easily cause draughts, the air must be blown into the space more horizontally in cooling operation. L Fig. L5 2: Varying operating conditions of the Air-Injector 191

TopVent Control Systems 5.2 Automatic air distribution control with the VarioTronic The VarioTronic is an electronic controller for the Air-Injector. It adjusts the air discharge angle to changing operating conditions and works independently of room temperature control. Construction The VarioTronic consists of the following components: VarioTronic control module Two designs are available: VarioTronic wall unit (VT-W): The control module incl. the transformer is installed in a plastic casing with transparent lid. It can be protected from unauthorised access with a cylinder lock (option). VarioTronic for control panel (VT-S): The control module is installed in a compact block with relay plug for installation on a relay base. Fig. L5 3: VarioTronic wall unit Drive unit Actuator for Air-Injector The configuration of the drive unit differs depending on use (see table L5-3). The actuator adjusts the Air-Injector vanes in a range from 0 (= vertical air supply) to 50 (= horizontal air supply). To ensure the correct vane position even after switch-on, the actuator always performs the following starting cycle (duration about 3 min): Actual position 0 50 Desired position 8...20 36.5 22 58 Supply air sensor The supply air sensor is installed in the Air-Injector. Its position between the vanes ensures that the correct supply air temperature is sensed in all operating modes. 139 26.5 105.6 6.9 Room air sensor The room air sensor is installed in a terminal box in the Air-Injector. For most applications this is an adequate position to ensure the correct function and its response time to room temperature variations is sufficient. With big temperature differences between working level and mounting height a separate room air sensor may be an advantage (option). This can be installed at a suitable position in the occupied area.

Switching between stage I and is effected by an external command (e.g. with the TempTronic). The current operating stage is indicated with the corresponding lamp. Axial air supply In addition, the position 'Axial air supply' (vane angle = 0 ) can be switched externally. Air supply is vertically downwards, which can be useful e.g. for pre-heating or for night cooling during summer. This operating mode is indicated with the lamp 'Ext.' plus the lamp of the stage that would be set without external command. Summer shifting A special feature of the algorithm is the possibility to reduce the vane angle at high room temperature according to the correction diagram (see diagram L5-1). This is intended for cooling mode, where at high room temperatures in the occupied area higher air velocities are often desired and, with internal heat loads (e.g. machines), also upcurrents 20 C 30 C 40 C Diagram L5 1: Correction diagram counteract the supply air jet. For example, an excess temperature of 7.5 K would result in a reduction of the vane angle by 10. Excess temperature is measured from the intervention point E, which can be set between 20 C and 40 C with the 'E' potentiometer. The shifting is valid for both stages of the VarioTronic. Installation Power supply and connection of the TopVent units must be carried out according to the wiring diagram and all applicable regulations. Installation only requires a connection between the VarioTronic control module and the plug in the Air-Injector. If a separate room air sensor is used (option), connect it to the plug instead of the built-in sensor. Commissioning Commissioning is to be carried out by experts only! Setting the automatic air distributor control is easy and quick with the adjustment diagram (diagram L5-2). Proceed as follows: Balance temperature sensors Under isothermal conditions (i.e. temperature of the supply air sensor = temperature of the room air sensor) adjust the potentiometer 'Just' until the green ISO lamp lights up. (Isothermal conditions appear e.g. about 5 minutes after switching off the unit.) Switch off summer shifting Set the 'E' potentiometer to its maximum position (40 C) to prevent false adjustment by the summer shifting. L 193

TopVent Control Systems Set potentiometers With the air flow rate, type size and mounting height read the correct values for your application from the adjustment diagram (diagram L5-2). Set the A, R and ISO potentiometers (in this order) to the correct values. This is necessary for both stages: Left Fan speed I / low air flow rate Right Fan speed / standard air flow rate Set summer shifting Set the intervention point for shifting the control curve between 20 C and 40 C room temperature, as desired. (If this function is not desired, just set the intervention point to a very high value, e.g. 40 C room temperature.) Operation After commissioning the adjustment of the VarioTronic is theoretically correct. It works fully automatically, depending on temperatures and external switching commands. In practice, however, the flow characteristics may be affected e.g. by machinery, thermal influences, etc. Corrections of the adjustment (see table L5-6) must be made under corresponding operating conditions. If, in spite of these corrections, air distribution is still unsatisfactory, please seek Hoval advice.

Two designs are available: Potentiometer wall unit (PMS-W) Potentiometer for control panel (PMS-S) The actuator adjusts the Air-Injector vanes in a range from 0 (= vertical air supply) to 50 (= horizontal air supply).

TopVent Control Systems 7 Basic control Basic control is a low-cost control system for TopVent MH. It meets all requirements of modern recirculation heating, however, automatic control of the fresh air rate is not available. Basic control is recommended if the units are used mainly for recirculation heating in winter, mainly for fresh air supply (100 % fresh air) during working hours in summer. 7.1 Construction Basic control comprises the following components: TempTronic SHK Potentiometer PMS-W Transformer TA (for connecting two or more TopVent MH to one control unit) The individual components are described in detail in the respective sections of this handbook. Their combination allows for the following additional functions: When the fan is off, the mixed air damper is in position 'Recirculation'. In case of frost hazard, the fan switches off and the mixed air damper goes in position 'Recirculation'. Switching of the heating pump is not possible. Due to the changing operating conditions use of the VarioTronic is recommended. Recirculation heating in winter (automatic) Programme the TempTronic as described in the 'TempTronic' section. Set the potentiometer to 0 % fresh air. Partial fresh air operation in winter is possible, however, due to on / off operation and the different fan speeds the fresh air rate is not constant. In addition, if the adjusted fresh air rate is very high draughts or frost hazard may occur. Fresh air operation in summer (automatic) Set the desired fresh air rate with the potentiometer (normally 100 %). Set the TempTronic selector switch for heating / cooling operation to cooling position. Set the operating mode selector switch to 'Auto.' or 'Auto. I'. Adjust the room set value low enough to ensure that it is always lower than the actual room temperature during working hours. This ensures that the units switch on and draw in fresh air when the clock is ON (room set value). Set the increase of the desired room temperature to 12 K, avoiding the units switching on during the night. Fresh air operation in summer (manual) Set the desired fresh air rate with the potentiometer (normally 100 %). Manually switch fresh air operation with the selector switch for operating modes: I (Y) Fresh air operation at low fan speed (low fresh air rate) ( ) Fresh air operation at high fan speed (high fresh air rate) The TopVent units are off.

TopVent Operation 1 Operation 2 Servicing 1.1 Commissioning Commissioning is to be carried out by experts only! An unauthorised start-up can cause damage. Visually check the units for any damage. Check that wiring diagrams have been followed. Set room temperature controller as described in the user manual. Visually check if the fans rotate in the correct direction at both speeds. An arrow on the nozzle shows the correct direction. Rectify possible wiring errors. Measure current consumption and compare with the information on the nameplate. Check function of units and controls by varying set values and operating times. Adjust the Air-Injector (if installed) according to the mounting height and air flow rate (see part L5 'Air distribution control'). Check room air sensor: Is the sensor installed at a typical position? Is the reading affected by local heat gains, solar gains, etc.? 1.2 Operation Unit control can only be undertaken by authorised individuals! Please refer to the user manual of the installed control system. In general, the plant works fully automatically depending on operating times and temperature conditions. The correct function should be checked periodically. Changes in working times must be corrected accordingly in the controller. Free air passage must be ensured; the air jet must be free to spread out unhindered. Any localisation of heat must be avoided. 1.3 Placing out of operation Turn main switch and isolation switch (option) to Off. If frost hazard exists, drain down the installation or protect it with antifreeze. Inspection and cleaning work to be carried out by experts only! Observe accident prevention regulations! Before undertaking servicing work, turn the main switch and the isolation switch (option) to Off and secure! Wait for the fan to stop! Every 2 4 months Inspect air filters (if installed), clean or exchange. Yearly before start of the heating period Check function of the fan. Visual inspection of the unit. Check function of the Air- Injector and whether fan impellers are dirty. If so, clean. Check control system. Every 2 years Visual inspection of the coil and, if necessary, clean. 3 Maintenance Maintenance work to be carried out by trained experts only. This requires special knowledge not contained in this manual. Spare parts must comply with manufacturer's requirements. Use Hoval original spare parts only! If required, please contact our service offices. 4 Disposal When disposing of components of TopVent units, please note the following: Metal parts should be sent for recycling. Plastic parts should be sent for recycling. Electrical and electronic parts should be sent to special refuse sites. M 207
