MAINTENANCE & SERVICE
Ventilation Unit RT 250/400S-EC-RS
Cleaning
Keep the unit clean for maximum performance and
long service life. The filters should be changed at
least once a year or more frequently if necessary.
The fans and heat exchangers must be cleaned
according to the instructions below.
Changing filters
The Temovex unit has two filters, exhaust air filter
and outdoor air filter (fresh air).
The filters should not be washed but replaced with
new ones.
New filters can be ordered from REC Indovent AB at
www.rec-indovent.se or phone 031-675500.
The unit must not be operated without the
intended original filters. Operation without filters
seriously affects the performance of the unit and
can damage the unit's fans and
heat exchangers.
·
Switch of the power.
·
Open the unit's door.
·
Remove the long Cover plate.
·
Take hold of the filter or of the
clamp between the bags.
Push the front part backwards,
downwards.
·
The supply air filter is behind
the inner cover plate, behind the exhaust filter.
Remove the filter.
·
Clean accessible surfaces if necessary.
·
Fit the new filters in reverse order (the blue,
exhaust air filter, is fitted in the front).
·
Refit the cover plate.
·
Close the door.
·
Turn on the power.
The unit operates even if the filters are dirty, but the
performance would be less good, energy
consumption increases and heat recovery
decreases.
Reset filter alarm: See Chapter 5.
Cleaning the fans
·
Switch of the power.
·
Open the unit's door.
·
Remove both covers.
·
Disconnect the fan's electric
plug and pull out the fan.
(Clean one fan at a time).
·
Clean the impeller using a brush or
compressed air.
·
Refit the fans in reverse order.
·
Refit the covers.
·
Close the door.
·
Turn on the power.
NOTE! The fans must
under no circumstances be
cleaned under running
water!
Cleaning the heat exchanger
·
Switch of the power.
·
Open the unit's door.
·
Remove both fans (see above).
·
Open the inspection door by the
bottom of the unit.
·
Remove the red plug at the
bottom of the unit, the condensate
drain.
·
Flush the heat exchanger with hot
water
.
NOTE! If the unit is fitted with a condensate
evaporator unit (KAVK), a wet vac should be
used to deal with the rinse water.
A degreasing agent may be required if the heat
exchanger is very dirty.
NOTE! The agent must be of a type which is
not aggressive to aluminium. Alkaline
detergents with caustic ammonia and alike
must never be used, since they have a
corrosive action on aluminium, i.e. ruin the heat
exchanger.
·
Refit the red plug (On the same side of the unit
as the filters).
·
Refit the inspection door.
·
Refit the fans in reverse order.
NOTE! Make sure the fan motors are not/do
not get wet when restarting the unit. If wet, this
could be fatal!

Turn on the power using the main switch.
Checking the condensate drain
·
Open the unit's door.
·
Open the access door at the bottom of the

Make sure the drain is not
blocked. This can be done
by pouring some water into
the bottom of the unit.
NOTE! On the side which does not have a red
plug.
·
If the drain is jammed, try to remove the
obstruction. If need be, call a plumber.
·
Refit the access door.
