OVERVIEW

There are two different airflow options for the HE1.5XIN. They are:

u

  HE1.5XINH

u

  HE1.5XINV

The airflow configuration is indicated by digit 9 of the Configuration Code. 

2.0 COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONS

2.1 CABINET

The cabinet for the HE1.5XIN is made of 20 gauge galvanized steel and has 1" thick high-
density, foil-backed insulation on the inside. Units are available in either single-wall or double-
wall construction. Doors are hinged and are fitted with stainless steel machine screws through 
the faces to prevent accidental opening of the doors when the unit is in operation. Doors may be 
completely removed by removing the hinge pins. All units are equipped with adjustable-height 
leveling legs for purposes of leveling the unit. Duct flanges are provided at all four airstream 
openings for connection of field-supplied ductwork. 

2.2 ENTHALPIC CORES

All HE1.5XIN ERVs use a static-plate enthalpic core. The enthalpic cores transfer both latent and 
sensible energies between the airstreams. Gasketing is pre-installed on the cores and must be 
positioned to provide a proper air seal. For information on annual maintenance of the cores, see 
Section 7.0 Maintenance in this manual.

2.3 FAN/MOTOR ASSEMBLIES

2.4 E-BOX

Every HE1.5XIN is equipped with what is known as an “E-Box.” High-voltage supply wiring and 
low-voltage control wiring is all terminated here. If optional integrated programmable controls 
are installed, an additional 24 VAC transformer is installed here to power both the controller and 
its dedicated sensors.

There are two fan and motor assemblies in each ERV. 

Low airflow can cause 
fouling of the enthalpic 
cores. The ERV must 
never be operated without 
clean filters in place and 
minimum airflow must be 
greater than 250 CFM per 
full-sized core.
