E. 

Control System with 2 Non-powered Relay Contacts: Use 

this schematic if the external control system provides no 

voltage or current at its output contacts. Install jumper 

(provided) between terminals 2 & 3. Connect one side of 

each of the output contacts to Terminal 1. Connect the 

other side of the output contact to control the FA Blower 

to Terminal 4, and the output contacts to control the EA 

Blower to Terminal 5.

Control Wiring Schematics

NOTE: The simplified schematics below show only the relevant

portions of the low-voltage control circuit in the ERV unit and

representational external control approaches. See the 

complete unit schematics elsewhere in this manual.

C. 

Control Sending 24VAC “On” Signal (from an external 

power source) to ERV: Make sure jumper is NOT installed 

between Terminals 2 & 3. Now you safely can apply 24VAC 

to the Terminals 3 & 4 to operate the ERV’s Isolation Relay 

for OA/FA Blower. Install jumper (provided) between 

terminals 4 & 5 to operate the ERV’s Isolation Relay for 

the RA/EA Blower.  

D. 

Control operating on Unit’s 24VAC Power Supply: 24VAC 

power is available at the Terminals 1 & 2. CAUTION: 

external control system should not draw more than 8VA. 

Install jumper (provided) between terminals 2 & 3.

 

Connect the switched output of the Control to Terminal 

4 to operate the ERV’s Isolation Relay for OA/FA Blower. 

Install jumper (provided) between terminals 4 & 5 to 

operate the ERV’s Isolation Relay for the RA/EA Blower.  

F. 

Control System Sending two 24VAC “On” Signals from 

an external power source: Make sure the jumper is NOT 

installed between Terminals 2 & 3. Now you safely can 

apply one of the 24VAC signals to Terminals 3 & 4 to operate 

the ERV’s isolation relay for the Fresh Air Blower. Apply 

the second 24VAC signal to Terminals 3 & 5 to operate the 

ERV’s isolation relay for the Exhaust Blower (make sure the 

polarity of each wire connected to Terminal 3 is the same).

Make sure the control provides no voltage or current at its 

output terminals.

Supply only 24VAC (not VDC) from a Class II Power Source.

A. 

Single 2-wire Control, unpowered: Use schematic below 

if the control requires no power from the unit to operate 

and acts like a simple on/off switch. The control must not 

supply any power to the ERV unit. Install jumper (provided) 

between terminals 2 & 3. Connect the control’s contacts to 

terminals 1 & 4 to operate the ERV’s Isolation Relay for OA/

FA Blower. Install jumper (provided) between terminals 4 & 

5 to operate the ERV’s Isolation Relay for the RA/EA Blower.  

Supply only 24VAC (not VDC) from a Class II Power Source.

G.  Control System Operating Isolation Dampers with End 

Switches: Use Isolation Dampers with electrically separate 

end switches. The end switches are used to separately 

control the ERV unit’s Isolation Relays. This ensures that 

each damper is open before the respective blower starts up.

 

NOTE: Because the ERV’s Motor Starters will only be 

operating once the Dampers are open, the power draw 

of the Damper Actuators is allowed to be as much as 35VA 

while opening (including power draw of the external 

control system, if any). However, the power draw of the 

fully-opened (stalled) Actuators (and external control 

system if any) must be less than 8VA. (Most damper 

actuators have much lower power draws.)

B. 

Single 2-wire Control on separate Power Supply, no power 

present at Control Output: Wire as shown for the Single 

2-wire control (A. above).
