OVERVIEW
NOTE: This unit is
an Energy Recovery
Ventilator. It is
commonly referred to
throughout this manual as
an “ERV”.
NOTE: There is also
a rooftop version of
this ERV, known as
the LE10XRT. It has a
separate manual.

1.2 FACTORY ASSEMBLY OF MODULES
The LE10XIN ERV is a total enthalpy energy recovery ventilator. It recovers both sensible and latent
energy from a building Exhaust Airstream and transfers that energy into a fresh Outdoor Air stream,
which it then introduces into the building Supply Air. The result is a constant supply of fresh outdoor
air in the Occupied Space with very little energy loss, enhancing Indoor Air Quality (IAQ). Each ERV has
enthalpic cores through which both the EA and SA airstreams pass and each air stream has its own
fan motor/blower. Each ERV has a high voltage control panel and a separate low voltage terminal strip
for connection to user-specified control devices.
Fan speed can be adjusted either by means of adjustable sheaves on the fan motors, by means of
an optional VFD or a combination of microprocessor controls and a VFD. Several control options are
offered for the unit.
See Section 2.7 Optional Control Accessories.
The LE10XIN is offered in two different models, the LE10XINH and the LE10XINV. The LE10XINH and
the LE10XINV are both for indoor installations and differ from each other in the location of the air
stream ducting. Each of the indoor models has an optional alternate duct connection.
See below.
The LE10XINH features Outside Air (OA) and Room Air (RA) on one side of the unit and Exhaust Air (EA)
and Fresh Air (FA) on the other side. The standard duct configuration and the optional alternate duct
configurations are shown below.
The LE10XIN ERV is built as two modules that are to be assembled in the field. The customer may
optionally order the modules to be assembled into one unit in the factory.
See Digit 23 of the Config-
uration Code.

LE10XINH Standard Duct Configuration
LE10XINH Alternate Duct Configuration
Room Air (RA) enters lower right side of unit.
Exhaust Air (EA) exits upper left side of unit.
Outside Air (OA) enters upper right side of
unit. Fresh Air (FA) exits lower left side of unit.
Room Air (RA) enters upper right side of unit.
Exhaust Air (EA) exits lower left side of unit.
Outside Air (OA) enters upper left side of unit.
Fresh Air (FA) exits lower right side of unit.
The LE10XINH is always supplied from the factory in the Standard Configuration,
as shown above. If the optional Alternate Duct Configuration is desired, specify
FA and EA dampers and motor horsepower for the “opposite” airstreams. Keep
this reversal in mind when making control connections. Also note that the addition
of certain options to the unit may not permit selection of the alternate duct connections.
