Product Description
Sentinel Kinetic 200Z, 200ZH, 300ZH
The Vent-Axia Sentinel Kinetic 200Z, 200ZH, 300ZH Mechanical Ventilation / Heat Recovery (MVHR) is a
heat recovery unit designed for the energy efficient ventilation of houses and similar dwellings, conforming to
the latest requirements of the Building Regulations document F 2010.
The unit is designed for continuous 24 hour exhaust ventilation of stale moist air from bathrooms, toilets and
kitchens. As the stale air is extracted a heat exchanger within the unit transfers the heat into the supply air
entering the bedrooms and lounge.
Sentinel Kinetic 200Z, 200ZH, 300ZH Summer By Pass.
The Sentinel Kinetic units are fitted with a Summer By Pass (SBP) and will provide energy-free heating and
energy-free cooling when the house temperature and ambient temperature allows.
If the room is warmer than the set (shown as "indoor") temperature (i.e. you need the room to be cooler) and the
outdoor air is cooler than the actual room temperature (i.e. the outdoor air could cool your room) then the SBP will
open and the unit will supply cooler air to your room.
If the room is cooler than the set ("indoor") temperature (i.e. you need the room heating) and the outdoor air is
warmer than the actual room temperature (i.e the outdoor air could heat your room) then the SBP will open and
the unit will supply warmer air to your room.
Note that the above only applies whilst the outdoor air temperature is above 14C (adjustable) in order to prevent
cold draughts.
The set ("indoor") temperature should be set 2 or 3 degrees higher than the central heating thermostat and 2 or 3
degrees below any air conditioning thermostat if fitted. This will prevent any clash between the separate systems
