Section 4 – Installation

 

The smoke detector is installed inside the Extract-air duct at the ventilation unit. Alternatively, an external fire 
alarm system can be connected. 

NOTE! 

If an external smoke detector is not used then a link wire must be fitted across the “Smoke 
Detector” terminals on the External Sensors PCB.  (See section 4.5.1 Installation of the smoke 
detector bypass Link Wire). 

4.5.9 Installation of the External duct heaters.  (Only applicable to Natural Air 180 PH model) 

The preheater is for frost control, and the external post heater can be connected to the unit to ensure the 
supply air temperature is acceptable. 

The preheater is fitted into the Fresh air duct and must be adequately thermally insulated.

The post heat (Boost) is fitted into the Supply air duct and includes its own temperature sensor. 

The airflow direction is indicated by arrows on the duct heater unit. 

Both units are powered directly from the ventilation unit.

Connect the 230V 50hz supply (from the ventilation unit) to the terminal block inside the heater
enclosure.

A post heat (boost) duct heater also requires a wired connection for the internal thermistor.

2   Power supply to External Boost heater unit.  
3   Inlet glands for external sensors (NTC thermistor for Boost heater unit). 

 (Remove a grommet and make a suitable hole through the exposed EPP insulation to the wiring chamber)

Section 5 – Set up

 

5  Set up  

After completing the installation, system setup must be carried out by a qualified technician in order to check 
the correct functionality. 

5.1 Requirements for the building  

Set up must only be carried out when the building and rooms are ready for occupation. 
Ensure that the rooms are free of dust, eg. construction material. 

NOTE! 

For setting up, the unit and all air inlets and outlets must be freely accessible. 

5.2 Requirements for the ventilation system  

For set up, the installation of all components of the ventilation system must be completed:  

5.3 Requirements for the technician 

For setup of the ventilation system, the qualified and trained technician will need the following measuring 
equipment:  

Multimeter

Temperature measuring instrument

Vane anemometer with measuring funnel

Differential pressure gauge 

NOTE! 

Setup should be carried out by a qualified technician. Improper setting up of the ventilation system 
can lead to poor and inefficient ventilation and can cause high noise levels and draughty air 
conditions! 

5.4 Set up procedure 

The set up of the ventilation system is carried out on the basis of the following general procedure: 
1. Visual inspection of the installed system

Ventilation unit, condensate discharge line, filter

Controllers, sensors, accessories

Air-duct system, thermal insulation

Special features (e.g. with open flue fire installation)

2. Start-up 

Switch on the power supply 

Functional check of unit and accessories 

3. Adjustments 

Volume flow rates, adjusting unit and valves 

Programming the control

4. Instructions 

Instructing the user / operator on control and maintenance procedures 

During initial measuring of the ventilation system, all interior doors and all windows must be kept shut. 
All settings required for start-up are made in the Installer menu (see “Control”). 

NOTE!  

Changes made using the Installer menu can have a significant effect on the operation of the 
ventilation system.  
•  The setting up procedure should only be made by a qualified technician. 
Incorrect settings can affect the efficiency and noise of the system and can cause system failures.
