VENTILATION THE RIGHT WAY
V E N T I L AT I O N & H E AT R E C O V E R Y
13.2 Standby mode
The ventilation units can be set to Standby mode (see sections 9.1 on page 18, 10.1 on
page 19, 11.1 on page 20 and 12.2 on page 23).
This triggers the following actions:
—
The current ventilation mode is ended.
—
The ventilation unit continues to be supplied with power.
—
The air flaps are closed.
NOTE
—
It is not a good idea to leave the ventilation unit in Standby mode for long periods (see
„Rules for correct usage“ on page 14).
—
On the M-WRG-S/Z-T-KNX (-F, -FC) ventilation unit, Standby mode is disabled at the
factory in association with the “Mains switch without function” option,
type: M-WRG-O/NOF.
13.3 Frost protection function
The ventilation unit is equipped with a frost protection function. In low outdoor temperatures, the
ventilation unit automatically switches to frost protection mode.
►
Do not switch the ventilation unit off in the winter. Note section „6 Rules for correct usage“
How it works (extract from the national technical approval Z-51.3-138):
To prevent the heat exchanger from icing up, there is a temperature sensor fitted on the exhaust
air side for constantly monitoring the temperature. If the exhaust air temperature drops below 2 °C,
the motor controller gradually changes the supply air and/or extract air volume flow according to
the fan level so that the proportion of extract air is increased. This causes the temperature to rise
on the exhaust air side. When an exhaust air temperature of 4 °C is maintained for a period of
3 minutes, the unit switches back to the previous operating state. If a temperature of 2 °C is not
achieved on the exhaust air side, despite increasing the proportion of extract air, e.g. because the
room has cooled down, the extract air and supply air fans are switched off. As soon as a value of
4 °C is identified at the exhaust air temperature sensor, Ventilation mode is resumed at the fan
level that was set before it was switched off.
