OVERVIEW
NOTE: This unit is
an Energy Recovery
Ventilator. It is
commonly referred to
throughout this manual as
an “ERV”.
NOTE: There is also
an indoor version of
this ERV, known as
the LE6XIN. It has a
separate manual.
NOTE: For all models:
RA = Room Air into unit
OA = Outside Air into unit
FA = Fresh Air to inside
EA = Exhausr Air to outside

1.2 FACTORY ASSEMBLY OF MODULES
The LE6XRT 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 LE6XRT is offered in four different models, the LE6XRTF, the LE6XRTH, The LE6XRTR and the
LE6XRTV. All four models are intended for rooftop, or outdoor installation, and will generally be in-
stalled on a curb or equipment rails. All four models differ from each other in the locations of the air
streams ducting. Units that are mounted on a curb may have one or more airstreams ducted through
the floor of the unit while units that are mounted on rails must be ducted through the side walls.
The LE6XRTH features Room Air (RA) entering on one side of the unit and Fresh Air (FA) exiting on the
other side. This model is typically mounted on equipment rails.
The LE6XRTF features Room Air (RA) entering on one side of the unit and Fresh Air (FA) exiting through
the floor of the unit. This model is typically mounted on a curb.
The LE6XRT 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.
