The APEX brings in fresh, outdoor air and removes stale, exhaust air. Prior to discharging the exhaust air, the energy recovery wheel transfers energy from the exhaust air to the outdoor air at an efficiency of 70-80%. Simply put, this unit preconditions the outdoor air to save money on heating and cooling costs. This particular unit also has cooling and heating options available after the recovery wheel to further condition the fresh air temperature if desired.

Installation

The system design and installation should follow accepted industry practice, such as described in the ASHRAE Handbook.

Adequate space should be left around the unit for piping coils and drains, filter replacement, and maintenance. Sufficient space should be provided on the side of the unit for routine service and component removal should that become necessary. See Service Clearances for more details.

Lifting

1)Before lifting, be sure that all shipping material has been removed from unit.

2)To assist in determining rigging requirements, weights are shown on next page.

3)Unit must be lifted by the eight lifting lugs provided on base structure.

4)Rigger to use suitable mating hardware to attach to unit lifting lugs.

5)Two spreader bars must span the unit to prevent damage to the cabinet by the lift cables.

6)Always test-lift the unit to check for proper balance and rigging before hoisting to desired location.

7)Never lift units by weatherhoods.

8)Never lift units in windy conditions.

9)Preparation of curb and roof openings should be completed prior to lifting unit to the roof.

10)Do not use fork lifts for handling unit.

SAFETY WARNING

All factory provided lifting lugs must be used when lifting the units. Failure to comply with this safety precaution could result in property damage, serious injury, or death.
