Lifebreath Official Ventilation Hood Manual for Models RNC200 and More

Engineering Data - HRV Model RNC200

THERMALLY CONDUCTIVE, PATENTED ALUMINUM CORE

The cross-flow heat recovery core transfers heat between the two air streams.

It is easily removed for cleaning or service.

MOTORS AND BLOWERS

Each air stream has one centrifugal blower driven by a common PSC motor. 2 speed fan operation.

FILTERS

Washable air filters in exhaust and supply air streams.

MOUNTING THE HRV

Four threaded inserts at corners of case designed to accept four reinforced polyester straps that are supplied with the unit.

DEFROST

Recirculating damper defrost system.

CASE

Twenty gauge prepainted galvanized steel (G60) for superior corrosion resistance. Insulated to prevent

exterior condensation. Drain connections	two - 1/2" (12mm) OD.
WEIGHT 71 lbs. (32.5 kg)	SHIPPING WEIGHT 73 lbs. (33.5 kg)

CONTROLS - HRV System Control

HRV defaults to LOW SPEED when plugged in. HIGH SPEED option is accessible by connecting remote controls to designated terminals inside electrical box of HRV.

Standard LOW SPEED SETTING can be increased to medium low.

Off (Standby)/Low or OFF/HIGH speed operation is also available.

OPTIONAL MAIN CONTROLS (only one main control can be installed on the system)

99-116	Dehumidistat Ventilation Control - Dehumidistat Dial, ON/OFF Switch and LOW/HIGH
	Switch (3 wire) 20 gauge wire (min.) 100' length (max.)
99-2040	20/40 ON/OFF Dehumidistat - Dehumidistat Dial, ON/OFF Switch and 20/40 Switch.
	The 20/40 Switch will toggle from continuous low speed ventilation to intermittent low
	speed ventilation of 20 minutes fan ON and 40 minutes fan OFF. (4 wire) 20 gauge wire
	(min.) 100' length (max.)
99-RECIRC	Recirculation Control - Dehumidistat Dial, ON/OFF Switch and Recirculation Switch.
	The Recirculation Switch will toggle from continuous low speed ventilation to continuous
	low speed recirculation. (4 wire) 20 gauge wire (min.) 100' length (max.)
99-130	Remote Dehumidistat - Dehumidistat Dial only. (2 wire) 20 gauge wire (min.) 100' length
	(max.)
OPTIONAL TIMERS
99-132	20 Minute Fan Timer - initiates high speed ventilation for 20 minutes. (3 wire) 20 gauge
	wire (min.) 100’ length
99-104	Digital Electronic Timer- initiates high speed ventilation for 20, 40 or 60 minutes, (3
	wire) 20 gauge wire (min.) 100' length
99-101	60 Minute Crank Timer - initiates high speed ventilation for up to 60 minutes, (2 wire)
	20 gauge wire (min.) 100' length (max.)

WARRANTY

Units carry a lifetime warranty on the heat recovery core and a 5 year replacement parts warranty.
