Electric Heater Application/Operation

Factory installed electric heaters can be provided for preheat frost control. An electric preheater warms the outdoor air prior to the energy recovery wheel to prevent frosting on the wheel. Electric heaters are available in 208, 230, or 460 VAC (refer to heater nameplate for voltage).

Preheaters: Preheaters are standard as 2-stage, step control. Step control heaters are designed with multiple stages made up of equal increments of heating capability. For example, a 10 kW heater with two stages will be composed of two 5-kW stages. Preheaters are single point wired at the factory.

A temperature sensor (with field adjustable set point) is mounted in the outdoor airstream after the preheater to turn the preheater on. See Frost Control Application/Operation for typical set points. If the temperature falls below the set point and the wheel pressure drop sensor is triggered, the first stage of the preheater will turn on. If the first stage does not satisfy the set point, the second stage will also turn on.

Electric Preheater: The preheater is single point wired to the unit control center. Access to the preheater control panel is through the outdoor air filter door.

Unit Accessories

Outdoor Air Weatherhood

Outdoor air weatherhood will be factory mounted.

Exhaust Weatherhood

The exhaust weatherhood is shipped separately as a kit with its own instructions.

Dampers

Backdraft dampers are always included as an integral part of the exhaust hood assemblies. Motorized outdoor air and exhaust air dampers are optional and are factory mounted (and wired) at the intake.
