MCA Example Calculation

Greenheck ERV selected: ERV-361S-B, 2 hp supply motor, 11⁄2 hp exhaust motor, 15kW preheater operating at 460 volt, three phase.

Step 1: Consult NEC table (not shown) for 2 hp supply motor amps = 3.4 A

Step 2: Consult NEC table (not shown) for 11⁄2 hp exhaust motor amps = 2.6 A

Step 3: Calculate 15kW preheater amp draw = 15,000W/ [460 * 3 ] = 18.8 A

If no preheater is used skip step 3

Step 4: Wheel drive amps for ERV-361 from table above = 0.6 A

Step 5: 24v Control Amps for ERV-361 from table above = 1.0 A

Step 6: MCA = Amperage total from steps 1 thru 5 x 1.25

MCA = (3.4 + 2.6 + 18.8 + 0.6 + 1.0)

1.25 = 33 A

ERV specifications

Greenheck Fan's Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) represents a significant advancement in the field of indoor air quality and energy efficiency. These systems are designed to provide balanced ventilation while recovering energy from exhaust air, making them an ideal choice for commercial and industrial applications.

One of the main features of the Greenheck ERV is its energy recovery core, which effectively transfers heat and moisture between the incoming and outgoing airstreams. This technology allows for a significant reduction in heating and cooling costs by pre-conditioning the incoming air, resulting in less strain on HVAC systems. The core is engineered for high efficiency, delivering seasonal energy savings and contributing to LEED certification for green buildings.

Another notable characteristic of the Greenheck ERV is its versatility. The units come in various sizes and configurations to meet different building specifications and ventilation requirements. They are suitable for a wide range of applications, from schools and offices to hospitals and industrial spaces. Users can customize the ERV to suit specific needs, including options for enhanced filtration, integrated controls, and multiple airflow configurations.

The construction quality of Greenheck ERVs is also commendable. They feature robust materials that ensure long-lasting performance and durability, even in demanding environments. The units are designed to withstand harsh outdoor conditions, making them reliable for year-round operation. Furthermore, the noise levels are minimized thanks to their well-engineered design, providing a comfortable indoor environment free of distracting sounds.

Greenheck has incorporated advanced controls and monitoring technologies into its ERV systems. This feature allows users to track performance, optimize energy use, and maintain indoor air quality. The controls can be integrated with building management systems for seamless operation. Moreover, the units are designed for ease of maintenance, with accessible components that simplify servicing and repairs.

In summary, Greenheck Fan's Energy Recovery Ventilator combines energy efficiency, versatility, and advanced technology to deliver exceptional indoor air quality solutions. Its energy-recovery capabilities, adaptability to various applications, durable construction, and advanced controls position it as a leading choice in the market for energy recovery and ventilation solutions.
