The Quantum NEXT is a decentralized (single-point) heat recovery unit, also known as a "push&pull" system, designed to provide adequate ventilation in enclosed spaces without energy loss. It is recommended to install two units in pairs, where one unit extracts air and the other supplies it. A pair of units can be installed in the same room or in different rooms (e.g., living room and bedroom). The unit is suitable for installation on an external wall.

The unit should operate continuously and only be stopped for maintenance or service. If heat exchange is not beneficial (e.g., during mid-season when indoor and outdoor temperatures are similar) or not recommended (e.g., when selecting "summer free cooling"), it is advisable to set the unit to "extraction only" or "supply only" mode and NOT turn it off.

Technical Specifications:

The front cover (A) is removable for cleaning without tools.
The internal ventilation unit (B) and the wall base (D) are made of high-quality, impact-resistant, and UV-resistant ABS, RAL 9010 color.
An integrated multi-color LED (C) provides visual feedback on the unit's status.
Intelligent humidity control is included.
An integrated temperature sensor automatically controls the inversion time (comfort mode).
Automatic anti-frost protection prevents ice formation on the heat exchanger.
The wall base (D) features a magnetic "connect/disconnect" system, allowing the ventilation unit to be detached from the base for maintenance.
A backup touch button (J) is located on the side of the ventilation unit.
A unique wing-type impeller design provides improved aerodynamic properties, low noise, and increased efficiency.
A highly efficient reversible EC motor with integrated thermal protection, mounted on sealed, high-quality ball bearings with a long lifespan. Designed for continuous reversible operation.
The telescopic duct (F) is adaptable to wall thickness.
An anti-morphing cover is designed to also serve as a template for wall base installation.
The regenerative heat exchanger (G) features a ceramic core with high thermal efficiency and washable anti-dust filters (H).
The external grille (I) is made of high-quality, impact-resistant, and UV-resistant ABS, RAL 9010 color, with an insect screen and water drip protection.
An infrared remote controller with touch technology, LCD display, and wall base is supplied as standard. Made of ABS, RAL 9010 color.
The device has double insulation, so no grounding is required.
No condensate drainage system is needed.
Protection degree IPX4.
Power supply: 220-240 V~ 50 Hz.

Usage Features:

The unit comes standard with an infrared remote controller (K) and a wall-mountable base (L). The controller is attached to the base using a magnet. The controller has an LCD display to visualize settings to be transmitted to the unit. Each time a touch button is pressed, the setting shown on the LCD display is transmitted to the unit. The IR receiver is located on the left side of the ventilation unit (E); it is recommended to point the controller towards the receiver when transmitting any setting. One remote controller can control multiple units. Two AAA batteries (not included) are required to activate the remote controller.

Upon power-on, the unit emits a long acoustic signal. The following functions can be activated/deactivated via the IR controller. When a setting is transmitted to the unit, a short acoustic signal is emitted, and a green indicator light flashes.

Airflow Direction:

Alternating: The unit operates in supply/extraction mode at the selected speed; the time interval is automatically defined by the temperature sensor. (Green LED, short acoustic signal)
Extraction: The unit operates in air extraction mode at the selected speed. (Green LED, short acoustic signal)
Supply: The unit operates in air supply mode at the selected speed. (Green LED, short acoustic signal)

Mode (active only when alternating airflow is selected):

Comfort: Optimizes acoustic and thermal comfort. The airflow change interval automatically varies from 40 to 120 seconds, depending on the temperature sensor. The first cycle is 120 seconds, then the cycle changes according to detected temperature conditions. (Green LED, short acoustic signal)
Efficiency: Optimizes thermal efficiency. The airflow change interval is set to approximately 70 seconds. (Green LED, short acoustic signal)

Continuous Operation Speed:

Quantum NEXT100: Speed 1 (10m³/h), Speed 2 (14m³/h), Speed 3 (17m³/h), Speed 4 (21m³/h), Speed 5 (25m³/h).
Quantum NEXT150: Speed 1 (20m³/h), Speed 2 (30m³/h), Speed 3 (40m³/h), Speed 4 (50m³/h), Speed 5 (60m³/h). (Green LED, short acoustic signal for each speed)

ON/OFF: The unit can be turned on or off. (OFF: Red LED, long acoustic signal; LCD ON: Green LED, short acoustic signal)

Boost Speed Increase: The unit operates at maximum power (Speed 5) for 15 minutes in extraction mode; it then returns to the previous mode/power. Boost mode cannot be activated if the unit is off. (Solid blue LED, short acoustic signal)

"Freecooling" Free Cooling Mode: When heat recovery is not desired, the unit operates in "supply only" or "extraction only" mode. (Green LED, short acoustic signal)

Intelligent Humidity Control: When the humidity sensor detects a rapid change in relative humidity, the unit automatically increases its power by one level. After 10 minutes from this change, the unit returns to the preset power. This intelligent humidity control is active only if the unit is in alternating airflow mode or extraction mode; at speed 5, the unit's power will not increase. To deactivate the function, press the button for 5 seconds; the symbol will appear at the top of the LCD display. (Flashing blue LED)

Anti-frost Protection: This function prevents ice formation on the heat exchanger at extremely low temperatures. When activated, the unit operates in extraction mode at speed 1 for 30 minutes. (Red LED, solid)

Acoustic Signal: Whenever a control signal is transmitted from the controller to the unit, the unit emits a short acoustic signal. This function can be deactivated by pressing the button for 7 seconds; successful deactivation is indicated by the indicator light turning green. When activating functions, the procedure is the same; successful activation is indicated by a green LED light and an acoustic signal. (Green LED, short acoustic signal)

Backup Button: In case of remote controller loss or depleted batteries, the ON or OFF position can be set using the backup button on the board by pressing it for at least 3 seconds. (ON: Green LED, short acoustic signal; OFF: Red LED, long acoustic signal)

Unit Synchronization: Up to 10 units can be synchronized using a cable (2-wire cable, max length 30m). The operating mode and mode change interval can be synchronized. When first powered on, the rotation direction (clockwise or counter-clockwise) is automatically set. Other functions such as speed, intelligent humidity control, and boost mode remain independently controlled on each unit.

Maintenance Features:

Maintenance can be performed by the user, as shown in figures 49-65.

Filter Reset: Every 3 months, a yellow LED indicator lights up, signaling filter maintenance. To reset the timer, press and hold the button for 5 seconds. (Yellow LED, short acoustic signal)

Troubleshooting:

No icon on controller LCD: Dead batteries, batteries not in controller, batteries incorrectly inserted. (Solution: Replace batteries, check battery placement, insert batteries correctly)
Icon appears on controller display: Weak batteries. (Solution: Replace batteries)
Unit does not respond to controller signal: Insufficient communication between unit and controller, unit has no power, unit not properly pressed against base. (Solution: Move closer to unit and point controller to IR receiver on left side, check power supply, check unit mounting)
Unit not working: Unit has no power, unit not properly pressed against base. (Solution: Check power supply, check unit mounting)
Unit operating at maximum power: Boost function activated, intelligent humidity control activated. (Solution: Wait for function to end (15 minutes) or deactivate Boost by pressing the button; wait for function to end (10 minutes) or deactivate function by pressing the button for 5 seconds)
Yellow LED light on: Dirty filters. (Solution: Filter maintenance/replacement needed: filter reset must be performed)
Red LED light on: Anti-frost protection activated. (Solution: Wait for function to end (30 minutes))
Blue LED light on: Boost function activated. (Solution: Wait for function to end (15 minutes) or deactivate Boost by pressing the button)
Blue LED light flashing: Intelligent humidity control activated. (Solution: Wait for function to end (10 minutes))
Purple LED light on: Unit not properly connected to base. (Solution: Check unit mounting)
Acoustic signal off: (Solution: Press the button for 7 seconds: LED indicator will flash green)
