Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing your new CORE HRV - Heat
Recovery Ventilation. The exchanger is classed as an high
performing Counterflow Heat Exchanger with maximum
efficiency due to our unique and patented channel design.
The HRV is a component for energy recovery (recuperation)
for ventilation devices that are designed for living spaces. The
HRV is not designed for any other operating mode.
Notes on packaging and shipping
Even though an HRV appears to give the impression of being
robust and sturdy, applying heavy weight to pallets whilst
storing or transporting, especially in combination with high
temperatures, can lead to distortion and damage.
For shipment of larger quantities, it is recommended:
- Pallets with sufficient load capacity
- No stacking over 2,5 m high
- packaging with foil
- securing the HRV on the pallet with a lid (cardboard)
and straps made of polypropylene.
For shipment of single HRV, it is recommended:
- A box suitable for parcel shipping
- Appropriate stabilization as a transport safeguard
(e.g. very coarse (> 10 mm), non-dusting filling
material)
The weight of your ERV varies greatly depending on the type
and height. In the following table you will find the minimum
requirements we recommend for cardboard packaging for
each weight:
TL = test liner, KL = kraft liner, WS = Fluting
Additional note:
Please contact your cardboard supplier for the exact
composition of the cardboard.
Notes on storage
The temperatures during the entire life cycle of the HRV must
be within the limits of - 20 ° C to + 50 ° C. Otherwise there is
a risk of distortion, odour formation, the occurrence of leaks
or other kind of damage. All of this reduces the high
performance of your HRV.
Never stack multiple HRVs higher than 2.6 m and do not
load an HRV with more than 30 kg. Do not load an HRV
unevenly.
Always place an HRV on one of its closed surfaces.
If you replace an HRV during the winter time with an ERV,
please make sure to store the HRV in a dark, cool place and
take in account the maximum load mentioned above.
Notes for handling and installation
The HRV is completely ready for installation. Please do not
use any additional oils, sprays, talc or other lubricants for
installation in order to make the HRV easier to slide into the
socket.
Please do not let the HRV fall and avoid strong forces.
The strapping attached at the factory is important. It is not
packaging material and should NOT be removed. It is used
to facilitate installation and maintenance of the ERV. The
strapping is not designed to carry the weight of the ERV
during continuous transport!
Notes on usage
The HRV is designed for living areas.
Before an HRV can be put into operation in a ventilation
device, the corresponding device settings must be made.
