replacement wire must have a temperature rating of at
least 105ºC.
DANGER
High voltage electrical input is required for this
equipment. This work should be performed by a
qualified electrician.
Frost Control
Extremely cold outdoor air temperatures can cause
moisture condensation and frosting on the energy
recovery core. Frost Control is a selectable timer control
that will prevent frosting. Frost control uses a Therm-O-
Disc P/N: 314886 T-O-D 60T11 (L15-10F) mounted in
the outdoor air intake compartment. Thermo-O-Disc has
pre-set temperature of 5°F and uses the normally closed
contacts; contacts open on temperature rise. Use the
test procedure for troubleshooting.
Frost Control Test Procedure
1. Remove power from unit.
2. Jumper the temperature indicating Therm-O-Disc in
the unit control center. Therm-O-Disc has a pre-set
temperature of 5ºF.
3. Set the frost control timer scale for T1 and T2 to 5m.
Set the timer settings for T1 and T2 to 0.
4. Add power to the unit. Blower should cycle on for 5
minutes, then turn off for 5 minutes.
5. Remove power from unit and remove jumpers that
were placed. Re-set timer settings.
• T1 timer ON setting set to 5 for 30 minutes of wheel
on time.
• T2 timer OFF setting set to 0 for 5 minutes of wheel
off time.
