Use
1 Use
1.1 Intended use
RoofVent® units are supply and extract air handling units for use in tall, single-floor
halls. They have the following functions:
■ Fresh air supply
■ Extract air removal
■ Energy recovery with highly efficient plate heat exchanger
■ Filtering of the fresh air and the extract air
■ Air distribution with adjustable Air-Injector
Additional functions depending on unit type:

■ Heating (with connection to a hot water supply)
■ Cooling (with connection to a water chiller)
A system usually consists of several RoofVent® units. These are installed distrib-
uted throughout the hall roof. The individual units are regulated individually and
controlled based on zones. The system flexibly adjusts to local requirements.
RoofVent® units comply with all the requirements of the Ecodesign Directive
relating to environmentally friendly design of ventilation systems. They are
systems of the 'non-residential ventilation unit' (NRVU) and 'bidirectional ventila-
tion unit' (BVU) type.
Intended use also includes compliance with the operating instructions. Any usage
over and above this use is considered to be not as intended. The manufacturer
can accept no liability for damage resulting from improper use.
1.2 User group
The units are only allowed to be installed, operated and maintained by authorised
and instructed personnel who are well acquainted with the units and are informed
about possible dangers.
The operating instructions are for operating engineers and technicians as well as
specialists in building, heating and ventilation technology.

Construction and operation
3 Construction and operation
3.1 Construction
RoofVent® units consist of the following components:

■ Roof unit with energy recovery
■ Below-roof unit
The components are bolted together and can be dismantled. The connections of
the coil are located under the extract air grille as standard. The heating/cooling
section can also be mounted on the connection module turned round.
3.2 Air distribution with the Air-Injector
The patented air distributor – called the Air-Injector – is the core element. The air
discharge angle is set by means of the infinitely variable guide vanes. It depends
on the air flow rate, the mounting height and the temperature difference between
the supply air and room air. The air is therefore blown into the room vertically
downward, conically or horizontally. This ensures that:
■ with each RoofVent® unit a large area of the hall can be reached,
■ the occupied area is draught-free,
■ the temperature stratification in the room is reduced, thus saving energy.

7.6 Condensate connection
Condensate arising in cooling units must be removed via a condensate-proof line.

■ Install and insulate the supplied trap on the condensate connection of the unit.
■ Dimension the slope and cross-section of the condensate line so that no
condensate backflow takes place.
■ Make sure that the condensate produced is drained in compliance with local
regulations.
Art.No. 4 214 745-en-03 / Page 41

Condensate pump (option)

■ Remove the transport locking device from the condensate pump.
■ Install the condensate pump directly under the condensate drain connection;
the supplied container is prepared for installation on the Air-Injector.
■ Connect the condensate pump to a condensate-resistant waste water pipe. To
do this, use a hose and attach it using a hose clamp or use a pipe with an inner
diameter of 9 mm.
■ Route the condensate line from the pump directly upwards.
Fig. 33: Removal of the transport locking device
Notice
This line must not exceed the delivery head of the pump:
– head of 3 m up to a condensate quantity of max. 150 l/h

– head of 4 m up to a condensate quantity of max. 70 l/h
Consider the condensate quantity expected in your application. (It can
be calculated with the selection program HK-Select.)
■ Install an odour trap at the highest point.

■ Route the line with a constant incline downwards and then vertically down- Fig. 34: Installation on the Air-Injector
wards, and if possible down to below the condensate pump. This will create a
siphon effect and thus improve the effectiveness of the condensate pump.
■ Ensure that the condensate produced is drained in compliance with local regu-
lations.
Fig. 35: Connection of the condensate pump
Units in oil-proof design / in the design for high extract air humidity (option)
■ Install an oil/condensate drain with trap in accordance with the local provisions
