Checks during operation

The air flow rate values must not be 
lower than 15% of the nominal values 
indicated in the technical specifications 
table. If an electrical resistance is 
present, check the cut-in by measuring 
its electrical absorption.

Requirements for R407C 

gas

The circuit chillers that work on 
R407C cooling gas require particular 
a t t e n t i o n   d u r i n g   a s s e m b ly   a n d 
maintenance, to prevent operating 
faults.

Therefore it is necessary to:

-  Avoid refilling with oil different from 

the one specified and already used in 
the compressor. 

-  If there are gas leaks causing the unit 

to be even partially empty, do not 
refill with refrigerant, but  empty the 
unit completely and refill it with the 
foreseen amount.

In the event of replacement of one of 
the refrigerating circuit parts, do not 
leave the circuit open for more than 
15 minutes.

In particular, in the event of 
replacing the compressor, complete 
the installation within the above- 
mentioned time after the rubber 
plugs have been removed.

-  When empty, do not switch on the 

compressor; do not compress the air 
within the compressor.

- When using R407C gas bottles, 

it is recommended to take care of 
the maximum number of drawings 
permitted in order to guarantee the 
correct ratio of components of the 
R407C gas. 

Refrigerant charge

For data relared to refrigerant gas 
quantity R410A to charge, please refer 
to the identification plate on the unit.

Unit maintenance 

CAUTION !

• 

During the maintenance phase, wear 

proper individual protection devices 
(IPD)  

 Before performing maintenance and/

or cleaning operations on the unit, 
make sure the unit is disconnected 
from the power supply and that it can 
not be turned back on without the 
knowledge of the person performing 
maintenance, and that the heat 
exchanger coils are not working.

During maintenance the weight of the 

inspection panelling could hinder the 
work. 

The RHE series recovery units have 

been designed to require very little 
maintenance and to make every 
operation easy. Some simple pieces 
of advice follow for the proper 
maintenance of the unit.

Filters

Filter cleaning is imperative to maintain 
high air quality in the room. The 
synthetic filters installed in the RHE unit 
can be regenerated with compressed air 
or can be washed with cold water. To 
disassemble the filters: 
• remove the inspection panel with 

knobs;

• remove the filters;
• clean the filters;
• replace all parts in reverse order. 

Condensate drain pan

Dirt can hoard up in the condensate drain 
pan. You are therefore recommended to 
clean the pan regularly and check that the 
discharge pipe is not clogged. 
To remove the condensate drain pan of the 
heat recovery unit.

If the unit is placed in the ceiling:
• remove all bottom panels;
• disassemble the cross bar;
•disconnect the pan from the condensate 

drain pipes;

• disassemble the pan supporting brackets;
• clean the pan;
• replace all parts in reverse order. 

If the unit is placed on the ground:
• remove all above panels;

Before the start-up

Before start-up check that:
– the system has been charged and the 
air has been blown out;
– the electrical connections have been 
made correctly;
– the line voltage is within the permitted 
allowance (±10%  of the rated value);

Unit start-up

For detailed information regarding 
the operating parameter settings and 
all other machine or control card 
operations, please refer to the user 
manual.

CAUTION!

Make sure that all the instructions have 
been complied with before carrying 
out the commissioning checks.

Before the first start-up of the heat 
recovery unit check the following 
points:

• the exact positioning of the panels 
in correspondence with the motor 
ventilating assembly that require 
opening by means of a screw-driver; 
• the fixing of the unit to the wall;
• the earthing of the unit to the 
buildings earth system;
• the connection to the ducts;
• the condensate drain connection to 
the trap;
• the insulation of the tubes to the coils;
• the ground wires of the electrical 
components;
• the absence of air in the water coils.
In particular check that:
• the electrical connection has been 
performed correctly and that all 
terminals have been sufficiently 
tightened;
• the voltage on the terminals is 230 
V ± 10% (for units with single-phase 
power) or 400 V ± 10% (for units with 
three-phase power):
If the voltage is subject to frequent 

ch a n g e ,   c o n t a c t   o u r  Te ch n i c a l 
department in order to select the 
necessary protection;
• there are no leaks of refrigerant  
through the use of a leak detector. 

CAUTION!

Before start-up, check that all the 
panels of the unit are in place and 
secured with the screws.

WARNING!
If, at the time of the first start, the 
compressor don’ t start, the cause can 
be attributed to a wrong wiring of the 
sequence of the phases L1-L2-L3 or 
to the interruption of one of them,  
resulting in the intervention of the 
relay of the phase sequence.
