4.1 Outline description

An appliance from the 

:++5&'&

 series is a highly advan

ced heat recovery unit, specially designed for minimum energy 
consumption and maximum comfort. This is achieved with the 
aid of various electronic control systems. A control unit with mi

croprocessor controls and monitors the safe operation of the 
appliance and ensures that the air quantities remain constant 

and at the preset values. 
The
