Structure and equipment
The main components of the device are:
• An external body composed of a polypropylene foam shell and a front cover panel
• A polystyrene counter cross flow heat exchanger, whose particular morphology guarantees a very high heat exchange
efficiency; H models are equipped with an enthalpy exchanger, which is also able to transfer the humidity present in the
air.
• Two brushless, low consumption motors with two pre-set operating speeds
• Management electronics which oversee the power supply and command and control of the device:
• Temperature sensors (bypass and defrosting)
• User panel, located on the front panel of the device
• Remote panel (optional)
• Two filters: G4 and M5
Note well: For Passive House compliant systems it will be necessary to replace the M5 filter housed in the external air
intake duct with F7 class filters.
