Technical specifications
General description
The aim of the HomEvap cooler is energy efficient, quiet
and safe air cooling of the residence. Its indirect cooling
function is to cool the fresh air-supply without affecting
the humidity. When there is sufficient suction of air, the
yield will increase as the outside temperature rises,
Relatively high residence humidity will negatively
impact the appliance operation, as it is cooled through a
evaporation principle.
Principle operation
The HomEvap Cooler can easily be placed on the
retourvent of the HRV. The warm air from the residence
area transports through o a humid matrix. This cools
down the air to almost the wet bulb temperature of the
air, for instance 29C/30% cools down to 20C/75%. The
adiabatic cooler has an efficiency of 80%.
The cooled air is stored in the HRV, which makes the
heat-exchanger a cool-exchanger. The warm outdoor air
flows through the cool-exchanger and is cooled before
blown into the residence area.
BEWARE: the effect on the room temperature is limited to the
limited airquantity.
Application
The HomEvap cooler can be applied to all HRV systems,
where during the warmth exchange, no humidity
transfer took place between the airsupply and airreturn.
Application on the enthalpy exchanger is possible, this
will increase the humidity in the air supply.
Description of parts
The most important parts of the HomEvap Cooler are:
The casing
The casing of the HomEvap Cooler is made of EPP
(expanded polypropyleen) with a circular 200mm
ductconnection on each side. The perks of this material
are that it is waterproof, lightweight and recyclable. The
casing exists of a upper and lowerhousing, that are
fastened by two rings. The bottom has a compartiment
with the mainboard, closed off by an EPP lid.
Internal construction
The internal construction is developed in a way that
optimally and safely cools the air
supply. It consists of a cassette
and a waterdistributor that
humdifies the matrix. The
airsupply flows through the
matrix and is cooled. Redundant
water is drained.
The controls
The HomEvap is controlled by a wireless control panel.
Operation
As soon as the space sensor in the control panel
measures a deviant temperature from the setpoint, the
cooler is activated. The software is designed to optimise
the yield and minimise the water usage, with the lowest
energycosts.
Safety
The control is provided with an anti-static water
regulation as extra security on legionella formation.
The included SHC80 sensor measures the relative
humidity and temperature in the duct AFTER the cooler.
It works as a maximum humidity security by preventing
condensation from forming in the ducts, due to a high
humidity under normal conditions of the appliance.
The controls have some built-in securities and indication
functions;
•The LEDs of the control print are located on the
bottom of the cooler.
•Any essential notifications are also visible on the
display.
•The wireless controller has batteries and is
uniquely linked to the included module.
