1 Use
1.1 Intended use
Rotary heat exchangers
Hoval rotary heat exchangers are energy recovery units for installation in venti-
lation and air-conditioning units and for process engineering applications. They
transfer energy through a rotating storage mass, which is alternately heated by
one air stream and cooled by the other. The following application limits apply in
operation:
Temperature
without controller -20…50 °C
with controller -20…45 °C
Pressure difference between the air flows max. 1000 Pa
Pressure difference to outside max. 1000 Pa
Pressure drop
1-piece wheels max. 300 Pa
Segmented wheels max. 400 Pa
Table 1: Application limits
Wheels without casing
Hoval wheels without casing are energy recovery components for installation in
ventilation and air-conditioning units and for applications in process engineering.
The following application limits apply in operation:
Temperature -20…50 °C
Pressure drop
1-piece wheels max. 300 Pa
Segmented wheels max. 400 Pa
Table 2: Application limits
Intended use also includes compliance with these 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 rotary heat exchangers may only be installed and maintained by authorised
and instructed personnel who are well acquainted with the units and are informed
about possible dangers.
These instructions are for operating engineers and technicians as well as
specialists in building, heating and ventilation technology.

■Observe any attached information and warning signs.
■Follow the local safety and accident prevention regulations at all times.
■The exchanger may only be installed, operated and serviced by authorised,
trained and instructed skilled personnel:
– Specialists as dened by these operating instructions are those persons
who, based on their training, knowledge and experience as well as their
knowledge of the relevant regulations and guidelines, can carry out the work
assigned to them and recognise potential hazards.
■Unauthorised reconguration or modication of the exchanger is not permitted.

6.2 Radial walls
Caution
Risk of injury due to uncontrolled movements of radial walls. Secure the
rotor position during all work (e.g. with boards).
Fig. 19: Securing the rotor position
Mounting the radial walls 3 + 4
■Turn the hub with the 2 pre-assembled radial walls until one hub plate is
pointing vertically downwards.
■Screw one radial wall each aligned vertically downwards and upwards onto the
hub plates:
– Mount the radial walls on the side marked with ' '.
– Ensure that they are aligned in the same way as the pre-mounted radial
walls: the edge at the outer end must not be bent towards the hub plate, but
must point in the opposite direction.

Checking the radial walls 3 + 4
■Check the axial run-out of hub and radial walls:
– Turn the hub with the radial walls so far that the newly mounted radial plates
are lying horizontally.
– Measure the distance A and B between radial walls and middle beam at the
positions
1
and
2
.
– Check that the tolerance values are observed (A = B ± 1 mm).
– Turn the hub with the radial walls by 180° and measure again.
■If the tolerance values are not observed:
– Remove the relevant radial wall from the hub again.
– Align the radial wall straight and screw it tight again.
– Repeat the measurement.

6.3 Storage mass
Caution
Risk of injury due to uncontrolled movements of radial walls and segments.
Secure the rotor position during all work. Use ropes or tension bands with
pulley block, for example, for controlled rotation.
Labelling of segments
The segments of the storage mass are numbered on the outside. The number of
the segment is in the middle. The number of each of the neighbouring segments is
written on the edges.

Installation of segment 1
■Secure the rotor position.
■Push segment 1 between the radial plates up to the hub.
– Make sure that the milled outer edges of the segment at the top and bottom
are within the curved edges of the radial walls.
– Gently tap the segment into the correct position with a rubber mallet.
■For exchangers with multi-layer segmentations:
– Mount the outer segments of the storage mass in the same step.
– Make sure that the identication of the segments matches.

Installation of peripheral plate 1
■Move the peripheral plate 1 into position:
– Align the edge with the hole facing up and the edge with the slot facing
downward.
■Loosely insert one screw and washer each into the hole at the top and into the

6.4 Purge sector
General notices
■Depending on the exchanger design, the purge sector is supplied loose or
pre-assembled at the factory.
– Supplied loose: Install the purge sector as shown below.
– Pre-assembled: Check that the purge sector is correctly positioned for the
actual installation position of the exchanger. If necessary, it can be disas-
sembled and reassembled in the correct position.
Notice
– With a wheel diameter of 3800 mm or more, no conversion of the
purge sector is possible.
– The same rules apply to the conversion of the purge sector for an
SM casing as for an SP casing.
■The purge sector for SP casings consists of 2 mirror-inverted parts (part A and B) .
Install only one or two parts, depending on the required size of the purge sector.
■1-part purge sectors are marked with '3' in the type code.
– Use part A or B depending on the position of the purge sector. The shorter
side rests on the middle beam.
■2-part purge sectors are marked with '5' or '9' in the type code.
– Always mount the two mirror-inverted parts on top of each other so that the
shorter sides are on top of each other. Depending on the position of the
purge sector, the longer side of part A or B rests on the middle beam.
■The purge sector for PR casings is always 1-part.
