1. INTRODUCTION
This Installation Manual is intended for professionals, qualied to install RHP Standard air handling units. Qualied pro-
fessionals are people with sucient professional experience and knowledge of ventilation systems and installation thereof,
knowledge of electrical safety requirements and having ability to perform works without endangering themselves or others.
See the KOMFOVENT website for user manuals.
1.1. Safety Requirements
To avoid misunderstandings, read this Instruction Manual carefully before installing air-handling unit.
Only a qualied professional in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and applicable legal acts and safety re-
quirements may install air-handling units. An air handling unit is an electrical-mechanical device that contains electrical and
moving parts, therefore, disregarding instructions of this manual will void the manufacturer’s warranty and may also cause
direct damage to property or human health.
• Before starting any tasks, make sure that the unit is unplugged from the mains.
• Use caution when performing works near internal or external heaters as their surfaces may be
hot.
• Do not connect the unit to the mains unless all the external assemblies are installed completely.
• Do not connect the unit to the mains in case of any visible damage incurred during transportation.
• Do not leave foreign objects and tools inside the unit.
• It is forbidden to operate air-handling units in areas with potentially explosive atmospheres.
• Heat pump system is lled with refrigerant (F-gas), therefore only qualied refrigeration systems’
specialists or“Komfovent”representative can perform any mechanical/electrical works on a heat
pump.
• Temperature of evaporating refrigerant is very low and causes severe frostbite in contact with
skin, therefore use appropriate safety equipment (gloves, goggles).
This symbol indicates that this product may not be disposed of with your household waste as speci-
ed in WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC) and national laws. This product should be handed over to a designated
collection point or to an authorised collection site for recycling waste electrical and electronic equipment
(EEE). Improper handling of this type of waste could have a negative impact on the environment and human
health due to potentially hazardous substances that are generally associated with electrical and electronic
equipment. At the same time, your cooperation in the correct disposal of this product will contribute to the
eective usage of natural resources. For more information about where you can drop o your waste equip-
ment for further recycling, contact your city authorities, waste management organisations, approved WEEE
scheme or your household waste disposal service.
1.2. Unit designs and sizes
An air-handling unit is a device designed to ensure good ventilation in the premises. An air- handling unit removes indoor
air containing carbon dioxide, various allergens or dust, while replacing it with ltered fresh air from outside. As the outside
air is usually colder or warmer than the air within the premises, an integrated recuperator (heat exchanger) collects thermal
energy from the indoor air and transfers the majority of it to the supply air.
RHP – air handling units with a rotary heat exchanger and an integrated heat pump. Rotating wheel (rotor) of a rotary
heat exchanger collects heat or cold from the indoor air and transfers it to the fresh supply air. Recovered heat/cold capacity
is changed by adjusting the rotor speed. When heat recovery is not required, the wheel stops. If a heat exchanger alone is
not capable of reaching a desired temperature, an integrated heat pump is activated. If heating/cooling capacity is still too
low, additional heaters or coolers may be activated.1

Heat exchangers and heaters (or coolers) are designed to compensate for heat/cool losses during
ventilation, therefore, we do not recommend using this unit as the main heating/cooling source.
The unit may fail to reach a user-dened supply air temperature when the actual temperature in the
premises diers signicantly from the temperature set point, since this will lead to inecient opera-
tion of a heat exchanger.
RHP STANDARD air handling units are manufactured in dierent sizes and various air ow ranges (from 400 to 1500m3/h).

Fig. 3 Example of a heat pump's information label
Heat pump is activated automatically when a rotary heat exchanger is unable to reach desired temperature; and is
switched o as soon as desired temperature is reached. Frequent starting and stopping of a heat pump may damage com-
pressor, therefore, when heating/cooling demand is low, the heat pump will continue running for some time after the set
temperature has been reached. In such cases, supplied air may be slightly warmer (in heating mode) or cooler (in cooling
mode) than desired; however, the extracted temperature control mode will help to reduce such temperature uctuations
(see “User Instructions”).
A certain airow is required to ensure proper operation of a heat pump, i. e. to ensure ecient heat exchange and main-
tain refrigerant pressure within limits. When airow drops below a minimum limit, a heat pump temporarily stops. Operation
is resumed only when airow increases. The table below shows the minimum airows required for heat pump operation that
must be taken into account when designing the ventilation system and selecting additional functions:
Unit model Minimum air ow
RHP 400 U-2.8/2.4 250
RHP 600 U-3.7/3 250
RHP 600 U-4.4/3.8 400
RHP 800 U-5.3/4.7 400
RHP 800 U-6.1/5.8 600
RHP 1300 U-8.1/6.6 600
Heat pump is not operating when outdoor air temperature is between 15°C and 20°C, as, in this case, the rotary heat
exchanger is usually capable of reaching desired air temperature.
If heating/cooling demand increases when the heat pump is switched o, additional heaters/coolers are activated1.
When the heat pump is running, we recommend operating air handling units with the smallest pos-
sible air volume dierence between the supply and extract airows. In case of high ow imbalances
(>20%), capacity and eciency of the heat pump decreases, therefore the compressor operates at
a critical refrigerant pressure limit. This results in reduced operating life and increased probability of
failure.
During winter operation, when the heat pump is in heating mode, condensate on the evaporator starts freezing and
forms frost. Large ice deposits block airow in the evaporator and may damage the heat pump. Therefore, the evaporator
is automatically defrosted during winter use. When the outdoor temperature drops below zero, the heat pump automation
system starts constantly monitoring pressure dierence upstream and downstream the evaporator heat exchanger. When
condensate accumulates in heat exchanger plates and ice starts to form, pressure increases and defrosting actions are initi-
ated. During the defrost cycle, part of the hot refrigerant gas is directed from the compressor to the evaporator to melt for-
ming ice crystals, therefore supply air temperature temporarily drops. Integrated electric or auxiliary heaters are switched on
to compensate for this change. As soon as frost melts and pressure decreases, all the power of the heat pump is redirected
to the heating process.

1.2.2. Unit types by duct connections
Depending on the installation and connection of the ducts, the air handling units are divided into:
• Vertical units (marked by the letter V) – when all ducts are connected at the top of the unit.
• Horizontal units (marked by the letter H) – when all ducts are connected on the sides of the unit.
• Universal units (marked by the letter U) – which duct connections can be relocated from the sides of the unit to the
top and vice versa. Each universal unit has 16 dierent duct layout options that are easy to change during installation,
depending on the intended installation location.

2. UNIT TRANSPORTATION
Equipment must be transported and stored in the original packaging. During transportation, equipment must be prop-
erly secured and further protected against possible mechanical damage, rain or snow.
Forklift truck or crane can be used for loading or unloading. For the crane operation, special lashes or ropes must be
used to securing them in the designated areas. Ensure that lifting lashes or ropes do not crush or otherwise damage the
housing of the unit. We recommend using special belt supports. When lifting and transporting the equipment with a forklift,
the forks must be long enough to prevent the unit from being overturned or mechanically damaging its bottom side. Air
handling units are heavy, therefore, be careful during lifting, moving or transportation. Use personal protective equipment.
Even small units should be transported on a forklift, a trolley or carried by multiple persons.
L
≥L
Max. 0,3 m
Fig. 7. Examples of transportation by crane, forklift and trolley
After delivery of the air handling unit, carefully inspect its packaging for damage. If mechanical or other damage is visible
(e.g., wet cardboard packaging), notify the carrier immediately. If the damage is signicant, do not accept the unit. Inform
the selling company or the representative of UAB KOMFOVENT within three business days about any damage detected dur-
ing delivery.1
Units should be stored in a clean, dry room at a temperature of 0-40 °C. When selecting a storage location, make sure the
unit is not accidentally damaged, that other heavy objects are not loaded on top and dust or moisture does not get inside
the unit.
• Air handling units are heavy, therefore care must be taken during lifting, carrying or moving
operations. Use personal protection equipment, do not stand under a suspended unit or a part
thereof.
• Only an employee qualied to operate a forklift truck or crane and familiar with the principles of
cargo lifting and safety requirements, must perform unloading or lifting operations.
• It must be ensured that the casing is not crushed or otherwise damaged by straps or ropes dur-
ing lifting operations. Use of special supporting structures (traverses) is recommended.
• When lifting the unit or section thereof, note that their center of gravity may dier from the geo-
metric center of the load.
• Mounting of separate air handling units in stacks is not allowed unless it’s construction design is
intended for such installation.
• Before installation AHU must be stored in clean and dry premises in their original packaging. If
the unit is installed but not yet in use, all connection openings must be tightly closed and the
unit must be additionally protected against environmental inuences (dust, rain, cold, etc.).

3. MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
3.1. Requirements for Mounting Location and Installation Base
RHP Standard air handling units are designed for ventilation of medium or large commercial or industrial premises (e.g.,
stores, oces, hotels, etc.) where standard air temperature and humidity is maintained. These units are not intended for
transporting solid particles within air ows. Standard equipment air handling units are intended for indoor installation; and
with additional accessories, these units may be mounted outdoors1. Air handling units are designed for ambient tempera-
tures from -30 °C to +40 °C.
• RHP Standard units are not intended for operation in areas with potentially explosive atmos-
pheres. Air handling units are not designed for ventilation and dehumidication of wet areas
(pools, saunas, car washes, etc.).
• If the AHU is installed in a room with high humidity level, condensate may form on the walls of
the unit at low outdoor temperatures.
An air handling unit must be mounted on a relatively large and sturdy base, based on the weight of the unit and in ac-
cordance with building regulations. Base must be made of reinforced concrete or metal structures. If the unit is not equipped
with adjustable height feet, it must be installed on a at and level base. Vibration dampening gaskets must be tted be-
tween the unit and installation base.
The outdoor air handling units must be xed to the installation base (e.g., metal angle pieces with
rubber vibration dampening gaskets).
Units installed on such base must be levelled in respect to the horizon – deviations shall not exceed 0.3mm for 1m in the
longitudinal direction and 0.5mm for 1m in the transverse direction.
1 Except RHP 400 and RHP 600.

3.2. Inspection Area
Based on its type, an air handling unit may be installed indoors or outdoors. When selecting an installation or mounting
location, you must foresee sucient and security compliant access space for repair and maintenance operations. The unit
must be installed in a way to allow partial or full disassembly and removal of assemblies out of the sections, if needed (e.g.,
in case of complex repairs).

Minimum service area A denes an area which must be free of any stand-alone or immovable devices, equipment, parti-
tions, structure or furniture. This area is sucient for performing service and lter replacement works. For repair and replace-
ment of components (e.g., removal of rotary heat exchangers), access area equal or wider to the width of the device B shall be
ensured in front of the device. Please note that the back wall of units must be removed for any repair works of the heat pump,
therefore, the distance between the mounted unit and the wall must be equal to or greater than the distance C. This gap will
also help to reduce transfer of noise and vibrations from the unit to walls, prevent moisture and mould due to condensation.

• When selecting an installation or mounting location, keep in mind that preventive maintenance
works must be performed at least twice a year or more often, therefore, a safe and easy access to
the unit must be foreseen.

3.3. Duct system installation
The air in and out of the unit ows through the duct system. The duct system should be designed and selected to have
low airow rates and low pressure dierentials, ensuring more accurate airow rates, lower energy consumption, lower
noise levels and longer life of the unit.
Outdoor vents must be installed as far apart as possible on dierent sides of the building to prevent the exhaust air from
returning to the air intakes. Try to install the air intake vents where the outdoor air is the cleanest: do not direct them towards
the street, car park or outdoor replace. We also recommend installing the air intake vent on the north or east side of the
building, where the heat of the sun in summer will not have a signicant eect on the supply air temperature.
It is highly recommended to install unit connecting ducts of supply inlet and exhaust outlet with a minimum slope on the
outside of the premise, to avoid water owing into the unit in case of rain or snow.

It is recommended to insulate the ducts in unheated rooms (attic, basement) to avoid heat loss. It is also recommended
to insulate the supply air ducts if the unit is used for room cooling.
Circular air ducts are tted to the unit with self tapping screws. Dierent air ow duct positions are marked on the sticker

• Ducts connecting the unit to the exterior of the building must be insulated (insulation thickness
50–100 mm) to prevent condensation on cold surfaces.
• Air intake and exhaust ducts must be tted with air closing dampers (mechanical spring-loaded
or electric with actuators) to protect the unit from exposure to climatic conditions when the unit
is switched o.
• In order to minimise AHU noise transferring through the ducts into ventilated areas, sound
attenuators must be connected to the unit.
• Duct system elements must have separate brackets and to be mounted in a way that their weight
is not shifted to the unit casing.
• Do not drill or screw self-tapping screws into the housing in other than specied locations as it
may damage internal wires and tubes.

3.4. Connection of external heating/cooling units1
Additionally, you can connect the following to RHP air handling units:
• Water heater.
• Water cooler.
• Direct expansion (DX) cooler/heater.
These accessories are installed in the air supply duct in the premises. All assemblies in the heating or cooling systems
must be connected by a qualied specialist.
When connecting the heater/cooler pipes, they must be supported by a box spanner – otherwise they will be damaged. If
water is used in the heater, for frost protection water temperature sensor (B5), must be installed. It is screwed into the special
hole on the return water pipe. The sensor must be thermally insulated so that the room temperature does not distort water
temperature measurements.
Fig. 9. Connecting the water heater/cooler hoses and installing the water temperature sensor
• When operating the unit with negative outdoor temperature, a water-glycol mixture must be
used as heat medium in a water heater or cooler or it is necessary to ensure a return water tem-
perature of at least 25 °C.
• Pipework package2must include circulation pump, which circulates heating/cooling medium
through the coil (smaller circuit) and 3-way mixing valve with modulated actuator. In cases if
2-way valve is used, additionally it must be installed non-return valves to ensure continuous
circulation around smaller circuit. PPU must be installed as close to the water coil as possible.
• In order to additionally protect the water heater from freezing, you may also use a capillary ther-
mostat (see section“Electrical installation”) that should be mounted on the surface of the heater.
Heat exchanger coil of DX coolers/heaters are factory-lled with nitrogen gas. Before connecting heat exchanger coil to
the refrigerant system, the nitrogen gas is discharged through a valve which is then cut o and coil connections are soldered
to the pipeline.

3.5. Connection of a Condensate Drain
Operation of the heat pump causes condensation that accumulates in specially designed condensate trays. Condensate
is removed from condensate trays via drainage pipes, therefore a condensate drainage system must be connected. Drainage
piping must be mounted with a slope, without narrowing sections or loops preventing water from draining. If such drainage
piping is installed outdoors or in unheated premises, it must be adequately insulated or equipped with a heating cable to
prevent water from freezing during winter. Drainage piping is connected to the unit with a siphon. Due to negative air pres-
sure in the air-handling unit, water may not drain out of the condensate collection tray by itself. Therefore, it is necessary to
connect a proper height siphon or a siphon with a one-way valve to the drain pipe.

Ø15 mm
Fig. 10. Installation of a siphon
Height Hof a siphon without a one-way valve is selected according to static pressure pinside the air handling unit:
H [mm] = 25 + p [mm H2O] = 25 + 0.1 x p [Pa]
The height of a siphon with a non-return valve may be lower; however, it depends on the technical data of the siphon
used; therefore, if possible, we recommend choosing its height in the same way as for a siphon without a non-return valve.
Fig. 11. Example of a siphon with a one-way valve
Any drainage system cannot be directly connected to the common waste water system in order to protect supply air
from contamination with bacteria and odours. Condensate from the air handling unit drainage system shall be collected into
a separate container or should be lead to a sewage grille without any direct contact: do not connect drain directly to sewer
pipe and do not immerse it into water. Condensate collection location must be easily accessible for cleaning and disinfection.

3.6. Outdoor Units
RHP 800 – 1000 – 1500 air handling units are suitable for outdoor installation1. Units for outdoor installation must be ad-
ditionally protected against environmental eects by installing a protective roof and exhaust air hoods. Air dampers must be
mounted on air duct connections on the air intake and exhaust sides. If the outdoor unit will be switched o during the cold
season, supply and extract air ducts (on the indoor side) must be tted with additional air shut-o dampers. These should
prevent warm indoor air from circulating inside the unit when it is stopped to avoid condensation, which may be detrimental
to electronic components. If air damper actuators are used which are not intended for outdoor installation, they must be
additionally protected against rain and snow with covers or boxes.
Air handling units, when possible, should be installed near the walls for protection against wind loads.

• The outdoor units with water drainage pipes must be additionally protected against freezing, for
example, with electric heating cables for drainage pipes.
• Connections of outdoor units must be additionally sealed (the sealant is not included).
• Air intake and outlet hoods must be installed as far apart as possible (for example by installing
additional duct segments between AHU and hood), to prevent the exhaust air from returning to
the air intakes.
• Air damper actuators of the outdoor mounted AHU must be protected from rain and snow. Ac-
tuators must be covered by installing additional protective boxes or hoods.
