grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the current National Electric
Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70.
V - Application
Mini Ventilators (MV) are used as stand alone. These
ventilators conserve energy by mixing warmer air with
cooler air in the following manner:
Recovery Wheel Mode
The Recovery Wheel mode is accomplished by two
blowers providing continuous exhaust of stale indoor air
and replacement by equal amount of outdoor air. Energy
recovery is achieved by slowly rotating the energy
recovery wheel within the cassette frame work. In winter,
the MV adsorbs heat and moisture from the exhaust air
stream during one half of a complete rotation and gives
them back to the cold, drier intake air supply during the
other half rotation. In summer, the process is automatically
reversed. Heat and moisture are absorbed from incoming
intake air supply and transferred to the exhaust air stream.
This process allows outdoor air ventilation rates to be
increased by factors of three or more without additional
energy penalty or increase in size of heating or air
conditioning systems.

VIII - Operation
How It Works
The unit contains an Mini Ventilator that is a new concept in
a rotary air-to-air heat exchanger. Designed as a
packaged unit for ease of installation and maintenance,
only connection of electrical power is required to make the
system operational. The concept consists of a unique
rotary energy recovery wheel that rotates in and out of
fresh air streams within a heavy duty, permanently
installed blower cabinet that provides ready access to all
internal components. The Energy Recovery Wheel
contains spirally wound polymeric material that is coated
and permanently bonded with a silica gel desiccant for
transfer of sensible and latent heat. The wheel is belt
driven by one motor and stretch urethane perimeter drive
belt.
When slowly rotating through counter flowing exhaust and
intake air streams the MV adsorbs sensible heat and latent
heat from the warmer air stream and transfers this total
energy to the cooler air stream during the second half of its
rotating cycle. Rotating the wheel provides constant flow of
energy from warmer to cooler air stream. The large
energy transfer surface and laminar flow through the wheel
causes this constant flow of recovered energy to
represent up to 85% of the difference in total energy
contained within the two air streams.
Sensible and latent heat are the two components of total
heat. Sensible heat is energy contained in dry air and latent
heat is the energy contained within the moisture of the air.
The latent heat load from the outdoor fresh air on an air
conditioning system can often be two to three times that of
the sensible heat load and in the winter it is a significant
part of a humidification heat load.
During both the summer and winter, the MV transfers
moisture entirely in the vapor phase. This eliminates wet
surfaces that retain dust and promote fungal growth as well
as the need for a condensate pan and drain to carry water.
Because it is constantly rotating when in the air stream, the
MV is always being cleared by air, first in one direction
then the other. Because it is always dry, dust or other
particles impinging on the surface during one half cycle,
are readily removed during the next half cycle.
In the heating season, when outdoor air temperatures are
below 10oF, it is recommended to use the (optional) low
ambient kit (factory installed 02 models only). At these
conditions you will need to determine the frost threshold
parameters.
The frost threshold is the outdoor temperature at which
frost will begin to form on the MV wheel. For energy
recovery ventilators, the frost threshold is typically below
10oF. Frost threshold is dependent on indoor temperature
and humidity. The table shows how the frost threshold
temperatures vary depending on indoor conditions.
FROST THRESHOLD TEMPERATURE
INDOOR RH AT 70oFFROST THRESHOLD
TEMPERATURE
20% 0oF
30% 5oF
40% 10oF

PAGE 4
Because Mini Ventilators have a low frost threshold, frost
control options are not necessary in many climates. Where
outdoor temperatures may drop below the frost threshold
during the MV operational hours, exhaust only frost control
option is available.
IX - Standard Features
Low Ambient Kit
Extremely cold outdoor air temperatures can cause
moisture condensation and frosting on the energy
recovery wheel (ERW). The outside temperature below
which frost will begin to accumulate is referred to as the
Frost Threshold Temperature, and is a function of both the
indoor DB temperature and the indoor relative humidity
See Table #2. Frost formation causes reduction of airflow
through the ERW; therefore, without frost control, energy
recovery and airflow may be significantly reduced.
A thermostat control is provided to shut down the supply
blower when outdoor temperature drops to a field-selected
frost control setting. The thermostat is located within the
outdoor air intake hood. To avoid depressurization of the
conditioned space, automatic or pressure operated fresh
air dampers may be required as part of the ventilation
system. Factory setting is 20oF.
of the circuit board. The following diagram details the
jumper location for each mode of operation:
Temperature Control (See Figure 7)
The temperature mode of operation incorporates one
sensor located in the fresh air intake of the ERV. The Start
Stop Jog sequence is activated when the outside air
temperature is between 70°F and 40°F. The SSJ module
provides two potentiometers in order to adjust the Low and
High temperature range of the start stop jog sequence. To
adjust the High temperature range, place a Multimeter on
the COM and HIGH test points. Use a screw driver to
adjust the potentiometer to the desired VDC representing
the temperature. The Low temperature range is adjusted
by placing a Multimeter on the COM and LOW test points
with the adjustment of the potentiometer to the desired
VDC representing temperature. The VDC can be
calculated for a desired temperature using the following
formula: VDC = 0.1429 x (Temperature) - 5.7143.

Table #2
Rotation Sensor
The circuit indicates the absence of pulses, within a
specified time range, provided by a magnetic sensor
detecting a magnet mounted on wheel surface. After the
initial time delay of approximately 5 seconds from circuit
power up, if the sensor fails to provide a signal pulse (no
wheel rotation) within approximately 5 additional seconds,
the alarm relay will activate the latch (until circuit powers
down) providing a 5 amp contact closure output. This
would indicate no wheel rotation and/or magnet in the
system has stopped at the magnetic sensor pickup point. If
the pulse (wheel rotation) is detected within the
approximately 5 second time period, the alarm relay will
remain open. No field timing adjustment of any type will be
required.
Climate Smart [Patent Pending]
There are three modes of control strategies available.
Temperature, Single Enthalpy, or Enthalpy and
Temperature control.
Mode of Operation
The mode of operation is selected with the adjustment of a
jumper. The jumper is located at the lower center position
Figure 7
Enthalpy Control (See Figure 8)
The enthalpy mode of operation incorporates one enthalpy
sensor located in the fresh air intake of the ERV. The SSJ
module compares the outdoor enthalpy to a preselected
set point. The value of the set point can be identified on a
psychometric chart with the standard control curves as A,
B, C or D. The set point can be selected as an aggressive
set point A for higher levels of free cooling or a
conservative set point D for lower levels of free cooling.
The Enthalpy sensor provides a 4-20 mA (0-100%) signal
proportional to the selected control curve A, B, C, or D. The
SSJ module begins the start stop jog sequence when the
Enthalpy sensor reports 60%. The Enthalpy 60% setpoint
for each control curve is detailed in the following table:
Figure 8

PAGE 5
Enthalpy and Temperature (See Figure 9)
The combination mode of operation will activate the Start
Stop Jog sequence when the Enthalpy meets the control
curve setpoint and the outside air temperature is between
the Low and High temperature setpoint.
2. Remove control access panel and apply jumper to low
voltage terminal strip at “1” and “3”.
3. Restore power to unit. Observe MV drive motor for
wheel and both blowers are running.
4. Verify that the MV blower motors are set to “high”
speed for correct speed and operation.
A - Blower Speed Adjustment
Blower speed selection is accomplished by changing the
speed selection switch on terminal strip in control box.
Both fresh air and exhaust air blowers are direct drive
multi-tap motors. Both blowers are factory set at “high”
speed for maximum airflow. To determine air flow setting,
external static pressure readings will need to be read
across the MV.
B - Air Balancing Adjustment
1. Remove plastic plugs in door panels(4 total).
2. With a manometer measure pressure drop [inches of
water column] across left half of MV(top and bottom
holes in door panel). Unit CFM is determined then by
referring to Table #2.
3. Repeat the same process for the right half of MV.
4. Place plastic plugs back in to door panels.
XI - Maintenance
1. All motors use prelubricated sealed bearings; no
further lubrication is necessary.
2. Make visual inspection of filters, motor assemblies
and MV rotating bearings during routine maintenance.
3. Filters should be checked periodically and cleaned
when necessary. Filter is located in front of MV unit
and before blower cabinet.
4. MV segment is positioned on a shaft extended from
middle support bar. Annual inspection of the self
cleaning wheel is recommended. With power
disconnected, remove MV access panels and unplug
[J150 & P150] (Refer to wiring diagram in this
instruction manual). Then remove wheel cassette
from cabinet by sliding assembly out of support tracks
Figure 6
LED and Test Switch
There is a +5V LED indicating the module is wired and
powered properly. If the LED is not illuminated check the
wiring and power supply. The SSJ LED indicates when the
SSJ module has entered the start stop jog sequence. The
RELAY LED illuminates when the relay is activated cutting
power to the relay contacts.
The pushbutton on the module is used to test the relay.
When the pushbutton is activated the LED under the
button illuminates. The LED indicates test mode of the
relay is operating. The SSJ sequence will not operate while
the module is test mode.
Recovery Wheel Mode
On a call for operation the MV media will rotate between
intake air and exhaust air streams. Both the intake air
blower and exhaust air blowers will also be operating to
overcome the air resistance of the MV media.
