device’s base. The centre of gravity is located at the centre of the unit. The device must be carefully manipulated only in
the horizontal position.
6. INSTALLATION
6.1. INTRODUCTION
All models are designed to be installed hanging from the ceiling or located behind a false ceiling. When installing the
unit, is necessary to distribute the unit weigh between the 4 supports existing in the units. Using studded rods (Ø 8 mm),
it can be secured to the ceiling and levelled:
Check the distances between supports in the diagrams of the section: “Dimensions and free dimensions for mainte-
nance”.
The installer must make sure that the ceiling structure and the securing elements can bear the weight of the device,
taking into account that it is a dynamic load.
To prevent the transmission of vibrations from the unit to the rest of the installation, it is necessary that the installer use
specific isolation elements, as well as flexible couplings between the water connections and the pipelines.

6.1.1. Outdoor installation
The CAD-COMPACT ECOWATT range is advisable to be mounted indoors. Outdoor mounting is limited to areas
with less extreme climates. When it is installed outdoors,it is preferable to place the unit under a cover which
offers enough protection to prevent rain falling directly to the unit, or install the corresponding rain canopy (acces-
sory). If installed on the ground, sufficient space must be guaranteed under the unit so that it is possible to install
the corresponding siphons in the condensate outlets of the unit.
There is a Kit composed of 4 feet, which facilitates the assembly on floor of these versions: KIT FEET CAD-COM-
PACT.
Both in the case that the KIT FEET CAD-COMPACT is used, and if the unit is based on vibrators or supports made
on site, it is essential that the heat exchanger’s support is guaranteed on 4 existing support points (4 pcs. in the
corners of the unit).

In addition to the roof and Kit feet, it is necessary to equip the duct network with rain hoods or air intakes equipped
with anti-bird mesh to prevent the entry of animals or objects into the interior of the heat recovery unit.
Avoid condensations in electrical cabinet
In units located in outdoor installation where the heat recovery units stop during the night or during long intervals
of time, it is necessary to:
a) Install isolation dampers in air inlet and air outlet.
b) Add anticondensation devices in the electrical cabinet as: cabinet heating elements that prevent condensation
formation on cabinet surfaces and electronic components.

6.5.2. Condensate drainage
The units are supplied with 2 drains (one for each circuit). For added security it has to connect two drains to the
drain pipe of the building. Drain tips are 1/2 “GM threaded.
Drainage system
• To ensure the removal of draining condensate from the tray a siphon must be installed with pressure head diffe-
rence in mmWG greater than the pressure provided by the fan.
• The horizontal sections should have a minimum slope of 2%.

6.6. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The CAD-COMPACT ECOWATT range are supplied without a complete operating control integrated in the unit. The elec-
trical components included in the unit (fans, by-pass servomotor, filter pressure switches and temperature probes)
are supplied wired in an electrical cabinet located in one side of the unit. To access the electrical terminal block and
conveniently make the electrical connection of the accessories it is advisable to remove the connection board, follow the
following sequence:
1. Loosen the 5 screws that are distributed by the cover of the electrical cabinet (Fig. 1)
2. Open the cover and pull the metal plate on which the electrical terminals are located until it is outside the cabinet
(Fig. 2).
3. The electrical cabinet has a PG connector for the electrical power cable. Further of this, in a bag that is supplied
inside the unit, there are 3 more connectors that can be used to route the control wiring to the control accessories or
the control panel of the building. Pass the necessary wiring through the connectors.
4. Make the electrical connection to the control board and put it back inside the electrical cabinet, making it slide throu-
gh the existing guides (Fig. 3).
Fig.1 Fig.2 Fig.3
It is recommended to reduce the wiring lengths of the control maneuvers in order to reduce possible effects of the en-
vironment on the control signals.
To avoid interference that may affect the operation of the unit, it is recommended that the wiring be routed away from
other electrical power lines, motors, refrigeration compressors, frequency inverters or the like.
This equipment complies with the Electromagnetic Compatibility Regulations that are applicable to them.
The use of shielded cables is recommended, although in environments with a high level of electromagnetic disturban-
ces, it may become necessary to shield the wiring using a metal tube.
6.6.1. Wiring diagram
CAD-COMPACT models 500 to 3200 have plug-fans with EC motors 230V supply voltage, while the CAD-COMPACT
4500 model have fans with a three-phase motor.
The electrical wiring consists of two phases: the power supply of the fans and the control wire.

6.6.3.2. VAV Control (variable airflow), with CO2sensor or similar
CAD-COMPACT units are equipped with EC motors. The motors have specific terminals for sending a regulation
signal to control fan speed (0-10V). The 0V signal corresponds to the fan stop, while the signal of 10V corresponds
to fan maximum speed.
To perform the speed regulation in VAV with speed control with external sensor of CO2 or similar, it is necessary
to use the accessory CONTROL CAD-REG and the external sensor (see point 7.5.2.4.). In the CONTROL CAD-REG
instruction booklet it is contained the necessary information to carry on the electrical connection of the different
components.

13
6.6.3.3. CAV control (constant airflow)
The inverter is used to guarantee an specific constant air volume in the duct system, regardless of the filters
clogging state.
CAD-COMPACT units are equipped with EC motors. The motors have specific terminals for sending a regulation
signal to control fan speed (0-10V).
The 0V signal corresponds to the fan stop, while the 10V signal corresponds to the maximum fan speed.
To perform speed regulation in pressure or constant airflow mode, it is necessary to use the CONTROL AERO-REG
accessory and the corresponding external TDP-D sensor.
1º Connect the pressure transmitter TDP-D (accessory) to the specific pressure taps there are in the heat recovery
unit. Ensure that pressure taps “+“ and “-“ of the pressure transmitter concides with those of the heat recovery
unit.
+-
-
+
2º Perform the electrical connection and regulator configuration, following the instructions of the CONTROL AE-
RO-REG accessory.
3º Reconfigure the pressure transmitter. So that the regulation is correct and the transmitters correctly visualize
the airflow, it is necessary that it is configured to work in airflow mode with a range of 9,999 m3/h.
Adjustment to work in airflow mode
The selection between pressure and airflow is made by the DIP3(SW1) micro switch existing inside the micro
switch. Fix the micro switch in ON position.

14
Indicate the airflow range
Once configured the airflow measurement, press the “OK” button to set the first digit of factor k. The value flashes
and is adjusted using the buttons “” and “”. When set, press the “OK” button to memorise the factor k. The
actual measured value is displayed. If a airflow range is selected it is not necessary to enter a range of pressures.

6.6.3.4. COP Control (constant pressure)
Constant Pressure (COP)
This type of regulation is associated to multi-zone ventilation systems in which ventilation multi-room is carried
out by a single heat recovery unit. Flow regulation per zone is done using motorized dampers, so speed regulation
of the fans aims to maintain a constant pressure in the ductwork. The value of this pressure must be determined
by experimenting during the system start-up process.
CAD-COMPACT units are equipped with EC motors. The motors have specific terminals for sending a regulation
signal to control fan speed (0-10V).
The 0V signal corresponds to the fan stop, while the signal of 10V corresponds to fan maximum speed.
To perform the speed regulation in COP mode, it is necessary to use the accessory CONTROL AERO-REG and the
external pressure sensor TDP-D. In the CONTROL AERO-REG instruction booklet it is contained the necessary in-
formation to carry on the electrical connection of the different components.
1º Connect the pressure transmitter TDP-D (accessory) to the duct system where the heat recovery unit is duc-
ted. Ensure that pressure taps “+“ and “-“ coincide with those of the heat recovery unit:

All CAD-COMPACT range of heat recovery units have differencial pressure switches to perform the control of
polluted filters. The pressure switches are located inside the equipment and wired to the electrical cabinet. If you
want to obtain specific information on the status of the filters through (light or sound indication), it is possible to
carry out an electrical operation by passing the power line through the filter contact.

7. INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
7.1. FILTERS REPLACEMENT
The registers ubication for filters maintenance depends on the model and version. The exact ubication of the filters is
identified by a label in the profile that indicates the type of filter and its characteristics.
FALLING OBJECTS
By loosening the screws that hold the panels, they will be released. In units installed in ceiling, pay spe-
cial attention to this operation to prevent the fall of a panel. During the maintenance signaling the area
below the heat recovery unit and prevent personnel access to it.
Access to filters is done by removing the two registration panels located on the side of the heat recovery unit. To replace
the filters, follow the following sequence:
Fig.3Fig.2Fig.1
1. Access to the filters is done by removing the two existing side panels on the side where the electrical cabinet is located
(Fig.1).
2. Remove the 4 screws that fix the filter access panel. Hold the panel preventing it from falling when loosening the last
screw. (Fig 2).
3. Pull the dirty filter outwards, sliding it on the existing guide.
In the process of assembling the new filter, follow the reverse order, paying attention to the arrow that defines the direc-
tion of the air that you will find in the new S&P filter.

* In serial, the units are supplied with F7 as standard and M5 as extraction. All models allow the assembly of a second filter inside, obtaining, among others,
the following combinations: F7 + F9, M5 + F7 or G4 + F7.
7.2. ADDITIONAL FILTER INSTALLATION
The heat recovery is supplied with mounted filters.
Low pressure F7 filter for supply air and M5 for extract air.
Inside the heat recovery unit there is a specific rail for mounting a second additional filter (supplied as an accessory).
7.3. HEAT EXCHANGER
To perform the heat exchanger cleaning it is necessary to remove it from the unit. The disassembly can be easily done
from the lateral panel:
Core disassembly sequence per side
To disassemble of the heat exchanger follow the following sequence:
• Loosen the screws that hold the side panel. Before releasing the panel, ensure that it is well supported by the opera-
tor, preventing it from falling (Fig. 1).
• Remove the bypass assembly, releasing its electrical connector (Fig. 2).
• Pull the heat exchanger until it is completely removed from the equipment (Fig. 3).
Fig.1 Fig.3Fig.2
7.4. FANS
It is not necessary to access the fan to carry out maintenance tasks, nor to carry out the electrical connection since both
fans are wired to the electrical cabinet. However, it is necessary to leave enough space around the equipment so that it
is possible to access the fans in the event of their failure. Do not install the heat exchanger against a wall or an obstacle
that prevents access to the fans.
In case of need to replace the fan, follow the following sequence:
• Remove the access panel for the affected fan (Fig. 1).
• Release the screws that lock the metal plate on which the fan is mounted (Fig. 2).
• Pull out the plate and once outside, remove the fan and proceed to replace it (Fig. 3).

7.5. CONDENSATION DRAINPIPE
Inspect the drainpipe regularly and make sure it is not blocked, if this is the case, remove the obstruction.
Check that the drain pipe was done according to the indication included in the point CONNECTIONS of this manual.
The siphon should always be full of water. Check its level periodically, refilling it if necessary. An empty siphon can cause
the condensate tray to overflow and water leak through the equipment enclosure.
