Model PVe Heat Recovery Unit

WARNING

The roof lining contains high voltage wiring. To prevent
electrocution, do not puncture the interior or exterior
panels of the roof.

WARNING

To prevent injury or death due to electrocution or
contact with moving parts, lock disconnect switch
open.

For units with a gas furnace, if you turn off the power
supply, turn off the gas.

IMPORTANT

Before connecting power to the unit, read and
understand the following instructions and wiring
diagrams. Complete wiring diagrams are attached on
the inside of the control center door(s).

IMPORTANT

All wiring should be done in accordance with the latest
edition of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70
and any local codes that may apply. In Canada, wiring
should be done in accordance with the Canadian
Electrical Code.

IMPORTANT

The equipment must be properly grounded and
bonded. Any wiring running through the unit in the
airstream must be protected by metal conduit, metal
clad cable or raceways.

CAUTION

If replacement wire is required, it must have a
temperature rating of at least 105°C, except for an
energy cut-off or sensor lead wire which must be rated
to 150°C.

DANGER

High voltage electrical input is needed for this
equipment. This work should be performed by a
qualified electrician.

CAUTION

Any wiring deviations may result in personal injury or
property damage. Manufacturer is not responsible
for any damage to, or failure of the unit caused by
incorrect final wiring.

Electrical Installation

1. Determine the Size of the Main Power Lines

The unit’s nameplate states the voltage and the unit’s
MCA. The main power lines to the unit should be
sized accordingly. The nameplate is located on the
outside of the unit on the control panel side.

2. Provide the Opening(s) for the Electrical

Connections
Electrical openings vary by unit size and arrangement
and are field-supplied.

3. Connect the Power Supplies

Connect the main power lines and electric heater
power lines to the disconnect switches or terminal
blocks and main grounding lug(s). Torque field
connections to manufacturer’s recommendations.

4. Wire the Optional Convenience Outlet

The convenience outlet requires a separate 115V
power supply circuit. The circuit must include short
circuit protection which may need to be supplied by
others.

5. Connect Field-Wired Low Voltage Components

Most factory-supplied electrical components are
prewired. To determine what electrical accessories
require additional field-wiring, refer to the unit-
specific wiring diagram located on the inside of the
control center access door.

Control wires should not be run inside the same
conduit as that carrying the supply power. Make sure
that field-supplied conduit does not interfere with
access panel operation. All low voltage wiring should
be run in conduit wherever it may be exposed to the
weather.

The low voltage control circuit is 24 VAC and
control wiring should not exceed 0.75 ohms. If wire
resistance exceeds 0.75 ohms, an isolation relay
should be added to the unit control center and wired
in place of the remote switch (typically between
terminal blocks R and G on the terminal strip. The
relay must be rated for at least 5 amps and have a
24 VAC coil. Failure to comply with these guidelines
may cause motor starters to “chatter” or not pull in
which can cause contactor failures and/or motor
failures.
