puravent Thermozone AR 300 E/W Water Heat Air Curtain User manual

  • I've reviewed the datasheet for the Frico AR 300 series air curtains. This document provides an overview of the product's features, including its recessed design, dual functionality as both an air curtain and part of heating system, and built-in control options. I'm ready to answer any questions you might have about the AR 300 models.
  • What is the maximum installation height for these air curtains?
    What is the dual functionality of the air curtain?
    Can the frame and hatch be painted in a custom color?
    What is the control type of the air curtain?
    What material is the air curtain made of?

Application
AR300 is especially suited for environments with high
demands in respect of design. The recessed installation
is very discreet and the built-in control contributes
further to the concealed appearance.
Comfort
Several factors need to cooperate to create a comfort-
able indoor climate. With Thermozone Technology
an efficient air separation is created in combination
with a low sound level. The dual functionality as air
curtain when the door is open and part of the heating
system when the door is closed also contributes to good
comfort.
Operation and economy
The air curtain has a low energy consumption thanks to
Thermozone Technology and the extra function as heat
source means further savings. Built-in controls, easy
installation and maintenance minimizes the cost and
the risk for errors.
Design
AR300 is designed for recessed installation and
colouring is possible to make it blend even better with
the premises.

Thermozone AR 300 E/W
Control
The built-in control of AR300 is designed to give
the highest level of functionality while minimizing
installation and daily operation. No additional wiring or
external controls are needed. If the distance between
the eye and the reflector is too long, it is possible to use
an external door contact instead (accessory).
The air curtain operates at its maximum performance
in all situations and is not dependent on day-to-day
adjustments.
When the door is open the air curtain separates
outdoor and indoor air and provides heat if it is needed.
When the door is closed the air curtain operates as
part of the heating system supplying additional heat if
indoor temperature falls below desired temperature.
There are also possibilities to connect the air curtain to
a BMS system for on/off control and alarm indication.
The IR-eye detects when the door
is open and closed. The thermostat
is located by the air intake and heat
or ambient mode is set by a push
button. Alarm indication by LED.
The thermostat setting
and open door fan speed
selection is hidden under the
cover.
Design and specifications are subject to change without notice.
Protection class AR300E/W recessed mounting: above false ceiling – splash-proof design (IP44), below false ceiling:
normal design (IP20).
Approved by SEMKO and CE compliant.

Mounting and connection
Mounting
AR300 unit is installed horizontally with the supply air
grille facing downwards as close to the door as possible,
concealed in the false ceiling. The only visible part of the
unit is the underside that is level with the ceiling.
For the protection of wider doorways, several units can
be mounted next to each other. Ensure that the service
hatch is accessible and can be fully opened.
Minimum distance from outlet to floor is 1800 mm, see
Fig. 1.
Adjusting
An IR-eye is mounted on AR300. A piece of reflector
tape is also supplied. The door sensor can be directed
up/down to ”see” the tape, see Fig. 1. The maximum
distance between the IR-eye and the reflecting tape is
1,8 m. If higher degrees are needed should the reflecting
tape be angled towards the IR-eye. This is easily done
with the enclosed cylinder cut to the right angle.
When the distance between the eye and the reflector is
too far, an external door contact (AR300DS) can be used.
Connection AR 300 E 3
Connection is made on the top or on the side of the unit
with a five-wired cable with earth. The supply terminal
block is intended for a cable of maximum 16 mm². See
wiring diagrams.
Connection AR 300 W 2
Connection is made with cable and plug. Connection
of water pipes to the water heating coil is of type DN20
(3/4”), inside thread. Cable glands can be made from the
back, top or the sides of the unit. There are premarked
holes for drilling at these locations. See Fig. 2 and wiring
diagrams.

Thermozone AR 300 E/W
Electrical 3
The IR-eye detects when the door is open and closed.
Airflow and heat output are controlled automatically
based upon room temperature and whether the door
is open or closed. High speed can be set on 4 different
speeds.
When the door is open the fan runs on high speed,
when the door closes the fan will continue to run on
high speed for 60 seconds and then on low speed for 60
seconds. When the door is closed the fan runs on low
speed if there is a need for heating, if not the fan will be
switched off. If the temperature decreases further, the
fan will run on high speed.
The built-in room thermostat controls the heat
output. E.g. the thermostat is set on 20 °C and the
difference between the stages 2 °C. The thermostat will
activate below 20 °C when the door is closed. When the
door opens, the thermostat will activate below 22 °C
and normally the heat is switched on.
Possibility to choose between heat/ambient mode
(summer case). Alarm, door status and heat/ambient
mode is indicated with diodes on the IR-unit.
Complete control kit:
- Built-in control, controls the airflow and heat output
in 2 steps.

Water flow has to be regulated by using the VR20/25
Valve Set, see table below (accessory).

- Built-in control, controls the airflow and heat output.
- VR20/25, valve set.

Accessories
AR300ERS, external room sensor
If an external room sensor is needed, use the
AR300ERS. The external room sensor is supplied with
7 m cable and a modular contact for easy and quick
installation (no other adjustments are needed to get
the accessories working). The connection of the room
sensor is done on the control box accessible by opening
the service hatch of the AR300.
AR300DS, external door contact
When the distance between the eye and the reflector is
too long an external door contact AR300DS is needed.
The external door contact is supplied with 7 m cable
and a modular contact for easy and quick installation
(no other adjustments are needed to get the accessories
working). The connection of the door contact is done on
the control box accessible by opening the service hatch
of the AR300.
