Air coils: EQRT and LQRT

The ECONET® coils consist of a set of finned coil in the supply

air unit and in the exhaust air unit with functions for heat/

cooling recovery, heating as well as cooling of the supply air.

The coils are equipped with drip trays and connections for

air purging and drainage. A droplet eliminator should be

chosen if the air velocity through the coil is high. The coils

are manufactured from copper tube, which is expanded

against aluminium fins.

The header consists of either copper or rust-protected steel.

The maximum operating pressure of the coils is 1.5 MPa,

and the test pressure is 2 MPa. Other material for the tubes,

fins and the framework can be specified in the Acon selec-

tion program.

Coils with hygiene fins should be specified if cleanability

of the coils according to standards VDI 3803 and VDI 6022

is required.

The supply and exhaust air coils are connected together

by a liquid circuit with the possibility to connect externally

supplied energy or heating/cooling.

The pump unit consists of a pump/pumps, pipes , valves,

sensors, frequency inverter/inverters and a controller for

ECONET® energy recovery.

The pipes in the pump unit are anti rust painted and insu-

lated with Armaflex. The pump/pumps consists of a base

and a pump head, between which the chamber stack and

the outer sleeve are secured by means of staybolts.

The base and pump head are made of cast iron, and all other

wetted parts are made of stainless steel, DIN 1.4301. All

pumps are equipped with a maintenance-free mechanical

shaft seal of the cartridge type. Max. operating pressure for

the pump is 16 bar/160 mWC/1.6 MPa.

LIQUID-COUPLED HEAT EXCHANGER ECONET® STANDARD

ECONET® SCOPE OF DELIVERY

Exchanger package: EQRZ-05, LQRZ-05

The ECONET® Exchanger Package contsists of one or two plate

heat exchangers for connection to an external heating and/or

cooling system. The Exchanger Package is delivered separately

from the AHU and the ECONET® pump unit or integrated as

standard for eQ range, see page 4 and 5.

The exchangers are made of AISI 316 stainless steel, brazed

with pure copper. The tubes are made of high-pressure steel,

painted with anti-corrosion paint. These are then insulated

with Armaflex.

The typical pressure rating is 31 bar (450 psi), and the typical

temperature rating is 225 °C (437 °F).

The heat exchanger package, the ECONET® pump unit and

the external pipework must not exceed a total pressure drop

of 40 kPa for maximum liquid flow. If the pressure drop is

higher (a long distance between the components), it should

be taken into account when dimensioning the system.

The pipe connections are male pipe threads from DN25 to

DN50. The connections on the primary side against the plate

exchangers are female pipe threads from DN25 to DN50.

For dimensions DN65 and DN80, all connections are assem-

bled flanges.

The opening pressure for the delivered safety valve is 4.0 bar.

All sizes of ECONET® Exchanger Package come with a specially

designed stand for mounting on a flat floor.

The unit is delivered on a separate pallet.

Packaging

During transportation the ECONET® Exchanger protects in a

appropriate package. This is totaly environmentally friendly

and will discarded as secondary raw material.

LIQUID-COUPLED HEAT EXCHANGER ECONET® STANDARD

ECONET® SCOPE OF DELIVERY

Controller for heat recovery, frequency inverter and

sensors

The liquid flow in the ECONET® circuit is controlled by the

frequency inverter/inverters for the pump/pumps and by an

ECONET® controller. The controller is equipped with software

that optimizes the circulation flow in the circuit for each

operating condition. The software in the controller includes

protection and alarm functions.

The controller is Modbus, Backnet or LonWorks compatible.

Modbus communication is intrinsic to the controller, and

the Backnet and LonWorks module for the controller can be

chosen as an accessory. The controller is mounted on the

pump unit and is programmed with input data for the specific

project.

The frequency inverter for the pump is mounted on the

pump unit, and cables are routed to the ECONET® controller

and the pump.

Necessary components such as pressure and temperature

sensors for the pump unit are included.

Components within the scope of the delivery are installed,

and cables are routed to the ECONET® controller and the

frequency inverter. The additional components/sensors

needed for the calculation of energy recovery efficiency

are included in the delivery, if specified, but mounting and

cabling has to be done on site (not included in FläktGroup

delivery).

Packaging

Suitable packaging protects the ECONET® unit during trans-

port. This is fully environmentally compatible, and should be

taken for central disposal as a secondary raw material.

Commissioning

In order to guarantee safe and optional functionality for

ECONET® heat recovery, commissioning of each ECONET®

system shall be carried out by accredited and trained

personnel. Commissioning of ECONET® can be ordered and

These plates indicate:

– Which of the plate heat exchangers are intended for

heating and cooling.

– Inlet and outlet of the exchangers for primary heating

and cooling.

– Pipes for connection to the ECONET® pump unit.

With the pipes installed correctly, the ECONET® Exchanger

needs to be protected from condensation with insulation on

the pipes to/from the primary systems.

The shut-off valves on ECONET® Exchanger Package must

be open when the system is running as normal.

The ECONET® must be connected to the pipe system so

that expansion forces or the pipe system’s own weight do

not impose a load on the liquid connections.

The liquid connections are provided with signs for the

inlet and outlet.

General advice

Failure to observe general advice and installation require-

ments can lead to the risk of damage.

Flushing the pipe system

– ECONET® pump units are cleaned and flushed at the factory.

When flushing the remainder of the system, we recom-

mend that the pump unit is disconnected and that the P40

pump is not used during flushing.

It is extremely important to remove all the flushing/cleaning

fluid from the system before filling with anti freeze as a

chemical reaction can occur between the cleaning and anti-

freeze liquids. As the coils cannot be emptied completely,

they must not be exposed to the cold without anti-freeze.

Filling

– For optimal heat recovery, we recommend a premixed 25-35 %

ethylene glycol mixture. Max mixture for the pump is a 40 %

ethylene glycol mixture. The P40 pump should not be used

when filling the system.

Use a separate filling system, e.g. a separate pump with a

non-return valve for filling the system, e.g. a hand pump.

– Fill until a static pressure of 1-1.5 bar is obtained on the suc-

tion side of the pump to avoid the risk of pump cavitation.

– For filling of the Econet circuit for the pump unit with inte-

grated exchanger package, see position E, on page 4-5 and

for separate exchanger package see position 4 on page 7.

ECONET® ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION

NB!

If the ECONET® Energy Exchanger Package

is not integrated in the ECONET®-unit,

the system need an additional safety valve.

NB!

A purging valve must be ﬁtted at the

highest point in the system.

Important!

– Hold the pipe connections steady with

a pipe wrench when tightening external

pipes.

– Use ﬂax (hemp) and paste for sealing

the connections.

– Use sealings suited for anti-freeze liquids,

such as ethylene glycol mixtures.

The purging, safety valve and drain connections are routed

to the connection vessel next to the unit.

ECONET® ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION

Temperature limits

FläktGroup recommends that the pump unit and all piping

is installed in a dry location with an ambient temperature

of more than +15º C. If this is not possible, take measu-

res to avoid problems with alarms during a cold start-up.

Continiuous operation of the air handling unit is necessary.

Contact FläktGroup support for more information.

Installation examples

Do the installation according to one of the examples below.

If none of these examples are applicable for your application,

contact FläktGroup support before installation to make sure

that correct funtionality is possible.

Height difference limitation

– The recommended maximum piping length is 60 m (based

on 200 Pa/m external piping pressure drop.

– Let an external plumbing contractor set the dimension of the

pipes between the coils and the pump unit. The dimension of

the pipes must be applicable for the maximum liquid flow

and must be sufficient to ensure that the pressure drop does

not exceed 200 Pa/m.

Example 1. The standard pre-pressure of the expansion vessel is 0.5 bar. This can be used if the vertical distance between

the two sections of the air handling unit is maximum 5 m and the pump unit is installed on the ground floor.

ECONET® ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION

– Uses premixed anti-freeze liquid, type ethylene glycol/

water mixture. Prevent exposure to oxygen.

When using concentrated ethylene glycol, it must be

mixed with distilled water. The liquid must be mixed

24 hours in advance, so that the mixture will be free of

micro bubbles. When filling with premixed liquid from

a tanker lorry, ask for a flushing certificate.

– Mark the system with a label showing the actual flow,

type of anti-freeze liquid, and concentration.

– Check for, and seal any leaks.

– Check that the anti-freeze liquid used has sufficient

protection against corrosion, anti fouling and biological

growth. Follow the instructions of the anti-freeze liquid

manufacturer.

Air purging

To get rid of all air in the system takes time, but is vital for

the performance. Use automatic air purge valves combined

with manual air purge valves. Prevent the risk of contami-

nation blocking the sealing and jeopardizing the shut-off

function of the automatic air purge valve. Install a filter if there

is a continuous problem with contamination. When the system

is free of all air, make sure that all automatic air

eliminators are OK and all manual valves are closed.

Open and close all valves a couple of times. Close the by-

pass valve and start the ECONET® pump. The pump should be

run manually via the frequency inverter at maximum 30 Hz.

Under no circumstances must the pump be allowed to run

dry, due to the risk of damage to the seals. Purge the air

from the pump with its own purging valve. Make sure that

the system pressure is maintained at 1–1.5 bar. Refill

the system continuously as the pressure decreases.

If the pressure drops below 0.5 bar, there will be an A-type

alarm from the controller.

Miscellaneous

– Under no circumstances may the P40 pump be run dry.

This is because the pump will be damaged by the air,

resulting in leakage.

– The coils for supplementary heating/cooling have to be

installed with separate shut-off valves. The total pressure

drop for the heat exchangers on the secondary side must

not exceed 40 kPa at the maximum liquid flow for a closed

heat recovery circuit. A higher value should be taken into

account when dimensioning the system.

The purging, safety valve and drain connections must be

routed to the connection vessel next to the unit.

– Use air purge valves that can handle micro bubbles (type

Spirovent or Flamcovent).

– The vessel must be installed on the suction side of the

pump (between the pump and the plate heat exchangers

for supplementary energy) with a volume of at least 5 % of

the total system volume and with 0.5 bar pre-pressure,

3.0 bar opening pressure.

When the supply side is separated from the exhaust side

with a height difference, the vessel is recommended to be

installed on the highest point in the circuit.

– If the risk of cavitation is present on the suction side of

the pump, it is advisible to install underpressure air

eliminators.

MAINTENANCE INTRUCTIONS

General maintenance instructions

The ECONET® unit does not require regular maintenance,

other than observing the maintenance instructions provided

by the anti-freeze liquid manufacturer. On the other hand,

we recommend that regular performance checks are carried

out to ensure that the unit operates as it should.

Check and pay special attention to the following:

- abnormal noise and vibrations, if any

- corrosion on piping and brazed pipe joints, if any

- loose pipe clamps, if any

Warning!

Avoid ﬂushing with water near the electrical

connections of the inverter and cabinet,

since water could then seep into them and

may cause a short circuit.

Cleaning the standard ECONET® coils

Even an effective air filter cannot remove all the dust from the

air. The coating of dust on heating surfaces obstructs the air

flow and gives poorer heat transfer. The coils must be kept

clean, which is best performed with one of the following alter-

natives or combinations of these.

1. Blowing clean with compressed air

2. Blowing clean with steam

3. Washing or rinsing with water.

In the case of heating surfaces that

are coated with grease, an appro-

priate detergent should be added.

4. Vacuum cleaning

After cleaning, all the fallen dust

should be removed before starting the fan.

The drip trays for the coils should be cleaned as appropriate.

Also ensure that the water trap is cleaned and filled with water.

Cleanable coils for hygiene applications

All ECONET® coils with hygiene fins are fully cleanable accor-

ding to the standards VDI3803 and VDI6022. This means that

the coil can be cleaned with a high-pressure water system

right through the core. The cleaning nozzle used for coils

with a fin pitch of 2.0-2.5 mm and deeper than six tubes is

THD Power Clean manufactured by TECHNISCHER HYGIENE

DIENST GMBH (E-mail: [email protected], web: www.thd.info).

If the coil is six tubes deep or less, an ordinary nozzle can be

used.

1. Make sure that no sensitive equip-

ment, either inside or outside the

unit, can be harmed by the water.

Be extra careful not to damage

the filter. If the unit has an empty

section (EQTC), use the special drip

plate to protect the rest of the unit.

2. Clean the coil with a high-pressure

cleaner. If the coil is deeper than six tubes, a THD Power

Clean is needed to ensure a full cleanability.

3. Point the nozzle at a 45-degree angle to have a free passage

for the water jet through the coil. Make sure that the water

penetrates the coil.

4. Remove all dirt.

5. Dry all surrounding parts in the unit. heaters, to give stable

measurement values. GT00, GT10, GT20, GT21, GT30 are

included when heat recovery measurement is chosen

(option).

Anti-freeze liquid

Follow the instructions from the anti-freeze liquid manufacturer

regarding controls, maintenance, flushing and intervals for

filling with fresh liquid, etc.

TASK INTERVAL, EACH YEAR

Liquid status Check the freezing point of the frost protection ﬂuid and follow the instructions from the anti-freeze liquid

manufacturer, controls of frost protection/quality, purity, colour, etc.

Check the system pressure and top up with ethylene glycol mixture if necessary.

Check the liquid ow against the balancing report.

Coils Check that the nned surface of the coils are not dirty and clean if necessary.

Water trap Check that water is present in the water trap for the exhaust air and supply air coils.

Air purging Check frequently initially. An annual check is sufﬁcient after the ﬁrst year.

Shut off the pump and wait a couple of hours to make sure that the air bubbles have risen to the highest points in the

system, where the air-valves should be present. Open/close all valves in the system so that all trapped air can be removed.

Valve checking Shut down the system and open/close every valve to make sure it has a smooth operation.

Pump seals Check the seals, and replace them if leakage is excessive.
