load conditions.
1.  Disconnect main power to unit before making 
adjustment to economizer and/or ERV unit.
2.  Replace ERV control access cover.
3.  Set thermostat to normal operating position.
4.  Restore power to unit.
Maintenance
1.  All motors use pre-lubricated sealed bearings; no 
further lubrication is necessary.
2.  Make visual inspection of motors, belts and wheel 
rotating bearings during routine maintenance.
3.  Eight pie-shaped segments, are seated on stops 
between the segment retainer which pivots on the 
wheel rim and secured to the hub and rim of wheel. 
Annual inspection of the self cleaning wheel is 
recommended. With power disconnected, remove 
ERV access panels (rear) and unplug [J150 & P150] 
(Refer to wiring diagram in this instruction 
manual). Remove segment and wash with water and/
or mild detergent.
4.  To install wheel segments follow steps A through 
E . See Figure 1. Reverse procedure for segment 
removal.
A. Unlock two segment retainers (one on each side of 
the selected segment opening.
B. With the embedded stiffener facing the motor side, 
insert the nose of the segment between the hub 
plates.
C. Holding segment by the two outer corners, press 
the segment towards the center of the wheel 
and inwards against the spoke fl anges. If hand 
pressure does not fully seat the segment, insert 
the fl at tip of a screw driver between the wheel 
rim and outer corners of the segment and apply 
downward force while guiding the segment into 
place.
D. Close and latch each segment retainer under 
segment retaining catch.
E. Slowly rotate the wheel 180º. Install the second 
segment opposite the fi rst for counterbalance. 
Rotate the two installed segments 90º to balance 
the wheel while the third segment is installed. 
Rotate the wheel 180º again to install the fourth 
segment opposite the third. Repeat this sequence 
with the remaining four segments.
Pulley Kit Installation
The units are shipped from the factory at the low static 
setting. Pulley kits are available for the medium and high 
static settings. To install a pulley kit.
1.  Check content of pulley kit, if pulley kit contains:
a. An adjustable sheave and a fi xed pitch pulley then 
remove belt and both motor and blower pulley
b. An adjustable sheave then remove the motor 
pulley.
c. A fi xed pitch pulley then remove the blower pulley.
2.  Replace pulley(s) with the pulley(s) from pulley kit. 
Make sure each pulley is installed with a key. Tighten 
the set screw on the pulley(s) to 100 in.lb.
3.  Install the belt that came with the pulley kit. Tension 
belt as explained in the blower speed adjustment 
section.
4.  Check the speed of the blower. Adjust the motor 
sheave to increase or decrease the speed of the 
blower. See blower adjustment section.
