Ventilation Control
ERVs can be controlled by a CO
2
controller that can be
connected to fan control Low-Com-High (not all units
have two speeds). As the CO
2
levels exceed acceptable
limits, the dry contact across High-Com is closed, raising
high speed fan ventilation.
Unoccupied Recirc Contacts
On recirc defrost units, an unoccupied recirc control can
be achieved by connection to the terminal interface shown
below. These terminals require a 24 VAC signal which
could be provided by a timer, thermostat or other. Closure
of these terminals will cause the unit to go into a recirc
mode where the supply fan runs on high speed and the
exhaust fan stops.
IMPORTANT
Although these contacts are intended for use during
unoccupied periods, they are still active during an occu-
pied condition. Therefore, the 24 VAC signal should be
applied such that it is disabled during occupied periods,
preventing the unit from going into a recirc condition un-
necessarily.

Use of 24 VAC circuit requires
isolating contacts (ex. thermostat)
to prevent interconnection of
Class 2 outputs.
