Application
DUPLEX-N series rooftop unit ventilators are used for comfort ventilation, warm air heating and cooling of small shops, education facilities, restaurants, stores, sport and industrial halls and swimming centers.
The units are suitable for any place, where effective ventilation, possibly warm-air circulation heating and cooling with minimum operation cost is needed. It ensures high heat recovery efficiency, low installed fan power input and low noise level.
The DUPLEX Unit Features
- Low purchase cost
- Very low noise level
- Low weight
- Low electric power input
- High heat recovery efficiency
- Complete systems of built-in controls in several types according to application demand; the controls is fully integrated in each unit
- High chemical resistance of the hPS exchanger
- Hygienic design enables easy cleaning
Capacity range
Complete capacity range of approx. 1000 to 15000 m3/h can be covered with combination of fans and heat recovery exchangers.
General description
The DUPLEX-N series units are designed as compact units comprising two independently driven centrifugal fans with anti-vibrating mounts, a high-efficiency cross-flow heat recovery core made of thin plastic plates, removable G4 or F7 supply and exhaust air filters, drain pans, possibly an internal by-pass with a remote control actuator and an internal mixing damper.
The casing is assembled of a frame made of steel L-shaped profiles covered by sandwich plates made of aluminum sheets and polyurethane insulation (R = 2,1 m2K/W). A front door enables easy access to all components. The standard finish of the unit casing is a gray paint (RAL 9006). Unit air inlet and outlet ports are standardly from bottom. The outdoor ports are protected by an extension and possibly equipped with a sound attenuator.
Variety of fan types of different manufacturers can be used for each DUPLEX unit size. Fans differ in volume flow rate, available pressure, speed, sound level and power consumption. Single-phase, three-phase or special EC (DC) energy-saving fans are available. All fans are direct-driven.
For each unit size we offer several heat recovery exchangers (cores) with different recovery efficiency and pressure loss.
Basic optional accessories
By-pass of the plate heat recovery core on supply air side. By-pass consists of an opposed-blade damper and an actuator. It is fitted next to the recovery core inside the unit; it does not increase size of the unit.
Built-in opposed-blade damper including BELIMO 230 V actuator. It enables to mix fresh and stale (internal) air in 0 to 100 % range. Along with a mixing damper the e1 shutoff damper without spring-return function must always be installed.
Built-in water-to-air three-row (possibly five-row) heating coil; made of copper pipes and aluminum fins. Designed for systems up to 110 °C and 1,0 MPa. The coil is standardly equipped with flexible connection and a steam-gas capillary thermostat for freeze protection. A coil hydraulic kit for heating capacity control of R-TPO, R-TPO-3 or RS-TPO type can be supplied with the coil upon request.
Provision for additional installation of cooling coil. This provision comprises space for the cooling coil and the condensate pan.
A built-in coil made of copper pipes and aluminum fins, including a condensate pan with individual condensate drainage and a pressure switch for freeze alarm. Three- or five-row coils are chosen depending on capacity required, refrigerant type and air parameters. The DX coil can be equipped with accessories on request. Units with the DX coil are only made in floor-standing horizontal and flat, ceiling-suspended, and rooftop configurations.
A built-in coil made of copper pipes and aluminum fins, including a condensate pan with individual condensate drainage. Three- or five-row coils are chosen depending on capacity required, cooling medium type and air parameters. The cooling coil can be equipped with the R-CHW hydraulic kit on request. Units with the cooling coil are only made in floor-standing horizontal and flat, ceiling-suspended, and rooftop configurations.
Other optional accessories
Shutoff dampers standardly fitted with BELIMO actuators are located in the air inlet port. They come with a different actuator type including spring return types.
Hydraulic kits for water heating and cooling coilsThey are designed to control heating (cooling) capacity. It consists of a three-speed pump, two globe shutoff valves and connection pipes. Based on type they also include a mixing valve with an actuator (for a digital control), or a diverting thermostatic valve (for an electric control).
When needed it is possible to deliver door without standard hinges, only with quick lockes or spring fasteners. It reduces the necessary manipulation space.
Separately supplied heating coil to be fitted into round or rectangular duct. Capacities and diameters can be found in respective catalogue sheets.
It is possible to increase polyurethane insulation to 45 mm thickness (R = 2,1 m2K/W).
All units can be delivered dismantled on request. The unit is to be assembled by rivets and bolts directly on site, therefore the unit can be installed in inaccessible location.
For rooftop units only. The inlet e1 and outlet e2 extension can be fitted with a built-in attenuator.
Separately supplied coil for installation into round duct. It is suitable for cramped locations, where it is impossible to put the coil inside the unit, as well as for rooftop units. The coil is standardly equipment with the steam-gas capillary thermostat.
Spare filter textiles in sizes depending on unit type. They are available in the filtration of G4 and F7 class.
Additional supply air filter (DYNAMIC), including 24 V transformer and spare filter textile.
It is possible to equip the DX coils with refrigeration circle components: expansion valve with nozzle (A), solenoid valve (B, C), sight glass (D), filter-drier (E), eventually with evaporating pressure controller.
All DUPLEX units can be equipped with supply air filtration of F7 class instead of standard G4 class. Pressure drop of the filter is then 50 to 100 Pa (clean filter) depending on air flow rate, unit type and dirt accumulated. Prefilters made of multilayer pulled metal can be supplied.
Installation diversity
All positions are available in several port configurations, whereas each size has up to 160 options. For detailed information see the respective technical documentation.
In special cases, it is possible to supply units with completely atypical dimensions, "custom made". For detailed conditions contact the manufacturer.
