Boosting the efficiency of ventilation units
Published:  February 2006

Incorporating thermal wheels for maximum annual heat transfer, Eurex Energy’s RotOvex units deliver airflows up to 180 l/s.

Packaged ventilation units from Eurex Energy incorporate a thermal wheel to exchange energy between the two air streams. There are three models in the RotOvent series, offering airflows from 10 to 180 l/s.

A thermal wheel was chosen in preference to a plate heat exchanger for its annual effectiveness rather than snapshot efficiency.

Eurex explains that the efficiency of a plate heat exchanger is related to the temperature difference across it, whereas the efficiency of a thermal wheel is largely velocity dependent and hardly affected by differences of temperature.

RotOvent units recover 79 to 84% of heat at all operational conditions. They come with EU7-rated bag filters and high-performance radial fans.

The largest unit has the option of micro-processor control.

These products are on the Energy Technology List and available ex-stock. A design and installation service is offered.
