Energy exchangers
Energy recovery systems are very common in current building designs There are 3 common energy recovery systems on the market. 1. The rotary heat exchanger (RHE) 2. The plate heat exchanger (PHE) 3. The run around coils (RAC)
ECONET
Energy exchangers
There are a number of things to be considered when selecting an energy recovery system:
Energy recovery efficiency combined with the pressure drop Space in the equipment room Location of air handling units The duct connection Leakage and odor transfer (cross-contamination in the recovery system)

ECONET: Applications
Everywhere, where there is a need for a run around coil solution, including particularly Hygiene applications. Everywhere, where waste heat is available. Everywhere, where there is a desire to optimize the cooling system. Everywhere, where plant room space is restricted. Everywhere, where there is a need to protect the supply air filter.

The most important checks when starting up ECONET: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Check all pipe connections (counter flow) System filled up with right kind of glycol System purged of air and has an air purging system Expansion vessel on the suction side of the pump Electricity connection to ECONET frequency inverter and control box Controls connected

ECONET checks
Liquid status Check the freezing point of the frost protection fluid. Check the system pressure and top up with ethylene glycol mixture if necessary. Coils Check that the finned surfaces of the coils are not dirty, 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 in the beginning and after the first year. Stop the pump and wait a couple of hours to make sure that the air bubbles have risen to the highest points in the system, open/close all valves in the system so that 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 if there is too much leakage, change the seals.

Applications
Application: Supermarket
Why ECONET ? More than 40 ECONET references in Supermarkets Waste/Condensate heat available. Waste heat available from the chillers, 24 hr/day. Perfect for ECONET and most of the year the super market is selfsupporting concerning heating energy. Variation of the need of fresh air. ECONET is suited for VAV system due to continuous optimization of energy recovery.
