doors and center partitions to be lined with ¼” thick foil faced polyethylene bubble insulation, with seams foil taped. The
floor shall be double skinned to protect the 2” thick, minimum 1.5 lbs/cu ft density insulation. The base shall be
constructed with heavy gauge galvanized steel with integral supports. Perimeter base frame designed to be such that it
overhangs when mounted on a roof curb. Access doors shall be double wall constructed internally insulated with 1” thick
insulation. A minimum of 2 latch and hinge assemblies shall be provide for each door and shall be rated for ambient
temperatures of.–40 deg. F. Each access door shall be provided with a continuous dual durometer extruded automotive
style flexible seal rated to –40 deg. F. Units with lift off access doors will not be accepted.

ENERGY RECOVERY WHEEL ASSEMBLY

The energy recovery wheel assembly casing shall be constructed with heavy gauge galvanized steel, reinforced at
sealing surfaces, removable end panels for drive access, inboard no-maintenance permanently sealed roller bearings
for small assemblies, external pillow block bearings for large assemblies, and an adjustable non-contact neoprene bulb
peripheral and inner seal. The wheel assembly shall slide in and out of the unit on a galvanized steel track for ease of
inspection and maintenance.

The wheel media shall be constructed of a corrugated synthetic fiber-based substrate impregnated with a non-migrating
water selective 4A molecular sieve desiccant uniformly and permanently dispersed throughout the matrix structure. The
wheel media shall be spirally wound to form fluted honeycomb geometry so as to eliminate internal wheel bypass.
Wheel layers that can be separated or spread apart by airflow are unacceptable due to the possibility of channeling and
performance degradation. Face flatness of the wheel shall be maximized (+/- 0.032 inches) in order to minimize wear on
inner seal surfaces and minimize cross leakage. The wheel shall be complete with a purge section, minimizing cross
over of return air into supply air, with a non-contact bulb seal. Wheels with large pore size desiccants like silica gel, that
are coated, bonded, or synthesized onto the media or without a purge section will not be accepted. The wheel shall
consist of evenly spaced galvanized steel spokes, a galvanized steel outer band, and an aluminum center hub.

The standard drive system shall consist of a standard motor, fixed pulley, and link type drive belt constructed from a
high performance polyurethane elastomer reinforced with multiple plies of polyester fabric. The drive pulley and belt
shall drive the wheel from inside the assembly casing. Wheels with drive pulleys and belts that are exposed will not be
accepted. Single phase drive motors shall have integral automatic reset thermal overload protection. Three phase drive
motors shall have a manual reset thermal overload mounted in the unit control enclosure.

Wheel media shall be in accordance with NFPA, and be UL tested and UL recognized as a component for heating and
heating-cooling appliance accessories. Energy recovery wheels shall be rigorously performance tested using the
ASHRAE 84-1991 and ARI 1060 standard method of testing. Recovery wheels shall be ARI certified and must bear the
ARI certification stamp.

FANS
Supply and exhaust fans shall be forward curved double width double inlet with ball bearings. Fan drive shaft shall be
polished with keyways for drive pulley mounting. Unit fans with machined flats on fan shafts for drive pulley mounting will
not be accepted. Fans shall have ball bearings suitable for operation in ambient temperatures of –65 to 250 deg. F with
a minimum L10 life in excess of 100,000 hours at maximum cataloged operating speeds. Fan bearings shall be
permanently lubricated and sealed, mounted in resilient neoprene rings. Fan housings shall have extruded holes for
base side mounting. Fans in units with air flow capacity greater than 2500 CFM shall have welded steel angle frames.
Fans in units with air flow capacity greater than 5000 CFM shall have welded steel angle frames with T bar supports
with cast iron pillow block bearings with grease nipples. Fan motors shall be rated continuous duty, ball bearing
construction, and have class F insulation. Variable pitch v-belt drives, of cast iron construction and adjustable motor
mounts to be provided. Units with fans, motors, and drives that do not meet the above criteria will not be accepted.

GENERAL SPECIFICATION

FILTERS
The supply entering and exhaust entering sides of the recovery wheel shall be complete with 2" deep MERV 8 pleated
filters. Units without supply and exhaust filters will not be accepted.

CONTROLS AND ELECTRICAL

The Solid State Electronic DDC onboard Control System provides unlimited flexibility in application and system design
and un surpassed control of temperature and humidity. Unit controls shall be mounted with in an integral enclosure(s)
with inner hinged access plates and exterior hinged access door so that fan access doors remain fully closed to
maintain accurate fan performance during control adjustment. The exterior hinged access door shall be the same
construction as the other unit access doors with two latches that require a screw driver to open. Two ½” trade size
knockouts shall be provided on the side of the unit that leads into the electrical control enclosure.

Unit controls shall include: fan motor / compressor fuses, contactors, and manual reset thermal overloads, energy
recovery wheel drive motor contactor, control transformer(s) with primary and secondary fusing. Unit wiring shall be
color coded with a numbered terminal strip for low voltage wiring and field connections. Unit shall have single point
power input terminals. Units without separate motor fusing and contactors will not be accepted

HOODS & DAMPERS

Units shall be provided with factory installed fresh air inlet and exhaust hoods. Hoods are constructed with minimum 18
gauge satin coat steel with the same finish as the unit. Fresh air inlet hoods are complete with removable mist eliminator
filters. Exhaust hoods are complete with a galvanized steel wire mesh bird screen. All flanges that meet the unit shall be
sealed with caulking.

ACCEPTANCE
Verify prior to bidding that the units meet the specified construction, and scheduled performance and electrical
characteristics. Units that do not meet the specified construction, accessories, or scheduled performance and electrical
characteristics will not be accepted.

ADDITIONAL ACCESSORIES
ROOF CURBS
Roof curbs shall of knock down constructed with minimum 18 gauge galvanized steel with perimeter wood nailer and
