Product Overview
The Sentinel Kinetic Horizontal Range
A wholehouse heat recovery system with up to 81% heat exchange efficiency. An easily accessible heat recovery cube protected by two removable ISO 45% Coarse (G3) Filter 2pk.
Incorporating two Lo-Carbon Energy Saving EC/DC motors ensures long life (typically over double the life of AC motors) and lowest possible energy use.
Fully insulated construction with built in condensation drain. Specifically designed for new build constructions with a high level of insulation.
The Lo-Carbon Sentinel Kinetic Horizontal meets the latest requirements of the Building Regulations ADF for wholehouse system ventilation: Continuous mechanical supply and extract with heat recovery.
The Lo-Carbon Sentinel Kinetic Horizontal models have three fully adjustable speeds and a purge setting (maximum airflow). Supplied with the unit is a digital controller that can be used to pre-set the speeds to any required airflow within the performance range.
Integral Humidity Sensor
The integral humidity sensor ('H' models) increases speed in proportion to relative humidity levels, saving energy and reducing noise. The sensor also reacts to small but rapid increases in humidity, even if the normal trigger threshold is not reached. This unique feature ensures adequate ventilation, even for the smallest wet-room. The night-time relative humidity setback feature suppresses nuisance tripping as humidity gradually increases with falling temperature. Acoustically lined - low noise levels from on 20 dB(A) @ 3m.
Multiple control options
Five volt-free pairs of switch terminals for sensor inputs allow boosting from a full range of Vent-Axia controllers - humidistats, PIR, timers.
Two terminals with 0-24V outputs allow 0V to 10V proportional control by sophisticated controllers such as CO2 sensors and proportional humidistats.
Switch-live for boosting via light switches (220-240V AC) or manual Normal/Boost switches. This connection has the advantage of Delay-On and Delay-Off facility. Delay-On enables you to prevent the Boost airflow between 0 and10 minutes after a light switch has been activated. Delay-Off allows the Boostairflow to continue after a light switch is turned off to ensure effective clearanceof humidity. This timer is adjustable between 0 and 25 minutes.
Summer Bypass
An internal damper is activated when the outside temperature is less than the room temperature. The damper opens allowing cooler fresh air to bypass the Heat Recovery Cell and reduce the internal temperature towards the pre-set 'Comfort Temperature'. When the inside air temperature reaches the pre-set 'Comfort Temperature' the bypass damper closes.
Evening Purge mode: The fans run on Boost speed until the internal temperature falls below the set 'Indoor' temperature. If, after five hours the internal temperature is still above the set 'Indoor' temperature, the unit will switch down to normal speed for the remainder of the 'bypass
open' period. Night-time Purge mode: As Evening Purge, except that the unit will continue on Boost speed until the internal air temperature reaches the 'Outdoor' temperatureset point (Default 14°C). This mode gives pre-cooling of the dwelling for the
following day. In Evening and Night Time Purge modes, the user can turn off the boost function by pressing the Boost button.
Frost Protection
In cold climates there is a possibility of frost building up on the intake side of the heat exchanger. In order to prevent damage, the Kinetic reduces supply flow while maintaining extract flow at temperature down to -20°C.
