fan cooled (TEFC) with Class F insulation.
Fan shafts shall be solid steel, turned, ground and polished. Fan wheels
shall be keyed to the shaft and shall be designed for continuous operation at
the maximum rated fan speed and motor horsepower. Fan wheels and
shafts shall be selected to operate at least 25% below the first critical speed,
and shall be statically and dynamically balanced as an assembly. Fan
bearings shall be self-aligning, pillow block regreaseable ball type selected
for an average life of 200,000 hours at design operation conditions, per

use of 50 mm deflection springs, internally mounted at the factory, together
with fan discharge flexible connection and thrust restraint springs.
Fan motors shall be factory mounted inside the fan section casing, on slide
rails having 2 adjusting screws. Motor capacity shall be as indicated. Fan
drives shall be factory mounted with final alignment and belt adjustment to

I. Filters shall be 25 mm
thick cleanable filter media in aluminum frame.
Heat pipes for energy recovery shall comprise a supply fin block coupled
directly to an extract fin block. In order to optimize the performance of the
heat pipe, supply and extract airflows shall be arranged to be in counter
flow as they pass through the heat pipe section. The heat pipe shall be
suitable for either side by side mounting between the two adjacent ducts
(horizontal heat pipe) or top and bottom mounting with the warmer air
flowing through the bottom section (vertical heat pipe). The length of the
heat pipes in the supply and extract section shall be selected so as to
match the respective air volumes. The number of heat pipes shall be
constant in both sections. The heat pipe assemblies will be delivered to
the AHU manufacturer or contractor fully charged and sealed with casing
15781 - 11
F. Circuitry: Heat pipes shall be formed from an array of complete loops, each
loop straddling the supply and extract airways with the same number of
tubes per loop in both sections.
There shall be a multitude of loops in the height/width of the heat pipe and
each loop shall be individually charged. Heat pipes with header
assemblies containing a single circuit are not suitable as a single leak will
render the entire heat pipe inoperative.
When multiple row heat pipes are used tubes in different rows shall not be
connected together, this will ensure correct counter flow between the
airstreams and optimize the performance of the heat pipe. Rows shall not
be manifolded together.
Heat pipe loops shall be arranged to allow gravity assisted liquid return to
maximize the internal heat transfer. Vertical heat pipes will have the
warmer air flowing over the bottom of the heat pipe and horizontal heat
pipes will incorporate a slope from the warmer side up to the cooler side.

I. Installation
2. For AHU mounting, the heat pipe shall be designed to fit within the
supply and extract sections with flanges on the centre dividing
plate sized to match the thickness of the panels separating the two
decks. The heat pipe shall be sized to maximize the available
finned surface area when fitted in the AHU. Once installed within
the AHU the heat pipe shall be blanked-off to ensure that there is
no air bypass around the fin blocks of either the supply or extract
section.
J. Independent Test Report: The heat pipe should have a third party
independent test report conducted by a certified laboratory from U.S.A /
Europe.
