The gas or liquid side of Heat
Recovery Unit Heat Exchanger is installed in the hot gas line between the
compressor and condenser; or between compressor and reversing valve, if
installed on a Heat Pump System. For other heat source, such as generator,
bypass and connect the oil suction pipe to the hot gas line. The water side of
the Heat Exchanger is connected to the water heater tank to form a circulation
loop. Power is drawn from the compressor contactor or outside source. Waste heat may be collected when the
equipment operates, and the water circulating from the water heater tank is
less than 140⁰F. A minimum gas or liquid temperature of 125⁰F is also required
to allow Heat Recovery operation.
MOUNTING/LOCATION AQUEFIER Heat
Recovery Units may be mounted indoors or outdoors. They must be mounted
vertically, at a height above the top of the heat engine. While normally
located outdoors, they can be located in any convenient place, such as the
garage or laundry room..
CONTROLS All AQUEFIER models
contain a water high limit control. It is factory set to 140°F. Models also
contain a gas / oil low limit. It is factory set to 125°F. Freeze- protected
models are equipped with a water low limit. It is factory set to 50°F, and is
designed to operate when water temperatures of 40°F or less are detected, in
order to provide water circulation independent of compressor operation, in the
event of freezing ambient.
HEAT EXCHANGER AQUEFIER Heat
Recovery Units contain a corrosion resistant all-copper double wall heat exchanger
of counter flow twin tube design. Continuously vented along its entire length,
the Heat Exchanger meets strict IAPMO safety criteria, and exceeds UL
requirements.
CIRCULATOR PUMP AQUEFIER Heat
Recovery Units contain a low wattage wet rotor in-line single stage circulator.
Standard Models use a Taco 006 series circulator. This self-cooled pump is
rated at 90 watts, 230 volts and .40 amps. It is designed for 125 psi working
pressure and up to 220°F fluid temperature. The pump housing is bronze and the
bearings are ceramic.
