2. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
2.1 Construction
Swiss Rotors produces two series of rotary heat exchangers in two standard widths of energy
recovery wheels: SF series with 100 mm and RT with 200 mm depth recovery wheel. This manual
applies to the SF series of heat exchangers. Please be aware that versions may differ from each
other by their components, parts location, dimensions, auxiliary equipment and motor types. Most
of the construction elements are maintenance-free, while those that require periodical inspection
are listed in the Maintenance section of this manual. To ensure a long-term operation, carefully read
the instructions and follow the given time control intervals.

with additional 500 mm spokes to reduce torque and eliminate material fatigue.
Bearings are permanently sealed and lubricated, therefore require no maintenance.
Swiss Rotors rotary heat exchangers, depending on the model may be equipped with
various stepper motors. For more motor-related information’s please refer to the motor
instruction.

2.2 Serial number identifi cation
Each product leaving our factory is equipped with a label plate containing product identifi cation data. Labels are
attached directly on the casing and provides essential information’s about the product. Fig. 3 shows the exact location
of the label plate. Take a note of the possibility that label plate design may be changed and look different depending
on the destination market. Despite slight visual differences, serial number will always remain in the same visible area.
Figure 2.4. Identifi cation label plate loca-
Each identifi cation label contains following pieces of information: model, dimensions, type of motor, type of rotary
wheel, type of controller, individual serial number. Using serial number for product identifi cation is the fastest and most
accurate method. By serial number we are able to identify your product and answer your question effectively. It will also
allow for the proper spare parts selection in case they need to be replaced. While contacting our company make sure
to have your serial number in sight.
Additionally, each Rotary Heat Exchanger is labelled with dedicated stickers providing the user and installer with the
most necessary on-site information. Stickers indicating the spinning direction of the rotary heat exchanger wheel allows
to install the unit in the correct orientation .

Swiss Rotors energy recovery wheels are sent on either wooden
pallets or transportation supports, sealed against weather
conditions, attached and strapped to prevent tilting. Wheel matrix
is additionally protected with cardboard and stretch foil to protect
from accidental scratches or punctures. Each heat exchangers
are equipped with additional leaning label.
SF heat series wheels are placed and tightly strapped to wooden
pallets, per MOQ. Transportation supports can withstand the
weight of the exchanger and prevent tilting to facilitate safe
transportation.
Wheels are covered with additional layer of carboard material to
Individual shipments may be packed in wooden casings with
wheel matrix protected by additional fl akeboard layer.
3. TRANSPORTATION
3.1 Packing
To avoid dents or scratches on the wheel surface please make sure to properly secure the package for the
further transportation.
3.2 At delivery
Each heat exchanger is equipped with special Leaning Label (Fig.
4) identifying whether the goods were transported in an appropriate
manner. Balls inside the contoured channels will help visualize the
method of transportation and whether the package was subjected to
undesirable tilting. Pay attention to the warranty sealing sticker of the
label – each leaning label is additionally taped with warranty seal before
shipment. Warranty is void if the warranty seal is broken or missing.
At the time of delivery, you should do the following:
• Check the condition of the package carefully in the presence of
a shipping company representative before delivered parcel will
be accepted. Look for any signs of transportation damage. Our
rotary heat exchangers are precisely and tightly secured for the
shipment. There should not be any signs of tearing on the surface
of the package, punctures, exposed elements or traces of opening.
• Pay attention to the way in which the goods were delivered. Check the leaning label and its warranty seal
sticker. Rotary exchangers can only be shipped in a vertical position. Any other way of arranging the package is
unacceptable. Pay attention to whether the shipment is delivered on a pallet or it has been dismantled without
permission.
• Swiss Rotors prepare shipments using professional labels and transport descriptions. If you see that the shipping
company did not followed the instructions given on the package - refuse to accept the parcel.
• Check if the received parcel matches with your order. Inspect the product label plate for confi rmation.
• In case of any damage please contact our support immediately - phone numbers are listed at the Contact chapter
of this guidebook or at our offi cial website: www.swissrotors.com.

ched to the casing of rotary heat exchanger.

Be especially careful when unpacking the exchanger. Energy Rotary Wheels can be transported only in a vertical
position. They cannot be stacked on top of each other. While unfastening the transportation straps, make sure that
the exchanger will not fl ip over. Use protective gloves – elements of the heat exchanger may have sharp edges or be
covered with the iron oxide, resulting from the material characteristics (which is completely natural – do not affect
the quality of the product.)
3.3 Lifting
To avoid damages and serious accidents, lift the
exchanger as shown on the following illustrations
and follow given instructions. Any other methods
of lifting the exchanger may result in its serious
damages or injuries. All the transportation tasks
should be carried out by qualifi ed staff. Use
protective clothing and make sure no one is in the
range of movement of the exchanger. Extreme
precautions should be taken.
Swiss Rotors wheel are equipped with the
special lifting straps (Fig. 5) attached on the both
sides of the casing. They are already tied to the
transportation holes on both sides of the upper
casing of an exchanger and are designed particularly for the lifting purposes. Any
other method of lifting is prohibited.
Transportation straps provided are adapted
to the weight of the exchanger and cannot be
replaced. If for some reason transportation belts
have not been attached at the top of your rotary
heat exchanger - contact Swiss Rotors support.
Remove the belts after installation.
Attach transportation hooks to both belts (Fig. 7).
Use hooks with additional safety clips to prevent
accidental fall. Make sure your hooks with belts
are adapted to lift the weight of the exchanger.
Use only professional transport utility.
Ensure an even weight distribution by lifting the belts centrally, at the middle of the heat exchanger (Fig. 8). Any retraction
from the centre of the exchanger axis may cause the exchanger to tilt and unclip from the belts. Make sure that your
lifting device can withstand the weight of the exchanger.
3.4 Moving at site
In order to move the heat wheel properly and safely, use pallet track or forklift (Fig. 6). Use the pallet track carefully by
driving slowly without making any sudden movements. Disassemble transportation blocks (one at the time) once the
heat exchanger reach the destination and will be fi nally ready for the installation inside a unit.
3.5 Storage
If the exchanger is not installed immediately, leave the product in its original packaging and follow the rules of proper
storage. Prolonged exposure of the product to the improper conditions may damage and shorten the lifetime of vario-
us rotary heat exchanger components.
