Installation Guidance

1. The installer is responsible for the installation and electrical connection of the sentinel

system on site. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the equipment is safely

and securely installed and left only when mechanically and electrically safe.

2. All regulations and requirements must be strictly followed to prevent hazards to life and

property, both during and after installation, and during any subsequent servicing and

maintenance.

3. The unit’s condensate drain must be connected to the building’s wastewater drainage

system.

4. Certain applications may require the installation of sound attenuation to achieve the

sound levels required.

5. The unit must not be connected directly to a tumble drier.

6. The supply and exhaust valves must be fully opened prior to commissioning.

7. The intake air must be drawn from the exterior of the property.

8. The unit should be allowed to stabilise during commissioning for a minimum period of 5

minutes when changing between boost and normal speeds.

9. Ensure that the unit’s external grilles are a minimum of 1500mm apart. The exhaust grille

should be located at least 600mm away from any flue outlet. The inlet grille should be

located 2000mm away from any flue outlet.

10. This product and associated duct installation should be carried out in accordance with

the domestic ventilation compliance guide.

UK Building Regulations (Part F)

Declaration of Conformance

The Sentinel Kinetic conforms to the 2010 Building

Regulation (Part F - Means of Ventilation, F1(1), F(2))

requirements for fixed systems for mechanical extract fans

when installed in accordance with the instructions in this

document and the Domestic Ventilation Compliance

Guide.

Technical Data

Product Description

The Vent-Axia Sentinel Kinetic Advance models S & SX Mechanical Ventilation/Heat Recovery

(MVHR) is a heat recovery unit designed for the energy efficient ventilation of houses and similar

dwellings, conforming to the latest requirements of the Building Regulations document F 2010.

The unit is designed for continuous 24 hour exhaust ventilation of stale moist air from bathrooms, toilets,

utility rooms and kitchens. As the stale air is extracted, a heat exchanger within the unit transfers up to

93% of the waste air’s room temperature, into the supply air entering the bedrooms and lounge. This

design concept provides significant energy recovery on household heat costs, coupled with the optimum

comfort conditions.

In addition, a Kinetic Advance SX unit maintains a constant airflow independent of change in system

pressure.

Flow Rate settings

The Sentinel Kinetic Advance has four (4) user defined speeds in addition to the non-adjustable Maximum speed.

User defined speeds can be assigned a Mode name from the list below. (some options may not be available in your

region)

- Low

- Normal (Unit default operating mode)

- Boost

- Purge

- Holiday

- Night time

- Party

- Unoccupied

- Over pressure

- Fireplace

Note: The flow rate for each mode is set independently and not defined by the mode name.

When setting up Over Pressure or Fireplace Mode, the supply rate must be set higher than extract rate. This is to

provide a positive internal pressure in the dwelling to assist with the initial expulsion of combustion products from

the fireplace via the flue.

Fireplace mode does not prevent under-pressure

Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) systems are not designed to provide combustion air.

NOTE: It is the responsibility of the open-flued appliance installer to ensure conformance with the current local

building regulations for fuel burning appliances.

Technical Data

Sentinel Kinetic Advance MVHR Installation & Commissioning Instructions PN 474957 9

Summer Bypass Mode

The Sentinel Kinetic Advance includes a Summer Bypass (SBP) feature to bypass the heat exchanger to

provide cooling when the desired Indoor Temperature is above the ambient temperature.

Note that the volume of air provided by a ventilation system is a fraction of that required for space heating or

space cooling and will not in itself be sufficient to cool a room. It will however, provide a contribution.

Modes of operation

Bypass Mode Operation

Off Bypass feature is disabled

Normal The unit will run on Normal Mode, unless cancelled

Evening Fresh The unit will run on the user selected Mode for 5-hours before

reverting to Normal, unless cancelled

Night Time Fresh*The unit will run at the user selected Mode, unless cancelled

Bypass mode will operate when both the Indoor and Outdoor temperature thresholds are exceeded, and the

outdoor temperature is below the indoor temperature.

Indoor Temp: This is the maximum desired indoor temperature. Above the set indoor temperature the

summer bypass will operate.

Indoor temp should be set, 2-3°C higher than the central heating thermostat to prevent the bypass operating

in winter, and 2-3°C lower than any air conditioning thermostat if fitted.

Outdoor Temp: This is the minimum allowed outdoor air temperature. The air temperature must be above

this value for the Bypass to operate, use this value to prevent the bypass operating in winter.

The suggested Outdoor Temp, is 14°C, set as appropriate for your region.

Bypass mode will be cancelled when either:

- The internal air temperature drops below the Indoor Temp threshold, or

- The external air temperature drops below the Outdoor Temp threshold

Note: Pressing the Boost button during Evening Fresh and Night Time fresh operation will revert the unit to

Normal bypass mode.

It is recommended that the user selected mode chosen for Evening Fresh and Night Time Fresh is higher

than Normal flow rate to reduce the indoor temperature more rapidly.

*Night Time Fresh Mode is intended for use through the night when cooling is a higher priority than any

increase of noise. Note, that the air noise in your system is influenced by flowrate, ducting design, layout

and the size and type of vents used in the rooms. If improvements are required please contact your

installer.

Accessories

Some accessories may be included as standard equipment depending on the version.

409195 WIFI Controller Accessory

The WIFI controller is a plug & play accessory that fits next to the Control module. This offers the user

instant access to various functions and features for direct monitoring and control of the unit using a smart

phone or tablet via the Vent-Axia mobile application.

472693 Ventwise PCB Accessory.

The optional Ventwise controller has four inputs. These can be used for sensing temperature rise in a

bath/shower hot water supply and/or current in a cooker/hob electrical circuit to activate boost, ensuring

additional ventilation when needed.

472697 Input Switch PCB Accessory.

The optional Input Switch Accessory offers four volt-free pairs of switch terminals to allow boosting from

manual switches or a full range of Vent-Axia controllers e.g. humidistats, PIRs and timers.

472699 Switched Live expansion PCB Accessory.

The optional Switched Live (LS) expansion accessory offers two extra switched live inputs (LS2 and LS3)

for boosting via light switches (220-240V AC) or Normal/Boost switch. This connection has the advantage

of Delay and Over-run features.

Delay enables the prevention of boost airflow between 1-20 minutes.

Over-run enables boost airflow to continue after the light switch has been turned off between 1-30 minutes

472701 Analogue Input PCB Accessory.

The Analogue Input Accessory has two terminals with 0-10V inputs to allow proportional 0–10V control by

sophisticated controllers such as CO2sensors and proportional humidistats.

474491 Wired Remote Docking Kit Accessory.

The Controller Docking Kit has been designed to allow the Controller module to be removed from the

MVHR & mounted remotely to either a single or double gang flush mount back-box of 25mm depth (min).

The kit is supplied with a 15m lead and control panel cover.
