The Sentinel Kinetic Range incorporates:
A wholehouse heat recovery system with up to 92% energy efficiency. An easily accessible heat recovery cube protected by two removable EU3 filters. Two Lo-Carbon Energy Saving EC DC fans ensure 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.


Lo-Carbon Sentinel Kinetic meets the latest requirements of the Building Regulations Document F 2006 for wholehouse system ventilation: System 4. Continuous mechanical supply and extract with heat recovery. The Lo-Carbon Sentinel Kinetic models have 3 fully adjustable speeds and a purge setting - maximum. On the front of the unit is a digital controller that can be used to pre-set the speeds to any required air-flow within the performance range.

Integral Humidity sensor The integral humidity sensor 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. Night time relative humidity setback feature suppresses nuisance tripping as humidity gradually increases with falling temperature. Acoustically lined - low noise levels from only 20dB(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. The optional Vent-Wise controller senses 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. Switched-live for boosting via light switches (220-240 V 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 and 10 minutes, after a light switch has been activated.
Delay-Off allows the Boost airflow to continue after a light switch is turned off to ensure effective clearance of humidity. This timer is adjustable between 0 and 25 minutes.


Purge setting The unit can be set to maximum flow (100%) by pressing and holding the Boost button on the unit itself or optional wireless controller for 5 seconds. Purge will continue for two hours unless cancelled by pressing the Boost button again.

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.
Anti-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 temperatures below 0°C.

Cooker Hood System range System canopy hoods are a motorless hood with extract being provided by the MVHR unit. When the boost button on the canopy is activated, the MVHR unit goes to boost setting and the summer bypass opens preventing cooking by-products entering the heat exchanger cell.

Wired Remote Controller (option) Supplied with 15 metres of cable (max length), the Wired Remote Controller duplicates all the features of the on-board control panel, allowing commissioning, diagnosis and user control. Flush mounting, suitable for a single gang patrass box 16mm deep.
