1 PRICE RegenCore HIGH EFFECTIVENESS ENERGY RECOVERY

2 PRC / PRCLC PRICE REGENCORE The Price RegenCore is a high effectiveness energy recovery unit. The RegenCore recovers sensible energy during both heating and cooling seasons, and under select conditions, RegenCore also recovers latent energy. The new regenerating core product sets itself apart from other recovery devices with its fully tested design, industry leading effectiveness of up to 90% and no pre-heat requirement down to outdoor temperatures of -40 C/F. PRC and PRCLC units are available in a wide range of sizes to accommodate each unique project s airflow requirements. The PRC s wide range of available airflows combined with its indoor and outdoor designs make it suitable for a multitude of applications. The PRCLC is a lighter duty unit for indoor use is an ideal option for use in compact spaces. 2 RegenCore For more information visit

3 INDUSTRY LEADING TEST FACILITIES Price RegenCore units are tested to the highest industry standards via the Price Environmental Chamber. The chamber maintains temperatures ranging from -40 C/F to +40 C (104 F) and is paired with a Price Mechanical custom air handling unit to simulate building return air by heating or cooling and introducing humidity. The chamber, air handling unit, and instrumentation allow for precise energy balances and accurate efficiency measurement making Price RegenCore the industry s only product with fully tested indoor and outdoor performance data. TYPICAL APPLICATIONS The Price RegenCore has excellent owner payback when used in most applications: education facilities, sportsplex facilities, commercial office buildings, multi-story residential buildings, banks, warehouses, car dealerships and casinos.

6 PRC OPERATING MODES Energy Recovery There are two stages to the energy recovery process. Below is an explanation of typical operation during winter conditions: Cycle A: shows core 1 storing heat from return air being exhausted from the building. Core 2 is releasing the heat previously stored to condition the colder outdoor air to supply air. Cycle B: During the cycle, dampers are re-positioned so the inverse occurs. Now core 1 is releasing heat it captured and stored during the cycle A. Core 2 is now recovering heat from the exhaust air. Core 1 Return Supply Core 2 Energy Recovery Cycle A Core 1 Return Supply Core 2 Energy Recovery Cycle B 6 RegenCore For more information visit

7 Standby The standby mode positions the dampers to isolate the building from outdoor conditions. Core 1 Return Supply Core 2 Economizer The economizer mode suspends the re-positioning of the dampers & energy recovery to use outdoor air for cooling. During this mode the dampers will reposition every 3 hours to self-clean the cores. Core 1 Return Supply Core 2 Recirculation (Optional) The recirculation mode positions the dampers to recirculate building air when the space is not occupied. Additional dampers are required for this mode. Core 1 Return Supply Core 2 For more information visit RegenCore 7
