All fans are designed and manufactured in accordance with EC Direc-
tive. Safety guard accessories are available from S&P if required due
to specifi c installation.
This instruction manual is subject to modifi cations due to further
technical developments of the fan described, images and drawings
may be simplifi ed representations. Due to improvements and modi-
fi cations the fan operated may differ from the representations. We
reserve the right to vary the product without prior notice.
Working ambient temperature for fan equipment should not be excee-
ded, typically this will be within -20°C to +40°C, unless stated otherwi-
se.
Allow safe access to fan for inspection, maintenance, replacement of
parts, cleaning / housekeeping.
The user is responsible for effective maintenance, replacement of
parts, cleaning, especially where dust may form inside the fan.
Do not remove safety protection guards or open access doors when
the fan is in operation.
If the fan is used in atmospheres with more than 95% Relative Humi-
dity (RH), consult the S&P Technical Service fi rst.
If the fan is used to extract air from premises where a boiler or other
combustion appliance is installed, make sure that the room has suffi -
cient air intakes to ensure adequate combustion.
The following risks have been identifi ed for consideration:
Installation: incorrect installation or function represents a risk to sa-
fety.
Rotational speed: identifi ed on fan name plate and motor. Never ex-
ceed this speed.
Rotation of impeller: identifi ed on fan with direction arrows. Do not
run impeller in reverse.
Working temperature: identifi ed on fan nameplate and motor. Never
exceed this range.
Foreign bodies: ensure no risk from debris, or material that could be
drawn into fan.
Electrical risks: motor name plate data should never be exceeded,
effective connection to earth, and all checked regularly every 6 mon-
ths.
Protection devices: These should always be operational and never
disconnected. However, Emergency ventilation fan and motors are
suitable for S1 duty cycle, and one off emergency smoke operation
8
no motor protection devices must stop this. The fan motor power su-
pply must be designed to accommodate any motor protection devi-
ces, where applicable, for S1 duty cycle and these must be disabled
or by-passed in event of one off emergency smoke operation. Power
supply cables to fan motor must be suitable for temperature and
time stated when installed in potential fi re area. Power supply should
be via a protected source to enable fan to run under emergency fi re
smoke conditions, Direct on line.
Emergency ventilation fans, can be dual purpose, or dedicated Emer-
gency operation. If fan is not operated for long periods then fan should
be run as prescribed by local regulations, or as minimum 15 minutes
each month, to ensure safe operation
TRANSPORT, LIFTING
Fan equipment and packaging are protected from adverse atmosphe-
re, especially water, sand, dust, vibration and excessive temperature.
The packaging used for this fan has been designed to support normal
transporting conditions.
The fan must always be transported in its original packaging. Do not
accept delivery if the fan is not in its original packaging or shows clear
signs of having been damaged.
Do not place heavy weights on the packaging and avoid impact da-
mage.
Any lifting equipment must be safe and of suitable capacity for weight
and size. Special attention may be required to ensure fan assembly
does not distort or tilt as weight distribution may vary.
When Fan equipment is carefully lowered or placed on a surface, be
it temporary, during lifting, positioning, storage or permanent, this
must be a fl at surface to avoid distortion of fan casing or fan assembly.
STORAGE
Storage must be in a safe, fl at, controlled environment to prevent da-
mage, especially from water, sand, dust, moisture, corrosion, tem-
perature. Recommend that duct connections (infl ow and outfl ow) are
closed to avoid dust/debris entering the equipment.
These data may also apply to an installed fan, which is not put into
operation for extended period.
INSTALLATION
Fan equipment should be electrically isolated and locked out before
any work started.
Before any installation work is started, ensure that fan equipment is
correct for application. Location for installation is solid, level, fl at and
suitable for mounting fan assembly.
Fan should be located in position, and assembled with any accessory
equipment supplied, on relevant mounting, anti-vibration mountings,
safety protection guards, on a solid level base to avoid any distortion
and misalignment and with correct air direction as shown on name-
plate. Fan should then be leveled on any anti-vibration mountings.
Flexible connectors must be taught to ensure no disruption to air fl ow,
especially on inlet to fan.
START UP
Check fan equipment name plate data is appropriate to the location
electrical supply, especially Voltage, Frequency, Phase, Amps, speed
are correct.
Check earth connections, electrical terminations and terminal box lid,
with any seals, if fi tted, are correct.
In compliance with Machine Directive 89/392/EU, if the fan is acces-
sible to operators and is a health and safety risk, adequate protection
must be fi tted, information for safety equipment, including guards,
can be found in S&P accessories catalogue.
Check all rotating parts have free, unobstructed movement.
