Safety during installation
- Make sure there are no loose elements near the ventilator. If it is going to be installed in a duct, check that it is clean of any elements.
- When installing an apparatus, make sure that all the fittings are in place and that the structure which supports it is resistant enough to bear its weight at full
functioning power.
- Before manipulating the apparatus, make sure the mains supply is disconnected, even if the machine is switched off.
- Check that the mains supply voltage and frequency values coincide with the stipulations on the characteristics plate.
- Please follow the connections diagram for the electrical connections.
- If an earth connection is necessary, check that it correctly connected and that adequate thermal and overloading protection has been connected and adjusted
to the corresponding limits.
- If a ventilator is installed in a duct, the duct must be exclusively used for the purpose of the ventilation system. Starting up.
Before starting up the machine, make sure that:
- The apparatus is well secured and the electrical connections have been carried out correctly.
- The safety devices have been adequately connected.
- No loose material or fitting remains surrounds the ventilator.
If the ventilator has been mounted in a duct, make sure it is clear of loose material.
- The earth fittings are adequately connected.
- The electrical safety devices are correctly connected, adequately adjusted and ready for use.
- The wire and electrical connections inputs are correctly sealed and water-tight.
Frequency converter drives (VSD)
- Dimensioning
Check manufacturer instruction manual
-Speed
Not exceed Hz specified in fan plate.
-Insulation protection
The isolation system and possible filters must be selected according to the used voltage and VSD selected.
-Cabling, grounding and EMC
The used VSD provoke a higher demand on cabling and grounding systems. To fulfil EMC Directive, cabling and gland mounting must fulfil with this Directive.
Check manufacturer instruction manual.
When starting up the machine, make sure that:
- The propeller turns in the correct direction.
- There are no abnormal vibrations.
- If any of the electrical safety devices blow, the apparatus must be quickly disconnected from the mains supply. The whole installation should be carefully
checked before trying to start up the machine again.
Maintenance
- Before servicing the ventilator, make sure it is disconnected from the mains supply even if it has previously been switched off. Prevent the possibility of anyone
else connecting it while it is being serviced.
- The apparatus must be regularly inspected. These inspections should be carried out bearing in mind the machine's working conditions, in order to avoid dirt or
dust accumulating on the propeller, turbine, motor or grids. This could be dangerous and perceptibly shorten the unit working life.
- Whilst cleaning, great care should be taken not to tamper with the propeller or turbine.
- All maintenance and repair work should be carried out in strict compliance with each country's current safety regulations.
Lubrication
The motors are delivered with enough grease to work in normal temperatures. Do not exceed maximum temperature labelled in the motor plate.
If it is necessary, lubrication periods and grease quantity are specifyed in the motor manufacturer instruction manual.
The use of VSD affects the temperature that ball bearings reach. So, in that case, these lubrication intervals should be reduced.
Recycling
In accordance with EEC Standards and our responsibility for future generations, we are obliged to recycle all the materials we can. Therefore, please deposit all
waste material and packaging in their corresponding recycling containers and hand in the replaced units to the nearest handler of this type of waste product.
