ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
DO NOT CONNECT POWER SUPPLY until fan is completly installed. Make sure electrical service to the fan
is locked in "OFF" position.
1. All units are suitable for use with solid-state speed control.
2. This unit has rotating parts and safety precautions should be exercised during installation, operation and
maintenance.
3. CAUTION: "For General Ventilation Use Only. Do Not Use To Exhaust Hazardous Or Explosive Materials And
Vapors."
4. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons-observe the following:
a. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the
factory.
b. Before servicing or cleaning, switch power off at service panel and lock service panel to prevent fan
from being switched on accidentally.
c. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.
d. The combustion airflow needed for safe operation of fuel burning equipment may be affected by this
unit's operation. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer's guidelines and safety standards such
as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the American Society of Heating,
Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and the local code authorities.
e. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wires or other hidden utilities.
f. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
g. Install fan at least five feet above the floor.
h. Acceptable for use over a bathtub or shower when installed in a GFCI protected branch circuit.
i. NEVER place a switch where it can be reached from a tub or shower.
5. WARNING! Check voltage at the fan to see if it corresponds to the motor nameplate.
GUARDS MUST BE INSTALLED WHEN FAN IS WITHIN REACH OF PERSONNEL OR WITHIN SEVEN (7) FEET
OF WORKING LEVEL OR WHEN DEEMED ADVISABLE FOR SAFETY.
Step 1.
Remove the screws securing the terminal box cover plate located on the side of the fan. All fan motor connections
are prewired to an electrical terminal strip. A
the wiring through the knockout provided on the side of the terminal box.
Step 2.
Bring incoming electrical service through the romex connector and the fan knockout. Be sure to place the
connector nut over the wiring coming into the terminal box. There are two open ports on the terminal strip.
Using a small regular screwdriver, tighten the neutral (white) wire of the incoming supply under the open
terminal strip port labelled "N". Tighten the line (black) wire of the incoming supply under the open terminal strip
port labelled "L". Since the fan motor is isolated within a plastic housing, grounding is not necessary.
Step 3.
Secure the romex connector. Secure the incoming supply with the romex connector. Replace the fan terminal
box cover. All fan motor and capacitor connections have been pre-wired from the factory. No additional fan
wiring is necessary.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If fan fails to operate, please check the following:
1. Consult wiring diagrams (page four of these instructions) to assure proper connection.
2. Check motor lead wiring, capacitor leads and incoming supply leads to assure definite contact.
3. If possible, use a meter to test for continuity across the fan motor leads. In order to do this, the capacitor
must be disconnected (do not test the capacitor - it will not meter continuity). If motor leads show continuity,
consult factory for a replacement capacitor.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Since fan bearings are sealed and provided with an internal lubricating material, no additional lubrication is
necessary.
2. When using in a dryer boosting application, DISCONNECT POWER SUPPLY and check impeller periodically
for any lint buildup.No other maintenance is necessary.
