GENERAL INFORMATION

WARNING
EC Rectangular Centrifugal Fans – InlineVent
• Protection against contact must be ensured pursuant to DIN EN 13857
in the installed condition (see section 2.8)!
Contact with rotating parts must be avoided.
• A uniform inflow and free outlet must be ensured!
• When using a vented fire place (chimney) in a ventilated room, there
must be sufficient supply air for all operating conditions (consult chim-
ney sweep).
The current locally applicable regulations and laws must be observed!
1.3

Application

– Normal use:
The rectangular centrifugal fans SKR.. / KR.. EC re for conveying normal or slightly dusty (particle size < 10 µm, G4
filter upstream if necessary), less aggressive and humid air, in moderate climates and in the range of their performance
curves, see Helios sales documents / internet. Operation is only admissible with fixed installation within buildings. The
maximum admissible media and ambient temperature can be found on the type plate.
– Reasonably foreseeable misuse:
The fans are not suitable for operation under difficult conditions, such as high levels of humidity, aggressive media, long
standstill periods, heavy contamination, excessive loads due to climatic, technical or electronic influences. The same
applies for the mobile use of fans (vehicles, aircraft, ships, etc.). Usage under these conditions is only possible with
release approval from Helios, as the standard version is not suitable in this case.
– Improper, prohibited use:
Any use other than the intended use is not permitted! The conveying of solid matter or solid matter content > 10µm in
air and liquid is not permitted. Transport media, which affect the materials of the fan, and abrasive media are not per-
mitted. Use in explosive atmospheres is not permitted! Outside operation of the fan is not permitted.
1.4

Personnel qualification

m
DANGER!
The electrical connection and start-up as well as the installation, servicing and maintenance of the fan must only be
carried out by qualified electricians.
Rectangular centrifugal fans SKR.. / KR.. EC can be used by children over the age of 8 as well as persons with physical,
sensory, or mental disabilities or lack of experience and knowledge, if they are supervised or instructed with regard to the safe
use of the unit and they understand the resulting risks. Children must not play with the unit. Cleaning or user maintenance
must not be carried out by unsupervised children.
1.5 Functional safety – Emergency operation
When using the fan in an important supply function, the plant is to be designed so that emergency operation is automatically
guaranteed in case of fan failure. Suitable solutions are, for example: parallel operation of two less powerful units with a sepa-
rate electric circuit, standby fan, alarm systems and emergency ventilation systems.
1.6

Product service life

The motors are equipped with maintenance-free, permanently lubricated ball bearings. The units are designed for a ser-
vice life of at least 40,000 h, at continuous operation and constant load (S1 operation) with maximum output in the
maximum permissible ambient temperature.
2.0 Warranty claims – Exclusion of liability
All versions of this documentation must be observed, otherwise the warranty shall cease to apply. The same applies
to liability claims against Helios. The use of accessory parts, which are not recommended or offered by Helios, is not
permitted. Any possible damages are not covered by the warranty. Changes and modifications to the unit are not per-
mitted and lead to a loss of conformity, and any warranty and liability shall be excluded in this case.
2.1 Certificates - Guidelines
If the product is installed correctly and used to its intended purpose, it conforms to all applicable EU guidelines at its
date of manufacture.
2.2

Shipping

The fan is packed ex works in such a way that it is protected against normal transport strain. Carry out the shipping
carefully. It is recommended to leave the fan in the original packaging. The fan must be kept in the housing for transpor-
tation or installation. Only use appropriate lifting equipment and fastening devices.
Do not transport the fan on the connection cables, terminal box or impeller!
Do not stand under suspended loads!
