Unpacking

Check that the product is complete. The package should
contain:
- extraction fan in housing
- key
- strain relief
If parts are missing or damaged, contact your supplier.
4.2 Installation
It is recommended to mount the fan on an optional
mounting frame.
Place the fan in such a way, that the inspection cover
remains accessible for maintenance works.
Align the inlet of the fan preferably with the outlet of
the connected filter system.
The fan can be positioned in the following ways:
- using a fork-lift truck (preferred way);
- hoisting it using the eye bolts mounted on top of the fan inside
the housing. For this purpose, remove the top cover of the
housing.
To mount the fan, proceed as follows.
• Position the fan.
• Connect the inlet of the fan to the outlet of the filter system.
If necessary, use reducers metric to imperial to make the
connection fit.
ATTENTION!
In case the fan is not placed directly next to the filter
system, make sure the connection duct is sufficiently
supported.
