GENERAL
INFORMATION
Flat EC Centrifugal Fan Boxes – SlimVent SV EC
– The rotating parts must first come to a standstill!
– Once the rotating parts come to a standstill, a waiting time of 5 min�
must be observed, as dangerous voltages may be present due to
internal capacitors even after disconnection from the mains!
• All plant-related safety regulations must be observed! If applicable,
further country-specific regulations must also be observed!
• Protection against contact must be ensured pursuant to DIN EN 13857
in the installed condition (see section 2�9)!
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!

Application

– Normal use:
The SlimVent SV.. EC ... are suitable are suitable for conveying normal or slightly dusty (particle size < 10 μm, G4 filter
upstream if necessary), less aggressive and humid air, 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 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.

Personnel qualification

m
DANGER!
The electrical connection and commissioning as well as the installation, servicing and maintenance of the fan
must only be carried out by qualified electricians�
SlimVent SV.. EC ... fans can be used by children over the age of 8 as well as persons with physical, sensory, or mental disa-
bilities 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�6 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�7

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 40000 h with continuous operation and constant load (S1 operation) at maximum power in the maxi-
mum permissible ambient temperature.
2�1 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�2

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�3

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.
2�4

Receipt

The shipment must be checked for damage and correctness immediately upon delivery. If there is any damage,
promptly report the damage with the assistance of the transport company. If complaints are not made within the agreed
period, any claims could be lost.
