Before starting the fan you must know what is described 

above and rely on skilled professionals who are aware of 

all the problems related to explosion-proof environments 

(ATEX).

In addition to this manual, consider all the requirements 

and information described in the basic manual for your 

model of the fan.

CHECKS wITH THE FAN STATIONARy

Make sure before commissioning that the constructive class of the fan is suitable 

for the environment in which it will be used (internal and external class).

Some checks, controls and/or procedures to be performed 

are closely linked.

You cannot do anything without considering the problems 

derived or related to it.

- Some checks need to be carried out in different situations and periods of the 

life of the fan and the procedures are described in the MAINTENANCE chapter 

under the INSPECTIONS heading.

In the case of fans equipped with an inspection door you can inspect the inside 

of the fan.

For fans not equipped with an inspection door for the internal inspection, remove 

the ducts and if necessary the transmission motor unit.

- Check by rotating the impeller manually and very slowly for there to be no 

interference between the impeller and the nozzle. 

Perform the "Check the distance between the impeller 

and nozzle (air gap)" procedure described in the relevant 

chapter.

 

- Inspect the fan from the outside and inside so as to check its integrity, that there 

are no foreign bodies, dirt, faults, etc.

- Verify the integrity of the seals, near the crankshaft passage as well as on the 

ducts next to the fan.

- Where applicable, connect the temperature, vibration and rotation speed moni-

toring devices, according to that described herein and in the reference technical 

documentation, in particular to setting the control thresholds properly.

- Make sure that all the earths of the fan are connected properly. Once this is 

done take the measurement of the earth resistance.
