Protection class
assignment
I; If a protective earth is connected by
the customer
This component for installation may
have several local protection classes.
This information relates to this
component’s basic design.
The final protection class is based on
the component’s intended installation and
connection.
Conformity with
standards
EN 61800-5-1; CE; UKCA
Approval
CSA C22.2 No. 77 + CAN/CSA-
E60730-1; EAC; UL 1004-7 + 60730-1
;
Use the device in accordance with its degree of protection.
Information on surface quality
The surfaces of the products conform to the generally applicable industrial
standard. The surface quality may change during the production period.
This has no effect on strength, dimensional stability and dimensional
accuracy.
The color pigments in the paints used perceptibly react to UV light over
the course of time. The product is to be protected against UV radiation to
prevent the formation of patches and fading. Changes in color are not a
reason for complaint and are not covered by the warranty. UV radiation
in the frequency range and the intensity of natural solar radiation has no
effect on the technical properties of the products.
3.5 Mounting data
Any further mounting data required can be taken from the product
drawing or Section Chapter 4.1 Mechanical connection.
Strength class of
screws
8.8
For screw clearance, see Chapter 3.1 Product drawing
;
Secure the screws against unintentional loosening (e.g. use self-
locking screws).
3.6 Transport and storage conditions
Max. permitted
ambient temp. for
motor (transport/
storage)
+80 °C
Min. permitted
ambient temp. for
motor (transport/
storage)
-40 °C
3.7 Electromagnetic compatibility
If several devices are connected in parallel on the supply side
so that the line current of the arrangement is in the range 16 - 75
A, this arrangement conforms to IEC 61000-3-12, provided that
the short-circuit power S
sc at the connection point of the
customer system to the public power grid is greater than or
equal to 250 times the rated output of the arrangement. It is the
responsibility of the installation engineer or operator/owner of the
device to ensure, if necessary after consultation with the
network operator, that this device is only connected to a
connection point with an S
sc value greater than or equal to 250
times the rated output of the arrangement.
4. CONNECTION AND STARTUP
4.1 Mechanical connection
CAUTION
Cutting and crushing hazard when removing fan from
packaging
→ Carefully remove the device from its packaging, by the fan
impeller. Strictly avoid shocks.
→ Wear safety shoes and cut-resistant safety gloves.
NOTE
Damage to the device from vibration
Bearing damage, shorter service life
→ The fan must not be subjected to force or excessive vibration
from sections of the installation.
→ If the fan is connected to air ducts, the connection should
be isolated from vibration, e.g. using compensators or similar
elements.
→ Ensure stress-free attachment of the fan to the
substructure.
;
Check the device for transport damage. Damaged devices are not to
be installed.
;
Install the undamaged device in accordance with your application.
CAUTION
Possible damage to the device
If the device slips during installation, serious damage can result.
→ Ensure that the device is securely positioned at its place of
installation until all fastening screws have been tightened.
●
The fan must not be strained on fastening.
4.2 Electrical connection
DANGER
Voltage on the device
Electric shock
→ Always connect a protective earth first.
→ Check the protective earth.
DANGER
Faulty insulation
Risk of fatal injury from electric shock
→ Use only cables that meet the specified installation
regulations for voltage, current, insulation material, capacity,
etc.
→ Route cables so that they cannot be touched by any
rotating parts.
DANGER
Electrical charge (>50 µC) between phase conductor and
protective earth connection after switching off supply
with multiple devices connected in parallel.
Electric shock, risk of injury
→ Ensure sufficient protection against accidental contact.
Before working on the electrical hookup, short the supply
and PE connections.
