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, grasping it

by only the blades near the hub. Strictly avoid shocks.

→ Wear safety shoes and cut-resistant safety gloves.

CAUTION
Heavy load when unpacking device

Risk of physical injury, such as back injuries.
→ Two people should work together to remove the device from

its packaging.

CAUTION
The blades of the impeller could be damaged.

→ Carefully set down the fan on a soft surface. Make sure the

blades are not subjected to load.

→ Following installation, make sure the impeller moves

easily and that the blades of the impeller are not deformed or
bent and do not catch at any point.

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.

;

Do not perform any modifications, additions or conversions on the
device. Replacing the terminal box is not permitted.

NOTE
Motor capacitor

→ The product is equipped with a motor capacitor with safety

protection class P0/S0 according to EN 60252-1. Take this
into consideration when fitting it to the end product on the
basis of applicable regulations.

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.

CAUTION
Voltage

The fan is a built-in component and has no disconnecting switch.
→ Only connect the fan to circuits that can be switched off with

an all-pole disconnection switch.

→ When working on the fan, secure the system/machine in

which the fan is installed so as to prevent it from being
switched back on.

NOTE
Water ingress into wires or cables

Water ingress at the customer end of the cable can damage the
device.
→ Make sure the end of the cable is connected in a dry

environment.

Only connect the device to circuits that can be switched off with
an all-pole disconnection switch.
