4. CONNECTION AND START-UP

4.1 Connecting the mechanical system

CAUTION

Cutting and crushing hazard when removing the fan

from the packaging

→ Carefully remove the device from its packaging, holding it

by the centre of the blades only. Make sure to avoid any

shock.

→ Wear safety shoes and cut-resistant safety gloves.

CAUTION

The blades of the impeller could be damaged.

→ Set down the fan carefully on a soft surface. Make sure the

blades are not subjected to load.

→ After installation, make sure the impeller moves easily

and that the blades of the impeller are not deformed or bent

and do not catch anywhere.

NOTE

Damage to device from vibration

Bearing damage, reduced service life
→ Forces or impermissibly high vibration levels must not be

transmitted to the fan from system components.

→ If the fan is connected to air ducts, it should isolated from

vibrations, for example using compensators or similar

elements.

→ Fasten the fan to the substructure without distorting it.

;

Check the device for transport damage. Damaged devices must no

longer be installed.

;

Install the undamaged device according to your application.

;

Do not make any modifications, additions or renovations to 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

Possibility of damage to the device

Serious damage may result if the device slips during assembly.
→ Keep the device fixed in position at the installation location

until all attachment screws have been tightened.

The fan must not be strained on fastening.

4.2 Connecting the electrical system

DANGER

Electric voltage on the device

Electric shock
→ Always install a protective earth first.
→ Check the protective earth.

DANGER

Incorrect insulation

Risk of fatal injury from electric shock
→ Use only cables that meet the specified installation

requirements for voltage, current, insulation material, load etc.

→ Route cables such that they cannot be touched by any

rotating parts.

DANGER

Electrical load (>50 µC) between mains wire and

protective earth connection after switching of the supply

when switching multiple devices in parallel.

Electric shock, risk of injury
→ Make sure that sufficient protection against accidental contact

is provided.

Before working on the electrical connection, the

connections to the mains supply and PE must be shorted.

CAUTION

Electrical voltage

The fan is a built-in component and features no electrically

isolating switch.
→ Only connect the fan to circuits that can be switched off with

an all-pole separating switch.

→ When working on the fan, you must switch off the

installation/machine in which the fan is installed and secure it

from being switched on again.

NOTE

Water penetration into leads or wires

Water enters at the cable end on the customers side and can

damage the device.
→ Make sure that the cable end is connected in a dry

environment.

Connect the device only to circuits that can be switched off

using an all-pole disconnecting switch.

4.2.1 Prerequisites

;

Check that the data on the type plate match the connection data.

;

If the operating capacitor is not installed by ebm-papst, check whether

the data of the operating capacitor match the data on the type plate.

;

Before connecting the device, ensure that the supply voltage matches

the operating voltage of the device.

;

Only use cables designed for current according to the type plate.

For determining the cross-section, follow the basic principles in

accordance with EN 61800-5-1. The protective earth must have a

cross-section equal to or greater than the outer conductor cross-

section.

We recommend the use of 105°C cables. Ensure that the minimum

cable cross-section is at least

AWG26/0.13 mm².
