A minimum of 1 metre of duct at least the same diameter as the fan spigots diameter is to be fitted to the fan inlet and discharge
spigots. Fans can be pushed directly into the duct and fastened. Make sure the ducting system is not deformed or twisted. For
mounting, we recommend using cushioned fast clamps to reduce noise transmission into the ducting system. This requires a tool
for fixing.
4.5
Minimum 150mm clearance between the fan and the surrounding structure should be reserved. See dimensional data section 7.
4.6
Unit is pre-fitted with mains lead and UK 3-pin plug for ease of connection, for alternative connection refer to 4.7.
4.7
Each VL unit comes pre-fitted with an M20 cable gland, tightened to the terminal box to 50N force. Suitable for receiving a
HO5VV-F 3 x 0.5-1.5mm² cable between 7mm minimum diameter and 10mm maximum diameter. Strip the cable outer sheath
exposing the individual cable cores. Leaving sufficient space for the cables to be separated and fixed into the terminal strip
connections. Strip each individual core back 10mm, exposing the cable.
Ensure the dome cap is tightened enough that the cable is securely clamped and cannot move.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to
avoid hazards.
4.9
Check the details on the motor rating plate to ensure that the correct power supply (voltage, frequency and phase) is available.
An incorrect power supply will lead to permanent damage to the fan motor.
5.
Start-up
5.1
Before power is supplied to the unit, check that the wiring is correct as per the fan connection diagram.
5.2
At initial start-up, check that impeller rotation and airflow direction is correct.
5.3
Check that the motor amperage draw does not exceed the nameplate rating.
6.
Fan Maintenance
6.1
Inspection of the fan at least once every 12 months is recommended to ensure that the motor, fan blades, and supporting guards,
are clean. Any build up of dust and deposits on the blades or guards should be removed using a non-abrasive cleaner.
6.2
All fastenings should be checked for tightness. In addition, all rotating items should be checked.
6.3
Bearings are of the ‘sealed for life’ type and will not need a detailed inspection.
