¾
VDLSL1
: 1 litre of standard smoke liquid
¾
VDLSL5
: 5 litres of standard smoke liquid
¾
VDLSL5H
: 5 litres of high density smoke liquid
¾
VDLSLHT5
: 5 litres of professional high density smoke liquid
•
Procedure:
1. Make sure the device is switched off and disconnected from the mains.
2. Unscrew the cap of the tank (figure above #4) on the top of the device.
3. Carefully pour the smoke liquid in the tank.
4. Reposition the cap and fasten it.
Remark: Do not operate the device when the tank is open.
b. Fuse
•
Only fit or replace a fuse when the device is unplugged from the mains.
•
Replace a blown fuse with a fuse of the same type and rating (see “
Technical Specifications
”):
1. Make sure the device is switched off and disconnected from the mains.
2. Unscrew the fuse holder at the back with an appropriate screwdriver.
3. Remove the old fuse and install a new one.
4. Replace the fuse holder and fasten it with the screwdriver.
c. Mounting the Device
•
Have the device installed by a qualified person, respecting EN 60598-2-17 and all other applicable
norms.
•
The construction to which the device is attached should be able to support 10 times the weight of the
device for one hour without deformation.
•
The installation must always be secured with a secondary attachment e.g. a safety cable (
VDLSC7
/
VDLSC8
).
•
Never stand directly below the device when it is being mounted, removed or serviced. Have a qualified
technician check the device once a year and once before you bring it into service.
•
Install the device in a location with few passers-by that is inaccessible to unauthorised persons.
•
Overhead mounting requires extensive experience: calculating workload limits, determining the
installation material to be used… Have the material and the device itself checked regularly. Do not
attempt to install the device yourself if you lack these qualifications as improper installation may result
in injuries.
•
Adjust the desired inclination angle via the mounting bracket and tighten the bracket screws.
•
Make sure there is no flammable material within a 0.5m radius of the device.
•
Have a qualified electrician carry out the electric connection.
•
The installation has to be approved by an expert before the device is taken into service.
5. Use
Make sure the power switch is set to OFF. Connect the device to the mains. Flick the power switch to ON.
After a certain warm-up time (3 to 4 minutes), the device is ready to be used.
Use the button on the remote control to select continuous smoke output. The stand-by lamp may be off
and the smoke emission may stop even though you are holding the button – this means the device is
heating up again and will be ready to operate in approximately 2 minutes. This process guarantees an
optimum vaporization temperature and the best possible smoke emission.
