5. INSTALLATION
After fan has been delivered but before fitting and installation, check condition of the
consignment: in the event of discrepancy or damage to the machine, the manufacturer or
carrier must be informed immediately.
WARNING
Fitting and installation of the fan must be performed by specialized
personnel, in order to prevent damage to the equipment or hazards to people as a
result of faulty fitting.
Fitting the fan must be carried out according to the following stages:
•
positioning and anchoring the fan;
•
connection to the mains electricity supply;
•
operational testing and putting into operation.
5.1 Choice of site and checking installation requirements
The user is responsible for preparing an area suitable for installation of the equipment and
complying with the requirements laid down by European directives and national law governing
safety at places of work. Environmental conditions for operating the equipment are as follows:
Ambient temperature during operation
Ambient humidity during operation
-15°C / +40°C
< 90%
For operation of fan installation, a manoeuvring area must be made available that is suitable
for the fan dimensions and the chosen lifting equipment: electrical points must be provided in
the installation area for fan connection to the mains electricity supply.
Irrespective of the place of installation, suitable indelible warning signs are attached to the
fan, warning of danger and giving instructions to remain at a safe distance not to place hands
inside the shutter and not to run in proximity of the fan.
The warning signs are yellow, self-adhesive and indelible. They are fitted to the front and rear
of the fan, and marked with the numbers A-1997 and B-1997 (see fig.10).
The area adjacent to the fan in the premises from which air is being extracted must be kept
clear to allow the air to exit freely. It is also prohibited for anyone to remain in this area,
because of the presence of organic gases and dust which may be present in the airflow.
