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.
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
- 25°C / + 50 °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.4)
.
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.
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.
The fans must be installed at a height of not less than 2.7 m from the ground.
If they are installed at a lower height, the fans must be fitted with the optional
pyramidal safety mesh by the manufacturer, to protect the internal rotor.
Failure to install the safety mesh releases the manufacturer from all liability and
shall be considered an improper use of the machine.
