3.1 Delivery check
Upon receipt, inspect the fan for external damage and if found, inform the forwarding agent without delay. Check
the data on all the rating plates, especially voltage and frequency. After placing the motor in the working position
(see section 5.1)
, turn the propeller by hand while the fan is switched off to verify smooth rotation of the propeller.
3.2 Packaging and transport of assembled fans
The fan has a self-supporting structure in galvanised steel and it is usually delivered without packaging. Upon
request fans can be delivered packed in cardboard boxes. Fans should not be permanently stocked one upon
the other, regardless if they are delivered with or without packaging. Handling of the fans should not be done
manually as the fans have no handles or grips. Consequently one of the following alternatives should be used:
•
forklift: before loading, make sure the forks are opened as much as possible to avoid bending of the fan
bottom panel;
•
crane: fix two bolts in the M8 bushes situated on the sides of the fan housing and hook the lifting cable over
the bolts.
3.3 Structure
The fans consist of the following components:
•
fan housing in galvanised steel without welding spots;
•
propeller with four blades in stainless or galvanised steel; blades are fixed to the propeller by high-strength
pop rivets;
•
motor: single-phase or three-phases; 50 or 60 Hz; B3 form; F class winding insulation, IP 55 IEC protective
class; asynchronous single-speed;
•
pyramidal shape and flat meshes for protection on back and front side;
•
wall/column mounting system with tilting mechanism (optional extra); to be used when the fan needs to be
mounted next to a wall or column;
•
tilting mechanism with chain (optional extra); to be used when the fan needs to be suspended from the roof
of the structure.
Before using
3.
Make sure a steel cable or rope of adequate size is being used when the fan is
lifted by crane. Fan weights are shown in the technical specification table
(see
section 7.2)
