Inverter control

Under fire conditions the electrical supply must not run 

through the inverter - 

The inverter must be bypassed.

Where fans are connected to frequency inverter controls

the electrical supply to the fan must bypass the inverter

under fire conditions.

Installation and Maintenance

AXUS AXR High Temperature Axial Fans

Wiring

Customer/installer wiring to the termal box located on the fan

casing.

Single Speed Units with motors rated below 4kW

Are wired for D.O.L. starting only.

For safety reasons Nuaire recommends that all Smokefoil units

are wired for D.O.L. starting.

All two speed units must be wired for D.O.L. starting.

Note: Star /Delta starting is available but must only be used

where permitted by the appropriate approval authorities

Controls

A range of matching starters / controls are available.

Contact us to discuss your specific requirements.

Please specify D.O.L.or Star / Delta.

Testing Warning!

Before carring out any test, check that no loose items, tools etc.

are left inside the unit. The fan should not be operated with 

panels removed. If this proves impractical (during testing for

example) ensure that all personnel are well clear of the unit.

Testing - 

Switch on the fan unit for a sufficiently long period to

ensure that the impeller runs correctly. Switch off during the

rundown period check for correct direction of rotation and for

evidence of any fault as follows:-

a)

Check that impeller is rotating freely with no signs

of slipping.

b)

Check direction of rotation. A single phase unit is unlikely

to be incorrect, as the unit was carefully checked at works

prior to delivery. To change the direction of rotation on

a three phase unit simply reverse any two of the supply

connections in the isolator box.
