1.0 Introduction
The Nuaire HPKF Kitchen Extract fan is designed to be
mounted on a wall within a kitchen. The unit contains two
fans, one of which runs continuously providing
‘trickle’ ventilation, and a boost speed operation which can
be triggered manually or automatically. Fig 1. shows a
general view of the unit.
The unit will exhaust through the wall (125mm dia. back
outlet) or alternatively through the adjacent ceiling (150mm
dia. top outlet).
A suitable spigot is supplied ready to fit in the users chosen
position following removal of the top knockout or back
aperture cover plate.
A washable metal grease filter is located in a recess on the
underside of the case and can easily be withdrawn for
cleaning.
LOW or HIGH ‘boost’ speed can be initiated manually by the
remote switch provided or automatically via the
integral adjustable thermostat or via an external trigger
such as ‘Cooker Miser’ (details on request).

Remote Control Switch
A remote switch is included which allows the user to select
auto or manual operation, and a high or low manual ‘boost’
speed (see fig 2).
NOTE: Caution! The control wiring carries 230V mains
voltage.
Thermostat (integral)
A thermostat control knob is located on the top face of the
unit. The range of adjustment is 0-60
o
C. The chosen
setting will dictate when the unit switches to ‘boost’ speed.
The thermostat only operates in auto mode.

switching to manual, or can permanently disable the
thermostat by removing the BROWN link wire on the
control wiring panel if desired. (see fig 4).
Setting the ‘boost’ speed (auto mode only)
In ‘auto’ mode, the preferred ‘boost’ speed can be set for
LOW (half) or HIGH (full).
Note: in ‘manual’ mode the ‘boost’ speed is fixed HIGH (full)
The wiring connection panel is located under a removable
top mounted cover plate.
The RED link wire can be relocated to change the ‘auto’
mode LOW or HIGH boost setting (see fig 4)
.
2.0 Installation
Select and mark out a suitable mounting position. Note the
clearance between the top of the unit and the ceiling must

cover.
Select a mounting position for the remote control switch as
close to the unit as is practical.
Refer to dimensions drawing and cut a suitably sized hole
in the wall (125mm dia outlet) or ceiling (150mm dia. outlet)
to allow connection to any associated ductwork (by
others).
