General 

In this manual, you will find information regarding: 

 

Venturi Valve (VV) specifications 

 

How to install the VV with Constant Volume, Variable 
Volume, and Two Position (2P) Switch 

 

Detailed description of all options available for each setup  

 

Safety Precautions 

1.

 

Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by 
qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes 
and standards, including fire-rated construction. 

2.

 

When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage 
electrical wiring and other hidden utilities. 

3.

 

Use this unit only in the manner intended by the 
manufacturer. 

4.

 

Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at 
service panel and lock service panel to prevent power from 
being switched on accidentally.  

5.

 

Protect flammable materials nearby when brazing, use 
flame and head protection barriers where needed. Always 
have a fire extinguisher ready. 

6.

 

The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for personal 
injury or property damage resulting from improper handling, 
installation, service or operation of the product.  

 

Caution to Contractors 

Venturi Valves are not intended for use as temporary heat or 
ventilation sources during building construction. The units are 
not designed nor equipped to operate in a dusty construction 
environment. Internal parts can become coated in construction 
dust, resulting in loss of calibration and excess wear on the 
product which in turn can contribute to reduced life.

This mark indicates an important point for the proper 
function of the Venturi Valve. Improper setup may 
cause unit failure. Pay close attention to all caution 
points throughout this manual.
