Note:
•
The fan assembly should be placed back into the closed position as soon as
possible after opening, as this ensures correct ventilation of the frame. Failure to
do this will result in failure.
•
In practice the maximum time that a fan assembly can be left open will depend on a
number of factors such as; ambient temperature, frame loading, crosspoint
routings, etc. To ensure correct operation under all conditions the fan assemblies
should be left open for no more than 4 minutes at a time.
