Adjusting the fan speeds

A low signal voltage is coming to the control panel and, 

therefore, the adjustment is made when the fan is turned on.

•   The adjustment is made by using the four holes 

found underneath the knob of the ventilation control 

panel (figure 2) one speed at a time, by using the 

potentiometer of the speed in question.

•   The set voltage can be measured from the measurement 

points found underneath the knob of the control panel 

(markings S and -) by using the DC voltage measuring of 

a universal meter. The adjustment range is ~2…9.5 V.

•   The control voltage (air flow) increases when the 

potentiometer is turned to the right. The preset voltages 

are 3 V,  

Set the ventilation control to 

position 1 and remove the 

knob by using a screwdriver, 

for example

Measure the voltage from 

poles – and S, set e.g. speed 

1 from potentiometer 1

Measure the voltage from 

poles – and S, set speed 2 

from potentiometer 2, etc.

There are holes for 

adjustments and 

measurements underneath 

the knob

Replace the knob, set the 

ventilation control to the next 

speed, and remove the knob 

again.

Lastly, measure the voltage of each speed from the 

measuring pins and record them in the measurement log. In 

e.g. terraced houses, the voltage measurement can be used 

to “copy” the measurement made in the first apartment to 

other similar apartments.
If the fan is only used as a cooker hood, adjust speed 1 so 

that the fan will not be turned on.

5 V, 7 V, and 9.5 V. 

Please note! Do not set the control 

voltage so low that the fan does not stop (approx. 

1.5 V).

An example of air flow adjustment:

The standard ventilation is adjusted by using speed 2 and 

with the damper closed.

•   Set the control panel to speed 2 and measure the air 

flows from the valves.

•   If the total air flow is too low, increase the control 

voltage from potentiometer 2.

•   If the total air flow is too high, decrease the control 

voltage from potentiometer 2. Do not choke the air flow 

unnecessarily by using valves!

•   Adjust the Away air flows similarly by using speed 1 

(potentiometer 1).

•   Adjust the Boost air flows similarly by using speed 3 

(potentiometer 3).

•   Speed 4 is usually reserved for the maximum speed.

Sound values have been measured at the measurement points 

of the facility curve (L) of the air fl ow graph. The values change 

very little when the pressure loss in the ducts is low and the fan 

settings remain unchanged. The sound values increase when the 

pressure loss in the ducts increase.
