Electrical Connections
Before electrical connections are made, the supply
voltage, phase and ampere capacity must be checked
for compatibility with the fan motor. In addition, the
supply wiring must be properly fused and conform to
local and national electrical codes. If the unit is supplied
with a safety disconnect switch, ensure proper wiring
to the fan motor. Be sure the disconnect is switched to
the “OFF” position before connecting supply wires. If
no disconnect is supplied, ensure the supply wire is not
live before connection. Supply wires are then connected
to the optional safety disconnect switch (if supplied) or
motor.
NOTE
While Venco provides heavy-duty, quality products
for marine environments, routine paint touch-ups may
be required in coastal regions where salt or marine
air could damage the coating on a VJC or VJI. The
severe environment will accelerate the damage from
any scratches or chips and it is recommended that
those be repaired immediately.
