1.2.9 temperature (hot surfaces)
The housing and fan elements take the temperature of transported medium. During work (e.g. as a result of compression
process) the temperature of medium, housing and fan components increase. Electric motor heat up to high temperatures
(especially when overloaded/overheated). The appropriate steps need to be made to prevent from fire and burns caused of
high temperatures.
In case of fire – to extinguish a fire use fire extinguisher approved for electrical equipment and follow
recommendation of fire department
.
1.2.10 unexpected start / connecting power supply
●Before undertaking any kind of work on fan (e.g. installation, maintenance and inspection, disassembly), it has to be completely
and reliably disconnected (isolated) from power supply (check there is no voltage). It has to be ensured, that power supply will
not be connected during work on fan and moveable parts are not moving.
Capacitor (only single phase fans) is still energized for certain period of time after turning off the power supply.
The appropriate steps need to be made in order to provide protection against electric shock and to prevent from access to electrical
components by unauthorized person.
●Fan is not equipped with control system – the connecting of power supply causes immediate start-up. The device is not
equipped with system, that would permanently shut it down in case of temporary power supply loss. It has to be ensured, that
any dangerous or unpermitted event does not occur in case of temporary loss of power supply.
Thermal sensors installed in motor (if fitted) after tripping caused by motor overheat turn back to initial state after cooling down. It has to be
ensured, that any dangerous or unpermitted event does not occur in case of action of thermal sensors and after motor cooling down.
●In case of impeller jamming – its unblocking may cause sudden movement. Appropriate steps need to be made in order to avoid impeller
jamming. In case of impeller jamming, fan need to be completely disconnected from power supply and repaired.
●After disconnecting from power supply fan still works for certain time (moveable parts are moving) as a result of energy accumulation.
1.2.11 use
Improper installation and/or use may lead to damage of the device and occurrence of dangerous situation. The unit can by installed,
maintained, dismantled and used only by qualified and authorized personnel, in accordance to safety rules and current regulations in the
country of use (including proper electrical authorization). Personnel need to be familiar with reactions caused by the fan.
Using of fan in dismantled/uncompleted state is forbidden, e.g. without junction box cover.
During the works (e.g. maintenance, installation) the fans surrounding needt to be protected from bystanders approach.
Any modifications of the unit are forbidden. Complicated maintenance work (such as dismantling the motor or impeller) need to be made by
Venture Industries Sp. z o.o. service or with it permission - according to additional guidance. Improper assembly may lead to reduce the fan
parameters, damage the unit and lead to the dangerous situation.
1.2.12 Accumulation of dust
Prevent the accumulation of dust, sediment on and inside the fan. Dirt accumulated on: grids – reduce the fan parameters; impeller – may
lose it balance; housing and motor – can reduce the cooling; hot surfaces (see 1.2.9) – may ignite.
1.2.13 explosive atmospheres
Contact of the fan with explosive atmospheres cause in ignition. It is forbidden to contact the fan with explosive atmospheres.
2. TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
2.1 transport and storage guidelines
•The fan need to be transported and stored in original packaging, without excessive shocks. The device must be protected from weather
conditions, transported and stored in dry, well ventilated, and free from substances harmful to the device areas. The fan cannot by transported
and stored in areas with fertilizers, chlorinated lime, acids and other aggressive chemicals. Fan need to be protected against foreign body
entrance.
•Protect the fan against damage (including crush). After lifting unit it need to be put slowly.
•The unit need to be lifted by housing elements. Do not lift the unit by electric elements (including eye bolt) and cover.
During lifting the
device must remain stable.
•Do not approach lifted device. In case of breaking, falling device may cause serious injury or death.
It is recommended that storage time does not exceed one year. After long storage, before installation check the fan. (section 5).
3. ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
3.1 General information
During installation follow the guidelines contained in section 1.2
The fan is a machine not ready for use (within the meaning of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/WE - before use of the device ensure
conformity with requirements of Machinery Directive 2006/42/WE. After installation the device must meet the requirements included in
EN ISO 12100, EN ISO 13857, EN ISO 13850 and EN 60204-1 standards. Additional information is included in Manufacturer Declaration
(Appendix D).
Before installation remove temporary items that protect fan during transport and storage (e.g. box, foil, inlet and outlet caps – do not remove
any guards) – Starting the fan with those items could lead to damage of the fan. Make sure that the fan is not damaged.
Ensure that there are no foreign bodies (e.g. mounting elements, tools) inside fan and near of the unit, the fan is properly secured after
installation (the cover of connection box is closed and secured, the connecting elements are properly tightened). Technical acceptance need to
be carried out in accordance with Appendix B.
