Store the fan in a dry, weather-protected place and cover with a tarpaulin to protect it from dust and
soiling.

Installation, configuration
Before installation, check whether all the locking screws (including the motor
screws) are tightened properly.
Check the electrical connections if wired at the factory
.
Before installation, check that there are no foreign bodies in the coil or in the
intake and pressure connections.
The fan must be installed at a location provided and prepared by the customer and must be secured and
connected in such a way that any possible vibration occurring can be absorbed by the vibration dampers
supplied by COLASIT.
If no ducting is foreseen on the intake side, the intake connection should be protected by a sturdy protective
grating (10mm mesh) to be provided by the customer.
Connection ducting on the pressure side must be routed to prevent the backflow of foreign bodies, rainwater
or condensate into the fan. To ensure this, please use the COLASIT condensate drain nozzles.
Due to the possibility of noise nuisance, we recommend that the fan should not be installed in the
immediate vicinity of workplaces.
