Unistrut® Mounting Kit (By Others)
IMPORTANT:
Structural Engineer of Record (SEOR)
must perform thorough evaluation of mounting structure
and determine final mounting requirements before fan
is installed. Manufacturer is not liable for any problems
that arise as the result of insufficient structure, including
(but not limited to) vibration, noise, or safety hazards.
Product warranty will be voided at manufacturer’s
discretion if structure is deemed insufficient.
Installations must comply with the following
requirements at a minimum, but SEOR may require
more stringent specifications at their discretion:
Do not install Unistrut channels using Unistrut
clamps. Unistrut channels must be directly
fastened to the building structure with a threaded
nut and bolt connection. Apply Loctite adhesive to
all hardware connections.
Do not hang or suspend Unistrut channels from
threaded rod or other hanging hardware. Unistrut
channels must rest on top of building structure
and be directly fastened to the structure with a
threaded nut and bolt connection. Apply Loctite
adhesive to all hardware connections.
Unistrut channel span lengths must not exceed
8 ft. For span lengths up to 8 ft., a minimum of 2
Unistrut channels are required.
Size of Unistrut channels must be specified by
a structural engineer. Unistrut channels must be
a minimum of 1-5/8 x 1-5/8 in. with a minimum
material thickness of 12 gauge steel. Unistrut
channels shall be sufficiently stiff to avoid harmonic
resonance excitation during fan operation
(120 RPM; +/- 20%).
