7.4. Commissioning_____________________________________________________________
Before commissioning your installed smoke exhaust fan, do the following:
Check that the smoke exhaust fan is properly and firmly fastened.
Check all seals for tightness.
Check that all electrical wiring is properly and firmly connected.
Check that the phase connection sequence and PE/neutral wiring is properly connected.
Check that the smoke exhaust fan and its connected ducting are free of foreign bodies.
Check that all protective/safety components have been installed.
If the checks are positive, start the fan and do a functional test.
When starting the smoke exhaust fan, verify the motor sense of rotation against the direction
arrow on the enclosure.
8. TRANSPORT & STORAGE CONDITIONS __________________
During transport and storage, the mcr Pasat smoke exhaust fans are placed on pallets. Do not topple or
throw the packaging during loading and transport. The smoke exhaust fans can be handled and shipped
on any means of transport, provided that they are secured against weather and elements. The smoke
exhaust fans on transport vehicles must be secured against shifting. Visually inspect each piece of
equipment following transport and handling.
Store in sheltered rooms, where:
there is no exposure to dust particulates, gases, corrosive vapours and other aggressive
chemical emissions detrimental to insulation parts and structural components of the fan and/or its
motor;
the maximum relative humidity is 80% at 20°C;
the ambient temperature does not exceed the range of – 20ºC to + 40 ºC;
no vibrations are present.
9. SAFETY MANUAL________________________________________________
Read and understand this Technical Manual before commissioning and servicing the product.
The smoke exhaust fan is not hazardous when firmly attached to a ventilation system and the ventilator
support structure.
Make the electrical connections according to the enclosed electrical wiring diagram and the guidelines in
Section 7.3. Electrical connections shall be made by personnel with relevant qualifications which have
been certified as required by current laws.
Inspect the PE wire connection of the smoke exhaust fan during the operating life.
Disconnect the smoke exhaust fan from electrical power before any inspections or checks.
CAUTION:
1. Do not clean smoke exhaust fans of deposits with pressure or steam washers.
2. Loss of seal at the fan connections or flexible ends may result in hazards due to
release of the forced medium and requires immediate replacement of leaking components.
If the equipment is malfunctioning (e.g. excessive noise, vibration and/or erratic operation is found),
disconnect the fan from electrical power supply, and call the manufacturer's technical service or an
inspection and repair contractor authorised by the manufacturer.
