Regard the following points when powering up the fan:
-
Close the damper (such as throttle damper or shut-off
damper) to alleviate the power-up phase
- A sufficient level of acceleration torque must be
available throughout the entire period of the power-up
phase up to nominal speed
DANGER
Bursting of the fan, ejection of parts!
Fatalities or extremely serious injuries as a result of
exceeding the maximum speed.
→ Never exceed the maximum speed specified on the
nameplate of the fan.
Observe and record the following parameters:
