  •  Shielded, Pass-Through RJ45 Connectors (25)
Hardware/Tools Needed (Not Included):
  •  Fan Control (1, optional)
  •  CAT-5e Termination Tool

  1.  Determine required length of CAT-5e cable run. 

Unspool appropriate amount of cable and cut to 
length.

IMPORTANT:

 Individual CAT-5e cable lengths must 

not exceed 200 ft. in order to prevent network 
communication issues.
  2.  Strip and remove 2 in. of CAT-5e cable jacket 

leaving the foil shield intact. 

  3.  Fold foil shield back over cable jacket and trim foil

Power Wiring Installation

DANGER

Always disconnect, lock and tag power source before 
installing or servicing. Failure to disconnect power 
source can result in fire, shock or serious injury.

DANGER

Pour écarter les risques d’incendie, de choc électrique 
ou de blessure grave, veiller à toujours débrancher, 
verrouiller et étiqueter la source de courant avant 
l’installation ou l’entretien.

IMPORTANT: 

Do not connect power until mechanical 

installation, fire alarm relay installation, communication 
wiring and fan control installation are complete.

IMPORTANT: 

Do not apply power to the fan above 

the rated voltage of the variable frequency drive (VFD). 
Failure to comply with this warning will result in voiding 
of the product warranty and may result in permanent 
damage to the VFD and motor.

IMPORTANT: 

To prevent electrical failures, source 

power must comply with the following power quality 
requirements. If source power falls outside of these 
specified tolerances, an external power line filter will be 
required (by others). If other power quality issues are 
present, contact the factory for support.

Allowable Voltage 

Fluctuation

+/- 10% of nominal

Allowable Frequency 

Fluctuation

+/- 5% of nominal (47-63 Hz)

Area of Use

Do not install fans in electrical environments 
with Pollution higher than Degree 2 in 
accordance with UL 61800-5-1

Surge Immunity

Do not install fans in electrical environments 
above Installation Class 3 in accordance 
with IEC 61000-4-5

Hardware/Tools Needed (Not Included):
  •  Phillips Screwdriver

With Optional Electrical Plug 

  1.   If the fan is supplied with the optional electrical 

plug for power wiring, refer to the chart below for 
the corresponding receptacle that will be needed 
(provided by others).
