MOUNTING

STEP 1
When installing in a large room like a greenhouse, barn, or garage, it is recommended that the shutter fan should be mounted on the opposite side of any ventilation openings for better air circulation. The fan should also be positioned higher in the room to exhaust out heated air, which will rise on its own due to natural convection.AC-INFINITY-AirLift-Series-Shutter-
Exhaust-Fan-System-fig-5

STEP 2
Measure the dimensions of the shutter fan’s mounting frame which will go through the wall. Select a location on the wall where you will be mounting the fan. Please make sure that the wall is free of any wires or pipes. Using the measurements of the shutter fan, use a level and ruler to draw an outline of the area to be drilled and cut.AC-INFINITY-AirLift-Series-Shutter-Exhaust-
Fan-System-fig-6

STEP 3
Depending on your mounting surface material, use the appropriate tools to cut into the wall. Use a drill or a hand saw to create an opening large enough to insert a saw blade or jigsaw inside the outlined area of the wall panel.AC-
INFINITY-AirLift-Series-Shutter-Exhaust-Fan-System-fig-7

STEP 4
Position the shutter fan through the hole cut in step 3. Use it to measure the positioning of the mounting screws then remove the fan unit. Then using a drill bit, create the four mounting holes.

STEP 5
From inside the room, position the shutter fan back into the opening of the fan. Make sure the controller connectors and power cord is on the inside of the room. Then, use the included hardware to secure the fan.

If you are using your own shutter, remove the AIRLIFT’s shutter by unscrewing the nuts and bolts from the fan guard. Reassemble the fan guard onto your existing shutter by reapplying the nuts and bolts in the same mounting locations.AC-INFINITY-AirLift-Series-Shutter-Exhaust-Fan-System-
fig-9

STEP 6
Once the fan is mounted securely you can then mount the controller using the included hardware. Place the controller near the fan in order to power the controller.AC-INFINITY-AirLift-Series-Shutter-Exhaust-Fan-System-
fig-10

POWERING

STEP 1
Locate the connector plug of the sensor probe and plug it into the bottom of the thermal controller.

STEP 2
Secure the sensor probe head nearby, preferably in the hottest area of the room. You can use the wire tie to secure the probe away from the fan blades.

STEP 3
Connect the Molex end from the fan to the bottom of the controller. AC-

STEP 4
Lastly, to power the fan and the controller, plug the fan’s power cord into an AC power outlet.AC-INFINITY-AirLift-Series-Shutter-Exhaust-Fan-System-
fig-14

DAISY CHAIN AND SETUP

The fan controller can power up to two compatible fans to share the same programming.AC-INFINITY-AirLift-Series-Shutter-Exhaust-Fan-System-
fig-15

The controller included is compatible with AC Infinity fan models that contain an EC motor. Typically, EC-motor fans will have a separate cord coming out of it for the power and the controller. The compatible fans do not need to be the same model or part of the same product series. AC-INFINITY-AirLift-Series-
