vetus FAN12 Permanent Ventilator
Introduction
The VETUS electric ventilator, type FAN, is intended for ventilating accommodation rooms, bedrooms and toilets and for extracting warm air from a refrigerator on board a ship. The fan is virtually silent with a very low current consumption and is fitted with a two-speed switch.
Warning
In order to prevent personal injury, the electricity should always be
disconnected during installation and maintenance. Never use the fan where the
ambient temperature exceeds 70º C (158 degrees F).
Take Care!
As supplied, the fan will blow air from the inside to the outside, see Drawing
- It is possible to reverse this airflow (from outside to inside) by turning the fan with its housing round in its plastic casing. See Drawing 2.
Installation
Fit the fan on the wall or ceiling. It can be mounted either horizontally or
vertically. Drill or saw a 75 mm. (3”) diameter hole in the ceiling or wall.
Glue the self-adhesive gasket supplied to the flange on the fan blade housing.
Drill the holes for the bolts or screws using the fan as a guide. Fix the fan
with 3 bolts or screws. Tighten up evenly, but not so tight that the plastic
cap cracks. The fan can also be fitted under an (existing) Vetus deck
ventilator (type Ufo, Ufo-Trans, Goofy, or Scirocco).
Electrical connections
Check the onboard voltage is the same as that stated on the fan (12 or 24 V). Connect up the fan as shown in the wiring diagram. Install the + wire and 500 mA (for 12 Volts) or 250 mA (for 24 Volts) fuse. The fan is protected against incorrect connection.
