IMPORTANT: READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE COMMENCING THE INSTALLATION
DO NOT install this product in areas where the following may be present or
occur:
- Excessive oil or a grease laden atmosphere.
- Corrosive or flammable gases, liquids or vapours.
- Ambient temperatures higher than 40°C or less than –5°C.
- Possible obstructions which would hinder the access or removal of the Fan.

SAFETY AND GUIDANCE NOTES
A. All wiring to be in accordance with the current I.E.E. Regulations, or the
appropriate standards of your country and MUST be installed by a suitably
qualified person.
B. The Fan should be provided with a local double pole isolator switch having
a contact separation of at least 3mm.
C. Ensure that the mains supply (Voltage, Frequency, and Phase) complies with
the rating label.
D. The Fan should only be used in conjunction with the appropriate Vent-Axia
products.
E. It is recommended that the connection to the fan connecter terminals is
made with flexible cable.
F. When the Fan is used to remove air from a room containing a fuel-burning
appliance, precautions must be taken to avoid back-flow of gases into the room
from the open flue of gas or other appliance. Ensure that the air replacement
is adequate for both the fan and the fuel-burning appliance.
G. The Fan should not be used where it is liable to be subject to direct water
spray for prolonged periods of time.
H. Where ducted Fans are used to handle moisture-laden air, a condensation
trap should be fitted. Horizontal ducts should be arranged to slope slightly
downwards away from the Fan.
I. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
J. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
K. Always operate the fan with the flow of air in the correct direction, see
the marking on the fan rating label.
INSTALLATION.
The unit is designed as an in-line duct fan to be positioned between lengths
of ducting. Short duct runs terminating close to the fan (i.e. within 1.5m)
must incorporate suitable guards unless the fan is mounted higher than 2.1m
above the floor. If flexible ducting is used it should be fully extended to
obtain the best results. Position the fan at the highest point on the system
with both ducting runs sloping downwards from this point. In circumstances
where an excessive amount of moisture is present in the air then a
condensation trap should be installed. When siting the appliance ensure that
there is sufficient space to allow access for any servicing and maintenance.
The eco mixed flow in-line fans can be mounted in any position, For mounting
the units we recommend using anti-vibration mounts and a flexible connector
kit to reduce noise transmission into the ducting system. (Available from
Vent-Axia)
WIRING.
WARNING : THE FAN AND ANCILLARY CONTROL EQUIPMENT MUST BE ISOLATED FROM THE POWER SUPPLY DURING THE INSTALLATION / OR MAINTENANCE.
- Remove terminal box cover & screws and put to one side.(Single phase fans only, 3 phase fans are factory fitted with a lead).
- Select and follow the wiring diagram that relates to your fan.
- Check all connections have been made correctly and ensure all terminal connections and cable glands/clamps are securely fastened.
- The cable entry must be made using the cable grommet provided
- Replace terminal box cover & screws. (Single phase fans only)
- Ensure the impeller rotates and is free from obstructions.
Select the wiring diagram that relates to your fan
(Note:- // relates to fan control & protection, see back page for
details.
MOTOR PROTECTION & CONTROL
May only be operated with frequency converter (max.230V)
Thermo contact must be connected to external tripping unit. The internal
thermal is not suitable to protect the motor during a blockage. I.e. in cases
where a motor blockage can occur, a motor protection switch with corresponding
rated current should be prefixed. Ideally, we recommend to use a protection
switch with thermal and magnetic release.
We only recommend frequency converters with sinusoidal filters.
SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE.
-
At intervals appropriate to the installation, the fan should be inspected and cleaned to ensure there is no build
up of dirt or other deposits. -
When cleaning the fan impeller take care not to move or remove the balance weights.
-
Under no circumstances should the interior be cleaned with water.
-
By installing an air filter in the system, the cleaning interval can be considerably extended.
The Eco Mixed Flow (eMF) fan has sealed for life bearings, which do not require lubrication.
