MANUAL CODE AF1802X1
FAN SPECIFICATIONS
CASE SIZE
Square axial fans come in the standard sizes set by the industry. They are
commonly quoted with millimeters in the format length time height times width.
A case size measuring 120 mm tall, 120 mm long, and 38 mm wide may be quoted
as 120 x 120 x 38 mm.
CURRENT AND VOLTAGE
Fans designed to be powered by alternating current are known as AC fans. They
are available
in two voltage ranges, 100 to 125V, and 200 to 240V. A fan rated between 100
to 125V can be powered by household outlets in the US, which run at around
120V AC.
CONNECTORS
AC fans usually have terminal or wires as its power connector, located on the
edges of its case. Terminals are two metal prongs which can be attached to a
cord such as a power plug. Wire connectors, also known as leads are directly
wired to the power source.
SPEED
Some applications demand a high airflow while others require minimal noise. To
meet these requirements, fans are available in different speeds rated in RPM
or rotations per minute. Given the same fan size, a higher RPM is correlated
with higher airflow and noise.
BEARINGS
Axial fans are available with different types of bearings that can affect its
life expectancy and mounting position. Dual ball bearings have the longest
life and allows the fan to be mounted in any direction. Sleeve bearings have a
low cost but short life expectancy.

FAN REPLACEMENT
STEP 1- COMPATIBILITY
Before you begin, please make sure that your new fan has a case size and
voltage range that is compatible with the previous fan. Please turnoff any
power going into your old fan.
STEP 2 – PREVIOUS FAN HAS TERMINAL CONNECTORS
If the fan you are trying to replace has terminal connectors, detach its power
connector from the terminals by pulling it off the fan. If the connectors
cannot be pulled off, please see page 10 for more information on previous fan
that has wired connectors. Mount the new fan into position using the previous
fan’s hardware. Then attach the power connectors onto the terminals of your
new fan. Turn the power back on and your new fan should begin to run.
STEP 2 – PREVIOUS FAN HAS WIRED CONNECTORS
If the fan you are trying to replace has permanent wires connected to the
power source that can’t be removed by pulling on it, cut the wire to remove
the previous fan. Then take the power plug cord included in this kit and
remove the head with a wire stripper. Under the cords plastic should be two
identical wires with their tips exposed.
STEP 3 – WIRING (LEADS)
The previous power source should have a set of two wires. Connect one wire
from the plug cord to one wire on the power source, then repeat for the second
pair.
STEP 4 – CONNECTING
You can connect the two wire pairs by using a connect or block or electrical
tape and wire connectors. Exposed wires and terminals can be hazardous when
the fan is powered.
STEP 5 – TERMINALS
Mount the new fan into position using the previous fan’ s hardware. Then attach the power cord’s connectors onto the terminals of your new fan.
MOUNTING
Please see page 14 for Hinge Mounting Instructions for Speed Control Fan Kits.
STEP 1 – MARKING
Use the fan to determine the exact position where you wish to mount it.
Outline the center circle and four outer screw holes with a pencil.
STEP 2 – DRILLING
Attach a hole saw onto the power drill, create the center hole as outlined by
your markings from the previous step. The hole saw size is dependent on the
fan’s case size. Using a power drill, create four screw holes as outlined by
your markings from the previous step. We recommend using a drill bit size from
10/64” to 14/64”.
STEP 3 – POSITIONING
Position the fan against the hole just created. Place a wire guard over the
fan’s side and another guard on the opposite end while keeping the screw holes
aligned.
STEP 4 – MOUNTING
Mount the unit using four machine screws while holding each corresponding nut
in place. Use a screwdriver to finish tightening the unit securely. Please see
page 15 on instructions on powering the fan.
Hinges are only included with Speed Control Fan Kits: S1225, S1225D, S1238, and S1238D.
STEP 1 – ATTACHING HINGE
To attach the hinge that is included in the kit, slide the screw through the
front end of the fan and the hinge as shown. Tighten the screw appropriately.
STEP 2 – MOUNTING HINGE
To mount the hinge on to your setup, use the included wood screw to drill into
position. You may need to turn the hinge to its side to create a clear pathway
to mount the wood screws through the hinge and onto a surface. Please see page
15 on instructions on powering the fan.
POWERING
STEP 1 – TERMINAL
After mounting your fan you can then attach the power plug cord onto the fans
terminal.
STEP 2 – POWERING
Lastly, plug the cord’s head into a standard outlet. You may also power the
fan with a wired power source, please see page 10 and 11.
