Description
- The AERO is designed for smaller commercial spaces where height and clearance may be limited. Utilising a direct drive motor the installation height is significantly reduced.
- Available in a customizable span between 2.6 – 4.0 meters and with discreet wall control, the Aero brings industrial fan tech into the reach of office and domestic users while still maintaining the benefits of a High Volume Low Speed (HVLS) system.

Installation Precautions
- The maximum weight of the fan is about 30kg and the maximum torque is about 30Nm.
- The clearance from the fan to the roof (no matter what the roof structure) is the distance between the location of the lowest part of the fan (nearest to the ground) and the installation of the upper connecting frame of the fan.
- For an inclined roof, the required distance should be moved to the tip of the blade, otherwise, it may cause the blade tip to collide with the roof or affect the smooth flow of airflow because the distance between the roof and the blade is too short.
- Overall, it is necessary to maintain reasonable fan blades and roof space to ensure proper airflow.
- With the increase of fan speed, the fan blade will move upward along the diameter, increasing the fan coverage area.
- Therefore, all obstacles that may be encountered within the radius of the fan and between the horizontal height of the fan’s static position and the ceiling should be measured before installation, ensuring that the fan has appropriate clearance in all directions when running (see below diagram). Ensure that the fan and the existing facilities of the building (horizontal and vertical) have a clearance of at least 300mm.
Installation Tools
Please ensure you at least have the following tools:
- Leveling instrument
- Cutting pliers
- Wire stripper
- Lifting device(Scissor lift or scaffold )
- Pliers
- 4 sets of tighteners(or turnbuckle screws)
- Phillips head screwdriver
- Flat head screwdriver
- Tapeline
- Marking pen
- Hand electric drill with M4 bit.
- Hexagonal wrench: 8mm/10mm/14mm
- Note: A hand electric drill with a 12mm drill bit will also be required if connecting to a concrete beam.
Installation Guide
- Step 1 – checking the drive device
- Before the motor is packaged and shipped, the hub has been connected, and the shaft sleeves and bolts with the anti-falling device are fixed on the hub in advance to form the Drive Device;
- Please check whether the screws are tightened to ensure that the hub, the shaft sleeves, and the bolts are fixed in place. See diagram below:
- Step 2 – Installing the fan blade empennage
- Use the two M5x16mm cup head self-tapping screws to fix the empennages at the end of each blade in sequence (see diagram above).
- Step 3 – Installing the fixing plate
- Use the four M10x80mm expansion screws to install the fixing plate on the beam through direct mount or side mount.
- Step 4 – Installing the extension rod
- Use two M8x55mm screws and nylock nuts to connect the extension rod to the wall fixing plate. Do not lock until the level adjustment and fixing is completed.
- Step 5 – Installing the drive device
- Connect the drive device to the extension rod with two M8x55mm screws and nylock nuts to secure it. Attention: Insert the cover for fixing the plate first if directly mounting onto the installation beam.
- Step 6 – Installing the fan blade
- Install the fan blades onto the brackets that are connected to the hub. The screw hole near the inner side will be the M8x40mm screws with nylock nuts, and the M8x12mm screws are used for the outer screw holes, fitting the screw and flat washer from above.
- Step 7 – Level adjustment and fixing
- Adjust the level of the fan, then lock the screws above the extension rod, and then use two M5x20mm tapping screws to install the cover of the fixing plate on the fixing plate.
- Step 8 – Installing the hub cover
- Use seven M4x15mm tapping screws to fix the hub cover to the drive device.
- Step 9 – Connecting the power supply and wiring
- The wire conduit layout should be done under site parameters.
- Before wiring, please make sure the power is off, then connect to the power supply. Power supply is a single-phase 240V.
- WARNING Do not connect the power supply to the motor directly.
- Step 10 – Check and adjust
- Check connection bolts: Upon completion of the above installation steps, double-check and ensure that all fastening bolts are provided by Zephyr and are properly installed and fastened.
- Step 11 – Fan blade condition check
- The fan blade is made of an extruded aluminum alloy material with a special fluorocarbon paint treatment.
- Please handle with care during installation to avoid scratches, dents, or deformation.
- Any damage on a fan blade might cause noise during operation.
- In case any damage occurs, contact Zephyr or the local distributor/dealer to replace the fan blade.
