Items supplied
The fan unit is enclosed in a plastic cylinder incorporated in the motor carrier, which can be entirely accommodated in the destination pipe and whose short length makes it perfectly compatible with installation near elbow bends (90°), typical of pipe fittings.
The main parts of the appliance are:
- Motor carrier and front panel, made of ABS thermoplastic, impact resistant and anti-UV resin;
- Centrifugal rotor made of PP resin, designed for high performance, low power consumption, and low noise emissions;
- Motor with shielded poles, equipped with ball bearings, and fitted with a thermal fuse.
- PCB (T models).
Installation
Figg. 2 ÷ 13
N.B. whatever the orientation of the appliance, the non-return valve must always be in a vertical position (Fig. 8, 9).
N.B. if the non-return valve should come out of place and/or split into its
halves, it will be possible to reposition it as shown in Fig. 9a, 9b.
Trimmer settings (T models)
There is a trimmer on the PCB that can be used to adjust the duration of the switch-off delay (factory set to 3 minutes). The delay duration can be adjusted up to approximately 20 minutes using the trimmer (Fig. 14).
Use
- Basic models
- This appliance is operated by switching it on using the power switch.
- Timer models
- This appliance is operated by switching it on using the power switch. The integrated timer controls the switch-off delay. After it is switched off by means of the switch, the appliance will therefore continue to run for the set amount of time.
