Installation
WARNING
The fan must be isolated from the power supply during installation and
maintenance. The fan must be earthed by the local regulations.
- Upon receipt, the fan equipment should be visually inspected to check for any damage. Ensure that the impeller is free to rotate.
- If there are any queries concerning the fan equipment, Elta-UK Ltd should be contacted before the installation.
- The fan must be securely mounted and the panels adjusted to suit the desired position to suit the application.
- Check the details on the motor/fan rating plate to ensure that the correct power supply (voltage, frequency, and phase) is available. An incorrect power supply will lead to permanent damage to the motor.
- Refer to the appropriate wiring diagram. Ensure that all earth connections are made.
- This means that electrical disconnection must be incorporated into the wiring installation by the relevant wiring and electrical regulations.
- Precaution must be taken to locate the exhaust discharge terminal to avoid the backflow of gases into the room from the open flue of gas or other fuel-burning appliances.
- The SSQU fan range is designed with rearrangeable panels, providing you with the flexibility to customize the installation according to your specific needs. If in doubt, contact Elta.
Storage
- The storage place must be vibration-free, clean, dry, and not subject to extreme temperature variations.
- When storing for prolonged periods, whereby nonrotation of the motor occurs, we recommend electrical and bearing inspection, as they may have incurred damage or require possible re-lubrication.
WARNING
Elta-UK Ltd should be consulted in instances where speed controllers or
inverter devices are to be used.
Start-Up
- Before power is supplied to the unit, check that the wiring is correct as per the fan connection diagram.
- At initial start-up, check that the impeller rotation and airflow direction are correct.
- Check that the motor amperage draw does not exceed the nameplate rating.
Fan Maintenance
- Inspection of the fan at least once every 12 months is recommended to ensure that the motor, fan blades, and supporting guards, are clean. Any build-up of dust and deposits on the blades or guards should be removed using a non-abrasive cleaner.
- All fastenings should be checked for tightness. In addition, all rotating items should be checked.
- Bearings are of the ‘sealed for life’ type and will not need a detailed inspection.
- The SSQU range has an easily removable panel arrangement fixed to Multi-thread “U” nuts, ideal for frequent cleaning.
WARNING
Fuses/circuit breakers are used to provide short-circuit protection only. A
starter panel with overload protection should be used to protect the motor.
Only a suitably qualified and competent person may carry out maintenance after
the electrical supply has been isolated.

even if the impeller is rotating in the wrong direction. Incorrect direction
of rotation will result in lower air volumes, increased noise, and higher
electrical current, which will harm the motor.
