Important info
The unit must be installed by a certified installer in accordance with the installation instructions and the local building codes. Please follow this instruction manual and file it somewhere safe! The unit must always be accessible for maintenance and inspection.

The warranty is void when:

the installation, maintenance or operation instructions in this manual are not respected.
modifications have been made to the product, before, during or after product installation.
maintenance has been carried out by unauthorized people.
maintenance has been carried out by someone other than Jaga.
access to the unit has been restricted due to on-site conditions.
the initial start-up has been carried out before a general cleaning of both the fan and the coil.

WARNINGS AND SAFETY

Handling guidelines:
The unit must be handled with care in order to avoid damage to the unit’s interior and exterior parts.
The unit might have sharp edges; use gloves during installation/adjustment.
All the operations listed below must be carried out in accordance with local health and safety regulations.
Storage conditions:
Up to four packaged units may be stacked on top of each other. All units must be stored in a dry area.
Technical spaces and positioning:
Incorrect installation of the unit may cause noise and vibrations issues.

PACKAGING AND COMPONENTS

Follow these instructions when removing the packaging:

check for any visible damage
open the packaging
check if the manual is in the package
remove the packaging material and put it in the appropriate collection point or recycling facility, in compliance with the local regulations.

Dispose of the packaging materials in compliance with the national or local regulations.
Do not leave the packaging within reach of children.

INSTALLATION

installation must be carried out by certified technicians. Incorrect installation could cause product failure, a reduced performance or an increased noise level.
the unit must be installed in accordance with the local building codes.
Always use personal protective equipment.
the unit must remain accessible for inspection and maintenance, the trench must be removable at all times.

ACOUSTIC INSULATION
Sound absorption
Sound is reflected by hard materials. Soft, porous materials are best suited for sound absorption. A combination of different materials can reduce the reflection of sound.
Contact noise insulation
Sound travels very easily through hard materials. Soft rubber material can be used to reduce contact noise. The effect of this insulation strongly depends on:
- installation method: make sure that vibrations cannot be transferred between different elements, e.g. between the built-in heaters and other metallic parts, through pipes, along air ducts etc.
- installation of acoustic insulation in hollow acoustic spaces. Avoid cavities between insulation and pipes.

GENERAL INFORMATION

DANGER

The unit is not intended for industrial applications.
Do not insert objects into the supply and return air openings.

IMPORTANT!

the unit will only function correctly if the installation and operation manual is strictly followed.
all clearances indicated in the manual must be respected in order to guarantee performance, and to allow installation and maintenance.
in case valve packages are to be installed, make sure that there is enough room left.
periodic access to the unit is required for inspection, maintenance and repairs.
pay attention to the signs and symbols indicated on the fan coil units.

Unit identification:
The serial number is tagged on unit’s right side (on the left if the connections are on the unit’s right side).
Information regarding unintended use:
The unit has been designed to function as a fan coil for both heating and cooling applications; any other use is strictly forbidden. Installing the unit in an explosive environment is prohibited.
Decommissioning:
When the unit is not used for long periods of time, it must be disconnected from the mains electrical connection.

INSTALLATION

ALWAYS SWITCH OFF THE MAINS SUPPLY BEFORE INSTALLATION!

Place the mounting strips on the unit’s outer trench.
Bend the mounting strips (max.25/32 inch).
Multiple Micro Canals: make sure that the unit is correctly positioned and that the grille holders are tightly connected. Use the provided connectors to connect the different units to each other.
Position the units correctly, with the coil towards the wall.

Position the unit at a distance of at least 7 7/8 inch from a window wall.
Mark the drill holes. Drill the holes (drill dia.5/16inch) and insert the plugs
Make sure to use the correct type of plug for your floor type!
Secure the unit to the floor with mounting strips.
Fill the cavities underneath the trench with a solid mass.
Place both the supply and return hoses as well as the power cable.
Make sure that there is at least 2 23/64 inch of both hose and cable inside the trench.
Cover the unit with the protection block.
With screed (concrete or cement), installation of edge insulation is required around the unit in order to protect it from stress.
Remove the protection block. Assemble the end cap and place the inner trench in the outer trench.
Use the adjustment-screws to adjust the unit’s height. Make sure that the top is level with the finished floor.
Secure the inner trench.
Connect with flexible hoses (supplied by others) to the coil’s supply and return connections.
[+] and [-] need to be connected to the unit’s electrical connectional.
Always switch off the mains supply before installation!
Click the water temperature sensor on top of the coil. The water temperature should be at least 340C. If it is lower, remove the sensor and turn on/off the fans by means of a potential free thermostat.
After placing the subfloor and the finished floor: remove the protective cover and the foil, place the grille and then apply the finishing touches.

INITIAL START

IMPORTANT!
Start-up and Commissioning of the fan coil must be carried out by skilled staff, qualified to work on this type of product.
DANGER!
Before start-up, make sure the installation has been carried out in compliance with in this manual.
Before start-up the fan coil unit, check if:

the unit is positioned correctly
the supply and return pipes are properly connected and insulated
the pipes are clean and air is removed
the inclination of the unit towards the drain and the p-trap are correct
the coils are clean
the wiring connections are correct and properly tightened
the supply voltage is correct
the electric power consumption is correct and does not exceed the maximum value indicated in the catalog

Run the fan for minimal 3 hours and check for abnormalities.

MAINTENANCE

DANGER!

maintenance must be carried out by qualified technicians.
do not insert sharp objects into the supply and return grilles
the unit has sharp edges; use gloves during maintenance!

DANGER!
Always use the main disconnect switch to isolate the unit from the mains before carrying out any maintenance or inspection work. Make sure that no one accidentally turns on the power to the unit; lock the master switch in the off position.

SPECIAL NOTE
Maintenance and cleaning of the stainless steel protection grille: a dirty grille obstructs the air flow, so clean the grille at regular intervals, depending on the room’s purpose and how it’s used. The grille should never be disassembled for maintenance and can be easily cleaned by using a vacuum cleaner.
Cleaning the unit
always disconnect the power supply before servicing the fan!!
- cleaning at regular intervals is important, depending on the room’s purpose and how it’s used
- clean with a vacuum cleaner or air compressor. Do not use solvent- or detergent based products.
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Every 6 months: Check the condition of the coil and condensate drain: If necessary:
- remove any dirt from the coil surface
- remove dust using an air compressor
- wash with water and brush gently
- dry by using compressed air
- keep the condensate drain free from any obstructions that may prevent normal water flow
  Bleed air from the system.
1. start the circulation pump and open the supply valve for a few minutes.
2. stop the circulation pump.
3. loosen the vent screw on the inlet collector and bleed the air.
4. repeat steps 1 to 3 until there is no more air escaping the system
ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT
The following steps are recommended to perform maintenance on the electrical circuit:
- check the unit’s power consumption using a clip-on meter and compare the reading with the values shown in the documentation;
- inspect the electrical contacts for corrosion and loose wires.
