Description and use

The unit you have purchased is an axial centrifugal aspirator for air expulsion in ventilation ducts. It is constructed of plastic self- extinguishing material V0, is protected against sprays of water, and is equipped with ball bearings, which guarantee at least 30,000 hours of mechanical operation and constant silence over time.
IMPORTANT : The unit can develop 3 ventilation speeds, as it is already equipped with suitable condensers. Operating speed control is designated to pair with an appropriate 3-speed selector. For further information regarding the control device, see the “Wiring diagrams” paragraph. These appliances are designed for use in residential and commercial properties.

  • Switch off the main switch on the system when: a) a malfunction is detected, b) you decide to perform external cleaning maintenance, or c) you decide not to use the device for prolonged periods.
  • It is essential to ensure that sufficient air re-enters the room, to guarantee product operation.
  • If a combustion-powered, non-air-tight device is installed in the room (water heater, methane stove, etc.), please ensure that air re-entry also guarantees the perfect combustion of said device.
  • The unit cannot be used as an activator for water heaters, stoves, etc. nor should it discharge into hot air ducts.
  • Never cover the two intake grilles and the device return duct, to ensure optimal air passage.
  • The unit does not need to be connected to an earthing system as it has been built in double isolation.
  • The device must discharge in a single duct (used by this product only).
  • The product delivery point must always be connected to a duct.
  • To consult the maximum ambient temperature for appliance operation, refer to the data label.
  • The electrical specifications correspond to the ones on the data label A (fig.A).
  • An omnipolar switch with a contact opening distance of 3 mm or higher should be provided for installation, enabling complete disconnection under overvoltage category III conditions.
  • Products equipped with single-phase wiring (M) engines ALWAYS require a connection to 220-240V (or only 230V where required) single-phase lines. Any kind of modification shall be considered product tampering and shall nullify the relative warranty.
  • No specific adjustment is necessary as the devices operate at nominal frequencies without a preliminary setting. Thermal protection devices.
  • The unit is equipped with a manual reset thermal protector If the thermal protector is triggered, please contact qualified personnel or Vortice authorised Technical
