DESIGN AND OPERATING PRINCIPLE

The fan casing is made of steel with an aluzinc anti-corrosion coating.
For easy installation and operation, the fan is attached to the surface using a special bracket.
Heat- and sound insulation are made of foam.
The round connecting spigots are rubber sealed.
The fan is equipped with an asynchronous electric motor with an external rotor and an impeller with forwarding curved blades.
The low-noise electric motor with ball bearings with specially selected grease ensures maintenance-free operation of the fan.
The duct fans are intended for mounting to round air ducts.
The fans are installed between the air ducts.
The fan is attached to the building structure using a bracket.
The fan may be installed in any position in consideration of the airflow direction (as indicated by the arrow on the fan casing).

ELECTRONICS OPERATION ALGORITHM

The KSA … U/U1/U2(n) fan is equipped with an electronic module TSC (speed controller with electronic thermostat) for automatic change of rotation speed (air flow rate)  depending on the air temperature.
There are 2 control knobs on the cover of the terminal compartment:

  • preset speed;
  • operating threshold of the electronic thermostat.

The thermostat indicator is located on the fan cover.
It lights up when the air temperature exceeds the set value.
To set the thermostat threshold, turn the temperature control knob clockwise to increase the value and counter-clockwise to decrease the value.
To set the rotation speed (airflow), turn the speed control knob in the same way.
There are two operation algorithms – by temperature and by timer:
KSA … U(n): when the room temperature exceeds the set value, the fan switches to maximum speed.
When the temperature falls below the set threshold by 2 °C (or if the temperature was initially below the set threshold), the fan operates at the set speed.
KSA … U1(n): when the air temperature in the room exceeds the set value, the fan switches to maximum speed.
When the air temperature falls below the set threshold, the delay timer starts a 5-minute countdown, then the fan switches to the set speed.
KSA … U2(n): when the air temperature in the room exceeds the set value, the fan turns on at the set speed.
When the temperature drops below the set threshold by 2 °C (or if the temperature was initially below the set threshold), the fan turns off.
The KSA … P fan is equipped with a speed controller that allows you to turn the fan on and off, and smoothly adjust the rotation speed (airflow) in the range from minimum to maximum speed.

WHILE INSTALLING THE UNIT ENSURE CONVENIENT ACCESS FOR SUBSEQUENT MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR.
****THE UNIT MUST BE MOUNTED ON A PLANE SURFACE.
MOUNTING OF THE UNIT TO AN UNEVEN SURFACE CAN LEAD TO THE UNIT CASING DISTORTION AND OPERATION DISTURBANCE.

  • Disconnect the unit from the power supply prior to any connection, servicing, and repair operations.
  • Prior to installing the fan make sure the casing has no visible damage and check the integrity of the power supply wires. The fan casing must not contain any foreign objects which can damage the impeller blades.
  • Make sure the impeller rotates freely without touching the flange and the casing.
  • The fan shall be installed in the air duct with the same diameter.
  • Mount the fan in such a way that the arrow on the fan casing matches the airflow direction in the system.
  • Install flexible connectors on both sides of the fan (purchased separately).
  • Ensure a direct air duct section of at least one air duct diameter long on the inlet side and at least three air duct diameters long on the outlet side.
  • The fan is not a ready-to-use unit and requires a connection to the air ducts.
  • Install the fan securely while ensuring free access for maintenance operations.
  • The fixing means for attachment to the ceiling such as hooks or other devices shall be fixed with sufficient strength to withstand 4 times the weight of the ceiling fan.
  • When mounting the fan outdoors, protect it against weather impact and water ingress, for example, by mounting a hood over the fan.
  • Take steps to prevent backflow of gases from devices using gas and open flames.
