INTRODUCTION
The Nuaire CYFAN centrifugal extract fan is a major advancement and has
been designed to meet the flow rates for all wet room applications such as the
bathroom, kitchen, utility, WC, etc.
The unit discharges air through a 100mm or 125mm diameter spigot which for
surface and semi-recessed mounted units exits at the rear of the unit. The
subsidiary spigot kit allows the fan to extract air through the side of the
fan via a 50mm diameter spigot.
The motor is a 24V brushless DC. Bearings are sealed, self-lubricating ball
types with integral locked rotor protection. Units are supplied with a
separate transformer enclosure if fans are required for SELV usage.
2.1 Unit Operation Includes 230V To 24V Conversion, Continuous Or
Intermittent
The fan can be converted to operate as a 24V DC SELV for zone 1 and 2
applications. The fan has the option to select continuous or intermittent
operation up to an installed performance of 60 l/s.
2.2 Mounting options
The CYFAN range can be:
- Surface Mounted
- Semi-Recessed Mounted : Using the optional extra Semi-Recessed mounting frame kit suitable for 100mm and 125mm diameter duct consists of the mounting plate and mounting flange.

ensure you have the necessary competency to complete the work safely.
The installation must be completed by competent persons in accordance with
good industry practice and should conform to all governing and statutory
bodies i.e. IEE, CIBSE, HVCA, etc.
If the environment in which the product is installed also houses a fuel-
operating device (water heater, methane stove, etc., that is not a “sealed
chamber” type), it is essential to ensure adequate air intake, to ensure good
combustion and proper equipment operation.
Ensure adequate air return into the room in compliance with existing
regulations in order to ensure proper device operation. Ensure the fan’s
capability by checking the performance fan curve. Flexible ducting is not
recommended.
3.1 Spigot Change
For kitchen installations, it is recommended that the 125mm diameter spigot is
fitted.
- Remove the front cover and grille.
- Remove fan scroll from fan casing (Do not disconnect wiring).

3.4 Transformer Enclosure (24 Volt units only)
24V fan units must be installed in accordance with these instructions
and IEE Wiring Regulations BS7671 for SELV installations.
The enclosure containing the transformer is intended to be mounted out of
sight (e.g. in a loft, cupboard, under floorboards, etc.).
However, if this is not possible the transformer enclosure should be mounted
as close to the ceiling, or as far from the “splash zone” as possible (see
below for definition of the splash zone).
As can be seen from the table of wiring sizes, it is advisable to place the
enclosure as close to the fan as possible to reduce the costs of wiring and
assist in installation.
3.4.1 Splash Zone
The ‘Splash Zone’ can be considered to be an area within a bathroom or shower
room where a person using the bath or shower can effectively reach.
An arm’s reach is defined as 0.6 meters from the edge of the bath or shower up
to a height of 2.25 meters.
- Installing the Transformer
- Remove the transformer cover.
- Position the transformer base enclosure on the mounting surface and route cables through knockouts. Mark the fixing points on the mounting surface. Secure using suitable fixings (by others).
- Before fitting section 1 of the PCB into the transformer enclosure connect the wiring as shown in section “5.3.5 Window Kit Installation The procedure” on page 8. Fit section 1 of the PCB by first slotting the bottom edge (Figure 9) into the fixing clip inside the base of the transformer enclosure then press on the transformer and terminal block until the PCB clicks into place. Complete by replacing the transformer cover using the screws provided. Keep vents clear of obstruction.
- Complete the installation of components by securing the PCB cover on the fan. No earth is to be connected between transformer and fan.
3.4.2 Wire Sizes for Transformer Installation
It is important to note that the size of wire used between the transformer and
the fan unit can have an adverse effect on the units’ performance if the
following table is not adhered to.
To avoid cable insulation contact with a hot transformer, always use the
knockout at the PCB end.
