Electrical Installation

Wiring the Fan

A means of disconnect must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with electrical codes and standards.
DO NOT LIFT, CARRY, OR HANG FAN BY POWER CABLE. This could possibly cause the safety disconnect system to disconnect power to the fan.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
For compliance with EMC standards the LF/SP Assembly must be installed as directed in the installation manual. The EMC requirements apply to the final installation in its entirety, not to the individual components used. As every installation is different, the recommended installation should follow these guidelines as a minimum.
Note: The use of the LF/SP Assembly is mandatory and will apply to Fan [CE]. However, for Fan [UL/ CSA] the LF/SP Assembly is additional optional equipment and is available upon request.

Power Wiring – 120/240 VAC 1 Phase Input
  1. Ensure all local electrical codes are met.

  2. The motor is to be field-wired to a separate dedicated branch circuit.

  3. The power cable must be secured to a solid point of the glu-lam, purlin, OWSJ, wood truss or building structure. The power cable is to be fastened so there is absolutely no slack in line, in order to allow the safety disconnect to function as designed.

  4. The location of the input power [line] is labelled on the enclosure and should be drilled to accommodate the appropriate gauge of wire required in accordance with the electrical codes and standards.

  5. The input power [line] will be wired into the LF/SP assembly as shown in the following illustration.

  6. The outgoing power [load] that is coming out of the LF/SP Assembly and going to the fan must also be wired as shown in the following illustration.

Input: 120/240V 2.9/1.45A 1 PH 50/60Hz LED: 25W

HMI Control

HMI/CAT 5 Cable Connection

75ft of Cat 5 cable is supplied to connect the HMI to the fan. This is a simple “plug and play” application once the cable is ran. Level and install HMI within reach of the 75ft CAT 5 cable using supplied fasteners. It is recommended the fan remain in line of site of the HMI.

HMI Control

The bottom left button toggles ‘Light’ to ‘Fan’ depending on what functionality you are looking to set or adjust. When the screen says ‘Fan’, the remaining buttons on the keypad are controlling just the fan. When the screen says ‘Light’, the remaining buttons on the keypad are controlling just the light.
The center button is the on/off control. This button controls both the fan & light, however; they are controlled separately depending on which functionality the interface is showing.
The top left button only works when the interface is controlling the ‘Fan’. This button is for forward and reverse functionality of the fan as indicated by the left and right arrows.
The up and down buttons on the right of the control adjust the speed of the fan or the brightness of the light depending on which functionality the interface is showing. The value is displayed 0%-100% and is adjusted in increments if 5%. 100% displayed for the fan is equivalent to full speed and 100% displayed for the light is full brightness. The control will remember the last speed & light values and will automatically resume those settings once the fan is turned back on.
Note: The Fan System is designed to monitor motor and controller temperatures and in the event that operating temperatures exceed control limits, fan speed will reduce until the system is within temperature limits. No user intervention is needed.
