MOUNTING AND SETUP
READ THE USER'S MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING THE UNIT.
BEFORE MOUNTING, MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO VISIBLE DEFECTS ON THE UNIT, SUCH
AS MECHANICAL DAMAGES, MISSING PARTS, IMPELLER JAMMING ETC.
WHEN MOUNTING THE UNIT, IT IS NECESSARY TO PROVIDE PROTECTION AGAINST
CONTACT WITH HAZARDOUS ZONES OF THE FAN BY INSTALLING AIR DUCTS OF THE
NECESSARY LENGTHS AND PROTECTIVE GRILLES.
MOUNTING MUST BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED SPECIALISTS ONLY, PROPERLY
TRAINED AND QUALIFIED TO INSTALL AND MAINTAIN VENTILATION EQUIPMENT.
The unit is intended for mounting with round air ducts. The fan is installed between the air ducts.
The fan casing is equipped with fixing brackets for suspended mounting or for mounting on a horizontal or vertical surface.
While installing the unit ensure convenient access for subsequent maintenance and repair. Fasteners for fan mounting are not included
in the delivery set and should be ordered separately. While choosing fasteners consider the material of the mounting surface as well as
the weigh of the unit, refer to the Technical data section. Fasteners for unit mounting should be selected by a service technician.

Make sure the fan is fastened securely.
Connect the air ducts of the appropriate diameter to the fan (connections must be airtight).
Air motion in the system must be in compliance with the direction of the arrow on the fan label.
To attain the best performance of the fan and to minimise turbulence-induced air pressure losses, it is recommended to connect the
straight air duct section to the spigots on both sides of the unit while mounting.
Minimum recommended straight air duct section length is equal to 3 fan diameters (see the "Technical data" section).
If the air ducts are shorter than 1 m or not connected, the internal parts of the unit must be protected from ingress of foreign objects.
To prevent uncontrollable access to the fans, the spigots may be covered with a protecting grille or other protecting device with
mesh width not more than 12.5 mm.

ELECTRONICS OPERATION ALGORITHM
The EC motor is controlled by sending of an external control signal from 0 to 10 V to the X2 terminal block or by the R1 internal speed
controller. Control method selection is carried out by means of the SW DIP switch:
- DIP switch in IN position. The control signal is set by the R1 internal speed controller, which allows turning the fan on and off, smoothly
regulating the fan motor rotation speed (air flow) in the range from minimum to maximum speed.
Rotations are controlled from the minimum (extreme right position) to the maximum (extreme left position).
When rotating clockwise, the rotations increase.
- DIP switch in EXT position. The control signal is set by the S1 external control unit.
