150mm EC Through-Wall/Ceiling Fan for Manual Extraction
(Adjustable Speed)
Thank you for your purchase of our company’s product. It has been manufactured following
current technical safety regulations and is in compliance with AS/NZ60335 standard.
Please read this instruction booklet carefully before installing or starting up the
product.
It contains important information on personal and user safety measures to be followed while
installing, using, and carrying out maintenance work on the equipment. Once the product
has been installed, please hand this booklet to the end user.
Before installing the fan, it is important to understand the way this fan functions.
The fan is designed to be continuously powered.
When the fan is first turned on, it will ramp up to full speed. To adjust the fan speed, insert
the tool provided with the fan through the small hole in the center of the fan cone and press
the button. For every short press, the fan will slow down by 10%. Allow 3 seconds for the
fan to adjust its speed. Repeat until the fan reaches the desired speed.
After the 11th button press, or if the button is pressed down for more than 3 seconds, the
fan will return to full speed. Any subsequent button presses will decrease the speed
accordingly.
The next time the fan is turned on it will ramp up to the selected speed and stay there unless
the button is pressed again and the speed setting changed again.
This model fan does not include the option of adding a remote wall switch.
INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
Before commencing installation, select a suitable place for the fan to be installed in the
external wall. Locate and avoid wall studs when determining fan placement. The fan must
not be placed inside zone 1 (see image 2) as the fan is powered by mains voltage and could
pose an electrocution hazard.
Drill a 152mm hole through the wall for the fan, either using a circular hole saw or other
means. Cut slots to fit the fan wiring through the wall. Wire the fan power lead and switch
cable as per the wiring diagram (see image 1).
Place the fan inside the hole and remove its face plate by undoing the screw on the bottom
edge of the fan. Mount the fan by placing the screws provided in the screw holes in the fan
and fastening them to the wall - make sure the fan is level and spins freely as you do this.
Once the fan is mounted, replace the face plate and screw in place, making sure the grille is
positioned correctly and no wires are cinched beneath the grille or face plate.
Note: wiring mains power should only be carried out by a registered electrician.
Once the fan is in installed, place a short length of 150mm aluminium ducting over the fan
spigot from outside, then install a cowl or louvre grille on the other side as required.
Please note: Excessive ducting and sharp bends lower the fan’s performance. If installing
as a through-ceiling fan ensure the ducting is long enough, with gradual bends, before
cutting the ducting.
Important information for the safety of installers and user:
Installation must only be carried out by qualified persons. Make sure that the installation
complies with the applicable building and electrical regulations.
This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons unless they have
been adequately supervised by a responsible person to ensure that they can use the appli-
ance safely. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
This apparatus must not be used in explosive or corrosive atmospheres. If a fan is going to
be installed to extract air from premises where a boiler or other combustion apparatus are
installed, make sure that the building has sufficient air intakes to assure adequate
combustion. The extractor outlet must not be connected to a duct used to exhaust smoke or
fumes from any appliance that uses gas or any other type of fuel.
TRANSPORT AND MANIPULATION
The packaging used for this apparatus has been designed to support normal transporting
conditions. The apparatus must always be transported in its original packaging as not doing
so could deform or damage the product. Do not place heavy weights on the packed product
and avoid knocking or dropping it.
The product should be stored in a dry place in its original packaging, protected from dust
and dirt until it is installed in its final location. Do not accept delivery if the apparatus is not
in its original packaging or shows clear signs of having been manipulated in any way.
Check that the apparatus is in perfect condition while unpacking. Any fault or damage
caused in origin is covered by our company guarantee. Please make sure that the apparatus
coincides with the product you have ordered and that the details on the rating label fulfil
your requirements.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The extractor fan must be connected to a single-phase mains network, with the specific
voltage and frequency according to the specifications on the fan rating label and in
accordance with New Zealand electrical standards.
Please note that this model of fan is not fitted with a power plug and must therefore be wired
with a fixed permanent connection.
In case of damage to the power plug, cord, or device itself, switch off the device and do not
tamper with it. Damaged product must only be repaired or replaced exclusively by the
manufacturer or by an appointed representative. Failure to comply with the above may
endanger the safety of people and cause possible damage to the whole system.
SAFETY DURING INSTALLATION
Make sure there are no loose elements near the fan, as they could run the risk of being
sucked up by it. If it is going to be installed in a duct, check that it is clear of any element
that could be sucked up by the fan. When installing an apparatus, make sure that all the
fittings are in place and that the structure which supports it is resistant enough to bear its
weight at full functioning power.
Before installing the fan, make sure the mains supply is disconnected, even if the fan is
switched off.
If the fan is installed in a duct, the duct must be used for the extraction system only.
STARTING UP THE FAN
Fans may have delayed startup, or may operate under the control of the inbuilt controlling
electronics included with the fan. Always take extreme care as the fan may start unexpect-
edly. Always disconnect the fan from power during maintenance.
Before starting up the fan, ensure that:
•

If the circuit protection device is tripping during operation, the apparatus must be quickly
disconnected from the mains supply. The whole installation should be carefully checked
before trying to start up the machine again.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
Before servicing the fan, make sure it is disconnected from the mains supply - even if it has
previously been switched off. Avoid the risk of anyone else plugging it in while you’re work-
ing on it.
The fan must be regularly inspected. These inspections should consider the fan’s working
conditions, ensuring no dirt or dust builds up on the propeller, turbine, motor or grilles. This
could be dangerous and perceptibly shorten the fan’s lifespan. While cleaning, take extra
care not to damage the propeller.
All maintenance work should be carried out in strict compliance with New Zealand safety
regulations.
All our products contain repairable or replaceable parts. Repair or replacement of these parts
should only be handled by the manufacturer. In the case of damage or malfunction of the
fan, please contact the manufacturer or installer to arrange for repair. Please note that a
small fee may apply for repair services not covered under warranty.

coincides with the product you have ordered and that the details on the rating label fulfil
your requirements.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The extractor fan must be connected to a single-phase mains network, with the specific
voltage and frequency according to the specifications on the fan rating label and in
accordance with New Zealand electrical standards.
Please note that this model of fan is not fitted with a power plug and must therefore be wired
with a fixed permanent connection.
In case of damage to the power plug, cord, or device itself, switch off the device and do not
tamper with it. Damaged product must only be repaired or replaced exclusively by the
manufacturer or by an appointed representative. Failure to comply with the above may
endanger the safety of people and cause possible damage to the whole system.
SAFETY DURING INSTALLATION
Make sure there are no loose elements near the fan, as they could run the risk of being
sucked up by it. If it is going to be installed in a duct, check that it is clear of any element
that could be sucked up by the fan. When installing an apparatus, make sure that all the
fittings are in place and that the structure which supports it is resistant enough to bear its
weight at full functioning power.
Before installing the fan, make sure the mains supply is disconnected, even if the fan is
switched off.
If the fan is installed in a duct, the duct must be used for the extraction system only.
STARTING UP THE FAN
Fans may have delayed startup, or may operate under the control of the inbuilt controlling
electronics included with the fan. Always take extreme care as the fan may start unexpect-
edly. Always disconnect the fan from power during maintenance.
Before starting up the fan, ensure that:
•
•
•
•
When starting up the fan, ensure that:
•
•
If the circuit protection device is tripping during operation, the apparatus must be quickly
disconnected from the mains supply. The whole installation should be carefully checked
before trying to start up the machine again.
MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
Before servicing the fan, make sure it is disconnected from the mains supply - even if it has
previously been switched off. Avoid the risk of anyone else plugging it in while you’re work-
ing on it.
The fan must be regularly inspected. These inspections should consider the fan’s working
conditions, ensuring no dirt or dust builds up on the propeller, turbine, motor or grilles. This
could be dangerous and perceptibly shorten the fan’s lifespan. While cleaning, take extra
care not to damage the propeller.
All maintenance work should be carried out in strict compliance with New Zealand safety
regulations.
All our products contain repairable or replaceable parts. Repair or replacement of these parts
should only be handled by the manufacturer. In the case of damage or malfunction of the
fan, please contact the manufacturer or installer to arrange for repair. Please note that a
small fee may apply for repair services not covered under warranty.

Installation Manual
150mm EC Through-Wall/Ceiling Fan for Manual Extraction
(Adjustable Speed)
Thank you for your purchase of our company’s product. It has been manufactured following
current technical safety regulations and is in compliance with AS/NZ60335 standard.
Please read this instruction booklet carefully before installing or starting up the
product.
It contains important information on personal and user safety measures to be followed while
installing, using, and carrying out maintenance work on the equipment. Once the product
has been installed, please hand this booklet to the end user.
Before installing the fan, it is important to understand the way this fan functions.
The fan is designed to be continuously powered.
When the fan is first turned on, it will ramp up to full speed. To adjust the fan speed, insert
the tool provided with the fan through the small hole in the center of the fan cone and press
the button. For every short press, the fan will slow down by 10%. Allow 3 seconds for the
fan to adjust its speed. Repeat until the fan reaches the desired speed.
After the 11th button press, or if the button is pressed down for more than 3 seconds, the
fan will return to full speed. Any subsequent button presses will decrease the speed
accordingly.
The next time the fan is turned on it will ramp up to the selected speed and stay there unless
the button is pressed again and the speed setting changed again.
This model fan does not include the option of adding a remote wall switch.
INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
Before commencing installation, select a suitable place for the fan to be installed in the
external wall. Locate and avoid wall studs when determining fan placement. The fan must
not be placed inside zone 1 (see image 2) as the fan is powered by mains voltage and could
pose an electrocution hazard.
Drill a 152mm hole through the wall for the fan, either using a circular hole saw or other
means. Cut slots to fit the fan wiring through the wall. Wire the fan power lead and switch
cable as per the wiring diagram (see image 1).
Place the fan inside the hole and remove its face plate by undoing the screw on the bottom
edge of the fan. Mount the fan by placing the screws provided in the screw holes in the fan
and fastening them to the wall - make sure the fan is level and spins freely as you do this.
Once the fan is mounted, replace the face plate and screw in place, making sure the grille is
positioned correctly and no wires are cinched beneath the grille or face plate.
Note: wiring mains power should only be carried out by a registered electrician.
Once the fan is in installed, place a short length of 150mm aluminium ducting over the fan
spigot from outside, then install a cowl or louvre grille on the other side as required.
Please note: Excessive ducting and sharp bends lower the fan’s performance. If installing
as a through-ceiling fan ensure the ducting is long enough, with gradual bends, before
cutting the ducting.
