SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

WARNING:

• This fan must be isolated from the power supply during installation

and maintenance.

• This fan must be grounded in accordance with local regulations.

• This fan is tted with a non self-resetting thermal cut out which

switches the fan off in the event of a fault condition. To reset, turn the

power off for one minute, then back on. Only a qualied and compe-

tent person may carry out maintenance after the electrical supply has

been isolated.

• TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, OR IN-

JURY, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES:

a) Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If

you have questions, contact the manufacturer or place of purchase.

b) Active Air™ in-line duct fans are designed for use in up to 95%

relative humidity. They are not humidiers or dehumidiers. This fan is

not suitable for corrosive or explosive atmospheres.

c) Before servicing or cleaning the unit, disconnect the fan from the

power supply.

d) Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by a qualied

person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards,

including re-rated construction.

e) When cutting or drilling into walls or ceilings, take care not to dam-

age electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

f) Ducted fans should always be vented outside the area occupying

the garden for the most efcient operation.

g) NEVER allow the unit to directly contact moisture or wet environ-

ments.

h) Take caution when operating, this unit has an unguarded impeller,

therefore DO NOT use it in locations readily accessible to people or

animals.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Upon purchase, the fan equipment should be visually inspected

to check for any damage. Ensure that the impeller has free rotation

without scraping or catching on any part of the internal housing.

2. If there are any questions concerning the fan equipment, Hydro-

farm or the retailer should be contacted prior to the installation.

3. Use the mounting brackets included with the fan system to securely

fasten the unit in the desired mounting position. (Refer to FIGURE 1 &

2 for mounting options)

4. Check the details on the motor rating plate to ensure that the cor-

rect power supply (voltage, frequency and phase) is available. An

incorrect power supply may lead to permanent damage to the fan

motor.

5. Refer to the appropriate wiring diagram, and ensure that all ground

connections are made.

6. Means for electrical disconnection must be incorporated in the wir-

ing installation in accordance with the relevant wiring and electrical

regulations.

MAINTENANCE:

All Active Air™ series in-line duct fans incorporate sealed for life bear-

ings and therefore do not require any lubrication. We would recom-

mend inspection of the product at least once every 12 months to

ensure that the motor, impellor, and supporting guards are clean. All

fastenings should be checked for tightness and security. In addition,

all rotating items should be checked. To inspect the unit, disconnect it

from the power supply and any duct work. If debris is evident on the

impeller, clean it with a damp (not wet) cloth. DO NOT use any deter-

gents or abrasive materials for cleaning.
