Fig. No.3 –Outlet configurations in fans type WPA-CHEM
5. Structure and Function
Fig. No.4 –WPA-CHEM –Structure
Impeller is a welded construction, of non-plasticised plates of polyvinylchloride. To the fan
impeller is fastened an aluminium hub that (along with the impeller) is connected with the
motor pivot. The housing is a welded construction of two parallel walls strengthened with
ribs. Between the walls is located a spiral element of the housing.
The housing is made of plates of non-plasticised polyvinylchloride. To the housing disk is
welded an inlet confusor. The housing disk is fastened disconnectably, at the front wall
of the housing (its easy dismantling provides free access to the impeller).
The inlet confusor is also extruded of a plate of non-plasticised polyvinylchloride. Induc-
tion motors on feet are applied as a drive element of the fan, whereby the motor housing
is of aluminium alloy.

6
CHEM-PROOF STATIONARY FAN WPA-CHEM 04.06.2019
The fan is efficient in horizontal application and in ambient temperature +40ºC. On demand
are delivered motors adapted for operation in ambient temperature up to +60ºC.
Both, the fan housing and motor are installed on the base. The base is a welded construc-
tion of steel angle bars.
The plate underneath the motor is made of strengthened steel sheet. In the lower part of the
base are located mounting holes to install the fan on a foundation.
The cover of the inlet and outlet protects User from accidental contact with the rotary fan ele-
ment. Covers (guards) are prepared of steel wire in a form of grill.
On demand, are delivered isolating switches, to cut off the power supply during the installing,
servicing (see catalogue card “Electrical Accessories”).
6. Assembly and Start-up
The fan is delivered in a completely assembled state. Prior to installing, examine if the deli-
vered fan was not damaged or polluted during the transport.
The hole pattern of the foundation ought to be strictly according to the distribution of suitable
holes in the fan base. Additionally, the holes placement of the inlet and outlet should be
suitable with adequate holes of the ventilation ducts. The fan must be placed strictly horizon-
tally (if the device is not levelled, use washers to obtain appropriate positioning).
Moreover, it is important to tighten up evenly the foundation screws. Ventilation ducts must
be connected in such a way, that they do not charge the inlet- and outlet flange (of the fan)
with excessive load. Therefore, use flexible connections.
Before the connection to the power supply, make sure whether the parameters of the
existing electrical installation are in accordance with the data on the nominal plate.
Otherwise, in case of inconsistency the connection cannot be executed.
Fig. No.5 –Connection Diagram –WPA-CHEM
Connection to the electrical power system has to be executed by User on one’s own by selec-
ting the right type and the section of the supply cable, and choosing the appropriate short-
circuit- and overload protection, according to the local conditions.

7
04.06.2019 CHEM-PROOF STATIONARY FAN WPA-CHEM
Connection to the power supply system ought to be carried out aby an
authorised person with qualifications, according to the valid regulations and indications
in Fig. No.5.
Prior to the start-up, check the connection between the motor and the PE protective cable, and
the correctness of the electrical connections.
The impeller rotation sense ought to be according to the arrow on the housing, in case
of incompatibility change the phase con-nection sequence (3-phase motors only).
Before the first start-up, check the correctness of the connections between the fan and the ven-
tilation dust. Additionally, check if there are some pollutants / foreign objects (solids) in the fan
or ventilation ducting.
7. Operational Use
The construction do not require any additional maintenance after the start-up. If the place of
operational use is changed –repeat the steps according to installing and adapting the venti-
lation system to the new application and conditions (see Section 6 of the present Use and
Maintenance Manual).
In case when any symptoms of incorrect work of the device are noticed, (not typical noises
or visually), follow steps as in Section 8.

9. Maintenance
In the aspect of operational use, the fan construction guarantees its efficient function without
continuous routine technical supervision. Nevertheless, during the operation carry out the
routine maintenance steps.
Once a year submit the fan to technical revision –the electrical motor ought to be examined
according to the instructions of the motor manufacturer.
Every several years, check the mechanical and electrical connections. The electrical instal-
lation ought to be checked according to the standard PN-HD 60364-6 “Low-voltage electri-
cal installations –Part 6: Verification”.
Moreover, if any defective function of the unit or failure is noticed –undertake its additional
control.

thorised person with qualifications and after disconnection from the power supply sys-
tem.
10. Occupational Health and Safety
Start up and the operational use is only admissible exclusively after getting acquain-
ted with the contents of the present Use and Maintenance Manual.
The fan will not constitute any hazard, under the condition that it is correctly installed to the
supporting structure or ventilation system.
Connect the fan to the electrical wiring system, strictly according to the enclosed Connection
Diagram and the guidelines shown in Section 6 of the present Use and Maintenance Manual.
This ought to be carried out exclusively by a qualified person, and in accordance with
the valid regulations.
The fan motor must be protected against the short-circuit- and overload effects. During the
operational use, check the connection between the fan and the PE protective cable.
Any technical revisions and repair should be performed, necessarily
after disconnection from the power supply system (isolating switch).
11. Transport and Storage
For the transport time, the fan should be protected against damage (indentation, crack, etc.).
Smaller fans can be forwarded in cardboard packages, whereas the larger ones –should be
placed on a pallet, protected with foil.
Use special transporting lines (ropes) attached at the pallet base or at the fan base, in order
to displace or lift the device.
The device ought to be stored in dry rooms and in areas of efficient ventilation. Do not put
one device on top of another (no stacking).
