External Wall Fans
1. Junction box (outside the building)
A suitable weather proof, UV resistant enclosure must be used and all fittings and terminations must comply with the relevant electrical wiring
regulations. Note that for models incorporating a centrifugal fan, (FAN2301, FAN2302, FAN2316 and FAN2317) capacitor start motor, the
enclosure will need to house the capacitor as well as the terminal connections. The minimum available space required will be 70mm x
50mm x 50mm. Ensure that all cable entries are properly sealed. Make permanent connections per the relevant wiring information on page 3.
NOTE: Junction box supplied is not suitable for external use (outside the building).
2. Junction box (inside the building)
For inside the building the motor lead gland hole is between the top fixing and the middle of the unit – allow enough lead to protrude from
the duct as is required for termination. The motor lead has been terminated using a grommet to the outside of the base unit. The base unit
assembly can now be placed in position in the wall penetration.
Once the assembly has been fastened to the wall, the electrical connections can be made. The junction box must be fastened to the inside of
the building.
NOTE: Junction box supplied is suitable for internal use (inside the building).
3. The wall fan is suitable for external wall mount installations only.
4. Open the contents of the box and confirm it is all present.
5. To open the unit up carefully unscrew the two M4 screws and remove the star washers these will be required later in the installation, remove
the front cover and carefully put to one side.
6. The duct is 150mm in diameter, if required use a 125mm -150mm reducer (not supplied) to fit other sizes of duct.
7. Ensure that there is sufficient space for the product to be installed and that the front cover can be removed for maintenance.
8. Confirm that the screws supplied are sufficient for the wall type (see Wall Dog performance data).
9. Using the template provided, mark the duct, electrical cable position and fixing holes centres on the wall.
10. Cut a 160mm diameter hole through the wall for the duct.
11. Drill the wall for relevant screw fixing and the cable location.
12. Locate the unit on the wall, feed the electrical cable through the wall and secure the semi rigid duct from the inside of the building to the inlet.
13. Ensure there are no sharp bends or too much slack in the duct, trim any excess.
14. Fit the foam sealing tape supplied to rear of the Back Plate. Run tape around the outside of the mounting holes, joint located at the bottom.
15. Apply tape on all duct joins and secure the duct to the inside of any cabinets or roof with a suitable strap; Secure the back plate into position
using the screws provided (or alternative ones).
16. Ensure that the fan rotates ok and does not catch on any of the metal work.
17. Wire up the unit; use the white box provided and following the relevant wiring diagram below. Confirm that the fan operating correctly.
18. Before fixing the front cover on, seal any of the edges/joints or holes to ensure that the installation is watertight.
19. Fix the front cover on to the back plate, ensure that the open mesh is facing towards the bottom; the front cover clips over at the top and is
secured at the bottom sides with the two screws and star washers from above.
(These are needed to earth the outside cover and it is important that when testing the unit you check for this).
20. Make the installation watertight using suitable sealants.
21. Switch the mains power supply on and check that the fan is operating correctly.
IMPORTANT: The unit must be checked for earth continuity at the two screw locations.
