1.2 Introduction
Congratulations on your excellent choice of purchasing a TU600 - TU800 chimney fan!
In order to realize the full benefit from this product it is important that it is installed, commissioned and operated
correctly. Before installation or using the fan, this manual should be studied carefully. It is also recommended that
it is kept safely for future reference. The manual is intended as a reference for installation, commissioning and day-
to-day operation of the fans.

2.1 General
The safety of fans is assured by Munters in compliance with the safety requirements indicated by the CE label.
Safe functioning is assured only when the installation procedure and the instructions for use have been carefully
followed. The following points must be stressed:
•proper transport procedure must be followed;
•fans are intendended to be installed and used at an height higher than 2.7 meters from ground level;
•in case, for any reason, fans are installed or used at an height lower than 2.7 meters from level ground then,
the constructor is exonerated from all responsability and the use of the fan is considered improper;
•the maintenance operator must be kept informed on maintenance procedures;
•do not operate the fan without having it firmly fixed to the structure or without complying with the safety
regulations for the electrical connection;
•do not install the fan in places where there might be explosion hazards as described by EN 60079 rules;
•do not handle any material which might produce explosive powders;
•the emission of harmful particles and / or gases into the atmosphere must be within the limits determined
by local authorities;
•the fan is intended to be installed and used by qualified personnel who are familiar with relevant safety
requirements;
•safety equipment necessary for the prevention of accidents at the mounting and operating site shall be
provided by the buyer in accordance with the regulations prevailing in the local country;
•fans should not be installed in places where children aged 14 or less are present.
2.2 Points to observe
The fan must not be driven by impulsive voltage (frequently on/off voltage). This impulse voltage causes an
excessive build-up of heat in the motor which can lead to motor failure. The temperature of the outer casing of the
motor may be hot to the touch during normal operation.
Safety aspects 2.
The fan must only be used if it is in perfect operating condition, by personnel, aged
more than 14 years who are perfectly aware of the safety measures and possible
hazards, and in strict compliance with the instructions given in this manual.
WARNING
!
Do not put anything inside the TU while the fan is in operation. Wait until the
electrical power has been switched off and the fan has come to a complete stand
still. Lock the electrical switch in the off position with a pad lock while working on
the fan.
WARNING

Before using 3.
3.1 Delivery check
Upon receipt, inspect the fan for external damage and if found, inform the forwarding agent without delay. Check
the data on all the rating plates, especially voltage and frequency. After placing the motor in the working position,
turn the propeller by hand while the fan is switched off to verify smooth rotation of the propeller.
3.2 Packaging and transport of assembled fans
The fans are made of a self-supporting structure in steel, surrounded by a plastic housing. They are usually
delivered in unassembled form. Follow the instructions in order to proper assemble them. Assembled fans shall not
be stocked one upon the other, if they are delivered with or without packaging. Handling of the assembled fans
should not be done manually as the fans have no handles or grips. Consequently one of the following alternatives
should be used:
• forklift: before loading, make sure that forks are adequately protected for avoiding to damage fan parts;
• crane: fix adequate supports on the housing and then hook the lifting cable on them.
3.3 Structure
The fans consist of the following components:
•fan housing in plastic, with steel supporting structure;
•propeller air foil design blades made in plastic; blades re-fixed to a corrosion proof aluminum hub;
•motor: single-phase or three-phases; 50 Hz; F class winding insulation, IP 55 IEC protective class;
•a version with high efficiency Munters Drive motor is available for TU600 and TU 800;
•a plastic damper assuring tightenness to air when fan is not in operation.
Make sure a steel cable or rope of adequate size is being used when the fan is
lifted by crane. Fan weights are shown in the technical specification table (see
section 7.2).

Chimney fans, such as the TU600 and TU800, are products to to extract the air from a structure, thereby creating
air movement inside the structure which helps to keep under control temperature in livestock buildings.
Normal ambient temperature limits are –25°C to +50°C. Maximum altitude is 1000m above sea level. Should
a fan be required to operate at a higher altitude, the loss in mass flow (heat removing capacity) due to lower air
density should be taken into consideration.

Procedure:
1. remove the cover from the controller housing for the connection;
2. all 3 cable entry points are in a sealed condition at delivery; remove plastic fastener if necessary, and insert
cable gland, entry points that are not used must remain sealed;
3. insert and connect lines correctly;
4. attach cover of controller housing again carefully in correct position before startup.

InstallationChapter5
• Temperatures up to 85°C can be present on the controller housing;
• to connect, always use heat resistant wires or, as an alternative, silicon tubes;
• self-tapping screws are used for the ‘PE’ conductor connection; these cannot
be loosened and sufficiently retightened infinitely;
• remants from installation and foreign object may not remain on the inside.

5.5 Electrical wiring
The fan is delivered without an electrical control box. Connection to the power supply must be done by means of a
thermal overload protection switch, whose size depends on motor power. For safety reasons the overload switch
can be locked by a padlock, not supplied by Munters.
The installer must provide a suitable control box in compliance with requirements specified by EN 60204 rules.
Electrical earthing must be carried out according to local regulations before the motor is connected to the supply
voltage.
InstallationChapter5
In order to comply with CE regulations, fans must be mounted so that the bottom
of the fan is 2.7m or higher from the floor below it.

Standard fan motors have the following voltage and frequency:
• 230/400V three-phase 50 Hz
• 230V single phase 50 Hz
InstallationChapter5
Failure to operate the fan with an overload protection device will render the
motor guarantee null and void. Such motor overload protection devices can be
ordered from Munters and be supplied with the fans.
NOTE
!
Motor specifications are written on the label stuck on the motor. Before operating
the fan, make sure the motor turns in a way to move the air from bell mount
towards outside of the building. To change the direction of rotation of a three-
phase motor it is necessary to change the connection of two of the phases.
WARNING
!
The connection cable must be completely extracted from the fan housing in order
to avoid being damaged by moving parts.

After installation, follow the steps mentioned below to verify that the fan is working properly:
1. check if all the fans are secured tightly to the roof or metal structure;
2. ensure that all fans are installed according to safety requirements;
3. ensure that all electrical connections are done properly and comply with local regulations;
4. note in which direction the propellers are supposed to turn, in a way to move the air from bell mount
towards outside of the building;
5. remove all obstacles from the front and back sides of the fans;
6. ensure that all people and animals are standing clear of the fans;
7. turn the electrical power to the fans on;
8. observe the direction in which the propeller of each of the fans are turning to ensure that it is in the same
direction;
9. turn the electrical power to the fans off.
Commissioning 6.
Do not attempt to correct any problem observed during the above mentioned
steps while the fan is in operation. Wait until the electrical power has been
switched off and the fan has come to a complete stand still. Lock the electrical
switch in the off position with a pad lock while working on the fan.
