other than the device in question, as well as malfunctions that result from incorrect installation or improper use of the device.
Aero air curtains are intended for indoor assembly only.
DO NOT COVER
WARNING: To avoid overheating - do not cover the device!
1.2. TRANSPORT
Prior to installing and taking the device out of the cardboard box, check whether the cardboard box has been damaged in any way
and/or the adhesive tape (installed at the company) has not been broken off or cut. It is recommended to check that the device’s

2.1 HORIZONTAL FAN: the maximum temperature of operation is 200°F; the rated voltage is 115*240 V/60Hz. The motor protection
level is IP44. The horizontal fan applied in the device with an advanced profile of blades and impeller geometry made of plastic
makes it possible to obtain air capacities up to 2648 CFM. The control of the electric motor as well as thermal protection of the
wind has been coupled with the control system which resulted in increasing safety of operation.
2.2 INSTALLATION HANDLES: Aero is characterized by simple, quick, and aesthetic assembly that can be performed on a wall
in horizontal position. There are from 2 to 3 installation handles attached (as an option) to the curtain (depending on the width
of the unit). Connections of electric wires have been specially designed not to interfere with the general aesthetic values of
the device. The name Aero includes devices that are 42, 62 and 82in long that, if necessary, can be additionally joined both
horizontally to achieve different air supply options: from the left to the right and the opposite. The reach of the air stream is
up to 10 ft.
IMPORTANT! Curtains with electric heaters may only be installed in a horizontal position.

ASSEMBLY/ DISASSEMBLY OF JUNCTION BOX COVER
To access the terminal block, remove the screws from the junction box cover and tilt it.
3.
HORIZONTAL ASSEMBLY USING INSTALATION HOLDERS.
It is possible to assemble Aero to the wall horizontally in two options:
OPTION I: Assembling handles with their arms faced downwards.
In this option you should first screw the installation holders to the wall (1) with intervals W1 for a 42in curtain (there are 2 installation
handles) and W1, W2 for 62in and 82in curtain (there are 3 installation handles) so that the handles' arms are levelled.
Then lift the curtain and assemble using screws (2) 1/4-UNC x 3/4 and plain washers (3). Tighten the screws (2) and close the handle's
covers (4).
ATTENTION! The minimum distance between the unit and the ceiling should be 4 in.

OPTION II: Assembling holders with their arms faced upwards.
Assembly consists in screwing brackets to the curtain (1). To mount the brackets to the curtain, with the housing upside down, punch
holes (5) from the outside in the shields (4) using a hammer. Click the shields on the brackets (1). Mount the brackets on the curtain
using 1/4-UNC x 3/4 screws (2) and washers (3). This assembly option allows for mounting brackets to the curtain first, and then
screwing the entire housing to the wall.
ATTENTION! The minimum distance between the unit and the ceiling should be 4 in.
IMPORTANT! Aero air curtains are not intended for the installation:
• Outdoors.
• In humid rooms.
• In rooms categorized as explosive environments.
• In rooms with very high levels of dustiness.
• In rooms with a hazardous atmosphere (due to the presence of copper and aluminum structural elements in the heat exchanger
and electric heaters).
• On suspended ceilings.
4.
CONNECTING POWER SUPPLY
IMPORTANT! The system must be equipped with protective equipment that guarantees the disconnecting of the device on all poles
of the power source.
Connection to the electric system must be performed by a duly authorized and qualified person following the supplied electrical wiring
diagram. Wire passes are located on the back side of the curtain: (1) – control wire packing, (2) – power wire packing.
IMPORTANT!
• It is recommended to connect wires to the terminal strip with previously clamped appropriate clip ends.
• Make sure that the space around the place where the air is sucked in by the curtains, as well as around the exhaust grid, is
free of any structural elements of the building, which might hamper the flow of air (e.g., suspended ceilings, covering
development, ventilating ducts etc.).

START-UP, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
6.1 START-UP/PUTTING INTO OPERATION
• Prior to the commencing of any installation or maintenance work, disconnect the power supply and secure it against unintentional
reactivation.
• It is recommended to verify the field wired electrical connections (of automatics, power supply), prior to the initial start-up of the
device. It is advised to use an additional, external residual current protection.
IMPORTANT! All connections should be carried out according to this technical documentation and the documentation delivered with
automation equipment.
6.2 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
• It is advised to carefully analyze all the operational and assembly guidelines listed in sections 3 and 4.
• The casing of the device does not require maintenance.
• The heater should be cleaned on a regular basis. It is highly recommended to clean before heating season with the use of
compressed air from the air intake side (after removing the inlet grid). You should pay special attention to the exchanger's
lamellae/ fins which are very delicate.
• The fan's motor does not require any maintenance, the only service activities that may be necessary concern cleaning the air
intakes on a regular basis.
• Disconnect phase voltage if the device is shut down for longer periods of time.
• The level of air pollutants should meet the criteria allowable concentrations of pollutants in indoor air, for non-industrial areas, the
level of dust concentration up to 1.87x10-5 lbs/ft3.
• Do not use the device for the duration of any construction work except for the start-up of the system.
• The equipment must be operated in rooms used throughout the year, and in which there is no condensation (large fluctuations
in temperature, especially below the dew point of the moisture content). The device should not be exposed to direct UV rays.
6.
INDUSTRIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT!
• Prior to the commencing of any work related to the device, it is required to disconnect the system, secure it properly and wait until
the fan stops revolving.
• Depending on the temperature of the heating medium, pipes, elements of casing and surfaces of the heat exchanger can be very
hot, even after the fan has stopped revolving.
• Sharp edges may be present! Wear gloves, protective shoes and clothing, when transporting or working on the device.
• Strictly observe safety guidelines and industrial safety regulations.
• Loads can be placed only in the previously selected areas on the transport unit. Protect the edges of the device, when lifting it,
using a set of machines. Remember to distribute weight evenly.
• The equipment must be protected against moisture and dirt and kept in rooms protected against the impact of weather conditions.
