Safety notices Description of the unit
NOTE
Only authorised electricians
may extend the connecting
cable, taking into account the
rating of the unit , cable length
and local use.
The units were subjected to ex-
tensive material, functional and
quality inspections and tests prior
to delivery.
The units can however constitute
a hazard if used improperly by
untrained persons or not for the
intended purpose.
Always observe the following
safety information:
■The locally applicable building
and other regulations must be
observed.
■The operator is responsible for
correct installation of the units,
correct electrical installation and
safe operation of the units.
■The units must always be set up
and operating in a stable man-
ner.
■The units may be set up and
operated only in an environment
not at risk of fire or explosion.
■The units must not be set up
and operated in aggressive envi-
ronments.
■Protect the environment and
yourself from any flying parts.
■Safety components such as
protection grids must be neither
dismantled nor decommissioned.
■The units must only be operated
within the specified capacity
limits.
■The air inlets including grilles
must be kept free of dirt and
loose objects at all times.
■The air inlet and outlet must not
be closed.
■Never insert foreign objects into
the device.
■The unit must not be subjected
to a direct jet of water.
■Never allow water to enter the
unit.
■All electric cables of the units
must be protected against dam-
age e.g. by animals, etc.
■The unit musst not be transport-
ed during operation.
■People who use the unit must
be familiar with the risks arising
with the use of conveying fans.
■Use hearing protection when
in the vicinity of the unit for a
longer period of time.
The combination of a powerful
axial fan and thoroughly conceived
accessories for the connection of
air distributor hoses makes RAV 30
a particularly versatile solution for
aeration and ventilation, air circula-
tion and cold or hot air transport,
even over longer distances.
RAV 30 is also ideal for the effective
support of dehumidifiers in the dry-
ing of buildings under construction.
Due to fast air movement, the layer
of high air moisture on the material
is broken up and the evaporation
rate increases. Walls, ceilings, and
floors thus dry faster! The higher
the flow speed on the moist mate-
rial surface, the faster the drying
process takes place.
Depending on the respective envi-
ronment and temperature, the dry-
ing time can be drastically reduced
by the combination of dehumidifiers
and the RAV 30 high-performance
fan.
Through the use of additional fans,
the evaporation is accelerated,
whereby the drying process can be
reduced by up to 50%.
The unit has tube connection
adapters on both sides, enabling a
high variety of uses.
The units are equipped with a
3-speed high-performance axial
fan, operating hours counter, and
mains cable with a 230 V Schuko
safety plug.
The units comply with the basic
health and safety requirements of
the pertinent EU regulations and
are easy to operate.
When high-performance fans
are used, people must be
aware of any risks that arise.

Electrical connection of the units
must be made at a separate
supply point using a residual-
current-operated circuit-breaker
according to VDE 0100 § 55.
Decommissioning
Care and maintenance
The units are virtually mainte-
nance-free in normal operation.
To ensure trouble-free operation,
however, they should be inspected
regularly and cleaned and/or
repaired if necessary according to
the respective conditions for use.
Cleaning the units
■ The units must be disconnected
from the supply in all poles and
locked to prevent unauthorised
reconnection.
■ The protective grids for the air
inlets must be cleaned regularly
and replaced in case of dam-
age.
■ Clean all air inlets and air outlet
louvres.
■ Remove the protective grid
before cleaning the fan blade.
■ Remove heavy soiling on the
fan and fan housing with a
soap solution.
■ The units must be cleaned only
dry or with a moist cloth and a
small amount of soap solution if
necessary.
■ Under no circumstances use
high-pressure cleaners or steam
jet equipment.
■ Do not use caustic cleaning
agents or cleaning agents con-
taining solvents.
■ Avoid causing damage when
using compressed air.
■ Set the operating switch to the
“0” position.
■ Read the operating hours coun-
ter.
For extended periods of non-
use:
■ Disconnect the unit from the
