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 ra-
dial fan and thoroughly conceived
accessories (RTV 30 only) makes
the unit into a particularly versatile
solution for air circulation.
Due to its specially adapted air
guidance function, the turbo fan
generates a wide airflow close
to the floor over wet flooring or
moist screen. This airflow optimally
distributes the room air and thus
noticeably increases the drying
speed.
But even in the case of supported
wall and floor drying after water
damage or as an aid in the dry-
ing of screed and buildings under
construction, the units can render
valuable services.
Through the connection of tubes
(RTV 30 only), particularly targeted
ventilation or drying of hollow
spaces is possible.
The units are also ideal for the
effective support of dehumidifiers
in the drying of buildings under
construction.
Depending on the respective envi-
ronment and temperature, the dry-
ing time can be drastically reduced
by the combination of dehumidifi-
ers and the high-performance fan.
The units can be adjusted in three
different mounting angles (0°, 45°,
and 90°).
When high-performance fans
are used, people must be
aware of any risks that arise.

Before using for the first time
■ The correct unit setup and as-
sembly of any accessories used
must be checked.
Switching on the device
■ Switch the unit to the desired
power level using the 3-speed
selector switch.
Commissioning
NOTE
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 cylinder.
■ 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
mains supply.
■ Clean the unit and store it in a
dry location, free of dust and
direct sunlight.
Electrical connection
■ The 230V electrical connection
is implemented using a fitted
mains cable with safety plug.
■ Connect the mains plug with a
properly installed and secured
mains socket.
■ All cable extensions must only
be used uncoiled or unwound.
