7.5. UNIT INSTALLATION
The unit can be mounted on floor, wall and false ceiling. To prevent the transmission of vibra-
tions, appropriate anti-vibration mounts must be installed in the mounting position and the type
of surface on which the unit is mounted.For wall mounting, the unit must be supported on the
4 existing support points.
7.6. ASSEMBLY OF ADDITIONAL FILTERS / DISASSEMBLY OF FILTERS
Depending on the version, the unit is supplied with one or two filters located inside it.In the
versions with a filter it is possible to add a second filter (order as accessory).In all the versions
it is possible to locate a prefilter.To mount the additional filters, follow the following sequence:
Mounting an additional filter
The UVF-ECOWATT ventilation boxes allow the assembly of up to 3 stages of filtration inside,
located as follows:
A. Filter holder with clamping arms in which it is located
the filter supplied as standard and that has capacity to
have a second filter.
B. Guide filter holder in which it is possible to locate a pre-
filter (G4 or M5).
To add a second filter it is necessary to follow the following steps:
Remove the filter registration cover by turning the exis-
ting closing hands on the side and back loosened of
these (1). Then, tilt the lid towards the side opposite the
closing hands (2).

22
To release the filter or filters, loosen the two threaded
knobs that hold each support (a), and move the arms un-
til leaving enough space to remove the filter or filters (b).
Remove used filters
and replace them with
the new ones, respec-
ting the sense date of
airflow found in the
frame.
The microfilters used in the UVF-ECOWATT boxes are high efficiency filters that can not be
cleaned. Cleaning these filters can damage them and affect the degree of filtration.
Disassembly the prefilter:
Rotate the lower stops with shape
triangular (a) holding the prefilter.
Release the prefilter, making it slide by
the guides (2).

7.7. CONNECTING THE UNIT TO THE DUCT SYSTEM
• Never use the unit as a support or weight-bearing structure for ductwork.
• Connect the unit to the air ducts using flexible connectors to prevent vibrations from
being transmitted to the duct system.
• Check to make sure air intake and flow are not being blocked and that there are no
obstacles impeding good air circulation. Failure to do so will affect the efficiency of
the system.
7.8. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
IMPORTANT!
To avoid contamination of the filters included in the unit, they are supplied in plastic bags.
Prior to the start-up of the unit, it is necessary to remove these bags and reassemble the
filters making sure that the air sense matches the one indicated in the filter frame.
• Before putting the unit in place, make sure that the nominal supply voltage matches that
listed on the unit’s identification plate.
• It should be installed with cables whose cross-section meets current regulations and pre-
vents overheating and voltage drops that exceed permissible limits. Current regulations
must be obeyed, and the designer’s instructions must be followed at all times.
• Before connecting the cables, make sure that the electricity is turned off and that there is
no voltage present in any of them.
• The installer must keep the following points in mind when performing the electrical con-
nections:
− After these steps are performed, check to make sure all electrical connections are secu-
re (loose wiring connections can cause irreparable damage).
− As a safety measure, if there is no power to the fan, the necessary interlocks must be
performed so that all other electrical components are also de-energised.
The power supply is made in the external terminal box. In no case it is necessary open the
fan access register during electrical connection work.This record should only be opened
in annual maintenance tasks to verify the state of the fan or in case it requires its replace-
ment.

7.9. CONNECTING THE PRESSURE SENSORS
7.9.1. Dirty filters
The unit is equipped with 2 pressure taps on each side of the filters so that a pressure switch
can be installed to control dirt levels in the filters.
Section 9.3. presents a table with the values recommended for filter replacement.
8. ADJUSTING OF THE FAN SPEED
All models of the UVF-ECOWATT range have an integrated potentiometer inside the electrical
cabinet that allows the manual adjustment of the fan speed.
It is not necessary to open the fan access register during connection workelectric.
Depending on the existing jumper position next to the potentiometer, it is possible to select
the type of regulating element between the manual potentiometer integrated in the plate, or
an external control signal of type 0-10V.

Using the control accessory AERO-REG CONTROL, it is possible to control the speed of
the fans from an external sensor (CO2, humidity, pressure). See the details on connec-
tion in the AERO-REG CONTROL instructions.

9. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
In these operations we must take into account the following aspects:
9.1. MOTORS
• Check the power consumption has not increased.
• Periodically check the electrical connections are making good contact; this will prevent
breakdowns.
• We recommend checking the fan mounting periodically.
9.2. FANS
• Every three months, clean the dirt from the fan blades and bearings, since dirt can not only
reduce airflow but also lead to unbalanced operation and increase noise.
• Periodically, test the airflow on each fan.
9.3. FILTERS
• To make sure that the filters are working properly, the pressure loss across the filter must
be monitored precisely (since this is an indicator of dirt levels). The following table indicates
the maximum recommended values for pressure loss before filter replacement.
Filter G4 M5 M6 F7 F8 F9
Loss of charge (Pa) 150 200 200 200 225 225
• Even if the maximum pressure loss has not been reached, filters should be inspected each
month to make sure that the filter and filter housing are sealed.
• It is not recommended that filters be washed, since they will never recover their initial
efficiency and doing so can produce wear on the filters. Although washing or vacuuming in
the opposite direction from normal air circulation can achieve an optimal finish, it is recom-
mended that you always have a set of replacement filters on hand. Under no circumstances
should the unit be run without filters, since this can introduce dirt into vital components of
the unit and lead to equipment wear and loss of efficiency.
