unqualified tradesperson.
• Motor must be accessible for servicing purposes. If not, servicing may be refused unless access can be provided.
Prior to install please check minimum & maximum installation details on the Sirius website, FAQ under support tab.
Service is offered during normal business hours only, also appliances to have a clear access in a serviceable area.
• The ducting of the rangehood must not be connected to ducting which is used for exhausting other fumes from
appliances, such as central heating, boilers etc.
• For the external exhausting of the fumes, comply with the Australian building standards.
• Ventilate the room suitably according to the Australian building standards when the appliance is working together with
gas or oil appliances.
• The SEM motor is powered by the rangehood. Standard 10AMP GPO at the point of rangehood required.
• Before connecting the rangehood to the mains supply, make sure that the voltage indicated in the rating plate
corresponds to the mains voltage in the home.
• Before carrying out any sort of maintenance or cleaning operation, make sure that the appliance is disconnected from
the electrical mains.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION BEFORE INSTALLATION IN YOUR SIRIUS RANGEHOOD
• FLASHING NOT INCLUDED
• Sirius has metal and tiled roof flashing available in various sizes from your retailer,
or visit www.siriusbrand.com
• Rangehood and SEM5 XS316 must be a minimum of 2 metres between rangehood and motor for noise reduction
reasons.
• Only use ducting that falls within the necessary minimum and maximum length requirements as specified in the
installation guide.
• Try and minimise bends to the ducting for optimum performance.
• Use only suitable ducting as specified by Sirius. Under no circumstances is flexible ducting to be used as it creates
unwanted noise, vibration and can place the motor under unnecessary stress resulting in premature failure of the SEM
motor.
• Under no circumstances is the duct diameter is the duct diameter to be reduced. A constant minimum diameter of
150mm for the SEM 5 must be maintained at all times.
• Read the mounting and operating instructions of the rangehood carefully.
• The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for a decrease of the airflow or for an increase of noise level caused by
non-compliance with the instructions above.

1. Pre determine the exit point where the roof
penetration will be and prepare a hole of 205 mm to
accommodate the motor flue.
2. Fix the Internal Bracket on the inside of the roof
cavity using the 9 x 25mm Screws Supplied in
the packaging. (Fig. 1) Please note that if there is
no timber supports to hold the Internal bracket,
horozontal timber supports (not supplied) may need to
be fitted.
3. Fit the roof flashing to the 200mm diameter steel
pipe (as on Fig. 2) and insert the pipe through the
roof penetration and internal bracket. Sirius Roof
Flashing can be purchased through your retailer or at
Siriusbrand.com. Metal roof flashing code: MRF G178,
Tiled Roof Flashing code: TRF G075
4. Fix the 200mm pipe to the internal bracket with the 8 x
supplied 9.5mm screws. Please note that the 200mm
pipe has no pre drilled holes and will need to be drilled
at the desired height by the installer. A minimum of
100mm exposed section of 200mm pipe is required to
accomodate the flashing. (Fig. 3)

NOTE
Please be aware for noise reasons the the
SEM51 motor is required to be a minimum or 2
metres from the location of the rangehood. 3-5
metres is best practice installation.
The motor has a 7 metre long control cable
which cannot be lengthened under any
circumstances. Any attempt to modify this
product in any way will immediately void the
manufacturer warranty.

5. Once the 200mm pipe is securely fitted to the internal
bracket, connect 150mm ducting to the motor.
Please note, do not use screws to fix the ductwork
to this section as it will prevent the non return valves
from opening during operation. Low grade flexible
ducting should not be used under any circumstances
as it will void the manyfacturer warranty. A minimum
requirement semi rigid duct work can be used. See
approved range of ducting at www.siriusbrand.com
6. Feed the attached ductwork and power cable through
the 200mm section of pipe into the roof cavity. (Fig. 4)
7. Fix the motor to the exposed section of the 200mm
pipe and secure in place with the supplied 8 x 5mm
screws. Please note that the exit point on the motor
needs to be positioned on the low side of the pitch on
the roof. (Fig 5.)
8. Run the motor power cable back to the location of
the rangehood and plug in the connections. Follow
the MOTOR WIRING CONNECTION instructions on
page 4 of this manual to connect the motor to the
rangehood.
(Fig. 5)

(Fig. 4)
9. Run the ductwork from the motor location back to the
location of the rangehood. Connect the ductwork to
the plastic outlet collar on the rangehood and secure
in place. Please note, do not use screws to fix the
ductwork to the rangehood as it will prevent the non
return valves from opening during operation.
10. Plug the rangehood into a 10 amp GPO located within
1 Metre of the rangehood. Press the red reset button
until you feel a click, you will now have power to the
hood and motor and can begin operation of your
Sirius Rangehood.
Note: Never reduce the ducting diameter under any
circumstances as it will severly effect the performance
and increase noise level of your rangehood.
A 150mm constant diameter duct run is required.
Avoid abrupt changes in direction of your ductwork.
For every 90 degree bend, reduce your maximum
duct length by 1 metre. Example: 2 x 90 degree bend,
maximum duct length should not exceed 5 metres.
Sirius strongly recommend that the installation of
the SEM51 motor should only be performed by a
suitably qualified tradesperson. Sirius will not be held
responsible for any ongoing issues due to incorrect or
sub standard installation by an unqualified installer.
