The central vacuum system, suitable for any kind of residential building (civilian housing, office, hotel, service sectoir),
consists of chased. wall-mounted or suspended ceiling - mounted PVC pipes network, which branches off into the various
locations. The suction pipe network is equipped with vacuum inlets where the user fits the suction hose.
The SISTEM - AIR central vacuum system, positioned in a service location, auto box or other utilization, is attached to the
vacuum pipe network. Activation of the central unit occurs by simply inserting the sleeve of the flexible cleaning hose into
any vacuum inlet. Depending on the type of hose (electrical or not) the central vacuum unit will be activated immediately
or after the switch on the flexible hose handle have been moved to the position"ON".

3 - DESCRIPTION OF THE BLOWING UNIT
• 3.1 Operating principles
The motor bodies are ideal for installation and business environments (hotels, public offices, industries..) and can be used
individually, or together with other motors. It is essential to use them in conjunction with a dust seperator.
The modular system permits to offer the best conditions corresponding to every requirement and regarding the vacuum
power. Therefore it is possibile to create different installations with 1, 2 or more motor groups in combination with dust
separators.
The blowing units should be selected according to the number of operators required and the specific needs of the system.
They should be installed in service rooms that are closed and protected from extreme weather conditions, dampness and
excessive temperature changes. You should also choose areas at some distance from heat sources, such as heaters or
central heating. Ensure the selected installation rooms are well aired and that the temperature inside does not exceed
40°C.At the planning stage, it is advisable to identify the best location for the separator with respect to the system, leaving
a reasonable amount of space for installation, use and maintenance.
The blowing power unit with side channel compresses the air, according to a dynamic principle, and operates with an impeller
that rotates without contact and therefore does not require maintenance. It has an integrated electrical motor where a dual
parallel flow impeller is attached to the end of the shaft.
The main control panel has electronic equipment to control the speed of the blowing unit as well as a keyboard to search for
faults and the maximisation of required performance on the plant. It also has a cooling system for the frequency converter, a
mains switch, circuit breaker switch for remote start-up, electrical connection terminal board and various cabling accessories
in compliance with legislation.

The SISTEM - AIR central vacuum unit has been designed to suction dust, objects of very small dimensions and dry
materials only. It must not be used for vacuuming textile stuffs, heavy materials, big-size bits and pieces, burnning and hot
material.
Never vacuum liquids!
The vacuum module must be used together with a SISTEM AIR filtering separator to vacuum dust or small scraps left over
from work.The air sucked in by the turbine must always be filtered.
Take particular care to ensure that no solid objects even very small ones, end up inside the turbine as this could cause
serious damage.
The machinery must be installed in humidity free areas and in rooms with a temperature lower than 40°C.
It is prohibited to vacuum materials at high risk of explosion (propellant powder) or materials that may be inert alone but which,
once vacuuemed and mixed in the dust collection container of the central system, may cause hazardous chemical reactions.
It is absolutely prohibited using the central vacuum system in an explosive atmosphere or outside of the standard values of
temperature, pressure and humidity.
Any use different from the ones expressely indicated is strictly
forbidden.
Any modification or adjustment of the system in order to vacuum a
specific material must be approved by the manufacturer, by means of
written autorization.
Any use other than that for which the system has been constructed,
represents an abnormal condition that may cause damage to the
equipment and may constitute a serious hazard to the user

The use of a central vacuum system presupposes the existence of a vacuum pipe network installed by qualified
personnel, who has already assessed the optimum location.
Several main rules to follow for correct installation are given below.
In structures of several levels-floors it will be necessary to locate it at the lowest point of the building. They should be
installed in service rooms that are closed and protected from extreme weather conditions, dampness and excessive
temperature changes. You should also choose areas at some distance from heat sources, such as heaters or central
heating where the the temperature inside does not exceed 40°C.
The ambient temperature has to be between -5°C and 40°C.
You should also bear in mind the positioning of the air discharge piping to the outside and the piping coming from the
vacuum system.
Ensure the selected installation rooms are well aired, the electric connections are adequate and that there is a reasonable
amount of space for installation, use and maintenance.
Provide clearance and good lighting around the unit, in order to allow maintenance, use and repair.
If you have any questions, please contact the Manufacturer's Support Service for assistance.
The vacuum unit should be installed in service rooms that are closed and that are adapted for the installation of such
kind of industrial machines.
In the following we proved several essential rules to be followed for correct installation within a building.
For the installation you need an adapted magnetic thermal safety switch on the frontal side of the unit.
The central vacuum system does not require any special anchoring. However, it does require that care be taken relative
to the support surface on which it will be placed; that surface must have the following characteristics:
•it must be solid
•it must be perfectly horizontal
•it must not be subject to vibrations
•it should not present disconnections that would render the system unstable

• 4.5 Type of installation
There exist multifaceted types of installations, depending on the dimensions, on the number of operators and on the type of
environment where the central vacuum has to be installed. The basic solution is composed of one vacuum unit and of one
separator, that are connected to a vacuum and discharge pipe net and to the power supply system. This basic solution can
be amplified referring to the number of blowing units as well as to the number of separators . The central vacuum unit must
be installed in places that are protected from extreme weather conditions, dampness or extreme temperature changes. The
room where you install it must be sufficiently spacious and well lit to provide easy access to the unit.
• 4.5.1 Example for installation with 1 blowing unit
• 4.5.2 Example for installation with 2 or more blowing units
Example for basic installation, with 1 electronic blowing unit and 1 dust separator polveri with self-cleaning system.
Example for basic installation, with 3 electronic blowing units and 1 dust separator polveri with
self-cleaning system.
IMPORTANT: The use of 2 or more units requests the application
of check valves for every blowing unit
