ENGLISH
POWERVENT
The POWERVENT centrifugal range of in-line duct exhaust fans have been manufactured to the rigorous
standards of production as defined by the International Quality Standards ISO 9001. All the components have
been checked and tested at the end of the manufacturing process.
We recommend that you check the following after receiving this product:
1.The correct size has been received
2.The correct model has been received
3.The details on the rating label correspond to the electrical supply: voltage frequency etc.
Remove the unit from packaging and inspect for shipping damage within 15 days of receipt. If the product is
found to be damaged, immediately contact your local authorized supplier. DO NOT OPERATE THE UNIT
IF DAMAGED.
These instructions should be considered as a supplement to all applicable EPA standard practices, state and
local building code regulations.
ENVIRONMENT
The POWERVENT series of fans are suitable for operation in indoor environments only. All models are sui-
table for the exhaust and supply of non-hazardous airstreams.
INSTALLATION
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR INJURY, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:
(a)Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have any questions contact the
manufacturer.
(b)Before servicing or cleaning the unit, switch the power off at the service panel and lock the service
disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service dis-
connecting means cannot be locked; securely fasten a prominent warning device such as a tag to the
service panel.
(c)Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all
applicable codes & standards including fire rated construction.
(d)Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of
fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturers guide-
line and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)
and the American Society For Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and
the local code authorities.
(e)When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utili-
ties.
(f) Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
(g)If this unit is to be installed over a tub or a shower, it must be marked as appropriate for the applica-
tion and connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) – protected branch circuit.
(h)Never place a switch where it can be reached from a tub or shower.

(i) CAUTION: For General Ventilating Use Only. Do Not Use To Exhaust Hazardous Or Explosive Mate-
rials And Vapors.
(j) CAUTION: This unit has an unguarded impeller. Do Not Use In Locations Readily Accessible To People
Or Animals.
(k)All units are suitable for use with solid-state speed control.
The POWERVENT series can be mounted in any orientation, horizontal or vertical, and is suitable for numerous
types of applications.
If the installation is made to rigid or flexible ducting, then it is recommended that the correct diameter ducting
be used to couple to the fan flanges. If it is necessary to bend the duct at the discharge of the fan then the bend
radius should be as large as possible.
Before installing the product check the following points; (1) the fan impeller turns freely and (2) there are no
obstructions to the airflow.
All models include a robust mounting bracket, which enables easy and quick installation of the fan. See Figure
(1) Installation Diagrams For POWERVENT Duct Fans.
Ductwork connection should be made with duct tape or duct fast-clamps (available through your local HVAC
wholesale supplier) to ensure a good seal and secure connection.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
All POWERVENT series fans operate from a standard 120V 60Hz A.C electrical supply. All wiring must be ca-
rried out in accordance with National Electrical Code, and all applicable state and local buildings codes.
Electrical connections should be made in accordance with the electrical wiring diagrams shown in Figure (2)
Electrical Wiring.
MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT: BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE OR SERVICING, ENSURE THE UNIT IS
DISCONNECTED FROM THE MAINS ELECTRICAL SUPPLY.
All POWERVENT series exhaust fans incorporate sealed for life bearings and therefore do not require any lu-
brication. We would recommend inspection of the product at least once every twelve (12) months to avoid the
excessive accumulation of dust and dirt on the impeller. To inspect the unit disconnect from electrical supply and
remove from ducting. If any debris is evident on the impeller clean with a damp (not wet) cloth. DO NOT USE
any detergents or abrasive materials for cleaning.
