Setting up your fan
Your SonicAire Pro Series fan comes completely assembled. The parts needed for
installation are included in your package unless otherwise noted. If you have chosen
additional accessories for your fan, please refer to the corresponding accessory manual
for instructions regarding installation and operation.
Placing your fan
We recommend that you manually clean your facility’s overhead area before
turning on your fan(s). The dust build up must be reduced to below the minimum
explosive concentration (MEC) level. Disconnect power from ALL OTHER equipment
during start-up to prevent a hazardous condition.
Ensure the chosen structure is suitable to support a 250lb (115kg) load (SonicAire
recommends consulting with a structural engineer prior to installing the fan or penetrating
structural elements).
DO NOT locate the fan near humidifiers or adiabatic coolers that produce free moisture
(water) that may accumulate on the fan.
If you need assistance with a layout or system design to make sure the effective cleaning
distance is not exceeded, please contact SonicAire.
DO NOT use this fan with any solid state speed device.
1 Determine where you will mount your fan. Use the dimensions in Figure 1.1 to
ensure:
a The fan should have clearance to rotate 360° without colliding with any
overhead objects. Please allow 6 inches of clearance in all directions.
b The bottom of the fan should be at least 8.5ft (2.7m) above the floor or other
nearby walking surfaces. If the fan will be mounted less than 8.5 ft (2.7m)
above the ground, please contact SonicAire for a Fan Guard Kit (FGK).
Tip: For large overhead obstructions, locate fans on each side of the objects to achieve
maximum cleaning capacity.

1 Secure the enclosure to the building structure using the mounting holes on the
outside of the enclosure.
2 Use correct fittings for field wiring type and connect field wiring fittings or conduit
to the TBE.
3 Install conductors as indicated in Figure 1.9.
IV. Start up your fans
1 Turn ON the power to each fan one at a time.
2 Check for proper rotation of the fan blades.
3 If the air is not blowing out of the fan discharge, change two of the electrical leads
at the local disconnect switch to change the direction of the fan rotation.
4 Observe the fan as it oscillates through one complete cycle to ensure the fan has
proper clearance and there is no apparent binding of the iDrive system.
Your SonicAire®fan is now ready for operation.
Maintaining your fan
Continuous operation
SonicAire fans are designed so that they can operate continuously. In order for the fan
to create an effective overhead barrier to prevent dust accumulation, the fan MUST be
running during production.
CAUTION: It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that the fans are operated
frequently enough that a “dust cloud” is not produced by the fan(s). SonicAire fans are
not designed or intended to be used as a “blow down” tool, and should not be used as
such. Dust concentrations must remain below Minimum Explosive Concentration (MEC)
levels.
If the fans will not be operated continuously, they should be operated frequently enough
that when turned on, no visible quantities of dust can be seen in the atmosphere. If dust
is visible when the fan started from a “cold” state, the fan should be operated more
frequently.
The SonicAire fan is designed to rotate continuously through a full 360° circle. While
rotating, the fan discharge will oscillate through the chosen angle as determined by the

SonicAire Compact Pro Series (380v)
Owner’s Manual
8
iDrive settings. Since the oscillation of the fan discharge and the rotation of the fan are
not synchronized, the fan is directing air at a different angle each time it passes through
a complete 360° of rotation (approximately every 20 minutes). This design assures that
all of the overhead structures, and plant equipment, if desired, is thoroughly cleaned.
Electrical information
All owner furnished electrical service and components must meet
the requirements of local/national codes. All SonicAire fans must
have individual circuit protection. Failure to use individual circuit
protection will void the equipment warranty.
CAUTION
The SonicAire Pro205 fan motor is a three-phase 1.5kw/2 hp motor which operates
through a VFD at 1725 rpm when supplied with 50 Hz power (or a 0.75kW/1 hp motor for
the Pro105 Series. The Pro105 motor operates at 1450 rpm at 50 Hz). The indexing gear
motor is a sealed three phase, 12W, 1/56 HP motor running at 0.7 RPM (at 60Hz) for the
Pro205 and 0.59 rpm (at 50 Hz) in the case of the Pro105. Power is transmitted to the
fan motor and gear motor through a 30 amp slip ring mounted in the unified electrical
enclosure (See Wiring Diagrams, p. 16-17).
