RANGE
Trickle Speed 1 - 13 lt/sec - 47 m³/h
Trickle Speed 2 - 19 lt/sec - 68 m³/h
EL1203 - this fan combines the latest technology with
energy saving and e󰀩ciency. It is a quiet running,
3 speed fan. It is designed to run continuously at a
pre-selectable choice of 2 trickle speeds (xed at in-
stallation). The user can boost the fan speed to its
maximum performance when required by means of
a remote switch, light switch, PIR sensor or humidis-
tat.
EL1203DT - 3 speed, continuous running fan with de-
lay-on timer. The delay-on timer version will run at low
speed until the boost speed is activated by means of a
remote switch, light switch, PIR sensor or humidistat.
There is a 2 minute delay before the fan starts to run
at its high speed - if the boost speed is deactivated
before that time lapse, the fan will continue to run at
low speed. If the boost speed is activated, the fan will
operate at high speed until the boost switch is turned
o󰀨. After this, the fan will continue at high speed for
the length of time set on the timer overrun adjustment,
between 0 and 30 mins. (See page 8). After the over-
run time has elapsed, the fan will return to the slower
speed.
EL1203HDT - 3 speed, continuous running fan. The
fan runs continuously at the pre-selected lower speed,
and the boost (speed 2) will start to operate automat-
ically when the relative humidity (adjustable between
40% and 90% +/-5% tolerance) reaches the pre-set
level and will continue to operate at this speed until
the humidity has been dispersed and the adjustable
over-run timer (adjustable from 0 to 30 minutes) has
completed its cycle. The boost speed can also be acti-
vated by as described for model EL1203DT

INSTALLATION
1. check there is nothing missing in box.
2. remove front cover.
3. drill hole in wall - allow extra width if using
ducting - it is the installer’s responsibility
to use the appropriate core cutter to obtain
the correct hole diameter.
4. use fan assembly as template to mark drill
hole
5. drill 4 x 6mm dia holes
6. fit wall plugs
7. decide whether to have cable access from
rear (recessed see dia. 7/A) or top (surface)
of fan - if from top ensure that included
grommet is properly fixed (see dia.7/B).

9.
screw fan to wall
connect cable using cable clamp (see dia 9).
N.B. this fan is double insulated and does
not need to be earthed
10. replace front cover and screw on firmly
N.B. This fan is NOT suitable for use with
a Gravity Grille. It should be installed using
either a Cowl or Fixed Grille.
IMPORTANT
If the fan is installed in a ceiling with a vertical duct
passing through an unheated space, a condensa-
tion trap MUST be tted. Any ducting in an unheat-
ed space should also be insulated according to
the latest Building Regulations recommendations
in the Domestic Ventilation Compliance Guide.
Failure to do this could result in condensation af-
fecting the operation of the fan and cause dam-
age to the ceiling.

TRIMMER ADJUSTMENT
To adjust the humidistat and timer
trimmers, remove the front cover of the fan
(fig 13) to access the trimmers.
The humidistat (HY) can be adjusted
between 40% and 90% relative humidity.
Turn clockwise to decrease sensitivity
and set at a higher level of relative
humidity. The timer (TM) is adjustable
between 0 and 30 minutes. Turn the
trimmer clockwise to increase the overrun
time, or anti-clockwise to decrease it.
.
MAINTENANCE
Before any maintenance or
cleaning operation, switch
off the fan and disconnect
it from the main power sup-

cleaned with a dry cloth or
soft brush The fan must not
come into contact with any
kind of liquid or solvent. If
this should occur, contact
a qualified technician be-
fore reassembling the fan.
