Danger due to electric current
•It is generally forbidden to carry out work on electrical live parts. Protection class of the device when
open is IP00! It is possible to touch hazardous voltages directly.
•When the motor runs independently due to air flowing through or if it continues to run down after
being turned off, dangerous voltages of over 50 V can arise on the motor internal connections
through operation of the generator.
•The safe isolation from the supply must be checked using a two-pole voltage detector.
•Even after disconnecting the mains voltage, life-threatening charges can appear between the
protective ground “PE” and the mains connection.
•The protective earth is conducting high discharge currents (dependent on the switching frequency,
current-source voltage and motor capacity). Earthing in compliance with EN specifications shall
therefore be observed even for testing and trial conditions (EN 50 178, Art. 5.2.11). Without
earthing, dangerous voltages can be present on the motor housing.
•Maintenance work may only be carried out by suitably qualified personnel.
Waiting period at least 3 minutes!
•Through use of capacitors, danger of death exists even after switching off the device through
directly touching the energized parts or due to parts that have become energized due to faults.
•The controller housing may only be removed or opened when the power line has been switched off
and a period of three minutes has elapsed since switching it off.
Attention, automatic restart!
•The fan / motor may switch on and off automatically for functional reasons.
•After power failure or mains disconnection an automatic restart of the fan takes place after voltage
return!
•Wait for the fan to come to a complete standstill before approaching it!
Danger of being sucked in!

3 Product overview
3.1 Application operational area
The fans / motors are not ready-for-use products, but conceived as components for ventilation
systems (type designation see rating plate).
The fans may not be operated until they are installed in line with their intended use. The supplied and
certified guard grille of ZIEHL-ABEGG SE fans is designed in accordance with DIN EN ISO 13857
Table 4 (from the age of 14 up). In the event of deviations, further structural protective measures must
be taken for safe operation.
3.2 Functional description
AMblue stands for fans with asynchronous motor and mounted frequency inverter “PMIcontrol”.
By transferring the motor and fan parameters to the frequency inverter, optimum operation at every
operating point is possible thus giving you a drive system of maximum efficiency.
The devices are constructed in accordance with the general requirement in EN 61800-2 for adjustable
speed electrical power systems and is intended for one-quadrant drives.
This assembly manual describes combinations of fans and frequency inverters in different models and
frame sizes.
3.3 Criteria for long service life
The service life of devices with power electronics is decisively dependent on the ambient temper-
atures. The longer electronic components are exposed to high ambient temperatures, the faster the
deterioration and the more probable the failures.
The device electronics are designed for a service life of at least 40,000 h in S1 mode with maximum
power at maximum admissible ambient temperature.
In order to achieve this, the device protects itself by active temperature management.
3.4 Note on the ErP directive
ZIEHL-ABEGG SE wishes to point out that, based on the directive (EU) no. 327/2011 of the Commis-
sion of 30th of March 2011 for enforcing directive 2009/125/EC (hereinafter referred to as ErP
directive), the operational area of certain fans within the EU is bound by certain prerequisites.
The fan may only be used within the EU when it meets the requirements of the ErP directive.
If the said fan does not have a CE mark (cf. especially the rating plate), use of this product within the
EU is not admissible.
All ErP-relevant information comprises measurements which are determined using a standardised
measurement set-up. More details can be obtained from the manufacturer.

•Check the fan for damage, e.g. cracks, dents or damage to the electric cables, before assembly.
Start-up is not allowed in the case of transport damage!
•Mounting is only to be undertaken by trained service personnel. The system manufacturer or the
machine builder and/or the user is responsible that the inherent installation and security information
are harmonized with the valid standard and guidelines (EN ISO 12100 / 13857).
•Wear safety shoes and gloves for handling!
•Lift the fan out of the packaging with a lifting gear (lifting beam). Attachment points are solely the
holes on the housing flange, motor bed, support plate, motor suspensions, fastening brackets and
any crane eyes of the fan (depending on the shape of the fan).
•The chain/rope may not touch the impeller and the possibly mounted frequency inverter when lifting
with the lifting beam, otherwise damage is possible.
•At a weight greater than 25 kg for men / 10 kg for women, the device should be lifted out by two
persons (according to REFA). The values may differ from country to country.

•Prior to installing the fan, it is to be checked whether the safety zone as per EN ISO 13857 and in
household appliances as per EN 60335 are met. If the installation height (danger zone) above the
reference level is greater than or equal to 2700 mm and is not reduced by auxiliary means such as
chairs, ladders, work platforms or bases on vehicles, a guard grille against accidental contact is not
necessary at the fan.
•If the fan is located in danger zone, then the manufacturer or operator shall ensure that hazards
shall be prevented by appropriare protective constuctions which meet the requirements to EN ISO
13857.
•Protective measures must be taken against falling parts when mounting with a hanging rotor.
•The custom designs must suit the prevailing conditions.
•Tighten the fastenings with the specified torques.
•Do not allow drilling chips, screws and other foreign bodies to reach the device interior!
•Any use below -10 °C is dependent on not being subjected to unusual, sudden or mechanical loads
or stresses on the material (min. ambient temperature
Technical data).
•Corrosion is possible at the cutting edges on sendzimir galvanised parts.
•Before the first switch-on, remove any items that may be present (borings, screws and other foreign
objects) from the intake area - risk of injury from any objects that may fly out!
4.2 Permissible position of the mounted frequency inverter
Only a horizontal position of the device is allowed, because only in this position specified housing
protection class IP54 is ensured.
4.3 Erecting the equipment Design ER
Use screws, for example, of strength class 8.8 according to DIN EN ISO 4014 to fasten the fan.
"Secure the screws with a suitable screw lock.
"Tighten the fastenings with the specified torques ( Table).
"After an operating time of approx. 1 hr. re-check the torque of the screwed connection with the
necessary MA.

Ensure that the clearance (gap) “a” see fig. between
the fan impeller and the stationary housing section is
constant. Distortion due to uneven surface may lead to
fan failure.
Information
•Every screwing case is different. If the strength class of the screws differs from strength class 8.8,
you must determine the adapted tightening torque by appropriate screw tests.
•Structure-borne noise decoupling of the complete centrifugal fan is recommended to avoid
transmission of disturbing vibrations. (Spring or damping elements are not usually parts of the
standard scope of supply). The assignment of the spacing dimensions of the damping elements can
be taken from the catalogues on our home page under www.ziehl-abegg.de in the section
Download - Ventilation and Control Engineering.
•Erect in the open air only if this is expressly mentioned and confirmed in the ordering information.
There is a risk of damage to the bearings if the fan remains stopped in a moist environment. Avoid
corrosion by suitable protective measures. Roofing is required.
•Corrosion is possible at the cutting edges on sendzimir galvanised parts.
Attention!
•Connect all contact points securely to the foundation or plant. If not fastened sufficiently, there is a
risk of the fan tipping over or coming loose - danger of injury!
•The screwed connection that connects the impeller to the hub may never be loosened for any work
on the fan! The impeller and hub form a commonly balanced assembly which may only be
disassembled and installed as a complete unit. Merely loosening this screwed connection can lead
to imbalance and therefore to vibrations even if the screws are connected again correctly before
recommissioning!
•Blocking or braking the fan by, say, pushing objects into it is forbidden. This leads to heated
surfaces and damage to the impeller.
•Making your own alterations/conversions on the fan module is unacceptable - safety risk!
•Please note the following for all types of centrifugal fans:
–Avoid structural damage or stress with installation. Make sure the surface is flat and even.
–Add-on parts (depending on the design: flanges, fastening brackets, frames, rails, support plates,
etc.) must lie flat on the contact surfaces.
–Do not use force, do not lever, do not bend.
–Do not bend fan roller or fan wheel and blades - imbalance!
–Important: Deformations and misalignments must not result in the striking or grinding of rotating
parts!

4.5 Assembly in a humid atmosphere
Information
If a fan / motor is stationary for long periods in a humid atmosphere, it should be switched ON for
minimum of two hours every month to remove any moisture that may have condensed within the
motor.
4.6 Connection lead & terminal box
Information
In demanding environments (wet rooms, outdoor installation), connecting cables must have water
draining pipe elbows. If a terminal box is mounted near to the fan, this must be installed lower than the
mounted PMIcontrol to ensure that water cannot penetrate through the connecting cables.
4.7 Cable inlet
Attention!
Only use lines which can guarantee a permanent seal around the cable glands (pressure-resistant,
dimensionally-stable, round-centred jacket; e.g. by means of gusset filling)! Lines with filling fleece are
not permissible because moisture can penetrate due to the capillary effect!
"Remove the terminal compartment cover.
"All 6 cable entry points are in a sealed condition at delivery (each 3 on long side). Remove plastic
fastener depending on the need and insert appropriate cable glands (not in scope of delivery). The
manufacturer's specifications for tightening torque and sealing area must be observed! Entry points
that are not used must remain sealed!

The following information or presettings can be found on the stick:
•Max. operating point related to the fan (e.g. max. speed)
•Functions of the signal inputs and signal outputs.
•Extended motor data (not changeable!)
6.2 Function
After the inverter is supplied with voltage, it checks whether there is a ZAstick in the slot provided.
If a ZAstick is detected, the inverter searches for matching data records, lads these and saves them
internally as a factory setting. The procedure lasts a few seconds and is ended with a single flashing
code of the status LED (
table).
Information
This installation procedure already takes place prior to delivery for PMblue and AMblue fans.
The stick can then be left in the slot or removed at any time. However, it is recommended to leave it
plugged into the device to avoid losing it.
Attention!
It is not allowed to use a ZAstick that is intended for another fan!
The fan could be parametrised with a speed which exceeds the maximum permissible speed of the fan
impeller! This can damage or destroy the impeller!
