INSTALLATION

OPERATIONS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION

Comply with the following instructions before beginning to install the appliance:

- Make sure that all parts of the convector fan are in a perfect condition.

- Make sure that the appliance has not sustained damage during transport. Immediately notify the haulage contrac-

tor if damage is discovered. Check to make sure that the accessories required for installation and the relative documentation are included in the pack.

- Convey the packed appliance as near to the installation site as possible.

- Do not stack weights or place tools on top of the packed appliance.

CHOICE OF THE INSTALLATION SITE

Bear the following points in mind before installing the appliance:

- Position the appliance on a solid surface unable to cause vibrations and able to bear the weight of the structure.

- Install the appliance well away from heat or vapour sources and where the air intake and delivery are not obstruc-

ted.

- Position the appliance in a place where the condensation can easily flow away.

- Position the appliance in a place where the air can circulate all round the room.

- Ceiling-mounted units with open port air deliveries must be installed on the opposite side to:

• windows or large glazed areas

• entrance doors accessed fron outdoors.

This allows the air flow to efficiently oppose re-entering summer heat and winter dispersions. Only when the rooms are very long may the position be able to influence a flow of air on to a glazed surface. Ceiling-mounted units must never be installed over doors that open outdoors since they would mainly take in outdoor air and this would notably lower their efficiency.

- Do not install the appliance in places where there are inflammable gases or acid or alkaline substances which would irreparably damage the copper, aluminium heat exchangers or the plastic components.

- Do not install the appliance in workshops or kitchens where oil vapours mixed with the treated air could deposit on the heat exchange banks, thus reducing their performances, or on the internal parts of the unit which could be damaged.

TOOLS REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION

The following tools are required in order to install the convector fan:

- Pipe wrench for wet connections

- Flat cross-head screwdriver

- Drill

- Scissors

- Wire stripper

- Pipe cutters

- Pipe benders

- Measuring tape

- Level

- Goggles and protective gloves

Page 18

INSTALLATION

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

WARNING: always make sure that the electric power source has been disconnected before proceeding with any operation.

Refer to the wiring diagrams on pages 10-13 for the electrical connections. The appliance must be connected to the power supply by means of an omnipolar switch with contact opening distance of at least 3mm. Make sure the system is equipped with safety valves against the risk of excessive pressures. Fit a F 2A 250V fuse on the power line to protect the appliance against short-circuits. Panels equipped with an electronic thermostat (series TA-F, TAR-F, TE-F, TER-F) are all complete with a minimum water temperature probe. This allows the ventilating action to stop whenever the temperature of the water entering the bank drops below 39°C. The commutator (series CM-F, CMR-F) is pre- engineered for this function when the optional enabling thermostat is installed (TC-F). If a single-rank bank is mounted, the minimum temperature probe is positioned in the housing formed on it. If the three-way valve is installed (series VB1-F, VB3F), the minimum water temperature probe must be positioned on the pipe prior to valve VB1-F (if installed) or on valve VB3-F, regardless of whether the single-rank bank is fitted. In ducted versions with a multi-speed motor, three speeds of the six available can be enabled by selecting the relative connections in the terminal board installed on the motor. Proceed in the following way to make the electrical connections:

1. Disconnect the electricity main and make sure that no one can connect it again while the operations are being carried out

2. Remove the intake filter as illustrated in fig.9 (model VM-B only)

3. Remove the four screws (1-Fig.9) that fix the casing to the frame and take out the casing (version VM-B VM-F only).

4. Install the terminal board that connects the ventilating unit.

5. Connect the protection wire coming from the supply line directly to the earth screw, suitable for guaranteeing the

equipotential connections of all the metal earths and structural parts of the machine (Fig. 3-A).

6. Loosen the screws of the electric power source connections.

7. Loosen the wire clamp, insert the power cable and then lock it in place.

8. Electrically connect the control panel (if applicable) to the terminal board.

9. Make sure the cables are correctly inserted and fixed in the seats, positioning them as described in fig. 3-B.

10. Fit the casing back on (version VM-B VM-F only)

11. Fit the intake filter back in place (VM-B only)

12. Hook up the electricity main again.

HOW TO TURN THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS (only for 3row version)

OPERATION

HOW TO OPERATE THE CONVECTOR FAN

The convector fan is operated by means of a control panel (available in three versions) which can be fixed to the wall or machine. On this, it is hidden under one of the two side covers (the control panel will be installed on either the left or right side, depending on the position of the bank).

1: How to turn the appliance on/off:

• Open the cover if the panel is mounted on the machine (version VM-B/VM-F only).

• Switch the position of the top selector. A led will come on to indica-

te that the convector fan is operating (with the exception of versions

CMR-F and CM-F).

• Close the cover again (version VM-B/VM-F).

2: Temperature control:

• Open the cover if the panel is mounted on the machine (version VM-B/VM-F only)

• Use the knob to select the required temperature (with the exception

of versions CMR-F and CM-F). The temperature corresponding to the central position of the knob (pos.0) is:

- Winter rate: 20°C

- Summer rate: 25°C

• Close the cover again (version VM-B/VM-F only)

3: Ventilation control:

• Open the cover if the panel is mounted on the machine (version VM-B/VM-F only)

• Turn the selector to one of the three available speed in order to

obtain the desired performance.

• Close the cover again (version VM-B/VM-F only)

4: Seasonal mode:

• Open the cover if the panel is mounted on the machine (version VM-B/VM-F only)

• Turn the selector as illustrated below:

- : To operate in heating mode

- : To operate in cooling mode.

- AUTO: in this mode, the convector fan is able to “understand” the

operating mode required (with the exception of versions CMR-F and CM-F).

• Close the cover again (version VM-B/VM-F only)

5: Economy key (versions TER-F and TE-F only)

This function allows the winter and summer set-points to be changed.

• Open the cover if the panel is mounted on the machine (version VM-B/VM-F only)

• Press the economy button. A led will indicate that the function has

been activated, thus:

• The fan will operate at minimum speed.

• The temperature corresponding to the central position of the knob (pos.0) is:

- Winter rate: 17°C

- Summer rate: 28°C

• Close the cover again (version VM-B/VM-F only)

HOW TO CLEAN THE AIR FILTER

Proceed in the following way to clean the filter:

1:Remove the filter. Use a flat screwdriver to do this. See fig.1

2:Clean the filter with a vacuum cleaner or wash it with water. After washing,

allow the filter to completely dry away from heat sources.

3:Fit the filter back in position and make sure that it has correctly fitted into its

housing.

NOTE: It is advisable to replace the filter before the winter season.

HOW TO DRAIN OUT THE CONDENSATION

Proceed in the following way:

- During the summer season, make sure that the condensation drain pipe is free from dust or other forewign bodies that could clog it and cause condensation to spill out.

- The condensation drain pipe is accessible in versions with cabinets by removing the metal.

- Make sure that the pipe slopes sufficiently to allow the water to flow out.
