4 Assembly and connection
4.1 Choosing the installation site
When choosing the installation site for the
enclosure, please observe the following:
– The site for the enclosure, and hence
the arrangement of the fan-and-filter
unit, must be carefully selected so as to
ensure good ventilation.
– The site must be free from excessive dirt
and moisture.
– The ambient temperature must be lower
than the permissible enclosure interior
temperature.
– The mains connection data as stated
on the rating plate of the unit must be
guaranteed.
4.2 Assembly instructions
4.2.1 General
– Check that the packaging does not show
any signs of damage. Packaging damage may be the cause of a subsequent
functional failure.
– The fan-and-filter unit and outlet filter
must always be mounted on an enclosure in order to ensure air exchange.
– The enclosure must be sealed on all
sides (IP 54). If the enclosure has a leak,
unfiltered, contaminated air may enter
the enclosure, depending on the direction of airflow of the fan.
4.2.2 Layout of the components
in the enclosure
Exercise particular caution with the airflow
from the blowers of built-in components.
For installation, it is important to ensure
that the airflows of fans and built-in components do not have a negative influence
on one another (air short-circuit).
The corresponding minimum distances
between the fan and component must be
observed in order to ensure unhindered air
circulation.
4.3 Fitting the fan-and-filter unit
or outlet filter
The fan-and-filter unit or outlet filter is
mounted on a vertical panel of the enclosure:
• For this purpose, the appropriate door,
side or rear panel must be cut out using
the supplied drilling template.
The fan-and-filter unit is generally fitted in
the lower part of the enclosure, and the
outlet filter in the upper part.
4.3.1 Cutting out the enclosure
• Stick the supplied self-adhesive drilling
template to the envisaged position on
the door, side or rear panel of the enclo-
sure.
There are dimensioning lines on the drilling plate for the cut-out and for the holes
required for mounting and securing the
fan, depending on the metal thickness
(cf. also Fig. 8 and Fig. 9, page 16).
• Make the cut-outs including the line
width as per the drilling template.
Deburr the cut-outs.
4.3.2 Fitting the fan-and-filter unit
• The fan may be fitted without tools, by
simply snapping into the preconfigured
mounting cut-out.
• However, if the metal thickness is great-
er than 3 mm, the fan will need to be
screw-fastened. To this end, remove the
louvred grille in order to gain access to
the lower mounting holes.
Note:
The outlet filter should be
at least the same size as the
fan-and-filter unit.
Risk of injury!
Carefully deburr all cut-outs
to prevent injuries caused by
sharp edges.
