Caution For Installation
1. The dealership from which you purchased the product is an expert on custom installation proce­dures and can provide invaluable advice to help you make an aesthetically pleasing and trouble free installation.
Caution For Connections
1. Connect this equipment only to the type of AC power source as marked on the unit. Always route AC power cords so they are not likely to be walked on, or tripped over, or where they may be pinched by items placed on or against them. Always pay particular attention to cords at plugs and/or conve­nience receptacles, and at the point where they exit from the product.
2. Do not defeat the inherent design features of the polarized plug. Non-polarized line cord adapters will defeat the safety provided by the polarized AC plug. If the plug should fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug. If you use this product in a country which only has two slotted receptacles in the house, you must use a three-pin adapter plug to earth ground which is the “E” (earth pin) of the power cord con-

nected to this product.
3. Do not overload wall outlets, extension or inte­gral convenience receptacles, as this could result in a risk of fire or shock.
Operating Voltage
The C12 Fan System is factory-set for 110V, 120V or 230V AC operation at either 50 or 60 Hz, ac­cording to the country for which the unit was manu­factured (230V in European Union countries, in compliance with CE regulations). The operating voltage cannot be changed by the user and any at­tempt to do so will void the warranty.
Care of the Product
Clean the product by dusting with a dry cloth. Do not permit objects of any kind to be pushed and/or fall into the product through the enclosure open­ings.
General Description
The CR12 is a multi-directional fan system that uses three 4.75-inch (120 mm) whisper quiet fans, the speeds of which are governed by thermal sens­ing circuitry. The C12 is designed to be used in three different formats -intake/blow/exhaust air. The required mode can be configured locally ac­cording to the cooling requirements of your sys­tem. The C12 has many other features and functions that are all described in the following pages.
Front Panel Description
The (removable) rack mountable front panel houses a switch for controlling the on/off and auto func­tions. A blue LED indicates when the unit’s fans are actually working.
Behind the grille front is a removable air-filter pad.
It is important to note that the only time the switch needs to be in the ‘on’ position is during an ini­tial test when the fans will be operating at their maximum speed. Once the C12 has completed its test, it is recommended that the switch be placed in its ‘auto’ position. In this mode neither the fans nor the LED will operate until the selected ambient temperature is reached.
Rear Panel Description
The following description identifies each of the main controls/connections and follows the rear panel from left to right.
Temperature Sensor
This input enables you to connect the (supplied) pigtail sensing cord. The magnetized ‘head’ should be placed on the ‘hot spot’ of your installation whereupon it will measure the ambient tempera­ture, which in turn will govern the speed of the three fans. Please note that there is also an in-built sensing device located on the underside of the chassis that is by-passed if the pigtail sensor is used. If the pig­tail sensor is not used, then the in-built sensor will automatically activate once the selected minimum temperature has been reached.
Trigger In/Out 12VDC Mode
With the mode switch in the 12V position, and the ‘in’ input being used, the C12 will move into its ‘auto’ mode whenever a 6V to 15V input signal is supplied been reached. Should you want to use one or more C12’s within the same location you can synchronize the units by using the ‘sync’ switch. For this situation you should use the ‘out’ jack from one unit (which then becomes the ‘master’) and go into the ‘in’ jack for the second unit (which then becomes the ‘slave’). The two units will now be ‘in sync’ and will start to work in unison once the prescribed initial tem­perature of the ‘master’ unit has been reached. Note that in this type of multi-unit installation all of the internal temperature sensors of the ‘slave’ units are defeated.
and the prescribed initial temperature has
Fan Auto-On Temperature
This switch enables you to pre-select one of two temperature settings for activating the C12. The low setting is 95 degrees Fahrenheit (35 degree Cel­sius) and the high setting is 104 degrees Fahren­heit (40 degrees Celsius). This important feature ensures that the fans only work above the selected ambient temperature.
If you want to want to exhaust the hot air to the outside you will need to remove the two ‘plugs’ and attach flexible tubing (supplied by Sherbourn as Model H 12). Please see page 3 for a fuller de­scription of this feature.
How To Configure The C12 For Different ‘Air-Direction’ Flow
The C12 is a versatile system that enables you to configure the direction of the airflow in many dif­ferent ways according to the specific needs of your installation. Be sure to disconnect the power sup-
ply before removing the top cover.
