The fan casing is made of galvanized steel. The fan casing includes an exhaust spigot with a back draft damper to prevent back air flow.
The terminal box comprises the terminals for wiring of the fan and is attached to the fan casing. The decorative grille is fixed to the casing via
the springs inserted to the holders. The front panel is fixed via the grille slots. A single-phase electric motor with a centrifugal impeller with
forward curved blades is fastened inside of the casing. Depending on the fan model the fan may be equipped with a LED lamp, a timer, a
humidity or motion sensor.

Timer (t)

After an external switch, e.g. a light switch is turned off, the fan is turned on or goes to high speed after countdown of a set turn-on delay
time, adjustable from 0 to 3 minutes.
After the fan is turned off it keeps running for a set turn-off delay time, adjustable from 1 to 90 minutes and the reverts to the initial operation
status.

Motion sensor (tp)

In case of activation of the motion sensor the fan turns on or switches to the higher speed.
After no motion is detected more the fan keeps running for a set turn-off delay time, adjustable from 1 to 90 minutes, and the reverts to the
initial operation status.

Humidity sensor (th)

If the indoor humidity exceeds the set humidity point adjustable from 50 % up to 90 %, the fan either turns on or goes to the higher speed.
After indoor humidity drops down the fan keeps running for a set turn-off delay time, adjustable from 1 to 90 minutes and the reverts to the
initial operation status.

circuit

The fan is a component part and is not designed for stand-alone operation.
The fan is constructed for ceiling installation in the floor slab and fixation to the inter joist with the distance between the ceiling joists from
270 mm (10 5/8”) up to 680 mm (20 3/4”) using the removable fixing brackets or the fastening holes in the fan casing.
The installation place must be in compliance with local construction norms for units of this type.
Check the fan for mechanical damages prior to mounting .
Make sure that the casing comprises no foreign objects, such as paper or foil.
While mounting the fan sufficient service access for maintenance or repair operations must be provided.
The minimum gap between the fan and the ceiling is 5 mm (3/16”).

L = min 5 mm L = min 5 mm(3/16") (3/16")

CONTROL UNIT WITH A SPEED SWITCH

OFFHIGH LOW

Three-position switch

The fan with AC motor is controlled by a three-position switch. The switch has three positions:

OFF — the fan is turned off.
LOW — the fan operates at reduced performance (speed 1).
HIGH — the fan operates at maximum performance (speed 2).

When the power is turned on (~ 230 V), the fan will operate in one of the above modes.

MICROPROCESSOR CONTROL UNIT WITH INDICATION

The AC fan motor is operated by a microprocessor control unit. The front panel of the control unit comprises a light indicator, control buttons
and two connectors for connection of the humidity and motion sensors.
