Caution & Safety Key Safety System Components EnergyLogic fans are engineered with key safety features to prevent pieces of the fan from falling in the unlikely event of a catastrophic failure. Used together, these features provide comprehensive protection of people, equipment and property. Follow the detailed instructions precisely when installing fans, including the following: •...
Fusing Chart BRANCH CIRCUIT PROTECTION IS REQUIRED TO PROTECT THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS AND COMPLY WITH UL 507. Use the table below to select the correct fast acting fuse size for your application. The optional fuse disconnect switch provided by EnergyLogic uses class gG fast acting fuses. Fuses must be purchased separately.
Fan Placement & Clearance Sprinkler Systems and Fan Placement In any installation where fire sprinklers are in place, fans should not interfere with their correct operation. Fans should be located no less than 3 feet below a sprinkler, and placed centrally to each sprinkler quadrant.

Maintenance Information Guy Wire Check (if applicable): Checking a EnergyLogic fan’s guy wires for tension and inspecting for frayed sections could mitigate a problem before it occurs. The guy wires should be under enough tension to prevent any movement in the motor unit or the extension tube. If the motor can be moved by pushing on it, the guy wires need to be tightened.
Troubleshooting It is recommended to wire the fan and the touchpad remote prior to turning on the power to the fan. If the fan is not operable, but the touchpad remote is lighting up, cycle power to the fan. If cycling the power did not resolve this issue, go to the fault code screen (reference page 64) and check to see if there is a code present.
