Holding clip (5) Notch (1) Lustre terminal (4) Terminal (2) Connector pins (3) Lift the lustre terminal (4) out of the fan casing and press the two connector pins (3) at one end of the module into the lustre terminal (4). Tighten with a suitable screwdriver. Make sure that the connector wires are underneath the holding clip (5).
Replace the front cover. As the SmartFan X is a double-insulated electrical appliance (Protection Class II), the earth conductor is not used. The T-connector may only be connected at the same voltage as the I-connector.
1 - 3° Inside When installing the SmartFan X in a wall, a hole has to be core-drilled for the mounting tube with an outward gradient of 1-3%, allowing any condensate to drain off. When installing the SmartFan X in a ceiling, a condensate trap must be used to prevent any condensate from flowing back.
When using a foam sealant, make sure that it is not so expandable that it deforms the mounting tube. Cabling Cable connection top left Inside Lay the power cable to the hole in the wall/ceiling for the mounting tube. To connect the cable without problems, it should be laid up to the top left (10 o‘clock position) side of the hole.
Installing the fan Cable connection in the casing Inside Align the fan so that it sits straight, with both screw-holes in a horizontal line. The fan can be fixed to the wall/ceiling using the supplied rawlplugs and screws. Carry out the cabling as described (see Electrical Installation).
Installing the outside grille Outside Install the outside grille on the outside wall, using the supplied rawlplugs and screws. Make sure that the grille sits straight and that the louvres are shut when the fan is not running.
Operating the system When the SmartFan X is switched on, it takes about 45 seconds before the iris diaphragm opens. When it is switched off, the motor stops and, about 25 seconds later, the iris diaphragm shuts. The reaction speed of the iris diaphragm is due to technical reasons and completely normal.
Troubleshooting Should the SmartFan X not work properly after taking the following measures, please contact the installer. Fault What is to be done The device is not functioning Check that the device has been properly wired. Also at all. check the fuse. Check that the module is functioning.
Maintenance Always disconnect the fan from the mains before removing the cover. To ensure the device‘s long-term functioning and to maintain the warranty, we recommend cleaning the fan once a year. Accumulations of dirt on the fan wheel and the inside of the fan will cause the motor to overheat.
