Definition The term "COLASIT fan" stands for a Swiss high-quality product and contains all the components and individual parts as specified in the purchase order or in the material parts list, which, when assembled, form a functional unit.
COLASIT only guarantees the durability of materials on condition that technological data was available before production. Any change in the conditions of use is only permissible after approval by COLASIT; otherwise this will entail loss of warranty. Any changes or repair work during the warranty period may only be made by our fitters or with our written consent.
Explosion protection COLASIT plastic fans are suitable for the conveyance of gases in Zone 1 or 2 (Equipment Category 2 or 3) depending on the model. COLASIT plastic fans are not suitable for the conveyance of gases in Zone 0 (Equipment Category 1).
The fitter must confirm the proper installation item for item on this form. The signed form must be kept by the safety officer or operating company. COLASIT also offers a comprehensive installation service for fans. Page 8 COLASIT AG...
Connection ducting on the pressure side must be routed to prevent the backflow of foreign bodies, rainwater or condensate into the fan. To ensure this, please use the COLASIT condensate drain nozzles. Due to the possibility of noise nuisance, we recommend that the fan should not be installed in the immediate vicinity of workplaces.
The motor electrical specifications are indicated on the motor’s rating plate or in the motor manufacturer’s data sheet. When speed is controlled by means of a frequency converter, the maximum speed is limited by COLASIT to the value indicated on the manufacturer’s rating plate.
If the intake and delivery ducts of the fan are dismounted for a longer period of time, the openings must be closed off.
