1.2
Safety instructions
The installation instructions are part of your iV-Compact ventilation device and must be available
at all times (see www.inventer.de/downloads). When handing the system to a third party, the infor-
mation regarding access to the installation instructions must be handed over also.
Before performing any work on the unit/system, read the installation instructions carefully and
observe all notices that refer to the installation process in this section.
Also note the safety instructions that precede the described handling instructions. Non-obser-
vance of safety instructions could result in injury and/or property damage.
Intended use
The ventilation device is used to ventilate living rooms, rooms similar to living rooms and other
areas where people spend time, e.g. living rooms and bedrooms, offices, basements and attics. It
is controlled via an inVENTer system control unit (hereinafter also referred to as the "controller").
General information
• Always observe the relevant standards, regulations and guidelines when installing the equip-
ment / system. In particular also applicable building regulations, fire safety regulations and
accident prevention regulations of the employers' liability insurance association.
• Use the equipment/system exclusively for the applications that are described in this documenta-
tion and only in conjunction with components that are recommended, authorised and described
by inVENTer GmbH in this documentation.
Changes or modifications to the equipment/system are not permitted.
• Your ventilation system is exclusively designed for use in ambient temperatures between -20
and 50°C.
• Trouble-free and safe operation of the equipment/system depends upon proper transportation,
proper storage and installation as well as careful operation and maintenance.
• The ventilation device works according to the principle of cross-ventilation. Interior doors must
not be sealed airtight. Provide suitable air transfer measures to create a room network.
Installation and assembly
• CAUTION: The system may only be installed by qualified personnel.
Before starting work, you should have a project plan showing the number of ventilation devices,
the location of the ventilation devices, the ventilation principle (cross ventilation, single room
ventilation, extract ventilation) and the associated controllers. The exact positioning of the indi-
vidual units and control units must be checked at the installation site and, if necessary, adapted
to the local conditions with the involvement of the responsible planner or user.
The ventilation device is installed in an appropriate place in the upper wall area.
• WARNING: For joint operation with fireplaces, safety measures must be taken to prevent a
negative pressure from developing in the building.
The responsible chimney sweep and/or building planner decides which measures need to be
carried out.
