BF 50 Recirculation 3.2 Removal of transport bracket On the recirculation fan the red transport bracket is placed between the impeller and the center pillar. Twist the transport bracket out from the center pillar. Remove transport brackets from the fan.
BF 50 Recirculation 3.3 Mounting of accessories 3.3.1 Mounting of bracket for recirculation Place the 4 brackets as shown. The two brackets that are similar must be placed diagonally. Mark 6 holes for each of the 4 brackets. Pre-drill the 6 holes with a Ø4.8 mm drill.
BF 50 Recirculation 3.3.2 Mounting of inside safety net If a safety net has not been selected, a safety guard must be established. The requirements of the International Standard for Safety of machinery ISO 13857 shall be complied with. Make sure that the net is turned as shown in the draw- ing.
BF 50 Recirculation 3.3.3 Mounting of outside safety net If a safety net has not been selected, a safety guard must be established. The requirements of the International Standard for Safety of machinery ISO 13857 shall be complied with. Assemble the safety net outside with the included strips.
In the case of retrofitting fans in an existing house, regardless of ON/OFF fans, LPC fans or frequency convert- ers SKOV recommends that a local expert is involved in checking the electrical installations. The focus should be on cable dimensions, overload protections, local transformers, etc. It is of outmost importance to take the fan specifications into account and, at the same time, ensure that local requirements are fulfilled.
