Accessories | • SPI-125 C Iris damper — 6751 Installation and connection • Follow instructions in the manual which is delivered with the accessory. Installation/Maintenance 8.5.1 Outdoor/Exhaust air dampers If manual fan stop is activated, the unit should be provided with dampers in exhaust and outdoor ducts to avoid cold draught and risk of condensation when the unit has been stopped.
SAVE /B series have a dedicated 5th duct for air extraction through a cooker hood. This duct bypasses the heat ex- changer and air from the kitchen gets removed directly to the outside. Recommended cooker hoods can be found at Systemair website in the product description of your ventilation unit.
Accessories | 8.5.3 Pressure Guard A differential pressure switch is used to detect air pressure difference in a duct. The contact in the switch changes (on/ off) when air pressure exceeds the setpoint value. One of the possibilities is to use this device with a cooker hood which has an internal fan. Turned on cooker hood causes air pressure to increase in the exhaust air duct.
| Accessories Note: • If the 24 V power supply on the connection board (CB) is used for other equipment, the number of control panels that can be powered from the unit will decrease. • A single active control panel draws 50 mA. The connection board supplies up to 250 mA. If no other accessories use 24 V power supply from the unit, up to 5 control panels can be connected without a need of external power supply.
Pressing a push button will activate your selected function. Filters The filters need to be replaced when polluted. New sets of filters, if possible, should be acquired directly from Systemair to meet filter quality standards. If that is not possible, please contact your installer or wholesaler.
