IMPORTANT:- ONLY CONNECT TOGETHER PRODUCTS FROM THE LO-CARBON SOLO PLUS SELV RANGE
SINCE THE FANS ARE SPECIALLY DESIGNED TO WORK ON 12V DC AND ARE NOT COMPATIBLE WITH
OTHER VENT-AXIA CONTROLLERS. DO NOT CONNECT MORE THAN ONE FAN TO THE CONTROLLER.
DESCRIPTION
As standard, the Lo-carbon SOLO Plus SELV is suitable for panel/wall installations, flush or surface mounting, either
in a horizontal or vertical plane. 100mm ducting (flexible or straight) can be attached using the supplied adjustable
spigot, providing rear or side exit options. Adaptors for System 25 and System 50 ducting can be used in conjunction
with the adjustable spigot. For wall installations a Wall Kit (25 41 02 White / 25 41 00 Brown) can be used. An
optional filter is also available (449265). Please see our catalogue or web site (www.vent-axia.com) for more
information on System 25/50 and for alternative ducting and termination options.
SITING THE CONTROLLER
1.
The controller must not be installed in a shower cubicle or enclosure. It must be sited away from direct
sources of water spray and out of reach (1.5m) of a person using a fixed bath or shower.
2.
Site away from direct sources of heat. Ambient temperature range 0 to 40ºC. Do not site in an area
containing excessive levels of grease.
3.
Decide where to site the controller and fan (see section siting the fan), and work out the required cable runs.
SITING THE FAN
1.
The electrical supply to this fan is 12V DC SELV from the mains controller. This means that the fan may be
installed within reach of a person using a fixed bath or shower, i.e. in a nearby wall. However, the fan must
not be placed where it could be submerged in water or regularly exposed to direct water spray, e.g. from a
shower head whether permanently fixed or movable.
A. INSTALLATION
PANEL MOUNTING (Surface)
1. Cut a 105mm∅ hole through the panel, ensuring that there is sufficient space for the product to be installed and
that the filter (If fitted) can be removed for maintenance.
2. Removing the grille. Firstly remove the front cover by carefully pulling each corner of the front panel until it is
free to be removed from the inner grille (Fig 1). Unscrew the two screws at the bottom of the inner grille. The
screws will remain in the inner grille but will be loose when the grille is ready to be removed (Fig 1). Lift the inner
grille from the bottom edge ensuring not to damage the sensor cable (TM model only) attached to the front
assembly and Base Housing (Fig 6).
3. Remove the Spigot Ring from inside the carton and clip over the Spigot Adaptor making sure the lip on the
Spigot Ring locates firmly inside the groove on the Spigot Adaptor (Fig 2). Ensure that the Spigot Adaptor is
firmly located onto the Base Housing and the shutter is still securely fastened and fully functional.
4. Set-up the appropriate speed selection and other features as outlined in Section B SETUP.
5. Attach the ducting to the Spigot and locate into the hole in the panel ensuring the Skirt is located correctly into
the Base Housing. Secure into position using appropriate fixtures (Fig 3)
6. Ensure the Impeller rotates freely.
7. Select and follow the appropriate wiring diagram in Section C WIRING.
8. Replace the inner grille ensuring that the PIR sensor cable (TM model only) is reconnected to the PIR sensor
PCB (Fig 6) Replace the front panel.
9. Switch the mains power supply on and check the fan is operating correctly.

PANEL MOUNTING (Flush)

1. Mark and cut a rectangular hole (190mm x 240mm) through the panel, ensuring that there is sufficient space for
the product to be installed and that the filter (If fitted) can be removed for maintenance. IMPORTANT: Be careful
to avoid joists and hidden cables.
