Installation

Before Installation

• For best results this fan should be fitted as high on the wall as possible, or on the ceiling.
• DO NOT install the fan within a shower cubicle.
• This fan is double insulated and does not require an earth.
• When installing fan through an external wall, an external wall grille must be fitted.

Installation

• Cut a suitable diameter hole. Recommended sizes for plaster board fixing with fixing clips are: 100 = Ø115mm and 150 = Ø173 mm; for all other surfaces 100 = Ø110mm and 150 = Ø155mm. lf the fan is to be fixed in the ceiling ensure that the hole is between the joists.
• Remove the cover from the fan by twisting the front cover anti-clockwise.
• Hold the body of the fan against the wall or ceiling and mark the four screw holes and the cable entry on the side. Use the fixing clips to secure the fan in panel walls and ceilings – see figure 1a.
  
  
  Ensure that the fan is square on wall or ceiling.
• Bring the power cable into position, as marked. Allow an extra 230mm (9") protruding to facilitate connection.

Wiring

NOTE: All wiring must be fixed securely and the cable to the fan should be a minimum of 1mm² in section. All wiring must comply with current lEE Regulations. lf in any doubt contact a qualified electrician.

Electrical Connection: Standard Model

see Figure 1.

Remove the internal cover by removing the 2 small caps and retaining crosshead screws to access the terminal connections.
The fan can either be operated from a separate pullcord switch fitted to the ceiling of the room or can be connected to the light switch so that the fan will start when the light is switched on. A double pole fused spur having a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles must be used and fitted with a 3 amp fuse, and should be sited outside any room containing a shower or fixed bath. The fan should not be accessible to a person using either the shower or the bath.

Electrical Connections: Timer Model

see Figure 2.

The fan can either be operated from a separate pullcord switch fitted to the ceiling of the room or can be connected to the light switch so that the fan will start when the light is switched on. A double pole fused spur having a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles must be used and fitted with a 3 Amp fuse, and should be sited outside any room containing a shower or fixed bath. The fan should not be accessible to a person using either the shower or the bath. See overleaf for timer adjustment instructions.

Electrical Connections: Electronic Humidity Model

see Figure 3 below.
Connect to electrical supply as shown in figure 3.

Electrical connection: Humidity model with Timer

Time delay and override operation
Terminal 1 = Neutral supply
Terminal 2 = switch LIVE supply
Terminal 3 = spare
Terminal 4 = permanent supply

For the fan to operate as a normal time delay unit with humidity over-ride, ie, when connected with a switched live coming from the light switch into the fan, the fan will operate when the light is switched on, and switch off after about 20 seconds to 20 minutes (timer is pre-set for the minimum). However should the humidity in the room reach about 75% – which will happen if the shower is run or the bath filled with hot water – the fan will switch on and keep running until the humidity has been reduced to a normal level, about 65%.

Adjustments

Timer and humidity adjustment.
For the Timer model please see figure 4 below. For the Humidity model please see figure 5 below. Minimum and maximum values are shown on the diagrams.


Only adjust with power switched off.
