Mounting - Vents Solid User Manual

MOUNTING

The fan is designed for wall (with the motors on ball and slide bearings) or ceiling (with the motors on ball bearings only, L
option) mounting and can be used for direct outdoor air exhaust through a round duct or a duct system.
In case of installation through a duct system, select the duct cross section in accordance with the fan size (Fig. 1).
1. When installing the fan with direct air discharge outside through the wall, be sure to install a ventilation grille with louvre
shutters or a ventilation hood on the outside to prevent rainfall, snow, leaves, branches, etc. from entering the duct.
To reduce the risk of condensate forming in the duct, the space between the hole in the wall and the duct must be
insulated.
Install the air duct with the minimum slope of 1...2° downwards to the outer wall side for condensate removal (Fig 2).
2. The duct system should not exceed 5 meters and have more than two bends.
3. During ceiling installation, vertical air discharge upwards is not allowed even if there is a protective outer hood on the
roof.
For ceiling mounting and air discharge to the roof, the duct system must include a condensate drain (Fig. 3).
A condensate drain is not included in the delivery set of the fan and can be ordered separately.
Check the fan for any visible damages of the impeller, the casing and the grille before starting installation. The casing
internals must be free of any foreign objects which can damage the impeller blades.
While mounting the unit, avoid compression of the casing!
Deformation of the casing may result in the motor jam and excessive noise.
Mark and drill the fan mounting holes, attach the insulation gasket, and install the fan.
Dowels and screws are designed for concrete and brick walls.
If the walls are made of the other material (drywall, wood,etc.), use the fasteners appropriate for these materials to fasten
the fan (not supplied with the fan and must be purchased separately).
WARNING!
When the fan is equipped with a non-return valve, operation of the fan without the valve is prohibited.
