CONNECTION AND START-UP

4.1 Mechanical connection

CAUTION
Cutting and crushing hazard when removing the
fan from the packaging.
 Carefully remove the device from its packaging only
touching the guard grille. Make sure to avoid any
shock.
 Wear safety shoes and cut-resistant safety gloves.
NOTE
Damage to the device from vibration
Bearing damage, shorter service life
 The device must not be subjected to force or
excessive vibration from sections of the
installation. i.e. If the fan is connected to air
ducts, the connection should be isolated from
vibration to ensure stress-free attachment of the
fan to the substructure.
 Severe vibration can arise for instance from poor
handling, transportation damage and the
resultant imbalance.
 Check the device for transport damage. Damaged devices
are not to be installed.
 Install the undamaged device according to your application.

4.2 Electrical connection

The connection of the electrical system is made after the
connection to the mechanical system.
DANGER
Incorrect insulation
Risk of fatal injury from electric shock
→ Use only cables that meet the specified installation
requirements for voltage, current, insulation material,
load etc.
→ Route cables such that they cannot be touched by
any rotating parts.
CAUTION
Electrical voltage
The fan is a built-in component and features no
electrically isolating switch.
→ Only connect the fan to circuits that can be switched
off with an all-pole separating switch.
→ When working on the fan, you must switch off the
installation/machine in which the fan is installed and
secure it from being switched on again.
NOTE
Water ingress into leads or wires
Water enters at the cable end on the customers' side
and can damage the device.
→ Make sure that the cable end is connected in a
dry environment.
→ The IP protection is guaranteed only if the
provided cable gland and terminal box are
installed.
Connect the device only to circuits that can be
switched off using an all-pole disconnecting switch.
Item no. LS-188.

4.2.1 Requirements

 Check whether the data on the type plate agree with the
connection data and the data of the operating capacitor.
 Before connecting the device, ensure that the supply
voltage matches the operating voltage of the device.
 Only use cables designed for current according to the type
plate. For determining the cross-section, follow the basic
principles in accordance with EN 61800-5-1. The protective
earth must have a cross-section equal to or greater than the
outer conductor cross- section.
We recommend the use of 105°C cables. Ensure that the
minimum cable cross-section is at least AWG26/0.13 mm².

4.2.2 Reactive currents

4.2.3 Locked rotor protection

4.3 Connection in terminal box

4.3.1 Cable routing

No water may penetrate along the cable in the direction of the
cable gland.
Fans installed lying flat
Make sure that the cable is routed in the form of a loop (water
trap).

Revision 001 Release 24/09/2018
Because of the EMC filter integrated for compliance
with EMC limits (interference emission and
interference immunity), reactive currents can be
measured in the supply line even when the motor is
at a standstill and the mains voltage is switched on.
The values are typically < 250 mA.
At the same time, the effective power in this
operating state (operational readiness) is typically < 5
W.
Due to the locked-rotor protection, the starting current
(LRA) is equal to or less than the nominal current
(FLA)..
