Do not attempt to install the product, connect it to the mains, or perform maintenance yourself. This is unsafe and impossible without special knowledge.
volute-s www.blaubergventilatoren.de PURPOSE The dual-purpose centrifugal fan for smoke extraction with direct drive is used in emergency exhaust ventilation systems for the forced removal of smoke, heated gases and combustion products, as well as in general exhaust ventilation systems in shopping centres, garages, warehouses, as well as in kitchens where the use of grease filters is mandatory.
volute-s www.blaubergventilatoren.de TECHNICAL DATA The unit is designed for application with the ambient temperature ranging from -20 °C up to +40 °C and relative humidity up to 80 %. The fan is designed to remove smoke and air mixtures up to +400 °C for 120 minutes and to operate continuously with the temperature of the transported medium up to +120 °C.

volute-s www.blaubergventilatoren.de ASYNCHRONOUS ELECTRIC MOTOR STARTING METHODS There are several methods for starting asynchronous squirrel-cage electric motors. The most common methods are: direct-on-line (DOL), with a soft starter (SS) or with a frequency converter (FC). Direct-on-line starting In case of direct-on-line starting (i.e. by connecting the motor to the electric mains with a simple line contactor), the motor starting time significantly increases due to high inertia of the impeller, which, in turn, results in high in-rush starting currents in the circuit.
volute-s www.blaubergventilatoren.de Let us review three variations of a heavy start: 1. The feed line performance is barely sufficient or insufficient to maintain the induced current. Typical symptoms: Upon starting the circuit breakers at the system input are tripped; the lights, certain relays and contactors go off, and the supply generator shuts down.
volute-s www.blaubergventilatoren.de TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE Prior to performing any technical maintenance and repair disconnect the fan from the electric mains and wait until its rotating parts come to a complete stop. The technical maintenance includes periodic cleaning of the surfaces from accumulated dust and dirt. The impeller blades require thorough cleaning once in 6 months.

volute-s www.blaubergventilatoren.de Technical maintenance guidelines Perform regular maintenance of the fan to ensure reliable, safe and efficient operation. General technical maintenance includes: • Daily maintenance; • Technical maintenance (TM-1) after 1,000 hours; • Current repairs after 10,000 hours; • Major repairs after 20,000 hours. All types of work must be performed according to the schedule regardless of the technical condition of the fan.
