CHAPTER 2 INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING 2.1 General installation instructions 2.1.1 Receipt The delivery contains one of the following unit types: Unit AZURE 500 AZURE 700 AZURE 1000 AZURE 1400 AZURE 2200 AZURE 3200 The scope of delivery also includes: - 4 or 6 x Vibration pads - 2 x Door keys - 8 x fixing clamp (AZURE 3200) Vibration pads and door handles are placed supply fan side.
- Make sure that equipment is firmly seated before lifting it. Risk of personal injury and equipment damage! Due to a high center of gravity, some equipment can tend to tip over and cause damage to persons and property. - When transporting the unit, carefully observe its behavior and do not get near any possible hazardous areas. Delivery dimensions and weights The dimension and weight of each package can be seen below.
2.1.5 Disassembly and re-assembly Before starting any disassembly or re-assembly operation, please ensure that the product is isolated from its mains electrical supply, in order to ensure that fans cannot be run. As disassembly and re-assembly are not part of routine maintenance, these should be carried out by qualified personnel. Ensure that the hydraulic circuit is switched off.

CHAPTER 3 TECHNICAL DATA 3.1 Performance Data and Technical Data Mechanical connections must be made correctly in order to obtain maximum efficiency from the device. The device's thermal efficiency, sound level and electrical performance may vary depending on the ambient and operating conditions. These conditions may affect the measurement result on site and vary from the catalogue data.
CHAPTER 4 FUNCTIONS AND SETTINGS 4.1 Operating modes The following operating modes are available: • Manual operation • Timer (incl. optional sensor operated operation) • Sensor-controlled operation (via timer) • Recirculating air (via temperature and timer) • Bypass (via commissioning assistant and timer) In addition, manual operation via switching contacts is possible.
4.1.2 Timers The device runs only after the set time intervals of the Timers. For the use of the Timers must be in the menu mode Timers be set. If Timers is selected and no switching contacts are active, the device runs only according to the Timer settings. If there are several timers active at the same time, the function with the highest priority is active.

CHAPTER 5 SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE 5.1 Service and maintenance The filter change is usually carried out by the operator. Additional cleaning and maintenance work must only be carried out by qualified personnel. The AZURE unit must be fully isolated from the power supply and secured against reactivation with the main isolator switch located on the controller box of the unit before any cleaning and maintenance work.
5.3 Service and maintenance of cross counter flow heat exchanger Make sure that the power connection is disconnected before doing any work on the device. Danger of electric shock; moving parts (fan) and hot surfaces. DANGER OF INJURY! From falling or down-folding covers/inspection openings! Heat exchanger is very heavy and can contain condensation water! High weight! Two people are required for dismantling the heat exchanger.
