0. Preface to operating instructions The present operating instructions are destined to make the users of fans of series VRE familiar with these devices so that they will be able to apply them as prescribed. The instructions contain important information for the reliable, appropriate, and economical use of these fans. Observation of such instructions helps to avoid danger and to reduce repair cost and downtimes.

Operation with electrical units (motors, control and regulating devices) must not be carried through but by qualified persons (see also DIN VDE 0105 or IEC 364). Repairs of explosion-proof fans must not be carried through but by the manufacturers or after consultation with them.
