Safety instructions

Read the instructions through carefully and
completely before you install the fan or
commission it. Keep the instructions some-
where safe.
Installation should only be carried out by
specialists with knowledge of and experience in
ventilation technology.
Only qualified electricians are permitted to make
the electrical connections and/or repairs.
During assembly and electrical installation, please
take note of the valid regulations, in particular
DIN VDE 0100 and the pertinent sections.
The fan motor is thermally protected. It must
be connected to an external control unit with
automatic switch-off, such as the Maico
MVE 10 motor protection switch for example,
or to a self-latching contactor circuit. The
control unit should not be able to switch itself
back on after being triggered.
Before starting it up again, leave the fan switched
off long enough for the motor and temperature
limiter to cool down. Depending on the size and
the temperatures involved, the cool-down time
could be up to 30 minutes. Only then should you
switch it back on.
Before removing the safety devices, the fan must
be completely removed from the power supply.
If the fans are being used with air-ventilated
fireplaces, you must ensure that there is sufficient
supply air intake.
The fan is designed in accordance with VDE
safety requirements within the framework of the
equipment and product safety act as well as the
pertinent regulations laid down in the EC
directives.
