S&P VENT ECOWATT Manuel D'instructions page 6

• Check earth connections, electrical terminations and terminal box
lid, with any seals, if fi tted, are correct.
• In compliance with Machine Directive 89/392/EU, if the fan is ac-
cessible to operators and is a health and safety risk, adequate pro-
tection must be fi tted, information for safety equipment, including
guards, can be found in S&P accessories catalogue.
• Check all rotating parts have free, unobstructed movement.
• Check there are no foreign bodies inside the fan or that can be
drawn into, or fall into fan.
• Check the structure is complete and has no damage.
• Check installation and area is safe and energise fan and start motor.
Check that the impeller and airfl ow direction is correct, check cur-
rent does not exceed fan equipment nameplate data.
• After two hours of operation, check that all fi xings are tight and ad-
just if necessary.
ELECTRIC MOTORS
Electrical connections are made in accordance with connection dia-
gram in the motor instructions and/or inside motor terminal box.
Many S&P fans are supplied with a cable gland for typical electrical
power cable connection, to assist installation. However, if Installer
uses a cable requiring a differing cable gland, this is to be supplied by
the Installer, no alternative is offered by S&P. The Installer is respon-
sible to ensure that cable, and cable gland, are suitable and safe for
application according to country regulations.
Ensure system operation is safe in event of power cut/power outage/
disruption to power supply. If ventilation is stopped due to disruption
to power supply, ensure no risk due to excessive temperature (electri-
cal heater). Care may be needed when restarting fan after disruption
to power supply.
Most motors are supplied with permanently greased or sealed for life
bearings and do not require re-lubrication. However, if motors with
re-greasing facility are supplied, then follow the instructions in the
specifi c motor Instruction manual and nameplate supplied.
Warning: Do not mix different types of grease.
MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS
Maintenance/repairs must be carried out by competent personnel
and in accordance with applicable International, National and Lo-
cal regulations. Fan equipment should be electrically isolated and
locked out before any work started.
Fan equipment should be regularly cleaned, frequency depending
upon service load and application, but no less than every 6 months.
Fan equipment for dust applications may require more frequent
cleaning to ensure safe operation. Cleaning should include all areas
where dust can accumulate in the fan equipment.
Special attention should be made to any unusual sounds, vibration or
temperature. If any problems are detected the fan equipment should
be stopped immediately and cause inspected. The impeller and blades
should be regularly checked for damage that could cause imbalance
in the moving parts.
REPLACEMENT PARTS
Do not start working until all relevant safety procedures have been
read, understood and actioned correctly.
Ensure that personnel are competent for work required, spare parts
are correct for application, tools and materials to be used are availa-
ble and safe for environment.
Identify components, bolts, fi xings to be removed, and identify loca-
tion to ensure replaced in same location, this can be done by marking
with number/letter/colour to bolt fi xing and any associated spacing
material to identify location. This is especially important for motor
fi xings to supports, and impeller shaft fi xings to supports, where
packing/spacing/shim material is used to adjust motor/impeller shaft
center line, and hence fi nal impeller position.
GOOD PRACTICE, GOOD/BAD INSTALLATION ARRANGEMENT
Fans should be installed correctly without any adverse installation
effect. Typically fans should be installed so that air entry is clear,
unobstructed, non-turbulent and discharge does not hinder airfl ow,
since air turbulence adversely affects impeller performance.
PUTTING OUT OF SERVICE AND RECYCLING
Disposal must be carried out by competent personnel and in accord-
ance with applicable International, National and Local regulations.
Isolate fan equipment and any associated electrical equipment and
lock off. Remove electrical connections.
Disconnect fan equipment from duct connections and cover connec-
tions with plastic sheet to prevent exposure to any residue material in
fan equipment, and any contamination of ducts.
Dismantle and dispose in accordance with applicable National and In-
ternational laws and regulations, those parts whose service life has
expired.
EEC legislation and our consideration of future generations
mean that we should always recycle materials where pos-
sible; please do not forget to deposit all packaging in the
appropriate recycling bins. If your device is also labeled with
this symbol, please take it to the nearest Waste Manage-
ment Plant at the end of its servicable life.
The fan unit is mainly made of steel, copper, ferrite, aluminium and
plastic. These components should be recycling in the following cate-
gories:
• Steel and iron
• Aluminium
• Non-ferrous metals
• Plastics
• Insulating materials
• Cables
• Electronic scrap
