Installation example: Suspended ceiling
When installing directly in pipeline, e.g. in suspended ceilings (see Fig. 5), the units with small installation
depths fit everywhere. Installation is possible in any position – horizontal, vertical and diagonal.

Electrical connection / Commissioning
m
DANGER!
Touching live parts will lead to electric shock�
Isolate the unit from the mains power supply before connection!
m
DANGER!
Waiting period of at least 5 minutes!
When using capacitors, there is a danger to life after deactivation due to the direct touching of live parts� Ter-
minal compartment access is only permitted after the power supply is disconnected and a 5 minute waiting
period�
m
WARNING!
The rotating impeller can crush fingers�
Ensure protection against contact before commissioning!
– The electrical connection and initial commissioning must only be carried out by qualified electricians
according to the information in the attached wiring diagrams�
– All relevant standards, safety regulations (e.g. DIN VDE 0100), as well as the technical connection conditions of
energy suppliers are to be adhered to!
– A multipole mains section switch/isolator, with a minimum contact opening of 3 mm (VDE 0700 T1 7.12.2/
EN 60335-1) is mandatory!
– Network configuration, voltage and frequency must be consistent with the rating plate information..
– Check the waterproofing of the connection cable and tight clamping of the strands.
– Metal cable screws must not be used when connecting to plastic terminal boxes.
– Insert the supply line so that no water can get in along the cable in case of water exposure.
– Check designated use of fan
– Compare mains voltage to rating plate data
– Check fan for solid mounting and professional electrical installation
– Check all parts for tightness, particularly screws, protection guards. Do not loosen screws in the process!
– Check free movement of the impeller. Wear protective gloves when checking unhindered running of impeller!
– The motor will start automatically when the operating voltage is applied, a setpoint specification exists
(0-10V) and a release exists (type-dependent)� Accordingly, appropriate measures must be taken to protect
against access to touchable, dangerous, moving parts�
– When the impeller is turned by hand, there will be slight resistance due to the permanent magnets. This is for
technical reasons and it is not a malfunction
– Compare power consumption to rating plate data
– Check protective conductor connection
If a residual current device is installed in the supply line of the EC fan, the residual current device must have the following
technical features:
Type A or B with a rated differential current of 300 mA and delayed triggering (super resistant, characteristic K).
The EC fan has a leakage current of <= 3.5 mA, calculated according to DIN EN 50178 image 4.
ATTENTION:
The EC fan is intended exclusively for fixed installation, connection via plug is not permitted.

Operation
In order to ensure the proper functioning of the fan, the following must be checked regularly:
– Formation of dust or dirt deposits in the casing or on the motor and impeller
– Freewheeling of impeller. Wear protective gloves when checking freewheeling of impeller!
– Occurrence of excessive vibration and noise
If excessive vibration or noise occurs, maintenance must be carried out according to the instructions in CHAPTER 8.
