If wall mounting the fan, you will also need:
• A 100mm diameter prepared hole.
• An appropriate external Wall Grille and
Ø100mm wall sleeve duct (supplied). Cut
ducting to correct length if required. The
wall tube supplied is telescopic and can be
extended to 300mm maximum.
If ceiling mounting the fan, you will also need:
• A 100mm diameter prepared hole.
• A 100mm diameter prepared hole for the
external grille, ideally positioned to allow
condensation to run away from the first bend
in the duct towards the external grille.
• Appropriate ancillaries for termination. These
items are available from Xpelair:
1. 3m flexible ducting Ref: 89663AA. If the
duct passes through a cold space use
insulated duct ref: 89847AA.
2. Soffit Grille Ref: 89742AW
If window mounting the fan, you will also need:
• SSWIN - Simply Silent Window Kit.
Ref: 92996AA
Installing the isolating switch
and cables.
A means for disconnection in all poles
must be incorporated in the fixed wiring
in accordance with wiring regulations
• If metal switch boxes are used, earthing
regulations must be followed.
• The cross-sectional area of the supply cord
used should be ranged from 1-1.5mm².
• DX100R / DX100S / DX100PR / DX100PS /
DX100PIRR / DX100PIRS – 2 core,
• DX100TR / DX100TS / DX100HTR* /
DX100HTR* / DX100HPTR* / DX100HPTS* –
3 core. * If wiring to remote switch.
1. Check that the electrical rating shown inside
the back-plate matches your mains supply.
2. Check there are no buried pipes or cables
e.g. electricity, gas, water behind the switch
location (in the wall or above the ceiling). If in
doubt, seek professional advice.
3. Isolate the mains supply.
4. Lay in the cable from the isolating switch
to the fan location via the on/off switch (if
required).
5. Lay in the cable from the isolating switch to
the point of connection to the mains supply.
Warning: Do not make any
connections to the electrical supply
at this stage.
6. Install the isolating switch and on/off switch
(if required).
7. Make all connections within the isolating
switch and the on/off switch (if required).
Wet Rooms: On/Off switch must
be situated so that it cannot be
touched by persons making use of
the bath or shower.
For Australia Only – DX100R / DX100S
/ DX100PR / DX100PS / DX100PIRR /
DX100PIRS
Connection to the supply can be
made by a flexible 2-core cable complete with
3 pin plug for insertion into an approved 10A
GPO or directly wired through an approved 10A
wall mounted surface switch with at least 3mm
clearance between contacts.
For Australia Only –DX100TR / DX100TS
/ DX100HTR / DX100HTS / DX100HPTR /
DX100HPTS
These models are permanently
connected to the supply and operation is
controlled by a remote switch. They should
be directly wired to the supply through an
approved 10A wall mounted surface switch
with at least 3mm clearance between contacts.
Preparing the Fan for installation.
1. Remove the front cover by depressing the
latch on the underside of the cover and
pulling off the front cover from the bottom
(See Figure C).
If working above ground floor
level, safety precautions must be
observed.
Mark the position of the back-plate
2. Hold the back-plate so that the level line
marked on it is orientated horizontally.
3. Carefully insert the fan tube into the wall duct.
4. Mark on the wall the positions of the fixing
holes in the back-plate.
5. Remove the back plate from the ducting.
6. Drill screw holes in these positions if necessary,
and fit wall plugs and screws as required.
If installing in a ceiling, appropriate
termination ancillaries are required.
Follow instructions provided.
Mount the back-plate.
7. Push the ribbed gasket onto the duct
section of the back plate (see Figure D).
8. Push the larger diameter piece of the telescopic
wall tube onto the ribbed gasket. Cut the tube
to the required size first if necessary.
9. Feed the mains cable through the cable
entry hole in the back plate to the terminals.
