4 Mounting
4.1 General notes
Attention!
•
Check the fan for damage, e.g. cracks, dents or damage to the electric cables, before
assembly. Start-up is not allowed in the case of transport damage!
•
Mounting is only to be undertaken by trained service personnel. The system
manufacturer or the machine builder and/or the user is responsible that the inherent
installation and security information are harmonized with the valid standard and
guidelines (EN ISO12100 / 13857).
•
Wear safety clothing / shoes and cut-resistant safety gloves when handling.
•
If necessary, lift the fan out of the packing with a hoisting unit.
•
At a weight greater than 25 kg for men / 10 kg for women, the fan should be lifted out
by two persons (according to REFA). The values may differ from country to country.
•
Prior to installing the fan, it is to be checked whether the safety zone as per EN ISO
13857 and in household appliances as per EN 60335 are met. If the installation height
(danger zone) above the reference level is greater than or equal to 2700 mm and is
not reduced by auxiliary means such as chairs, ladders, work platforms or bases on
vehicles, a guard grille against accidental contact is not necessary at the fan.
•
If the fan is located in danger zone, then the manufacturer or operator shall ensure
that hazards shall be prevented by appropriare protective constuctions which meet
the requirements to EN ISO 13857.
•
Protective measures against falling parts must be taken when installing external rotor
motors with suspended rotors.
•
The custom designs must suit the prevailing conditions.
•
Tighten the fastenings with the speci
fi
ed torques.
•
Do not allow drilling chips, screws and other foreign bodies to reach the device
interior!
•
Any use in ambient temperatures below -10
°
C is dependent on not being subjected to
unusual, sudden or mechanical loads or stresses on the material (for the min.
permissible ambient temperature please see the technical data).
•
Before the
fi
rst switch-on, remove any items that may be present (borings, screws and
other foreign objects) from the intake area - risk of injury from any objects that may
fl
y
out!
4.2 Particularities when mounting explosion protected fans
In terms of material selection, due to special protective measures relating to possible
contact surfaces between rotating and stationary components (impeller / inlet nozzle),
ZIEHL-ABEGG ER..C plug fans satisfy the requirements of the EN 14986 standard.
Steel plate (coated) is used as the material for the rotating component (impeller). If the
impeller is purchased without a ZIEHL-ABEGG inlet nozzle, the system manufacturer is
responsible for selecting the material for the stationary peripheral parts. Only material
pairs complying with EN 14986 may be used.
