Operating instructions
2. PROPER USE
The device is exclusively designed as a built-in device for moving air
according to its technical data.
Any other or secondary use is deemed improper and constitutes a
misuse of the device.
Installations on the customer's side must meet the mechanical, thermal
and service life-related stresses that can occur.
Proper use also includes:
● Use the device in power systems with earthed neutral (TN/TT power
systems) only.
● Only using the device in stationary systems.
● Carrying out all maintenance.
● Moving air with a density of 1.2 kg/m³.
● Using the device in accordance with the permitted ambient
temperature, see chapter 3.6 Transport and storage conditions and
chapter 3.2 Nominal data.
● Operating the device with all protective features in place.
● Minding the operating instructions.
Improper use
Using the device in the following ways is particularly prohibited and
may cause hazards:
● Operating the device with an imbalance, e.g. caused by dirt deposits
or icing.
● Operation in medical equipment with a life-sustaining or lifesaving
function.
● Operation with external vibrations.
● Moving solids content in flow medium.
● Painting the device
● Connections (e.g. screws) coming loose during operation.
● Opening the terminal box during operation.
● Moving air that contains abrasive particles.
● Moving highly corrosive air, e.g. salt spray mist. Exceptions are
devices that are intended for salt spray mist and protected accordingly.
● Moving air that contains dust pollution, e.g. suctioning off saw dust.
● Operating the device close to flammable materials or components.
● Operating the device in an explosive atmosphere.

→ Make sure that the cable end is connected in a dry 4.3 Connection in terminal box
environment.
4.3.1 Preparing connection lines for the connection
Connect the device only to circuits that can be switched off
using an all-pole disconnecting switch. Strip the cable just enough so that the screwed cable gland is tight and
the terminals are relieved of strain. Tightening torque, see chapter 3.1
4.2.1 Prerequisites Product drawing.
; Check whether the data on the type plate agree with the connection
data.
; Before connecting the device, ensure that the supply voltage matches
the operating voltage of the device.
; Only use cables designed for current according to the type plate.
For determining the cross-section, follow the basic principles in
accordance with EN 61800-5-1. The protective earth must have a
cross-section equal to or greater than the outer conductor cross-
section.
We recommend the use of 105°C cables. Ensure that the minimum
cable cross-section is at least
AWG26/0.13 mm². 4.3.2 Connecting cables with terminals

Use a screwdriver to do so.
4.2.2 Residual current operated device During the connection work, ensure that no cables splice off.
The terminal strip is equipped with a penetration prevention device.

In addition, noises can occur with phase angle control
depending on the mounting situation.
