PNEG-876 APP Series Fans 9
3. Installation
Fans should be installed in an exterior wall located where there will be no obstructions to the flow of air
into or out of the fan.
Once a location has been determined, an opening should be made in the wall and framed to provide
enough clearance around the fan housing. (See rough opening chart on Page 10.)
Framing must be able to support the weight of the fan assembly.
Manual handling of the fans may result in serious injury. Where appropriate, use mechanical methods of
lifting during installation. Where manual handling is required, ensure you have adequate assistance.
Position fan assembly in the framed opening. Rigidly mount the housing side flanges to the framework
using mounting screws.
Remove electrical cover and connect power leads to motor terminals, using approved wiring method.
It is recommended to use the watertight connector included with the motor, if it is possible in the
application. (Motor terminal connection data is provided on motor nameplate and in this manual.) Use
adequate size wire for all branch and feeder runs. When speed control is used, follow the installation
procedures recommended by the speed control manufacturer.
Re-install electrical cover.
Unit is now ready for operation.
