(Refer to rangehood installation manual on how to install the rangehood). NOTE: All PVC pipe and SteelFlex™ ducting measurements are referring to inside measurements, unless otherwise mentioned. Motor Features • Roof and wall mounting with IPX4 degree of weather protection. • Super quiet, long vane, backward curved centrifugal fan.
2. Your Safety Minimum Mounting Height This fan unit is intended for mounting at a minimum height of 2.1 metres (measured to the lower part of the fan impeller) above a floor or the ground. Avoidance of Back Flow Care should be taken to avoid the back flow of gases into the room from the open flue of gas or other open fire appliances. Safety of Children This fan is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision.
3. Description NOTE For more SteelFlex™ ducting instructions, refer page 19. Isodrive Motor 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Included in the box: 1. Isodrive 1600 motor (405W x 220H mm approx.) Approx. 3 metre, 10amp cable and standard plug 2. Fire resistant 150mm (160mm outside dimension) PVC riser pipe 3. SteelFlex™ safety ducting. Approx. 6 metres, 200mm (210mm outside dimension) diameter 4. Bell-mouth adapter ring 200mm duct to 150mm riser 5.
4. Installation Roof Installation Recommended duct length: 1600 motor — 5 to 6 metres. Mount 150mm (ISD) rigid PVC pipe securely to beams, trusses or other appropriate structures: refer figure 1. The pipe should be mounted vertically with the roof penetration being sealed using a Dektite or other appropriate sealing membrane or device.

4. Installation Flat Roof Installation Flat roof mounting using optional mounting flange*.
4. Installation IMPORTANT It is a requirement to use the hanging bracket for all wall mount installations. Please refer to the illustrations for mounting. Wall Installation This type of installation is similar to roof mounting, ensuring that the pipe extends at least 50mm past the wall surface refer figure 3. If the pipe length is shortened, reproduce the power cord exit slot on the inside of the wall.
4. Installation IMPORTANT: When mounting pipe motor locking holes to be in outside end of pipe (motor end) Min 150mm long 150mm PVC pipe Locking holes at 10 and 4 o’clock Bell-mouth Adaptor Hanging bracket Weather shield upper most Locking Screw SteelFlex™ 200mm ducting Ring clamp 1600 motor Min 50mm Cord slots at bottom (6 o’clock position) NOTE: Ensure that power cord is fed through exit slot and is not allowed to double back restricting motor inlet.
4. Installation Through Wall Installation with Backdraft Shutter Due to the weight and to create stability for the Isodrive 1600 motor, it is require to use a hanging bracket. Warranty will be void if a hanging bracket is not used.
4. Installation Fan Unit Shutter Assembly for Isodrive 1600 1. Assemble by fitting shutter assembly into fan inlet shroud moulding, ensuring that attaching screws align with holes. Alignment can be checked visually by folding in shutter flaps. 2. Fully tighten both screws and re-check fitment into holes. 3. Fit assembly to duct pipe as per installation instructions supplied.
4. Installation Twin Motor Installation (suitable for rangehoods with two 200mm outlets) Where two motors are to be used, follow the method below. Each motor should have a separate flue pipe. Refer figure 7. The two motors can be wired by an electrician. 1600 motor Z: Minimum distance between the two fans is 600mm Z Backdraft shutter Must have separate flue pipe for twin fan installation Connect to rangehood Connect to motor Use smooth flowing curves for maximum airflow.
4. Installation Twin Motor Installation (suitable for rangehoods with one 200mm outlet) Where two motors are to be used and there is only one 200mm outlet, follow the below methods for each motor then join into the “Y” piece prior to joining ducting to the canopy / rangehood. Refer figure 8.
4. Installation Single Motor Installation Twin 200mm Outlet (suitable for rangehoods with two 200mm outlets and one 1600 Isodrive motor) This is for use where one motor is to be used and there are two 200mm outlets, refer figure 9. 1600 motor Ensure SteelFlex™ ducting is fully extended and as short as possible. Use smooth flowing curves for maximum air flow. Remove excess ducting by trimming to length. 200 x 200 x 200mm If multi-fit Y joint supplied you will need to cut to size.
5. Measurements Measurements for Isodrive 1600 (Not to Scale) 400mm 205mm 300mm 190mm 80mm 35mm 110mm 320mm 50mm 515mm Dektite 160mm Motor weight: 6kg net.
6. SteelFlex™ Safety Duct SteelFlex™ Safety Ducting SteelFlex™ safety ducting must be fully extended and cut to the required length upon installation. Maximum fan performance will not be achieved unless the ducting is fully extended. Failure to fully extend ducting results in a smaller air passage and lower airflows. Incorrect installation may reduce airflow or increase noise levels. Call outs relating to incorrect installation will result in a service fee directed to the customer.
6. SteelFlex™ Safety Duct Assembling SteelFlex™ Safety Duct SteelFlex™ safety duct must be secured to either the bell-mouth adapter ring or a 200mm mounting pipe. Parts required: 1. SteelFlex™ safety ducting 2. Steel ring clamp 3. Bell-mouth adapter ring 200mm duct to 150mm riser 4. 150mm PVC riser pipe 5. 20mm self-drilling button head screws 1. Slide the steel ring clamp over the end of the duct then insert the bell-mouth adapter ring into the duct end 1 2 3 4 2.
6. SteelFlex™ Safety Duct Shallow Roof Space In shallow roof spaces, do not crush or kink SteelFlex™ ducting, as it will reduce air flow severely. 90 degree curve made of PVC or galvanise can be used as a substitute for the bend. Use 90 degree curve PVC or galvanise curve to prevent crushing Figure 13: Shallow roof space Important Note Please do not crush or kink SteelFlex™ ducting, as it will reduce air flow and may cause noise to occur through the system. Ducting needs to be kept taut at all times.
6. SteelFlex™ Safety Duct Securing SteelFlex™ Safety Duct SteelFlex™ safety duct must be installed with supports at maximum intervals of 1.5 metres. SteelFlex™ safety ductwork can be supported by using good quality gaffer or aluminium foil tape. Provided that it does not restrict the internal diameter of the ducting. Ducting installed looped over hanging beams should be installed in such a manner as to ensure the changes of direction are gradual.
