2. Your Safety This guide is for the installation of the Isodrive motor system after the canopy/rangehood or bathroom extraction grill has been mounted on the wall or ceiling. (Refer to canopy/rangehood or bathroom extraction unit installation manual). NOTE: All PVC pipe and flexi 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 Isodrive Motor Included in the box: 1 2 3 4 1. Isodrive 900 motor (280W x 200H mm approx.) Approx. 3 metre, 10amp cable and standard male plug 2. Fire resistant 150mm (160mm OD1) PVC riser pipe Note: Cable cut-out at the bottom end only 3. Flexible ducting Approx. 6 metres, 200mm (210mm OD1) diameter 4.
4. Installation 900 motor 50mm Pipe protrusion above dektite Power Cord 150mm PVC Pipe (Locking holes fan end) Dektite Fix fan module using side locking screw Fit side supports to locate pipe Strap to supports Bell-mouth Adaptor Connect to rangehood NOTE: Prevent any cord bunching by pulling cord through from plug top end Connect to power supply NOTE: Minimum ducting length 4 metres. Fully extend flexible ducting, cut to length.
4. Installation Roof Installation Recommended duct length: minimum 4 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. Ensure that the PVC pipe protrudes at least 50mm past the top of the Dektite, checking that the fan assembly clears the roof cladding at upper edge, refer figure 1.
4. Installation 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 2. If the pipe length is shortened, reproduce the power cord exit slot on the inside of the wall. NOTE: By decreasing the length of the flexi duct from which specified (refer to installation instructions) there will be an increase in airflow and noise levels as a result.
4. Installation IMPORTANT: When mounting pipe fan locking holes to be in outside end of pipe (fan end) Min 150mm long 150mm PVC pipe Locking holes at 10 and 4 o’clock Bell-mouth Adaptor Flexible 200mm ducting Min 50mm 900 motor 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 fan inlet.
4. Installation Flat Roof Installation Flat roof mounting using optional mounting flange*.
4. Installation Installation Through Wall for Isodrive 900 Fan Unit Optional Shutter Assembly (200mm BDSS BUILD ASS)* Ensure that power cable passes through the cover plate notched recess and is clear of cut edges Optional wall cover plate with notch at bottom P1108* Minimum pipe protrusion from wall surface Wall 47mm Power cord Wall cover plate (optional part) Slot in pipe at bottom (6 O’Clock) *Optional parts are available from Schweigen, please contact 1300 829 066.
4. Installation Fan Unit Shutter Assembly for Isodrive 900 (Optional) 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 200mm Outlet Installation Example This is for use where one motor is to be used and there are two 200mm outlets, refer figure 11. 900 motor Ensure flexible 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 900 (Not to Scale) 278mm 157mm 198mm 131mm 53mm 242mm 440mm Dektite 160mm Shutter assembly (optional) is not shown in the diagram.
6. Flexible Duct Flexible Ducting Flexible 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. Flexible Duct Shallow Roof Space In shallow roof spaces, do not crush or kink flexible 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, refer to figure 12. 90 degree curve PVC or galvanise curve Figure 12 Important Note Please do not crush or kink flexible 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. Flexible Duct Securing Flexible Duct Flexible duct must be installed with supports at maximum intervals of 1.5 metres. Flexible ductwork can be supported by using gaffer or electrical 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. Support of the ducting with the use of hangers may be required, see option 2.
