Adjustment
Check line voltage
Check motor connection and line voltage
Replace fan
Check for free air passages; remove foreign bodies if necessary
"Impeller blocked or dirty"
Check temperature of supply air
Check voltage
- Switch off power to the motor and secure against switching back on
- Check safe isolation from supply
- Remove safety grille
- Remove foreign bodies or soiling
- Remount the safety grille
- Further procedure as in the chapter "Start-up"
Insert bearing with cold greasing
Check air stream
"Fan turns too slowly"
Check for free air passages (supply/exhaust air vents, filters)
"Impeller blocked or dirty"
Check blades for damage, soiling or ice
Install correct vibration dampers
Change bearings
(for motor size "Z" replace fan)
