Inserting The Mounting Tube; Making The Hole In The Wall - S&P PULSE 160 Manual De Instrucciones

5. INSTALLATION

5.1. MAKING THE HOLE IN THE WALL

Depending on how the unit is to be
installed please follow either the
instructions for the use of a pre-
fabricated installation block or for
core-drilling a hole through the wall.
5.1.1. Use of a core-drilled hole
Drill a hole in the wall using a core drill and a 162
mm bit. The hole must have a gradient of 1–3°,
allowing any condensate to fl ow outwards. It is
best to drill the hole from inside to outside.
INSIDE
When core drilling, please make
sure that there is adequate protec-
tion from falling masonry on the out-
side of the building, ensuring that no
person or material will be harmed/
damaged.

5.2. INSERTING THE MOUNTING TUBE

Measure the thickness of the wall. Should any
plastering still need to be done, allow for plaster
thickness when shortening the mounting tube.
Shorten the mounting tube using a sabre saw in
such a way that the mounting tube ends are fl ush
with both inside and outside walls. In the inside-
facing side of the mounting tube, cut a 10 mm wide
and 30 mm long slit (1). This will be used later to
accommodate the BUS cable to the fan unit. When
using thicker cables, the slit will need to be wider.
Coat the outside of the mounting tube with the
OUTSIDE
sealant (2) and insert it into the hole (3).
Pay attention to how long the sealant needs to dry.
Proceed to the next step.
When using a special solution, plea-
se refer to its specifi c instructions.
Make sure that the mounting tube is
fi xed and sealed at the outside wall
before you continue to the next step.
When using a metal hood on the out-
side wall, the mounting tube must
not be fl ush with the outside wall,
but must protrude ca. 5 mm.
Insert the plastering covers into the
mounting tube. Only continue insta-
llation work once all building work
has been completed.
