Safety instructions for the installation of the plastic shutter
Preparing the shaft and suspended ceiling
- Make an opening in the suspended ceiling.
- Make an opening in the shaft for DN 75 or DN 80 connection duct.
- Correctly attach main ventilation duct inside the shaft.
- For fire protection systems, use ceiling compound. To do this, encase the ceiling and pour in the material from above.
- Fit duct attachments to the ceiling (Preparations for the ER-APB ceiling installation (with fire protection)). Only use permitted mounting material.
Risk of incorrect installation if non-permitted mounting material is used.
- Only secure connection duct to ceiling with permitted mounting material (duct clamp or clamping band).
- Connect permitted connection duct to main duct and seal for ventilation, for example with cold-shrink tape.
- Apply wall/board compound. Seal gap between brickwork and folded spiral-seams duct. The gap remaining must be fully sealed with non-flammable materials that are resistant to deformation. For example, use concrete or cement mortar or for wall boards, use fire protection filler.
- Fit suspended ceiling. Ensure a suitable, flat surface so that the fan insert can be safely inserted in the housing later on.
- Lay power cable: Preparations for wall, shaft or ceiling installation without fire protection.
