Your Safety This guide is for the installation of the motor used in the Isodrive systems after the canopy/rangehood has been mounted on the wall or ceiling. (Refer to canopy/rangehood unit installation manual). NOTE: All PVC pipe and SteelFlexTM 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. · Airflow is dependant on installation and the ducting used. The result is based on the German DIN and European EN IEC 61591:2020+A11 testing criteria for rangehood performance and is focus on the removal of contaminants from the kitchen to the external atmosphere.The use of a smaller than 250mm ducting would result in a loss of airflow. · Simple installation: The motor mounts onto a 250mm PVC pipe for ultimate strength and allows for easy Dektite roof sealing. · Industrial quality motor and fan made in Germany and rated at 40,000 hours. · Motor is a high efficiency PSC type and rated at 150W costing around the same as two 70W light globes to run. · WARRANTY 10 YEARS return to manufacturer. Covers faulty manufacturing or components. It does not cover normal wear and tear, chemical or storm damage etc. (see warranty card for more information). General Notes on Installation and Use This fan unit is designed to be installed using 250mm (ISD) metal pipe as the initial connection duct to the fan module, and is supplied with a 250mm (ISD) metal pipe and 250mm (ISD) SteelFlexTM (see page 17 for installation details). This fan is suitable for connection to multiple duct runs with a minimum inlet area of 22,000mm2. When installing, maximum 8 metres of the 250mm SteelFlexTM ducting MUST be used and no more than 2 to 3 bends in the ducting. Where possible SteelFlexTM ducting must be extended sufficiently to present a smooth air passage with bends of at least the radius of twice the diameter of the duct. Excessive bends in the ducting will compromised extraction. WARNING: The rangehood must not be ducted into a wall cavity or a ceiling space, where a build up of grease can occur and become a potential fire risk. This will void your warranty. NOTE: Fan module and SteelFlexTM duct are acoustically matched. Use of semi-rigid or rigid ducting will result in increased noise and may void warranty. See installation instruction notes `Why Schweigen SteelFlexTM Safety Duct'. Recommended Installation Distance Isodrive 3250 motor, recommended 4 to 6 metres of SteelFlexTM ducting and with at least two bends. NOTE: Although less than 4 to 5 metres will increase extraction power this may result in a higher air noise level. Maximum duct length 8 metres (use 250mm ducting), however please be aware that increasing the duct length above 5 metre will decrease airflow. Check with supplier if longer duct length is required. Do not reduce the duct size at any time and avoid sharp bends. Page 5 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. Exhaust fans may adversely affect the safe operation of appliances burning gas or other fuels (including those in other rooms) due to back flow of combustion gases. These gases can potentially result in carbon monoxide poisoning. After installation of an exhaust fan such as a partition fan or a duct fan the operation of flued gas appliances should be tested by a competent person to ensure that back flow of combustion gases does not occur. Safety of Children This fan is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision. Replacement of Supply Cord If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a service agent or suitably qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. Why Schweigen SteelFlexTM Safety Duct Schweigen SteelFlexTM is an ultra-strong and flexible high-performance safety ducting made of Shirikon Firemesh® a tri-layer tear-resistant UV-treated sleeve. Both are developed by Schweigen the Silent Rangehood specialists, for quiet and efficient high-volume transfers of temperature-sensitive air. Engineered to enhance the health and safety of your home, Schweigen SteelFlexTM is antimicrobial treated, thermally insulated and acoustically dampened. It is fireproof, pest and crush proof with a treated surface that prevents the build-up of grease and bacteria. Schweigen's unique Isodrive system works in the opposite way to conventional rangehoods, pulling air through the hood and acoustically matched ducting, producing almost silent high volume flow. The use of a complete rigid or semi-rigid ducting system will allow an organ piping effect to occur; like a didgeridoo where a noise is produced at one end of a hollow rigid pipe and the noise is amplified out the other. The Isodrive system places the noise outside the house. WARNING: Installation without the use of at least the minimum recommended length of acoustically matched SteelFlexTM in the system will void performance expectations. Any installation problem must be reported to Schweigen. Call outs relating to incorrect installation will result in a service fee direct to the customer. Schweigen takes no responsibility for problems caused by faulty installation, this may void warranty. An experienced installer list can be obtained from Schweigen website www.schweigen.com.au or by calling 1300 881 693. Page 6 3.

Mount 250mm (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 when installing through a metal finished roof. DO NOT install on a over lapping join. Ensure that the PVC pipe protrudes a minimum of 50mm past the top of the Dektite, checking that the fan assembly clears the roof cladding at upper edge as shown in figure 1 -- Roof Mount Option. Pass power cord and plug through mounting flange and pipe, then out the slotted PVC pipe for connection to the socket coming from the canopy/rangehood. Refer to figure 1. Do not insert plug into socket outlet or switch on until installation has been completed. Fit fan module to pipe and fix in position using side locking screw. Certain external installation configurations may cause audible levels of noise to be heard due to the air being expelled from the motor. To minimize external noise disturbance you can use between 4 to 8 metres of SteelFlexTM duct to place the Isodrive motor in an appropriate position. Please be aware that the 3250 motor is capable of expelling air at 3250m3/hr. For more information on environmental noise limit and conditions please contact your local Council. We have a list of experienced installers available on the Schweigen website. Do not install the SteelFlexTM in a straight line and minimum of two gentle bends in the ducts is required.
