TESTS AND INSPECTIONS
INITIAL INSPECTION
1. First measures
Turn the control unit fuses to position 1.
Turn the safety switches to position 1.
Turn the control panel switch to position 0.
Switch on power to the control unit.
Reset the pressure transmitter to read 0 Pa.
The differential pressure transmitter must be switched on approx. 15
minutes before resetting.
Check that only the green “Operation” LED on the relay unit is on.
Check that the frequency converter is in the Auto/On mode and does
not display any error messages.
The yellow “Service” LED on the control panel should now be on.
Turn the PRESSURISATION switch on the control panel to the AUT po-
sition. The green STANDBY light should now come on.
2. Checking the operation of the hatch
To open the hatch, turn switch S3 inside the control unit to position 1.
If the hatch does not open, the reason may be that the safety switch
is in position 0 or the linear motor is incorrectly connected. To close
the hatch, return the switch to position 0.
4. Checking the operation of pressurisation
Close all stairwell doors.
Start pressurisation by turning the PRESSURISATION switch on the
control panel to position MAN. Alternatively, with the PRESSURISA-
TION switch in position AUT, pressurisation can be activated from an
external system or by triggering a smoke detector using test gas.
The red PRESSURISATION light on the control panel should come on.
The fan unit hatch opens.
In approximately 20 seconds, the fan will start running and air will
start flowing into the stairwell. If the flow of air is in the wrong direc-
tion, interchange the connection of two phase conductors to the fan
motor.
The frequency converter in the control unit adjusts the fan speed ac-
cording to the differential pressure value measured by the pressure
transmitter and tries to maintain an overpressure of, for instance, 50
(±5) Pa in the stairwell.
If the pressure will not rise, check the transmitter hoses and make
sure all doors are properly closed.
If the pressure oscillates too much, adjust the pressure controller ac-
cording to the instructions.
The intended air release path has to be kept open during testing to
reduce vibrating.
With the PRESSURISATION switch in position AUT, reset the relay unit
in the control unit by pressing the RESET button. The fan stops and
the hatch closes.
SEMI-ANNUAL INSPECTIONS
• Use the control panel switches to check the operation of the unit by
letting it run approx. 10 minutes (see Initial inspection).
ANNUAL INSPECTIONS
• Carry out the measures described under Initial inspection.
• Check that the hatch of the fan unit opens without trouble. Re-
move any obstructions. On the hatch opening motors, the following
should be checked.
1. Security of motor mountings
2. Protection against moisture
3. Operation (testing) and electrical connections of the motors
• Also check that the hinges of the hatch are properly secured, and
that the seals are tight.
• Check the condition of the transmitter hoses. Replace hoses as
necessary.
• For resetting the pressure transmitter the hoses need to be de-
tached from the transmitter. See installation of pressure transmit-
ter.
