These Panasonic ceiling mount ventilating fan models use a sirocco fan with dolphin-shaped blades driven by

a capacitor motor.

The motor is designed to have an extended service life with reduced energy consumption.

It also incorporates a thermal-cutoff for safety.The grille can be quickly detached from the main unit. A damper

for preventing air counterflow is provided. The blower uses a high-capacity sirocco fan developed to reduce the

noise level.

The light unit is an energy-saving, lighting device which uses two 18W fluorescent lamps and produces almost

the same illumination as a standard 100W incandescent lamp.
