A. INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT: The fan should only be used in conjunction with fixed wiring.

PANEL/CEILING MOUNTING

1. For panel/ceiling mounting the fan should be installed into a closed duct system of at least 1.2m

long or protected by an exterior air grille that must comply with the standard requirements of your

country to prevent access to the fans impeller.

2. Cut a 105mm diameter hole for 100mm fans, a 130mm hole for 125mm fans or a 155mm

diameter hole for 150mm fans.

3. Loosen the screw at the bottom of the grille and remove the front grille. Mark the screw centres

through the holes in the fan back plate. Drill, plug and screw into position.

4. Replace the grille and tighten the retaining screw.

5. After installation, ensure impeller rotates freely and the shutters can open.

WALL MOUNTING

1. For wall mounting either cut a 115mm diameter hole for 100mm fans, a 140mm hole for 125mm

fans or a 170mm diameter hole for 150mm fans, through the wall and insert the wall sleeve.

Slope the sleeve slightly downwards away from the fan. Cut to length and cement both ends into

position flush with the wall faces.

2. Loosen the screw in the bottom of the grille and remove the front grille. Mark the screw centres

through the holes in the fan back plate. Drill, plug and screw into position. Fix exterior grille into

position with the louvres positioned downwards. (Note:- The grille must comply with the standard

requirements of your country to prevent access to the fans impeller. The wall kit used in this

installation should provide a minimum ducting length of 60mm from the fans back plate to the

inside of the external grille).

3. Replace the grille and tighten the retaining screw.

4. After installation, ensure impeller rotates freely and the shutters can open.

SILHOUETTE 100B/125B/150X

Single speed fan. Controlled by remote switch (e.g. light switch or auto sensor) Fig.2.

SILHOUETTE 100T/125T/150XT

Single speed with overrun timer. The fan can be wired to a lighting circuit switch. Fig.4. or wired for a

basic on/off operation wire as Fig 3.

When switched ‘ON’, the fan will operate at full speed and will continue to run for a pre-set time after the

switch is turned ‘OFF’.

TIMER ADJUSTMENT

BEFORE ADJUSTING THE TIMER, SWITCH OFF THE MAINS SUPPLY. TIMER SHOULD

ONLY BE ADJUSTED BEFORE OR DURING INSTALLATION.

1. Remove the fan grille. The controller is factory set at 15 minutes approx. The overrun time

period can be adjusted from 5-25 minutes by altering the adjuster on the control PCB.

2. To REDUCE the operating time, use a small screwdriver to turn the adjuster Fig.5. ANTI-

CLOCKWISE.

3. To INCREASE the operating time, use a small screwdriver to turn the adjuster Fig.5.

CLOCKWISE.

4. Replace the fan grille.

SILHOUETTE 100HT/125HT/150XHT

The fan contains an integral humidity controller. In automatic mode the controller switches the fan on at

full speed when the room Relative Humidity (RH) reaches the set-point. The fan will continue to run until

the room RH falls below the set-point.

These fans also include a built in timer function. The timer can be activated by removing the Jumper

JP1, this will give the fan a fixed over run time of approx. 15 mins.

BEFORE ADJUSTING THE CONTROLLER, SWITCH OFF THE MAINS SUPPLY. HUMIDISTAT

SHOULD ONLY BE ADJUSTED BEFORE OR DURING INSTALLATION.

1. Remove the fan grille. The controller is factory set to switch on at about 70% RH. The

humidity set point can be adjusted from 65-95%RH by altering the adjuster on the control

PCB.

2. To LOWER the set-point use a small screwdriver to turn the adjuster Fig.6. ANTI-

CLOCKWISE. This makes the controller MORE sensitive.

3. To RAISE the set-point use a small screwdriver to turn the adjuster Fig.6. CLOCKWISE.

This makes the controller LESS sensitive.

4. Replace the fan grille.

NOTE! DO NOT TOUCH HUMIDITY SENSOR.
