b 4-way air flow (with closed corners) (optional blocking pad kit required)
c 3-way air flow (optional blocking pad kit required)
▪ Ceiling insulation. When conditions in the ceiling exceed 30°C and a relative
humidity of 80%, or when fresh air is inducted into the ceiling, then additional
insulation is required (minimum 10mm thickness, polyethylene foam).
▪ Spacing. Mind the following requirements:

▪ A: Minimum distance to the wall. Depends on the airflow directions towards the
wall.
a Air outlet and corners open
b Air outlet closed, corners open (optional blocking pad kit required)
c Air outlet and corners closed (optional blocking pad kit required)
▪ B: Minimum and maximum distance to the floor:
- Minimum: 2.7m to avoid accidental touching.
- Maximum: Depends on the airflow directions and the capacity class. See
"7.1Field setting"[443].
INFORMATION
Maximum distance to the floor for the 3-way and the 4-way airflow (which require an
optional blocking pad kit) may differ. See the installation manual of the optional
blocking pad kit.
