This document outlines the operating instructions for the S4E350-AG06-28 device, a built-in fan designed for conveying air. The manual emphasizes safety regulations, technical specifications, proper installation, and maintenance procedures to ensure safe and efficient operation.

Function Description

The S4E350-AG06-28 is an axial fan, specifically designed as a built-in component for air conveyance. Its primary function is to move air within a specified range of ambient air pressure (800 mbar to 1050 mbar) and within permitted ambient temperature ranges. The fan operates with a single-phase motor, and its design incorporates protective features to ensure safe operation. The device is intended for use with all protective devices in place and in accordance with the provided operating instructions. It is crucial to avoid improper use, such as operating the device in an unbalanced state, with severe vibration, or in explosive atmospheres, as this can lead to hazards or damage. The fan's rotor and impeller are energized in the event of a fault, and the motor can restart automatically after a power failure, necessitating caution during maintenance.

Usage Features

The device is designed for specific installation and operational conditions.

• Mechanical Connection: The fan must be carefully removed from packaging to avoid damage. It should not be subjected to force or excessive vibration from the installation. If connected to air ducts, vibration isolation (e.g., compensators) is recommended. The device must be securely positioned before tightening all fastening screws.
• Electrical Connection: The fan is a built-in component without a disconnecting switch, so it must be connected to circuits that can be switched off with an all-pole disconnection switch. Always connect a protective earth first. Cables must meet specified installation regulations for voltage, current, insulation material, and capacity. The protective earth must have a cross-section equal to or greater than the phase conductor. The use of 105 °C cables is recommended, with a minimum cross-section of AWG 26/0.13 mm². Water ingress into wires or cables must be prevented by ensuring the cable end is connected in a dry environment and by routing cables in a U-shaped loop, especially for fans installed lying flat. For upright installations, cable glands should be at the bottom, and cables routed downward.
• Terminal Box Connection: Cables should be stripped only as far as necessary to ensure the cable gland is sealed and connections are strain-free. Wires must be inserted until they meet resistance, and the terminal box must be sealed properly.
• Voltage Control: Speed control implemented by transformers or electronic voltage regulators (e.g., phase control) may cause current overshoots, noise, and vibration, potentially leading to bearing damage.
• Variable Frequency Drive: Use of variable frequency drives requires consultation with ebm-papst. Sinusoidal filters on all poles (phase-phase and phase-ground) are necessary to protect the motor against high-voltage transients and harmful bearing currents. The customer must check motor heating when using such drives.

Maintenance Features

Regular maintenance and safety inspections are crucial for the device's longevity and safe operation.

• Cleaning: The device should not be cleaned with water jets, high-pressure cleaners, or acidic/alkaline/solvent-based cleaning agents. Pointed or sharp-edged objects should also be avoided.
• Safety Inspection:
  • Contact protection cover: Visual inspection every 6 months for intactness or damage. Repair or replace if necessary.
  • Device for damage to blades and housing: Visual inspection every 6 months. Replace if damaged.
  • Fastening the cables: Visual inspection every 6 months. Fasten if loose.
  • Fastening the protective earth terminal: Visual inspection every 6 months. Fasten if loose.
  • Insulation of cables for damage: Visual inspection every 6 months. Replace cables if damaged.
  • Tightness of cable gland: Visual inspection every 6 months. Retighten or replace if damaged.
  • Condensation drainage holes for clogging: Visual inspection every 16 months. Open holes if clogged.
  • Welds for crack formation: Visual inspection every 6 months. Replace device if cracks are found.
• Troubleshooting:
  • Impeller not running smoothly: Possible cause is imbalance in rotating parts. Remedy: Clean the device; replace if imbalance persists. Ensure no weight clips are removed during cleaning.
  • Motor not turning: Possible cause is mechanical blockage. Remedy: Switch off, isolate from supply, and remove mechanical blockage.
  • Line voltage faulty: Check line voltage, restore power supply.
  • Faulty connection: Isolate from supply, correct connection; see connection diagram.
  • Thermal overload protector activated: Allow motor to cool off, locate and rectify cause of error, release restart lockout if necessary.
  • Impermissible point of operation: Check point of operation.
  • Ambient temperature too high: Reduce ambient temperature if possible.
  • Deficient cooling: Improve cooling.
  • Abnormal bearing noise: Acoustic check every 6 months. Replace device if necessary.
• Disposal: The product components (steel, copper, aluminum, plastic, insulating materials, cables, electronic scrap, ferrite magnets) should be separated for recycling according to country-specific legal regulations. Disassembly should be performed or supervised by qualified personnel, taking care with heavy components.
