Sidewall Propeller Fans 3
• Check chart below for correct wall opening
dimensions.
• Check motor voltage and amperage rating for
compatibility with electrical supply. Supply wiring
must be properly fused and conform to local and
national codes.
• Motor load amperage must be checked and
compared to nameplate rating to avoid serious
damage to motor when speed is increased.
Wall Opening Requirements
Wall opening size and propeller-to-damper distance
are two important dimensions for fan installation. Fans
mounted to the wall require a different wall opening
(W.O.) size than those mounted in collars or wall
housings. Propeller-to-damper distance (M) is important
to reduce turbulence and damper flutter which may lead
to premature damper failure.
Figure 1 and 2 show the wall opening (W.O.) required
for installations with either a wall housing or collar.
Figure 3 shows the recommended wall opening (W.O.)
and the minimum distance (M) suggested between the
fan and damper for direct to wall installations.
Figure 4 shows the dimensions and wall opening
(W.O.) required for installations with a filtered supply
wall housing.
