General Notes on Installation and Use
This fan unit is designed to be installed using 100mm PVC pipe as the initial connection duct to the fan
module, and is supplied with a 100mm PVC pipe to 150mm exible duct bell-mouth adaptor.
Ducting runs should be more than 2 metres away from the unit and no more than 4 - 5 metres (check
with supplier if longer duct length required). Flexible ducting must be extended sufciently to present
a smooth air passage with bends of at least the radius of twice the diameter of the duct.
WARNING: The Hi Flow VX120 motor system must not be ducted into a wall cavity or a ceiling space
where a build up of grease can occur and become a potential re risk. This will void your warranty.
NOTE: Fan module and dual foil exi-duct are acoustically matched. Use of semi-rigid or rigid ducting
will result in increased noise and void warranty. See installation instruction notes ‘Why exi-duct’.
Recommended Installation Distance
For Hi Flow VX120 motor, a minimum of 3 metres (approx.) is recommended.
NOTE: Installation closer than these distances may result in higher air noise level. Maximum duct
length 4 - 5 metres. Check with supplier if longer length is required. Do not reduce the duct size at
any time and avoid sharp bends.
