3.5 Transport, storage
Attention!
•
Observe the weight specifications (see rating plate) and the permissible carrying loads of the means
of transport.
•
Wear safety clothing / shoes and cut-resistant safety gloves when handling!
•
Do not transport the fan by the connecting cable!
•
Avoid shocks and impacts to the device during the transport.

Avoid extreme humidity, heat or exposure to cold (see technical data).
•
Watch out for possible damage to the packaging or fan.
•
Secure pallets during transport.
•
Do not stack pallets.
•
Only handle with suitable hoisting gear.
•
Position the lifting beam transversely to the motor axis. Pay attention to adequate width of the lifting
beam.
•
Never stand underneath the suspended fan because defective transport equipment could cause
death.
•
Store the fan / motor in the original packaging in a dry area protected from the weather and protect
it from dirt and weather until final installation.
•
Avoid prolonged storage; we recommend a maximum of one year (consult the manufacturer before
starting if stored for longer).
•
Inspect the bearing for proper operation prior to installation.
– Recommendation: Turn the impeller evenly by hand to avoid jamming and damaging the
bearing.
•
Transport the fan(s) either in the original packaging or, in the case of larger fans, on the dedicated
transportation fixtures.
– axial fans: holes drilled in support arms, wall ring plates and motor block
– centrifugal fans depending on type: holes drilled in the housing flange, motor block, fastening
brackets and support plates,
•
Radial impellers, fans with scroll RG.., RD.. or built-in fans type ER../GR.., WR.. are generally
delivered on europallets, and can be transported using lift trucks.
•
Design RG.. / RD.. / ER.. / GR../ WR../HR.. : Fan unit may only be lifted and transported when
using a suitable hoisting device (load spreader). Ensure sufficient cable or chain length.
– Design WR: lifting several fan units mounted on top of one another or next one other is not
permitted!
•
Design FV.. / DN.. : The fan must be fastened to 4 points during transport so the flanges do not
warp.
