Accessories | • SPI-125 C Iris damper — 6751 Installation and connection • Follow instructions in the manual which is delivered with the accessory. 5.5 5.5.1 Installation/Maintenance Outdoor/Exhaust air dampers If manual fan stop is activated, the unit should be provided with dampers in exhaust and outdoor ducts to avoid cold draught and risk of condensation when the unit has been stopped.
42 | Accessories Note: 24 VAC dampers can be powered and controlled only by using a relay mounting kit with a transformer (article number: 153548). This installation procedure describes how to connect dampers powered by 230 V~ with a relay mounting kit without transformer (article number: 153549). Installation and connection 1. Install dampers (U/V). 2. Connect control signal wires (24V, DO) coming out from the relay box (RL) to any free digital output on the connection board (CB). 3.
43 Accessories | 5.5.3 Pressure Guard A differential pressure switch is used to detect air pressure difference in a duct. The contact in the switch changes (on/ off) when air pressure exceeds the setpoint value. One of the possibilities is to use this device with a cooker hood which has an internal fan. Turned on cooker hood causes air pressure to increase in the exhaust air duct.
44 | Accessories 5.5.4 Multiple control panels Multiple control panels (up to 10) can be connected to one unit with the help of diverting plugs. A single diverting plug allows to connect two control panels. A diverting plug can be connected to another diverting plug to further increase the number of control panels that can be connected simultaneously.
