Installation
N.B.
The appliance is not suitable for outdoor installation.
The appliance must be installed in accordance with current
safety regulations in the destination country, and with the
instructions in this booklet. The appliance must be fitted to an
interior surface or wall of the dwelling that is structurally sound
enough to take its weight (25 kg max. mod. 200, 38 kg max.
mod. 350).
Ensure that connections to the appliance are optimised and
simplified by strategic positioning of the junction box, from
which the wires emerge (Fig.3).
Ceiling installation
Various mounting options are available: Vortice recommends
fixing the appliance to the ceiling, using the special brackets
supplied (Fig.4).
In any event, after mounting the appliance, check that it is
perfectly level in order to ensure faultless operation. The ducts
used for conveying air must be of the correct size.
The ducts to and from the outdoors must be thermally
insulated and not subject to vibration.
The 125 mm (mod. 200) and 150 mm (mod. 350) standard
diameter inlet and outlet pipes must be secured to the
corresponding ports of the appliance by means of clips or other
suitable fastening systems.
If stale air is exhausted via the roof, the outlet must be
designed so as to prevent the formation of condensate and the
entry of rain water.
If fresh air enters via the roof, the intake must be designed so
as to prevent the formation of condensate and the entry of rain
water.
Condensate drain
During normal operation, condensate collects at the bottom of
the appliance in a double tray provided with two drain outlets.
The connection points are located on the bottom of the
appliance (Fig. 5). The condensate drain can be provided by
connecting the drain outlets to two flexible hoses with an
internal diameter of 19 mm approx.
To avoid the formation of air bubbles, create a siphon trap in
the hose connected to the outlet on the appliance denoted 1,
as illustrated in Fig. 5b.
Cut the end of the hose obliquely.
N.B.
The siphon must be created observing the dimensions
indicated in Fig. 5c; otherwise, correct operation of the
appliance cannot be guaranteed.
Condensate can also be drained off through the waste
plumbing system of the building.
