This manual will provide you with installation, operation, and service instructions, as well as technical

data of the Bucket Fan series and Bucket Fan Whisper series.

Bucket Fans are used for equalizing the oor-to-ceiling temperature.This provides a more comfortable

thermal environment for occupants, while at the same time reducing energy costs. In the cold months

the overheated air at the roof is gently directed to the oor where it is needed and wanted. During the

warm months for buildings that are air conditioned, Bucket Fans help push the cold air coming from

the registers at the ceiling to occupant level.

SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

During installation and operation, observe all codes and safety standards for your locale.

Always make sure the electricity is disconnected at the main power source prior to connection, adjust-

ment, servicing and/or repair operations.

Electrical connections should only be done by a qualied electrician.

Before connecting and powering up the Bucket Fan make sure that the unit is free of visible damage and

there are no foreign objects inside the unit that can damage the motor and/or impeller blades.

Misuse of the Bucket Fan and/or any unauthorized design alterations or modications voids the war-

ranty. VENTS US assumes no liability for misuse or and/or any unauthorized design alterations or modi-

cations.

• Under no circumstances should the Bucket Fan be operated in an environment with temperatures

exceeding the specications indicated on the motor name plate.

• The fan should never be operated in area where there are hazardous and/or explosive vapors .

Whenever a Bucket fan is rst installed, serviced, moved, or repaired the unit must be discon-

nected from the main power source.

MOUNTING AND

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

Prior to Installation:

Read and understand this entire manual. Should you have any questions before, during, or after

installation please call your seller or contact VENTS at 888-640-0925 or [email protected].

Check the product for any damage that may have occurred during shipping.

Rotate the impeller by hand to ensure it turns smoothly.

Mounting

The Bucket Fan comes with a set of Hanging/Safety Cables with Gripples. The set consists of two

Gripples and two cables with a toggle on one end.

NOTE: The Hanging and Safety Cables are the exact same, so there is no need to worry about which

one is which.

NOTE: The toggle ends are the ones that are inserted into the handle.

WARNING: Both the Hanging and Safety cables MUST be installed as directed.

Fig. 2 . Attaching the Bucket Fan with the Hanging Cable and Gripple.

Bucket Fan

Fig. 3

Tip: It is easier to attach the Hanging Cable and Gripple to the structure rst and then attach the fan

with the toggle.

1) Insert the cable into one of the openings in the Gripple

2) Place the cable over the I-beam, truss, or other structure from which it is being hung.

3) Insert the end of the cable into the other opening in the Gripple.

4) Adjust to desired height

5) Insert toggle into the top hole on the handle.

Attaching the Safety Cable

1) Insert the cable into one of the openings in the Gripple

2) Place the cable over the I-beam, truss, or other attaching structure at a 400to 500angle

3) Insert the end of the cable into the other opening in the Gripple.

4) Insert toggle into the top hole on the handle.

5) Take the slack out of the safety cable by pulling the cable through the Gripple.

NOTE: The cable should not be so tight as to be pulling the fan to one side. The cable should not be

so loose that the cable could get caught or tangled in the motor.

BUCKET FAN PARTS

The Bucket Fan can be angled if needed. All

it takes is a 13 mm socket wrench. Loosen the

bolts on either side of the fan, place at the angle

you want, then re-tighten the bolts.

1) Electrical junction box on protective grille.

2) Vibration absorbing mount

3) Metal case

4) Handle

5) Handle bolts

6) Casing

7) Sound-Insulation Layer

8) Airow Straightener

9) Wing Head bolt

Fig. 4

Fig. 5

The destraticator (see Fig. 5) consists of an

axial fan attached to the casing via the vibration

mounts.The destraticator has a polymer coated

steel casing.

The destraticator is equipped with a single-

phase asynchronous motor with an external

rotor and an axial impeller. The motor is

equipped with built-in thermal protection

enabling its automatic restarting and utilizes

rolling-element bearings. The motor protection

class is IP 44.

The Bucket Fan Whisper casing has special

perforation and a sound-insulating layer of

mineral wool to reduce the noise generated

by the axial fan. The Bucket Fan Whisper

destraticator has a ow straightener at the

discharge which ensures direct air ow and

maximum air throw distance.

The destraticator is mounted by means of the

bow bracket (Bucket Fan Whisper can be xed

with 15° steps) as well as the mounting and the

safety cables with threaded joints.

BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THERE IS NO POWER TO THE FAN,

YOU MUST DISCONNECT THE ELECTRICITY AT THE MAIN POWER SOURCE!

Annually:

1) Check to make sure the bolts are tight.

2) Check impeller for dirt or other matter. Clean if necessary.

• To clean, remove the four screws that secure the grille to the metal case.

• Remove the grille from the case and clean the blades with warm, soapy water. Avoid splashing

water on the motor.

• Wipe surfaces dry.

• Also clean the inside of the metal case while you are at it.

• Re-attach the grille to the case.

• Electrical wiring should only be done by a qualied electrician.

• Warranty will not cover equipment damage or failure that is caused by improper installation.

• If the fan did not come pre-wired or if a new wire is to be used, wire the fan as shown in the Figure

6 below.

• Use 18 AWG or greater wire.

1. Application

a) Motor Type – Shaded Pole, P.S.C. and Universal.

b) Required Load – Fans, Blowers and Speed Dependent Loads.

2. Wiring

Warning! Power must be turned o before wiring. Connect control in series with motor and line volt-

age; never connect control across line. Ground (Earth)** – Be sure to ground the control using the

green wire.

**Some models do not require grounding, therefore, a ground wire is not provided.

3. Mounting

a) Use 2”deep standard electrical box.

b) Secure control with outer bracket tabs.

4. Minimum Speed Adjustment

Important: If this option is not supplied, disregard Step 4 and continue to Step 5. This control was de-

signed to operate on motors used in diverse applications. A minimum speed adjustment is provided

to allow independent control of the minimum speed setting. Minimum speed adjustment ensures

motor runs with sucient torque to prevent stalling.

a) Motor must be in actual operating condition to achieve proper speed adjustment. Motor will

not slow down unless proper load is applied.

b) Turn main control knob to lowest speed position.

c) Locate and adjust minimum speed setting on front plate with screw driver (rotate clockwise to

decrease minimum speed; counter-clockwise to increase minimum speed).

Special Note: For 2.5 and 3.0 Amp models, adjustment of minimum speed is reversed. Rotate

clockwise to increase minimum speed; counter-clockwise to decrease minimum speed.

On some models minimum speed adjustment hole is located on side of control.

d) Motor will now operate from this preset minimum speed to full speed.
