This appliance is designed to control the operation of Xpelair
fans of the GX9, GX12, WX9, WX12, RX9 & RX12 ranges
(wall & window mounted). The controller may be either surface
mounted, or recess mounted within it’s own patress box. You
may only wire one fan to each controller. For the purpose of these instructions current and previous
versions of the fans are identified into Type A & Type B, as
follows:
If wiring to Type A fans
A link is fitted between terminals 2 and 3 in the fan socket,
this must be removed before connecting the Controller.
If you do not remove it, the Controller will be permanently
damaged.
If wiring to Type B fans
There is no wire link to be removed.
If the fan is already installed
1 Ensure the power supply is isolated.
2 Disconnect the mains connections from the fan’s
terminal socket or from the terminal block.
3 Remove the existing wiring and make it safe.
1 Route the 5-core cable from the Fan to the Controller
position.
2 Wire one end of the cable into the fan connections as
shown thus:
3 Leave the other end ready to be connected to the
Controller.
