General Safety Information
Only qualified personnel should install this system.
Personnel should have a clear understanding of these
instructions and should be aware of general safety
precautions. Improper installation can result in electric
shock, possible injury due to coming in contact with
moving parts, as well as other potential hazards.
Other considerations may be required if high winds
or seismic activity are present. If more information
is needed, contact a licensed professional engineer
before moving forward.
• Follow all local electrical and safety codes, as well
as the National Electrical Code (NEC), the National
Fire Protection Agency (NFPA), where applicable.
Follow the Canadian Electric Code (CEC) in
Canada.
• The rotation of the fan wheel is critical. It must
be free to rotate without striking or rubbing any
stationary objects.
• Fan motor must be securely and adequately
grounded.

Fire System
Operation
This equipment is furnished with factory pre-piped
fire suppression nozzles and fusible link detector
brackets. The brand of the system was specified at
time of order (Amerex or Ansul). Factory installation
is according to the Fire System manufacturers
recommendations. Field connection, tanks, controls,
fusible link detectors, and commissioning is provided
and installed, on site, by others. The AHJ may require
additional protection.
NOTE
Prior to starting the fan, remove fan tie down straps.
These are used only to prevent shipping damage.
After removing the tie down straps, the fan should
float freely on the spring isolators. Confirm that the
installation is completed as shown in the Installation
section.
Start-Up
Filter Installation (See Figure #2 on page 7)
Turn the unit on momentarily and then turn off.
Remove fan drive access cover and verify proper fan
wheel rotation. If rotation is backwards, reverse the
fan motor electrical input leads. After verifying proper
fan wheel rotation, the unit is ready for operation.
All 4 stages of filters are shipped on a separate
skid in the original factory packaging. Do not
remove packaging or install filters until just prior to
commissioning the unit.
Care must be taken to ensure filters are installed in
the proper sequence and proper direction of airflow
for filter stages 1, 2 & 3 (stage 4 carbon panels are not
subject to airflow direction).
Filter Status Indicator
As filter stages 1, 2 and 3 load with smoke and grease
particles, resistance to airflow increases and the
exhaust air volume decreases. Pressure switches
continuously read the resistance across each filter
stage. Each pressure switch is factory preset to
transmit an alarm signal when that stage of filter has
reached its terminal resistance and needs replacing
with new filters. This terminal resistance setting is
based on the filter manufacturers rating. The alarm
signal lights an LED located on the face panel of the
remote Filter Status Indicator Enclosure.
Open the access doors. Remove the filter
compression plates at stages 1, 2, 3 & 4. Install
filters and replace all 4 filter compression plates.
Compression plates must be in place to ensure proper
filter sealing integrity. Close and latch access doors.
NOTE
Access doors are on lift off hinges and can be easily
removed for more convenient filter servicing.
IMPORTANT

Description
Replace filters immediately after the Filter Status
Indicator light comes on. Failure to do so may
cause a reduced exhaust air volume allowing
smoke to escape into the kitchen, or may cause
filters to rupture, or both. The terminal resistance
for each stage of filters is factory set at the values
shown below. Altering these settings without first
contacting Greenheck Fan Corp. will void the
manufacturers warranty and void the UL 710 listing.

Phone: 919-718-5818
9. Proper filter disposal is important to the
environment. Refer to local landfill codes.
Carbon Panel Replacement
Unlike particulate filters, technology has yet to
develop a cost-friendly method of determining when
the carbon panels need replacing. So, the industry
standard is the human sniff test. As the carbon begins
to lose its effectiveness, odor breakthrough gradually
occurs and odor concentration increases. Based on a
variety of cooking applications/installations, life of the
carbon panels can range from a few months to one
year. Replace carbon panels when odor breakthrough
is first noticed. When replacing carbon panels,
follow the instructions in the Operation section, Filter
Replacement, Steps 2-10. There is no particular
direction of airflow for carbon panels.
