Always pay particular attention to cords at plugs and/or convenience receptacles, and at the point where they exit from the product. 2. Do not defeat the inherent design features of the polarized plug. Non-polarized line cord adapters will defeat the safety provided by the polarized AC plug. If the plug should fail to t, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug. If you use this product in a country which only has two slotted receptacles in the house, you must use a three-pin adapter plug to earth ground which is the E (earth pin) of the power cord connected to this product. 3. Do not overload wall outlets, extension or integral convenience receptacles, as this could result in a risk of re or shock. Operating Voltage The Fan System is factory-set for 110V, 120V or 230V AC operation at either 50 or 60 Hz, according to the country for which the unit was manufactured (230V in European Union countries, in compliance with CE regulations).

Trigger In/Out 12VDC Mode With the mode switch in the 12V position, and the in input being used, the RKF-100 will move into its auto mode whenever a 6V to 15V input signal is supplied and the prescribed initial temperature has been reached. Should you want to use one or more RKF-100 s within the same location you can synchronize the units by using the sync switch. For this situation you should use the out jack from one unit (which then becomes the master) and go into the in jack for the second unit (which then becomes the slave). The two units will now be in sync and will start to work in unison once the prescribed initial temperature of the master unit has been reached. Note that in this type of multi-unit installation all of the internal temperature sensors of the slave units are defeated. Fan Auto-On Temperature This switch enables you to pre-select one of two temperature settings for activating the RKF-100. The low setting is 95 degrees Fahrenheit (35 degree Celsius) and the high setting is 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius). This important feature ensures that the fans only work above the selected ambient temperature. If you want to exhaust the hot air to the outside you will need to remove the two plugs and attach exible tubing (not included with the unit). Please see page 4 for a fuller description of this feature. Fill out and send in the owners registration card packed with the RKF-100. Also be sure to keep the original sales receipt. It is your best record of the date of purchase, which you will need in the event warranty service is ever required. Care of the Product Clean the product by dusting with a dry cloth. Do not permit objects of any kind to be pushed and/or fall into the product through the enclosure openings. General Description The RKF-100 is a multi-directional fan system that uses three 4.75-inch (120 mm) whisper quiet fans, the speeds of which are governed by thermal sensing circuitry. The RKF-100 is designed to be used in three different formats -intake/blow/exhaust air. The required mode can be con gured locally according to the cooling requirements of your system. The RKF-100 has many other features and functions that are all described in the following pages. Front Panel Description The (removable) rack mountable front panel houses a switch for controlling the on/off and auto functions. A blue LED indicates when the units fans are actually working. Behind the grille front is a removable air- lter pad. It is important to note that the only time the switch needs to be in the on position is during an initial test when the fans will be operating at their maximum speed. Once the RKF-100 has completed its test, it is recommended that the switch be placed in its auto position. In this mode neither the fans nor the LED will operate until the selected ambient temperature is reached. Rear Panel Description The following description identi es each of the main controls /connections and follows the rear panel from left to right. Temperature Sensor This input enables you to connect the (supplied) pigtail sensing cord. The magnetized head should be placed on the hot spot of your installation whereupon it will measure the ambient temperature, which in turn will govern the speed of the three fans. Please note that there is also an in-built sensing device located on the underside of the chassis that is by-passed if the pigtail sensor is used. If the pigtail sensor is not used, then the in-built sensor will automatically activate once the selected minimum temperature has been reached. 3 English
