Installation reference (Example for RAV-SM801BT model)

The air supply ducting work is classified in two ways, one is branched by the round ducts, and the other is branched by the square ducts. (Be sure to divide the air supply duct into three or more branches.)

<Round duct>

In case of the round duct, use the thermal insulator of thickness 25mm or more and inner diameter 150mm or more to the duct board.

(If the inner diameter is not enough, resistance increase, as the result, air does not flow smoothly and loss of the static pressure increases.) For the thermal insulator, use high-density glass wool of 24kg/m3 or equivalent.

<Square duct> (Reference for square duct)

When using the square duct, change the type of the air supply flange from round type to square flange at the local site.

In case of the square duct, apply the thermal insulator of thickness 25mm or more to the duct board. For the thermal insulator, use high-density glass wool of

25mm or more

Density of thermal insulator (glass wool) is 24 kg/m³ or equivalent.

CAUTION

Incomplete thermal insulation of the supply air flange and sealing may cause dew drops.
