Remove any accumulations of dirt, water, ice or snow 
and wipe dry before moving to indoor storage. To avoid 
“sweating” of metal parts allow cold parts to reach room 
temperature. To dry parts and packages use a portable 
electric heater to get rid of any moisture build up. Leave 
coverings loose to permit air circulation and to allow for 
periodic inspection.
The unit should be stored at least 3½ in. (89 mm) off the 
floor on wooden blocks covered with moisture proof 
paper or polyethylene sheathing. Aisles between parts 
and along all walls should be provided to permit air 
circulation and space for inspection.
OUTDOOR
Fans designed for outdoor applications may be stored 
outdoors, if absolutely necessary. Roads or aisles for 
portable cranes and hauling equipment are needed.
The fan should be placed on a level surface to prevent 
water from leaking into the fan. The fan should be 
elevated on an adequate number of wooden blocks so 
that it is above water and snow levels and has enough 
blocking to prevent it from settling into soft ground. 
Locate parts far enough apart to permit air circulation, 
sunlight, and space for periodic inspection. To minimize 
water accumulation, place all fan parts on blocking 
supports so that rain water will run off. 
Do not cover parts with plastic film or tarps as these 
cause condensation of moisture from the air passing 
through heating and cooling cycles.
Fan wheels should be blocked to prevent spinning 
caused by strong winds.
Inspection and Maintenance during 
Storage
While in storage, inspect fans once per month. Keep a 
record of inspection and maintenance performed; see 
backcover.
If moisture or dirt accumulations are found on parts, 
the source should be located and eliminated. At each 
inspection, rotate the wheel by hand ten to fifteen 
revolutions to distribute lubricant on motor and 
bearings. If paint deterioration begins, consideration 
should be given to touch-up or repainting. Fans with 
special coatings may require special techniques for 
touch-up or repair.
Machined parts coated with rust preventive coating 
should be restored to good condition promptly if signs 
of rust occur. Immediately remove the original rust 
preventive coating with petroleum solvent and clean 
with lint-free cloths. Polish any remaining rust from 
surface with crocus cloth or fine emery paper and oil. 
Do not destroy the continuity of the surfaces. Wipe 
clean thoroughly with Tectyl® 506 (Ashland Inc.) or 
the equivalent. For hard to reach internal surfaces or 
for occasional use, consider using Tectyl® 511M Rust 
Preventive or WD-40® or the equivalent.
Receiving
Greenheck model Vektor-H and Vektor-HS fans are 
thoroughly inspected, test run at the factory, and 
shipped on a skid or packaged to minimize damage 
during shipment. The transportation carrier has the 
responsibility of delivering all items in their original 
condition as received from Greenheck. The individual 
receiving the equipment is responsible for inspecting the 
unit for obvious or hidden damage and recording any 
damage on the bill of lading before acceptance of the 
equipment. All claims (if necessary) shall be filed with 
the final carrier.
Unpacking
Verify that all required parts and the correct quantity 
of each item have been received, including accessory 
kit containing gasketing, etc. If any items are missing, 
report shortages to your local representative to arrange 
for obtaining missing parts. Sometimes it is not 
possible that all items for the unit be shipped together 
due to availability of transportation and truck space. 
Confirmation of shipment(s) must be limited to only 
items on the bill of lading.
Handling
The Vektor-H and Vektor-HS laboratory exhaust system 
is shipped in subassembly sections for easy rigging 
and installation. Depending on the fan size, the sections 
can include: Blower Assembly, Stack Extension, and 
Discharge Nozzle.
The Vektor-H and Vektor-HS are designed to be self-
supporting and standing (without the use of guy wires) 
when assembled per the instructions provided within 
this manual. All subassembly sections have lifting lugs 
as shown.
Storage
Fans are protected against damage during shipment. If 
the unit cannot be installed and operated immediately, 
precautions need to be taken to prevent deterioration of 
the unit during storage. The user assumes responsibility 
of the fan and accessories while in storage. The 
manufacturer will not be responsible for damage during 
storage. These suggestions are provided solely as a 
convenience to the user.
INDOOR
The ideal environment for the storage of fans and 
accessories is indoors, above grade, in a low humidity 
atmosphere which is sealed to prevent the entry of 
blowing dust, rain, or snow. Temperatures should 
be evenly maintained between 30° and 110°F. (-1°C 
and 43°C
). Wide temperature swings may cause 
condensation and “sweating” of metal parts. All 
accessories must be stored indoors in a clean, dry 
atmosphere.
