Do you have the appropriate mount to accommodate your roof pitch? If you are uncertain or
feel you have the incorrect mount for your building structure, please contact Customer Service at
1-877-BIG-FANS.
Did a structural engineer approve the mounting structure? See page 9 for Big Ass Fans-approved
mounting structures.
Are you familiar with the function and use of the safety cable? See page 19 for information on
properly securing the safety cable.

Will the fan be installed so that the airfoils have at least 2 ft (0.61 m) of clearance from
obstructions?
Will the fan be installed so that it is not subjected to high winds such as from an HVAC system
or near a large garage door? If the fan is mounted at the same level or higher than a diffuser, the
winglets must be at a distance that is at least 1x the measure of the fan’s diameter. If the fan is mounted
at the same height or below a diffuser, the winglets must be at a distance that is at least 2x the measure
of the fan’s diameter.
Will the distance between multiple fans be at least 2.5x the fans’ diameter when measured from
the centers of the fans.
If installing the fan on an I-beam, ensure the upper yoke is the correct size. See page 12 for more
information on installing the fan to an I-beam.
If you ordered multiple fans, did you keep the parts for each fan together? It is critical that the airfoils
be properly matched with the motor unit.
Do you have the correct power circuit for the fan controller? See pages 2–3 for information
concerning power requirements for the fan controller.

indication of safe voltage levels.
CAUTION: Exercise caution and common sense when powering the fan. Do not connect the fan to a damaged or hazardous power
source. Do not attempt to resolve electrical malfunctions or failures on your own. Contact Big Ass Fans at 1-877-BIG-FANS if you
have any questions regarding the electrical installation of this fan.
CAUTION: When service or replacement of a component in the fan requires the removal or disconnection of a safety device, the
safety device is to be reinstalled or remounted as previously installed.

WARNING: The fan controllers contain high voltage capacitors that take time to discharge after removal of mains supply.
Before working on the fan controller, ensure isolation of mains supply from line inputs at the fan controller’s disconnect if
installed (L1, L2/N, L3). Wait three (3) minutes for capacitors to discharge to safe voltage levels. Failure to do so may result in
personal injury or death. Note: Darkened display LEDs are not an indication of safe voltage levels.

Daisy Chaining
The Powerfoil®X2.0 fan is preprogrammed to operate in Master/Slave or Daisy Chain mode. Starting, stopping, and speed control
signals are transmitted by the master fan controller to remaining slaved fans via 0–10 VDC analog outputs. The wall controller for the
slaved fans remains active as a display so that the operator can still view any fault messages, toggle between output frequency and fan
RPM displays, or operate the fan via the LOCAL/REM button.
LOCAL
REM
The LOCAL/REM button toggles the fan’s command sources between the wall controller (LOC LED illuminated) and
external sources (REM LED illuminated). In a daisy chained installation, the master fan controller will operate via the wall
controller (local mode), and the Slaved fan controller(s) will operate via the 0–10 VDC command reference provided by the
master fan controller (REM mode). Note: To access the LOCAL/REM button, the controller cover must be removed.

The Powerfoil® X2.0 fan is also programmed to be controlled by an Energy Management System or Building Automation System.
Starting, stopping, and speed control duties are handled by the distributed I/O (2 N.O. contacts, 1 analog) provided by the installer. The
wall controller remains active as a display so that fault messages can still be viewed, and toggling between output frequency and fan
RPM displays can still be performed. This mode of operation is commonly referred to as “external control.”
*For distributed I/O to be active, the REM indicator light must be illuminated by pressing the LOCAL/REM button as shown

About I/O Mode Selection
Big Ass Fans factory defaults for analog and digital inputs are ACI (4-20 mA) and NPN (inputs pulled down to DC Common). If required,
these may be switched to AVI (0-10 VDC as shown above) and PNP (inputs pulled up to 24 VDC) via the dip switches shown above. If

When a contact closure is seen across Digital Input #4 (MI4) and DC Common (DCM), the fan is pre-programmed to issue a base-block
code and initiate fan shutdown. This is essentially turning off the fan controller’s output terminals, while leaving the fan controller in Run
mode.
Auxiliary contacts can be associated with basic timers and thermostats, as well as equipment such as overhead cranes, in order to
initiate fan shutdown simultaneously with equipment shutdown when contact closure is seen.

Controller Operation
Upon initial power-up of the fan, the controller display appears as shown on the right.
The controller is programmed to show the fan’s current running speed in RPM on the
LED display. The display also indicates if the fan is stopped (STOP), set to run forward
(FWD), or is set to respond to a remote control source (REM) such as an Energy
Management System or Building Automation System.
Other main LED display modes include Motor Current, Memory Status, Motor Command
Frequency, and Motor Actual Frequency. Useful indicators of fan status on the controller
are RUN/STOP, JOG, FWD/REV direction, and External or Local Control.
To operate the fan from the controller, press the LOCAL/REM button to make sure
that the LOC indicator is illuminated. The RUN, STOP, and FWD/REV buttons are
functional only when the LOC indicator is illuminated. Note: To access the LOCAL/REM
button on the controller, the controller cover must be removed.

Operating the Fan
Big Ass Fans are the highest quality, most meticulously engineered HVLS fans on the planet, moving a lot of air with their size, not
speed. Moving at a low speed means less energy used for operation, translating into more energy savings year-round. Follow the
SURFHGXUHVEHORZWRHQVXUHWKHPRVWHI¿FLHQWRSHUDWLRQRI\RXU%LJAss Fan.
To ensure proper fan rotation:
1. Turn on the fan.
2. Verify that the fan is rotating in the counterclockwise direction (when viewed from below).
3. If the fan is not rotating counterclockwise, reverse the direction of rotation. See page 39 for instructions on changing the direction of

Stand directly below the tips of the airfoils with hand outstretched. If you feel a draft, slightly decrease the fan speed by 0.5 Hz (1–2%).
Repeat until the draft is no longer noticeable.
Cooling season
The cooling effect created by the breeze from the Powerfoil X 2.0 fan keeps occupants comfortable with the thermostat at a higher
setting. During the cooling season, every degree higher that the thermostat is reset reduces the energy consumed by the air conditioner
by 1.5–2%. To minimize energy usage during the cooling season, operate the fan only when building occupants are present.
