The FDS 216 set ensures the safe operation of exhaust air systems by monitoring the window position and transmitting the information wirelessly to the built-in receiver. The transmitter on the window reliably detects whether the window is tilted or open. Only when the window is open can fresh air flow in, preventing dangerous negative pressure that could draw toxic carbon monoxide from combustion chambers into the room.

The adapter plug receiver is simply placed between the wall outlet and the extractor hood's power plug. As soon as the window is opened, it automatically releases the power supply to the fan. A power plug lock prevents accidental reconnection—ideal for retrofitting in kitchens with fireplaces or other open fireplaces.

Operation with second window (OR operation):
You have the option of using a second window with an additional FDS 098 wireless magnetic switch (item: 300098). At least one window must be open for the exhaust system to operate. Using the wireless receiver's serial number, Elektrotechnik-Schabus can program another wireless switch for the set.
The serial number can be found on the type plate of the radio receiver and the transmitter under the barcode field

Important information for connection and operation

* Obstacles, especially metal, can significantly reduce the range compared to open space. The actual range always depends on the specific installation. Frequent interruptions during operation, even with a fresh battery, are often due to a poor radio link. The distance between transmitter and receiver is largely irrelevant. Keep the receiver at least 20 cm away from the nearest metal surface. Thick glass plates, ceramic hobs, kitchen cabinets with pots and pans, as well as walls and ceilings, also shield radio waves well and interfere with reliable operation. To ensure a good connection, align the receiver during installation so that its LED is pointing towards the transmitter.

🔧 Technology & function

How does the FDS 216 SET work exactly? The FDS 216 set ensures that your exhaust system (e.g. tumble dryer) is only supplied with power when a window is open. A battery-operated radio transmitter detects the window position and transmits the signal to the plug-in receiver, which releases power for the exhaust air device.

The FDS 216 set completely shuts off the power supply, d.hLighting or other functions of your exhaust system will also be switched off.

What happens if the window is closed while the exhaust system is running? The receiver then automatically interrupts the power supply - the exhaust system switches off. This protects against dangerous negative pressure and prevents the backflow of toxic gases.

Can the system also be used with multiple windows? Yes. For an OR link (at least one of two windows open), an additional transmitter can be integrated, which must be coded appropriately by Elektrotechnik-Schabus.

How long is the radio range between the transmitter and receiver? In the open field the range is up to 20m. Indoors it can be reduced by walls, ceilings or other sources of interference.

How long does the battery in the transmitter last? The included brand-name button cell (CR2032) battery lasts up to 2 years under normal operating conditions, depending on the frequency of use. D.hIf the window is tilted, the transmitter constantly sends signals and the battery discharges, even if the exhaust system is not used.z.B(Ventilation in summer)

Is there a radio interference or empty battery displayed? Yes. The transmitter signals a weak battery with a flashing red LED. If there is no radio signal, the receiver switches off automatically so that the exhaust system no longer works - for safety reasons.

Is the radio operation interference-free and does not require approval? Yes. The system operates on a legally approved frequency in the ISM band and does not require a license for private and commercial use.

🛠️ installation & compatibility

Does the FDS 216 SET fit any exhaust system? Yes – it is suitable for all devices that are powered by a mains plug. The exhaust system is simply connected to the socket via the adapter plug (receiver).

Can I hide the adapter plug behind furniture or built-in cupboards? Yes, as long as no solid metal housings or shields hinder the radio connection. Make sure there is a good radio connection to the transmitter.

How is the transmitter attached to the window? The transmitter and magnet are mounted directly on the window frame and sash using the included screws. The included spacer plates help with height adjustment. The distance between the transmitter and the magnet should be a maximum of 5mm (optimal: 1-2mm).

Can I install the system myself or do I need an electrician? The transmitter is easy to assemble yourself. The receiver is plugged into the socket without any electrical installation – no electrician required.

Is the FDS 216 compatible with vented dryers or fireplaces? The FDS 216 SET is designed for exhaust systems. Special systems such as the are available for use with fireplaces or stoves Comfort packages from Elektrotechnik-Schabus necessary.

What is the difference between built-in and plug-in receivers? The Built-in receiver It is permanently integrated into the power supply of the extractor hood.z.B. FDS 100) The Intermediate receiver becomes simply plugged between the socket and the hood – completely without cabling. (z.B. FDS 200)

🔋 How do I change the battery in the window contact transmitter?

  1. Deckel entfernen:
    Drücken Sie den Deckel rechts und links auf Höhe der LED leicht zusammen und ziehen Sie ihn nach oben ab.
  2. Alte Batterie entfernen:
    Legen Sie den Sender so, dass sich die Antenne (schwarzes Kabel) rechts unten befindet. Führen Sie den Schraubendreher senkrecht in den Hohlraum zwischen Batterie und Halter und hebeln Sie vorsichtig nach oben.
  3. Neue Batterie einsetzen:
    Einfach von oben in den Halter drücken. ➤ Auch hier: CR2032, Polung beachten!

❗ Tip: Receiver clicks – exhaust hood doesn’t respond?

If the transmitter has a new battery (green LED lights up), but the hood still doesn't respond and the receiver just "clicks":

👉 Briefly switch the extractor hood fuse off and on again. This often acts like a reset – similar to a computer.

❗ After changing the battery, the exhaust hood no longer works – what should I do?

  • Polung prüfen:
    Ist die Knopfzelle richtig herum (Schrift nach oben) eingelegt?
  • Neu synchronisieren:
    Fenster schließen → warten → öffnen → warten → schließen → erneut öffnen.
    So erkennen sich Sender und Empfänger wieder – und das System funktioniert wie gewohnt.

➕ Extensions & Variants

How can I monitor two windows? (OR link) An additional transmitter is sufficient for an OR link (FDS 098 article 300098). At least one of the two windows must be open for the exhaust system to operate. The additional transmitter must be coded to the same radio frequency when ordering from Elektrotechnik-Schabus, which is why we need the serial number of the FDS 200 SET when ordering.

How does the expansion with additional transmitter FDS 098 (article 300098) work? The additional transmitter is mounted on the window like the first one and is set to the same coding directly by Elektrotechnik-Schabus, which is possible using the serial number of the main set. Both transmitters work in parallel.

🧾 Legal & Security

Why is exhaust air control required by law for exhaust air systems? If exhaust air systems are operated in rooms with fireplaces, negative pressure can arise - this could cause toxic exhaust gases (e.g. carbon monoxide) to flow back. Exhaust air control prevents this and is mandatory in these cases. see Fireplace Ordinance (§4 Abs. 2 FeuVo) 

Does the FDS 216 SET meet the regulations for exhaust systems with fireplaces? Yes. The FDS 216 SET is TÜV tested (without DIBt certification)

🛒 purchase & service

Which components are included in the FDS 216 SET? A battery-operated window transmitter (window contact switch, magnetic switch), an adapter plug receiver as well as mounting material and instructions.

Are there spare parts (e.g. transmitter, battery, receiver)? Yes. Transmitter (FDS 098 item 300098), batteries (CR2032) (item 200764) and other accessories are available individually. The serial number of your main set is required for replacement transmitters.

How long is the guarantee? You receive a 2-year guarantee on the product in accordance with legal regulations.
