2.3 INTENDED PURPOSE AND APPLICATIONS - CONTRAINDICATIONS
For the installation (fan body) on the roof of commercial and industrial vehicles and/or ambulances, appointed for the transport
of persons or goods, with controls to be collocated in a well accessible and visible position at normal conditions.
other types of vehicles are excluded, like also application under non-atmospheric pressure or in presence of dusts, gas other
than air, vapour, fog, aerosol, combustible or non-combustible. It is especially prohibited to operate or introduce the appliance
in potentially explosive atmosphere.
The ventilation supplied by the appliance is only for use in the vehicle cabin or cargo room.
The power supply of the aerator must come directly from the vehicle’s battery circuit, and particularly cannot be
supplied by the feeder connected to the distribution network.
Do not apply any mechanical or electrical changes to the aerator.
Do not use the aerator for other purposes and under other conditions than permitted.
Do not install the aerator in a different manner as under 4.
In addition do the prescribed provisions and regulations according to the Declaration of conformity herewith enclosed,
allowing the a.m. general use, the appliance is meeting the requirements of regulation EN1789, completely or partially, only in
case they can be applied directly to the same.

Regarding this specific application, the a.m. prohibition of working in atmosphere “EX” is referring to anaesthetic gases, in
case emitted inside the vehicle.
3. TRANSPORT, HANDLING, STORAGE
3.1 PACKING AND UNPACKING
The packing in which the aerator is supplied ensures limited protection against shock and fall. In any case the packing must be
handled with caution and must not be exposed to atmospheric agents without appropriate protection.
The bills on the packing indicate the following:
Preventive reading of the handbook is mandatory.
Upper side up.
Fragile.
Protect from humidity.
MASS Mass [kg] of the packed device.
The packing is not appropriate for handling with lifting and transfer equipment, and has therefore to be handled directly.
The user is required to provide for own worker’s safety with regard to dorso-lumbar risks, considering the weight of
the packed appliance of 7 kg, and according to the use of means and procedures indicated by the internal document
for risk management, according to the law and/or local regulations.
