1.2 Users 

Generally, the Airmix™ is not operated directly, but controlled by an operator or user via a control 

box. These users or operators must be at least 18 years old, employed by the company where the 
Airmix™ is installed, and designated by the management as competent and authorised to operate the 

Airmix™. 
All those who do not meet the above definition are unauthorised users, and these unauthorised users 

may create unsafe situations or risks to themselves or others if they use the Airmix™.  

1.3 Use 

The Airmix™ is designed to mix hot humid air from cultivation areas with cool dry air from above the 

screen cloth in a greenhouse. This circulates air horizontally, and improves the climate distribution in a 
greenhouse. 

The Airmix™ is not designed to be used for any other purposes than those described above, such as 
transporting gases other than low-temperature air (-10 °C to + 50 °C).  

1.4 Authorised servicers 

The Airmix™ can be serviced by any maintenance company, but Van der Ende is recommended as this 
company is familiar with every aspect of the device.  
Periodic servicing helps avoid unnecessary costs or failures, and improves reliability. 

1.5 Operating environment 

Install the Airmix™ on the lowest shelf of the truss lattice. Make a hole in the screen cloth, and 

connect this with the opening at the top of the aluminium housing. If the screen cloth is attached to 
the upper tube of the truss lattice, use an extension to overcome the height difference. If the 
greenhouse has a double screen cloth, install a spacer between the two screen cloths, then connect 

this to the Airmix™. 
The fan must be installed out of reach of those without special equipment, and the truss must be 

strong enough to bear the weight of the fan.  
The Airmix™ is not designed for use in any other environment than that described above. The 
Airmix™ is not suitable for use in explosive environments. 

1.6 Guarantee conditions 

The unit is guaranteed for 6 months after first use.  

If a claim is made under guarantee, the parts concerned must be presented to the manufacturer for 
assessment.  
The guarantee is void in the event of any of the following; 

 

Improper use 

 

Repeatedly ignoring the manufacturer’s or supplier’s advice 

 

Unauthorised repair, maintenance or use 

 

Use of inappropriate power supply connections 

 

Use of the machine in an unsuitable environment 

 

Intentional damage or modification of the machine 

1.7 Relevant directives 

The Airmix™ complies with the provisions in the following directives; 

 

Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC 

 

Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC 

 

EMC Directive 2004/108/EC 

The Airmix™ is classified as a Class I device according to the Low Voltage Directive.
