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

If a claim is made under guarantee, the parts concerned must be presented to the manufacturer for

Improper use
