The safety of fans is assured by Munters in compliance with the safety requirements indicated by the CE label.
Safe functioning is assured only when the installation procedures and the instructions for use have been carefully
followed.The following points must be stressed:
• proper transport procedure must be followed;
• do not remove the safety meshes;
• all the fans installed at a height lower than 2.7 m from ground level must be equipped by extra safety
kits, which can be ordered and should be mounted on the fan side;
• inform the maintenance operator on maintenance procedure; create an efficient ground wiring; adopt
disconnecting and safety automatic devices against overloadings and short circuits.
Safety aspects 2.
The fan must only be used if it is in perfect operating condition, by personnel, aged
more than 14 years who are perfectly aware of the safety measures and possible
hazards, and in strict compliance with the instructions given in this manual.
WARNING
Do not operate the fan without having it firmly fixed to the structure or without
complying with the safety regulations for the electrical connection.
Do not install the fan in places where there might be explosion hazards as
described by C.E.I.64-2 rules and do not handle any material which might
produce explosive powders, as stressed in the same rules.
If used as an air extractor, the emission of polluting gases into the atmosphere
must be within the limits determined by local authorities.
Fans must be installed at a safe height to leave the way free for the transit of
transport and operators.

• six blades propeller in stainless steel 304 on EDX18 and EDX26 models;
• six blades propeller in stainless steel 430 (except EDC18) or galvanised or precoated on EDC18 and
EDC24;
• blades fixed with aeronautical rivets (except EDC18 blades fixed with M6 screws class 8.8 or higher);
• asynchronous three-phases electric motor (single-phase on request), 50/60Hz, IP55 protection class,

Air circulators are designed to create air circulation inside farms and greenhouses and meant to mantain both the
environment temperature and humidity constant and uniform.
Working ambient temperature limits are -25°C to +50°C. Maximum altitude is 1000 m above sea level. If a fan
is required to operate at a higher altitude, the loss in mass flow (heat removing capacity) due to lower air density
should be taken into consideration.
Operating conditions 4.
© Munters AB, 2013 9
Circulators are delivered fully assembled. The fan is supplied without a control box; the installer shall provide a
suitable control box in compliance with the requirements specified by the EN 60439-1 standard.
Circulators are designed and built for hanging installation and have therefore eyebolts to be hung.
fig.1
Electrical connection
Fans are supplied with all the internal electrical connections set, with the exception of the connection to the power
line through a thermo-magnetic switch adapted to the power of the motor.
Installation 5.
Always check up if cable and chain dimensions are suitable to hold up the fan’s
weight and if they have the proper length to distribute the strain uniformly (fig.1).
WARNING
The electrical cable must be tense inside the body to avoid any interference with
the propeller.

• three-phases, 400V, 50/60Hz.
5.1 Use
Risks connected to moving parts
All the moving parts are protected by a case or placed inside the body. Even in case of breakings (fan, blades,...)
there are no risks of injury for people.
Switching on and switching off
Switching on and switching off operations pass through not supplied equipments.
Operating conditions
Looking at the airflow rectifier, the propeller should turn clockwise (fig.3).
