2Description of the product
2.1 Purpose of the product
21ENERGY GmbH provides a new type of fan heater on the market, which is essentially operated with the waste heat
of information technology devices, in particular with the waste heat of Bitcoin miners. For this purpose, used Bitcoin
miners that have already been introduced into the EEA are used, which are mounted in a specially created metal
housing. The supply of electrical energy and the connection of the Bitcoin miners to a local WLAN network is
achieved by using commercially available components such as WLAN access points, distribution sockets and desktop
routers.
2.2 Product differentiation
For all commercially available components, such as Bitcoin Miners, as well as the components mentioned in the brief
description, 21ENERGY GmbH acts as a distributor. 21ENERGY GmbH acts as manufacturer and distributor for the
metal housing, which essentially consists of sheet metal parts that are screwed together. The production of the
sheet metal parts is carried out by an external supplier who manufactures them according to the plans of 21ENERGY
GmbH. The assembly of the sheet metal parts is carried out by 21ENERGY GmbH.
The Bitcoin Miners used are delivered with the corresponding power supply unit and can only be used with this by
connecting a 230 V mains supply using a C14 "cold appliance cable". The Bitcoin Miner plus power supply unit
comply with the European standard EN 60950-1 with the last adaptation date 2013 to the Low Voltage Directive
2014/35/EU as well as relevant standards to the Directive on Electromagnetic Compatibility 2914/30/EU. At the time
of writing, the harmonised standard EN 60590-1 is no longer valid and has been replaced by EN 23 62368-1.
However, at the time of placing the Bitcoin Miner plus power supply units on the market, EN 60950-1 was still valid
and the conformity of the devices concerned with the relevant EU directives is therefore still given. It should be
noted here, however, that comparable products placed on the market after 1 May 2016 must comply with the EN
62368-1 standard in its currently valid version.
Peripheral devices such as WLAN repeaters, LAN-SWITCH or power distributors are purchased as new products. It
can be assumed that these commercially available standard products have valid EC declarations at the time of
purchase by 21ENERGY GmbH. A random sample examination of the desktop router used has shown that the
standards are valid with regard to the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU as well as the EMC Directive 2014/30/EU.

Bedienungsanleitung Bitcoin Heater S9x Version 1.0 / 01.2023 10
2.3 Modification
Bitcoin miners and their power supply units, which are distributed by 21ENERGY GmbH, are, as mentioned above,
used devices. These are cleaned by 21ENERGY GmbH and fitted with new fans. The exchange of the fans is possible
according to the operating instructions of the Bitcoin Miner manufacturer. The exchange of the fans on the Bitcoin
Miners themselves is done by loosening four screws per fan and disconnecting the connection cable. The installation
of new fans is done in reverse order. Due to the fan replacement, neither the miners nor the power supply units
show an increase in performance. It can therefore be assumed that the original EC Declaration of Conformity does
not need to be adjusted and that 21ENERGY GmbH does not automatically become the distributor of this device as a
result of these activities.
