-After removing the product from its packaging, verify its conditions. Do not leave the packaging within
reach of children or people with disabilities.
-The device should not be used as an activator for water heaters, stoves, etc., nor should it discharge
into hot air/fume vent ducts deriving from any type of combustion unit or tumble dryer.
-If the environment in which the product is installed also houses a fuel-operating device (water heater,
methane stove etc.) that is not a “sealed chamber” type, it is essential to ensure adequate air intake, to
ensure good combustion and proper equipment operation.
-If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid creating a hazard.
-The electrical system to which the device is connected must comply with local regulations.
-Before connecting the product to the power supply or the power outlet, ensure that:
•the data plate (voltage and frequency) corresponds to those of the electrical mains.
•the electrical power supply/socket is adequate for maximum device power.
-An omni polar switch should be incorporated in the fixed wiring, in accordance with the wiring rules, to
provide a full disconnection under overvoltage category III conditions (contact opening distance equal
to or greater than 3mm).
-Ensure adequate air infiltration into the room in compliance with existing regulations in order to ensure
proper device operation.
-Install the product so that the impeller is not accessible from the air outlet side as verified by contact
with the Test (test probe “B” of the norm EN61032) in compliance with the current safety regulations.
1.3. Use
-The device should not be used for applications other than those specified in this manual.
-This appliance can be used by children aged 8 years old and above and persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
Children shall not play with the appliance.
-If any abnormalities in operation are detected, disconnect the device from the mains supply and contact
a qualified technician immediately. Use original spare parts only for repairs.
-
-Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
-Do not touch the appliance with wet or damp hands/feet.
-The device is designed to intake clean air only, i.e. without grease, soot, chemical or corrosive agents, or
flammable or explosive mixtures.
-Do not use the product in the presence of inflammable vapors, such as alcohol, insecticides, gasoline,
etc.
-Do not obstruct ducts or grilles to ensure optimum air passage.
-Do not immerse the device or its parts in water or other liquids.
-Operating temperature: 0°C up to +50°C.
1.4. Maintenance
-Even if the mains supply to the unit has been disconnected there remains a risk of injury due to rotating
parts that have not come to a complete standstill.
-Turn off the main switch whenever a malfunction is detected or when cleaning.
-Use original spare parts only for repairs.

2. PRODUCT INFORMATION
2.1. General information
Airstream Xe+ is an axial fan designed to ensure air extraction in small/medium-sized rooms such
as bathrooms, toilets, and kitchens.
The unit can be installed on walls, ceilings or windows and is suitable for air discharge directly to
the outside or using a short extract duct (less than 1.5m).
2.2. Technical specification
•Material: high quality, impact, and UV-resistant ABS. Colour RAL 9010.
•Design front cover removable for cleaning without the use of tools.
•Rear reinforcement ring to prevent spigot deformation during installation.
•High efficiency aerodynamic fan with “winglet” blades to optimize acoustics and efficiency.
•Single phase induction motor with integrated thermal protection.
•Motor mounted on high quality sleeve bearings.
•The fan is double insulated: no earth connection is required.
•Suitable for continuous or intermittent operation.
•IPX4 degree of protection.
•Power supply 220V to 240V~ 50/60Hz.
2.3. Versions
STANDARD
The fan is operated using a separate ON/OFF switch or via a light switch (fig. 13A).
WITH TIMER (over-run)
The fan is provided with a timer circuit which is adjustable within a range from 1 minute to 25
minutes via a dedicated trimmer (fig. 14B).
Operation: the unit should be connected according to the diagram in fig. 13B, after the light is
switched on, the fan activates with a delay of max 1.5 seconds. After the light is switched off, the
fan continues to function for a pre-set period.
WITH HUMIDISTAT & TIMER
The fan is equipped with a humidity detector and a timer. The humidity detector operating
threshold is adjustable from 50% to 95% Relative Humidity. The timer is adjustable from aprox.
1 minute to 25 minutes via a corresponding trimmer (fig. 14C).
Turn the humidity detector trimmer completely clockwise and the humidistat function is
deactivated.
Automatic humidistat operation: Connected according to the diagram in fig. 13C. When the
percentage of Relative Humidity exceeds the pre-set threshold, the fan starts up automatically.
When the percentage of Relative Humidity goes below the threshold; the fan continues to
function for a pre-set period of time.

5/14 brookvent.co.uk
Operation with switch connection:+
connected according to the diagram in fig. 13C. After the light is switched on, the fan activates
with a delay of approx. 1.5 seconds. After it is switched off, the fan continues to function for a
pre-set period.
Attention: When the relative humidity level is higher than the pre-set threshold, automatic
operation with a humidistat has priority over manual operation, meaning that the fan cannot be
stopped with a switch.
