American Dryer Corp Super AD-30 manual Dryer Enclosure Requirements

C. DRYER ENCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS

Bulkheads and partitions should be made of noncombustible materials and must be located a minimum of 12- inches (18-inches or more is recommended for ease of installation, maintenance, and service) above the dryer outer top, except along the front of the dryer which may be partially closed in if desired. The clearance between the bulkhead header and the dryer must be a minimum of 4-inches and must not extend more than 4-inches to the rear of the front. The bulkhead facing must not be closed in all the way to the top of the dryer. A 1-inch clearance is required.

NOTE: Allowances must be made for opening the control door.

Dryers may be positioned side wall to side wall. However, a 1/16" minimum allowance must be made for opening and closing of the control door and the lint door. It is suggested that the dryer be positioned about two (2) feet away from the nearest obstruction for ease of installation, maintenance, and service (to be measured from the back guard.) (Refer to the illustration on page 11 for details.)

NOTE: Air considerations are important for proper and efficient operation.
