F. FRESH AIR SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
When the dryer is operating, it draws in room air, heats this air through the tumbler (basket), and exhausts it out of the building. Therefore, the room air must be continually replenished from the outdoors. If makeup air is inadequate, drying time and efficiency will be adversely affected, and safety will be compromised. Premature component failure may result.
Air supply
To compensate for the use of registers or louvres used over the openings, the makeup air area must be increased by approximately
Allowances must be made for remote or constricting passageways or where dryers are located at excessive altitude or predominantly low pressure areas.
IMPORTANT: Makeup air must be provided from a source free of dry cleaning solvent fumes. Makeup air that is contaminated by dry cleaning solvent fumes will result in irreparable damage to the motors and other dryer components.
NOTE: Component failure due to dry cleaning solvent fumes will VOID THE WARRANTY.
