Installation Instructions

STACKING THE WASHER AND DRYER (if desired)

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Read these instructions completely and carefully.

IMPORTANT Save these instructions for local electrical inspector’s use.

IMPORTANT Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

Note to Installer – Be sure to leave these instructions with the Consumer.

Note to Consumer – Keep these instructions for future reference.

Service must be performed by a qualified installer.

Proper installation is the responsibility of the installer.

FOR YOUR SAFETY:

WARNING

Electric Shock Hazard. Disconnect power before installing. Failure to do so could result in serious injury or death.

Potential Personal Injury. More than two people are recommended to lift the dryer into position because of its weight and size. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or death.

Avoid Tipping and Rupture of Utility Services. Dryer must be securely attached to the washer. DO NOT place the washer on top of the dryer. Failure to do so could result in personal injury/ death or property damage.

Mobile Home or Manufactured Home Installation

– Stacking of a gas dryer is not permitted in a mobile home or manufactured home.

MINIMUM CLEARANCE OTHER THAN ALCOVE OR CLOSET INSTALLATION

Minimum clearance to combustible surfaces and for air opening are: 0” both sides, 1” front and 3” rear. Consideration must be given to provide adequate clearance for installation and service.

REQUIREMENTS FOR ALCOVE OR CLOSET INSTALLATION

Your dryer is approved for installation in an alcove or closet, as stated on a label on the dryer back.

The dryer MUST be vented to the outdoors. See the EXHAUSTING THE DRYER section.

Minimum clearance between dryer cabinet and adjacent walls or other surfaces is:

0” either side

3” front and rear

Minimum vertical space from floor to overhead shelves, cabinets, ceilings, etc., is 52”.

Closet doors must be louvered or otherwise ventilated and have at least 60 square inches of open area equally distributed. If the closet contains both a washer and a dryer, doors must contain a minimum of 120 square inches of open area equally distributed.

The closet should be vented to the outdoors to prevent gas pocketing in case of gas in the supply line.

No other fuel-burning appliance shall be installed in the same closet with the dryer (gas models only).

NOTE: WHEN THE EXHAUST DUCT IS LOCATED AT THE REAR OF THE DRYER, MINIMUM CLEARANCE FROM THE WALL IS 5.5 INCHES.

PFMS455, PFMS450, PFDN445, PFDN440, PFDS450 specifications

The GE PFMN440, PFMN445, PFDS455, PFDS450, and PFDN440 are part of GE’s innovative family of radio frequency (RF) power transistors designed for various commercial and industrial applications. These devices are renowned for their efficient performance, providing a blend of high power output and reliability, ideal for telecommunications, broadcasting, and other RF applications.

The GE PFMN440 and PFMN445 are members of the RF transistor family that offer robust performance in high-frequency applications. The PFMN440 is particularly noted for its outstanding linearity and power gain, which makes it suitable for use in RF amplifiers and transmitters. Its compact package and advanced thermal management design enable efficient heat dissipation, which is critical in maintaining performance under load. The PFMN445, with a higher power rating, amplifies these characteristics, supporting greater output levels while maintaining linearity, resulting in clearer signal output.

The PFDS455 and PFDS450, on the other hand, are optimized for industrial applications with features that emphasize durability and efficiency. The PFDS455 stands out for its ability to handle higher voltages and currents, making it an excellent choice for applications that require resilience against overloads. The device's superior thermal stability ensures that it performs consistently across a range of operational environments. The PFDS450 shares many of these attributes but is tailored for applications requiring a slightly lower output, making it versatile for different RF circuit designs.

The PFDN440 is designed with specialized technologies that enhance its functionality in digital and mixed-signal environments. It integrates advanced semiconductor materials which reduce power consumption and improve efficiency without compromising performance. This device is particularly useful in applications that demand high-speed operation and reliability, making it a preferred choice for modern communication systems.

All these transistors utilize state-of-the-art manufacturing processes, including advanced doping techniques and epitaxial growth, which contribute to their excellent electrical characteristics. Their high thermal conductivity, high breakdown voltage, and wide frequency response range make these devices suitable for both commercial and specialized applications.

Overall, GE's PFMN440, PFMN445, PFDS455, PFDS450, and PFDN440 transistors are emblematic of modern RF technology, combining power, efficiency, and reliability to cater to a wide spectrum of RF applications.
