10
X = 12" minimum, 24" suggested for ease of maintenance.
* 1" maximum for electric dryers.
** 18" minimum for steam dryers.
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.
D. FRESH AIR SUPPLY
The SUPER AD-50 air supply (make-up air) must be given careful consideration to assure proper performance
of each dryer. An unrestricted source of air is necessary for each dryer. As a general rule, an unrestricted air
entrance from the outdoors (atmosphere) of a minimum of 1-1/2 square feet is required for each dryer. If
registers or louvers are installed over the openings, then the area must be increased. It is not necessary to have
a separate make-up air openings for each dryer. Common make-up air openings are acceptable. However, they
must be set up in such a manner that the make-up air is distributed equally to the dryers.
NOTE: Allowances must be made for opening the control door.
