Instead, on models with multiple pipes you may manifold together the supply and discharge pipes to single connections
as long as the resulting installation complies with the product specification for bleed air through the generator. Use
large-radius bends to avoid pressure loss.
Multiple Connections Unnecessary
At times there are misconceptions regarding our sample installation detail available as shown on the previous page, as
it only shows a “general case” side view of an AirMaid generator. Since certain models of AirMaid have multiple pipes,
sometimes an engineer or contractor has unnecessarily drawn/constructed multiple inlet and outlet connections to
the supply air and main exhaust duct:

As long as you have sufficient static pressure to obtain the correct bleed airflow through the generator, then multiple
connections to the supply and exhaust ducts like shown above is unnecessary.
Access Requirements
Routine maintenance and service of all models is performed through the bottom service hatch. An internally-hinged
electronics assembly allows electronic component access from the bottom as well. The entire underside of the genera-
tor must therefore always have free access to the service technician. Nearby ceiling tiles shall be removable to facilitate
service access. Please design your installation with sufficient clearance on all sides (minimum 4") to allow for the easy
removal of the entire AirMaid assembly, if there is insufficient space for on-the-spot repair by the technician.
Always use a safe, approved work platform while servicing the generator.
