Drainage
A floor drain or sewage port is needed near the EFA to facilitate period-
ically draining the water tank. It is suggested that a permanent drain-
age hose go into the drain. The HM-5940 EFA machine has two water
outlet connections. The upper connection has a ¾ inch garden hose
fitting which is connected to the pipe coming from the sump pump in the
bottom of the tank. The second outlet is located at the bottom of the low
end of the tank. The lower outlet has a valve with a ¾ inch NPT female
thread.
Power
The Humboldt HM-5940 EFA machine requires 230 volt, 3-phase, 60 Hz,
wall-mounted service. A 5 wire power cord (3 phase, neutral, ground) is
supplied with the machine.
Ceiling/Door Height
If the EFA is to be placed in a room, check the door height as well as the
ceiling height to be greater than the height of EFA. A minimum height of
2.5 m (≥8 feet) is required with the wheels fully retracted.
Weight
The Humboldt HM-5940 EFA weighs approximately 5.8kN (1300 lbs).
One fully loaded EFA weighs at least 13.3kN (3000 lbs). There is also a
slight dynamic load factor when the pump is working. Be sure to check
the floor load grade before moving in the EFA into position.
Ventilation
The room for the EFA should be well ventilated.
Illumination
The room for the EFA should be well illuminated.
