Mist Distribution System Connection
The oil mist distribution system will be connected to the oil mist outlet (ANSI 2” 150 lb. RF Flange) located on
top of the cabinet. When threaded flanges are used to connect to the header system, do not use Teflon tape
or conventional pipe dope. A non-hardening thread lubricant such as LubriMist® Part No. 77-600-947
should be used on the pipe thread. The mating flange, gasket and bolting are mounted to the cabinet mist
outlet flange and shipped with the unit.
Compressed Air Supply
Connect a clean, dry compressed air supply to the inlet air supply connection (ANSI 1/2” 150 lb. RF Flange)
located in the rear of the unit near the top. When threaded flanges are used to connect to the air supply
header system, do not use Teflon tape or conventional pipe dope. A non-hardening thread lubricant such as
LubriMist® Part No. 77-600-947 should be used on the pipe thread. The mating flange, gasket and bolting
are mounted to the cabinet air inlet flange and shipped with the unit.
The inlet air supply must be capable of delivering the SCFM rating of the mist generating assembly installed
on the air/oil heater base. Available mist generating flow rates are indicated in the chart below. See the tag
information for assigning serial numbers described in the “Unit Identification and Labeling” to determine the
mist generating capacity of your mist generating assembly. Recommended minimum air service is 65 PSIG /
4.5 BAR. Conversely, the air service should not exceed 150 PSIG/ 10.3 BAR. The minimum required air
supply needed to ensure that the unit is operable at the maximum mist output capacity is shown in the tables
below.

Installation of an air supply block valve in the supply piping is recommended. The valve should be located
just prior to connecting to the JD air supply connection and should be accessible from grade. The purchaser
is to furnish the air supply block valve.
