INSTALLATION NOTES & INSTRUCTIONS
HOISTING:
When using a forklift to lift the Humidaire Unit, it is important to verify
that the forks are positioned in the two stirrups and fully under the frame of the water
tank. See picture below.
LOCATION:
If the location of the Humidaire Unit has not been specified on gin plans,
it should be located in a clean place, fairly close to the point of application of humid air.
If the pipes are insulated (lagged), the humid air pipe can be run 80 to 100 feet (25 to 30
meters) without difficulty.
TIPS
Avoid an area in close proximity to the press pumps. The extra heat generated by press
pumps tends to hurt the performance of the unit.
Outside the USA, some insurance companies or government authorities may require the
Humidaire Unit to be located in a room separate from cotton processing operations.
AIR PIPES:
Connect air pipes in accordance with installation drawings. IMPORTANT:
Even if not shown on drawings, make sure a slide valve is installed to regulate the flow of
air through the Humidaire Unit. This is usually installed between the Humidaire and the
fan. It may be located on the discharge side of the fan, especially where two valves are
used to distribute humid air to two points of application.
