STEP NO. 3 – VERIFY ATOMIZER ARRAY PLACEMENT

This arrangement still allows for the re-positioning of atom-
izers to avoid obstructions.
For positioning the atomizers to discharge across the width
or the room, refer to Figure 9. The atomizers must be above
the turbine housing and in between the intake and exhaust
ducts, which does not allow for a great deal of flexibility
when positioning atomizers. Impinging on the turbine insula-
tion must be avoided as this may create run-off that could
leak between seams in the insulation and come in contact
with the turbine housing. Atomizers must be a minimum of 3
ft (0.9 m) from the adjacent wall, and the centerlines of
discharge must be a minimum of 3 ft (0.9 m) apart.
