MAINTENANCE
Routine maintenance is required to keep this product
operating at its peak performance and efficiency. Over
time, the housing, air intake grille, air intake filter,
blower wheels and motor(s) will accumulate a buildup
of dust, debris and other residue. It is imperative to keep
these components clean. Failure to do so will not only
lower operational efficiency and performance, but also
reduce the useful life of the product. The time between
cleanings depends on the application, location, and
daily hours of use. On average, under normal use
conditions, the product should require a thorough
cleaning once every six (6) months.
To clean the product, perform the following:
1. Verify the product has been disconnected from the
power source.
2. Use a damp cloth and either a warm mild soapy water
solution or bio-degradable degreaser, to wipe down the
exterior components of the housing.
3. To access the interior of the product, remove the air
intake grille(s) and/or air intake filter(s). This is
accomplished by removing the screws on the face of
the air intake grille(s)/filter(s).
4. Thoroughly clean the air intake grille(s)/filter(s).
5. Thoroughly wipe down the motor, blower wheels and
blower wheel housings. Be careful not to spray the
motor with a water hose.
6. The motor(s) require no additional lubrication. They are
permanently lubricated and feature double sealed ball
bearings.
7. To re-install the product, reverse the procedures
above.
8. Reconnect the power source to the product.
9. If you have any questions regarding the maintenance
of the product, contact the manufacturer.
SPECIAL APPLICATIONS
Outdoor Installation
For outdoor unit special consideration may be required
for enclosure, motor, wheel and other components to
minimize damage caused by exposure to the outdoor
elements. Contact factory for special construction and
costing.
Freezer and Cooler Installation
Air curtain must be mounted on the warm side for optimal
performance. Adjustable perforated dampers are
strongly recommended to control the air curtain air flow
velocity at the floor level.
High humid areas may require de-humidifier or
additional defrost cycle to minimize condensation and
freezing for freezer applications. We recommend the air
curtain unit to not replace doors but work in conjunction
with door opening sequence cycle. Contact factory for
details.
