Special Concerns for Track Light Mounted Appliances
Special Concerns for Track Light-Mounted Appliances
Track Light-Mounted installations occasionally encounter a problem with fragrance deposits on the
door of the appliance. Left uncorrected for several days the condensation can begin to drip, creating
the appearance of a leak in the machine and damaging the floor.
Cause
This is caused by fragrance droplets from the output of the AQ570TL being blown back onto the
surface of the machine by the ambient air flow. This is due to improper directional orientation of the
output port of the machine and cartridge.
Solution
At installation AND AT EACH SERVICE/CARTRIDGE CHANGE make sure the output port of the
machine is pointing in the same direction as the ambient air flow at the location of the machine.
The simple test is to observe the plume as it leaves the machine. The machine can be adjusted on
a 360-degree axis. Change the direction of the output so the plume is leaving the machine straight
out or perpendicular to the face of the door. If the plume is not readily visible, use a high intensity
flashlight.
Option
If there is so much turbulence at the output that there is no position at which the plume can be
oriented in the correct direction (same direction as the airflow), then use the top output port of the
cartridge. This is done by closing the front port, opening the top port, inserting the cartridge in the
machine and inserting the 2” plastic extension tube into the top port of the cartridge. REMEMBER
THE TUBE HAS TO BE REMOVED BEFORE REMOVING THE CARTRIDGE FOR REFILL.
Service
At each service, check the door for any evidence of fragrance condensation. If there is condensation,
clean it thoroughly with alcohol. Adjust the machine orientation according to the solution above.
