NOTE
Damage to the blower could occur if there is blockage in the inlet or outlet
ports or piping. Care should be taken when install the blower to assure that
there are no foreign objects or restrictions in the ports or piping.
NOTE
Vacuum discharge must be piped away for sound/temperature requirements.
Tuthill recommends placing a 16-mesh wire screen backed with hardware cloth at the remote inlet connection
of your Qube for the first 50 hours of use, until the system is clean. Clean the screen after a few hours of
operation and discard of it once the system is clean. It is important to dispose of the screen at this time, as
it will eventually deteriorate and small pieces going into the blower can cause serious damage.
A flex connector at the intake (if piped away) and discharge connections shall always be used.
NOTE
Failure to use flex connectors at the intake and discharge connectors will
cause stress at these location and could cause connection and equipment
failures.
External piping at the intake and discharge connections shall be fully supported.
NOTE
Failure to properly support the pipe at the intake and discharge connections
will result in stress in these locations and could result in the unit being un-
level.

NOISE LEVELS ARE BASED ON RADIANT NOISE FROM THE ENCLOSURE. INLET (VACUUM) AND DISCHARGE PIPING WILL REQUIRE
INSULATION AND A SILENCER FOR LOCAL VENTING. ALL DEVICES IN AIR SYSTEM WILL BE ACOUSTICALLY INSULATED.
NOISE LEVELS ARE BASED ON THE UNIT BEING INSTALLED ON A SOLID SURFACE. ADDITIONAL INSULATION IS REQUIRED IF THE
UNIT IS ELEVATED.
