Nova® 4 & NOVA 5 hand dryers shall be manufactured by World Dryer Corporation to
include a one-piece cover constructed of 0.2” thick cast iron (Nova 4) and nished
in white acid-resistant porcelain enamel or 0.9” thick die cast aluminum nished in
brushed chrome plating or epoxy coating (Nova 5). Dryers shall be tted with 360o
revolving die cast aluminum nozzles nished in bright chrome plating. Surface-mounted
covers shall be fastened by two athead, recessed tamper-resistant bolts to a heavy­gauge steel wall plate, which in turn shall be fastened to the wall or a wall box by
four concealed mounting bolts. (For recessed dryers only: A steel wall box shall be
furnished into which a complete base assembly shall be mounted). The dryer shall be
equipped with 15 air intake slots (Nova 4) or 30 air intake slots (Nova 5). The fan shall
be protected by an aluminum die cast grating xed into the blower housing. The entire
mechanism shall be internally grounded throughout. The motor shall be brushless, 1/10
H.P., 3200 RPM, thermally protected. The fan shall be a large single inlet centrifugal
type contained in an aluminum die cast housing. It shall deliver 107 cubic feet per
minute of air volume (4400 LFM) and shall be mounted directly on the motor shaft.
The heating element of nichrome wire shall be mounted on the air intake. It shall be
protected by an automatic resetting circuit breaker (25 AMP) which shall open whenever
the air ow is cut off and shall close when the ow of air is resumed. The element
shall produce an air temperature of 142 F at a 72 F ambient room temperature.
The dryer shall be equipped with an infrared sensor which will allow the dryer to
start automatically when hands are placed underneath the air nozzle, and to stop
automatically when the hands are removed. For push button dryers (Nova 5 only), timer
shall be micro-chip based and microswitch activated. It shall be adjustable to allow for
the required time cycle setting. Nova Dryers shall be listed under reexamination service
of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.

Placement Instruction

• Hand dryers should be spaced at least 2 feet apart, near but not over the wash
basin

• In congested areas, dryers should be located to create a ow from wash basin to
dryer to exit

• NOVA 4 & NOVA 5 should be mounted at least 18” above or away from reective
surfaces which may interfere with the automatic sensor operation.

• Dryer Quantity Recommendation:

Average Trafc: 1 dryer per 2 wash basins
Heavy Trafc: 1 dryer per wash basin
Industrial 54” Circular wash fountains: 4 dryers per sink
