• Connect the hand dryer to the nearest suitable distribution panel.
• To limit a voltage drop, and insure efcient operation, use wire gauge as required by local or National Electrical Code.
• Do not connect to a branch circuit with CB or fuse protection over 20 Amps. This is in compliance with The National Electrical Code
#210-20.
• All automatic model hand dryers must have a dedicated 20 Amp circuit as required by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL).
• Route all eld wiring away from any moving parts within the hand dryer.
Failure to disconnect the power source before installation or servicing can
result in serious injury or death from electric shock.
Failure to properly ground this unit could result in severe electrical shock

Installation
IMPORTANT: Consult local and general regulations before performing dryer installation. Make certain that the electrical
network is not overloaded. Do not connect to a branch circuit with a circuit breaker or fuse rated over 20 Amps. This is a UL
recommendation and complies with NEC #210-20.
A) DISCONNECT THE POWER SOURCE.
B) Fit and Finish Precautions;
1) Mount the hand dryer wall box at the recommended height per Table #1.
2) Mount the wall box ush - to a maximum of 1/8” (3.2mm) below the
nished wall surface for a proper recessed t.
3) Caulking is recommended AFTER installation of the aluminum base
assembly for a nished look and to help keep water out of the appliance.
(Caulking before installation may create a t problem.)
C) Mounting the Steel Wall Box;
CAUTION: Proper installation requires that the base be installed into the
steel wall box supplied.
1) Locate the steel wall box in the wall at the desired position, having the lower
edge of the box at the selected height specied in Table #1.
2) When two or more dryers are installed, they should be spaced 24” (61cm) minimum from center to center.
3) To mount the wall box, frame the opening in the wall per Figure #1.
4) Allow an opening in the framing to correspond with the preferred wall box knock-out for easy access of electrical conduit.
5) Mount the wall box in the opening. Fasten with No.10 (M5) wood screws or appropriate fasteners as required.
6) Using the nearest suitable distribution panel, run conduit.
7) To limit voltage drop for efcient operation, use No. 12 wire or larger as required by local electrical code or NEC.
8) Automatic hand dryers require dedicated 20 amp circuits to avoid unattended starting due to voltage uctuations. This includes
avoiding switched lighting circuits or other circuits where equipment may be switched on / off.
9) Provide a minimum length of 24” (61cm) of wire in the wall box to allow easy connection to the dryer terminals.
