General Safety Information
DANGER
Failure to disconnect the power source before installation or servicing can result in serious
injury or death from electric shock.
• Always disconnect the power source before servicing or installing the hand dryer.
DANGER
Failure to properly ground this unit could result in severe electrical shock and/or death.
• This hand dryer must be properly grounded for safe operation. An identified ground connection point is supplied on the
hand dryer’s wall base.
• We recommend GFCI protection in wet or damp locations or as required by local code.
WARNING
Risk of fire, personal injury or property damage are possible if local codes, or safety
recommendations are not followed.
• Installation and servicing should only be performed by qualified electrical technicians.
• Use only the electrical power (voltage and frequency) specified for the model hand dryer being installed. See Table 1 -
Electrical Specifications.
• Connect the hand dryer to the nearest suitable distribution panel. The fixed wiring must include a disconnection means
complying with local wiring codes.
• To limit a voltage drop, and insure efficient operation, use No.12 AWG wire or larger as required by local electrical codes.
• Always connect to a branch circuit with circuit breaker or fuse protection with an electrical rating greater than the
model hand dryer’s rated amperage shown in Table 1 - Electrical Specifications in accordance with the NEC (National
Electrical Code) and/or CEC (Canadian Electrical Code).
• To avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal cutout, the hand dryer must not be supplied through an
external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the utility.
• Each automatic model hand dryer must have a dedicated circuit.
• Route all field wiring away from moving parts within the hand dryer.
• The NEC (National Electrical Code) and/or CEC (Canadian Electrical Code) require installation fittings with smooth,
rounded surfaces for protection of power supply cables.
CAUTION
Improper mounting could result in personal injury or property damage.
• Follow the mounting height recommendations in Table 2.
• On a stud wall, one side of the hand dryer should be mounted to an existing stud.
