Installation
1. Remove front panel using security wrench included in kit and retain security screws. Place cover aside with
care to protect face finish until required in Step 8.
2. Remove hand drying chamber using #2 Philips screw driver and retain screws. Place chamber aside with
care to protect inside finish until required in Step 7.
3. Remove two (2) mounting screws from bottom edge of chassis plate using #2 Philips screw driver and retain
screws. Grasp motor securely and lift entire chassis slightly up & over retainer hooks welded to housing
top. Place chassis aside with care to protect unit until required in Step 5.
4. Install supplied plastic KO bushing (or other, not supplied) into KO to be used for cable prior to installation
of cable into KO or box into RWO (Rough Wall Opening, previously prepared by others). Install wall box
housing into RWO locating stub cable into any one (1) of five (5) available KO locations on sides or top
of box. Using screws supplied with unit (or other types suitable to wall conditions, by others) tighten screws
through adjustable mounting tabs into framing in side walls of RWO to center wall box in opening.
5. Grasp chassis & motor assembly retained in step 3 and slightly lift to place over retainer hooks on housing
top to hold unit in place while driving screws. Using #2 Philips screw driver tighten two (2) screws also
retained in step 3 through holes in bottom edge of chassis plate into threaded posts on wall box back.
6. Refer to Circuit Diagram on page 3 of this Owner's Manual to match correct wire to terminal block on motor
chassis. Pull stub cable through bushing (previously installed, step 4) to allow clearance around hand drying
chamber (to be installed next) and enough length to prep ends for terminal block insertion after routing through
strain relief clamp on chassis. Clamp cable, prep ends of wires and insert correct wires into terminal block
at locations L, N & G. Using a small flat blade screwdriver ensure each wire is properly secured with terminal
block top lock screws.
Connections: (see fig. 6 & refer to Circuit Diagram and see Note B)
A. Connect the live wire (colored Brown, Red or Black) to the terminal block marked "L".
B. Connect the neutral wire (colored Black, Blue, White or Grey) or connect the second live wire (colored
Red or Orange) to the terminal block marked "N".
C. Connect the ground wire to the terminal block marked " " or to the green screw marked " ". Bare
grounding (earth) wires should be sleeved with green and yellow or green tubing.
Colors of live and neutral wires depend on voltage of supply service and requirements of Building and
Electrical Code having jurisdiction.
7. Reinstall hand drying chamber retained in step 2 into wall box housing using #2 Philips screw driver and
screws also retained in step 2 while being careful to not pinch cable arranged to route clear around hand
chamber in step 6.
8. Fasten the front panel onto the chassis box using the two (2) security screws retained in step 1 above
using the security wrench. Retain wrench for any possible service access during dryer lifetime. Turn ON
breaker at service panel (by others) and test dryer operation.
9. Record the unit S/N on this Owner Manual and give this Owner’s Manual, the Installation Guide
and the security wrench to Owner or Facility Manager.

Diagnostics and Remedies
If the dryer will not run
The dryer cycles by itself
or runs constantly
The dryer runs but air
stream is low pressure
and/or low velocity
Ensure that there is no obstruction on or in front of the IR sensor. Clean
any dirt or debris off the sensor lens. If problem persists, replace sensor.
First ensure that the breaker supplying the dryer is operational. If it is,
disconnect the power and remove the dryer cover. Taking suitable
precautions to avoid shock hazard, reconnect the power and check for
Voltage at the terminal block. Verify that connections are made correctly.
Ensure that the supply Voltage is correct. Dryer will run weakly if the
input Voltage is too low. Verify Voltage requirement on unit rating label
and correct supply as required.
The dryer makes a loud
noise and does not run
for a complete cycle
Ensure that the supply Voltage is correct. Dryer will make a loud humming
noise if the input Voltage is too high. Verify Voltage requirement on unit
rating label and correct supply as required. If CBM has been damaged,
replace CBM, IR sensor module.
Symptom Corrective Actions for Initial Installation Failures
Symptom Corrective Actions for In-Service Failures
If the dryer will not run
The IR sensor only “sees”
close range objects
The dryer only blows cold
air during a full cycle
First ensure that the breaker supplying the dryer is operational. If it is,
disconnect the power and remove the dryer cover. Replace the CBM
and IR sensor module. Taking suitable precautions to avoid shock
hazard, reconnect the power and check for Voltage at the terminal block.
Disconnect the power. Remove the dryer cover and check/ ensure heater
SW is ON. Disassemble the blower-motor/fan housing. Test the thermostat
for open circuit. Check the heater element for signs of burning or breakage.
Damaged element must be replaced.
The heater gets hot but
no air stream is produced
Disconnect the power. Remove the dryer cover. Check VR for speed
setting Disassemble the blower- motor/ fan housing. Replace the fan motor.
Reassemble.
The air stream is low
pressure and velocity
Check the output nozzle for obstructions. If none are present, disconnect
the power. Remove the dryer cover. Remove any dust/lint buildup from
intake vent slots. Check VR for speed setting. Disassemble the blower-
motor/fan housing. Check the motor brushes for worn condition (≤ 25/64"
[10] graphite remains) and replace them, if necessary.
Recessed High-Speed ADA-compliant hand dryer
Ensure that there is no obstruction on or in front of the IR sensor. Clean
any dirt or debris off the sensor lens. Check VR for sensor range setting, If
problem persists, disconnect the power and remove the dryer cover and
replace CBM, IR sensor module.
For 208~240 V and 277 V:
Disconnect power from unit; disconnect heater element from circuit;
check resistance (Ω) of element with multimeter. If Ω is off-scale
infinitely large then replace element. If Ω is between 25 and 30
then check motor brushes for wear and replace them if remaining
graphite is ≤ 25/64" [10]. If after reassembly and testing there is still
no motor function then replace motor.
