Cleanany 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 suitableprecautions to avoid shock hazard, reconnect the power and check forVoltage at the terminal block. Verify that connections are made correctly.Surface-mounted High-Speed hand dryer Ensure that the supply Voltage is correct. Dryer will run weakly if theinput Voltage is too low. Verify Voltage requirement on unit rating labeland correct supply as required.The dryer makes a loudnoise and does not runfor a complete cycleEnsure that the supply Voltage is correct. Dryer will make a loud hummingnoise if the input Voltage is too high. Verify Voltage requirement on unitrating label and correct supply as required. If CBM has been damaged,replace CBM, IR sensor module and VR component and cable.Symptom Corrective Actions for Initial Installation FailuresSymptom Corrective Actions for In-Service FailuresIf the dryer will not runThe IR sensor only “sees”close range objectsThe dryer only blows coldair during a full cycleEnsure that there is no obstruction on or in front of the IR sensor. Cleanany dirt or debris off the sensor lens. If problem persists, disconnect thepower and remove the dryer cover. Taking suitable precautions to avoidshock hazard, reconnect the power and try carefully adjusting the sensitivity control (yellow shaft in blue box on CBM) to increase the sensing range. 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. Replace the CBMand 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 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 butno air stream is producedDisconnect the power. Remove the dryer cover and disassemble the blower-motor/fan housing. Replace the fan motor.The air stream is lowpressure and velocityCheck the output nozzle for obstructions. If none are present, disconnectthe power. Remove the dryer cover. Remove any dust/lint buildup from intake vent slots. Disassemble the blower-motor/fan housing. Check the motor brushes for worn condition (≤ 1-3/16” [30 mm] graphite remains) and replace them, if necessary.1001211545 Rev E 28 May. 2013
