OVERVIEW
Mars Air Curtains are
designed to cover door
openings, providing
both temperature
control/environmental
separation and flying
insect control when the
building’s doors are
opened. Typical
installation heights are:
BD-14 Series
(Environmental Separation up 16’ and Flying Insect
Control 14’), BD-18 Series (Environmental
Separation up 20’ and Flying Insect Control 18’),
BD-22 Series (Environmental Separation up 24’
and Flying Insect Control 22’), BD-26 Series
(Environmental Separation up 28’ and Flying Insect
Control 26’) and BD-30 Series (Environmental
Separation up 32’ and Flying Insect Control 30’).
The units are typically overhead mounted
horizontally above the door opening. They can also
be vertically mounted alongside the opening.
Heated units must be mounted on the inside or the
protected side of the opening. The motors used in
the BD Series range from 5 HP to 30 HP (see
submittal for details).
All the BD Series come standard with an expanded
metal air intake grille(s). The BD Series can be
configured with Flat Bank or V-Bank Sections, as

INSTALLATION
Typical Mounting – Wall or Ceiling Mounted
Horizontally Above the Door Opening
1. Overhead installation is recommended to
prevent the possibility of the unit falling if the wall
to which the unit is mounted is hit by a truck or
material handling device. If, however, wall or
bracket mounting is preferred, additional holes
may be drilled in the side panels of the housing.
Note: Bracket/Support mounting is not generally
recommended for Air Curtains equipped with
steam or hot water coils. Overhead installation
using threaded rods with independent
suspension of coils is recommended.
2. Center the unit over the opening. The air curtain
shall be equal to or greater than the width of the
opening.
3. Four pre-punched 1/2” mounting holes on the top
of the unit are provided for your convenience.
These holes must be utilized to secure the
product overhead. All hardware is field provided
by others.
4. Mount the product such that the discharge is 1”
above the opening and all obstacles. (FIG. 1)
Note: If the product is installed higher than the
recommended 1” above the opening, then it
must be moved 3/8” away from the wall for every
1” that it is moved up. Any void between the wall
and the product must be sealed, by others, to
optimize performance.
FIG. 1
5. Use four (4) threaded rods for overhead
installation or four (4) threaded bolts for wall
installation. All hardware is field provided by
others. (FIG. 1)
6. If applicable, for tandem installation or products
mounted side by side, allow no more than 6”
between the two products. For overhead
installation using threaded rods, the products
may require a beam, by others, to span the full
distance of the mounting length. (Reference
Accessory Installation Supplement)
7. All wires must be connected to the external
junction box(s) of the unit.
8. The unit must be wired per NEC and local codes.
Electrical Field Wiring
The unit and any optional accessories must be wired
with the proper voltage to the junction box per the
wiring diagram. (FIG. 2, unheated products only)
WARNING
Precaution should be taken in explosive atmospheres.

FIG. 2
START-UP
This product has been assembled and tested at the
factory prior to shipping. The following procedures
should be performed to assure its performance. Before
continuing with the start-up, it is important to recognize
the safety controls furnished with the unit.
NOTE
For accessory installation, reference Accessory
Installation Supplement.
For heated products, reference Heated Products
Supplement.
WARNING
Prevent hazard of electrical shock. More than one
disconnect switch may be required to de-energize this
product.
WARNING
The following items must all be completed by a qualified
installer and checked off when completed
A. Re-
check that the product has been installed
properly and is level and secure.
B. Check all terminal screws are tight and field wiring
is connected in accordance to National Electrical
Code and wired per the enclosed wiring diagram.
For electric heated models, ensure that the coils
are secured and not touching each other on any
metal surface.
C. Verify proper voltage prior to powering the product.
(See product label for reference).
D. Check all field wired components “if supplied” are
wired correctly.
E. Check that the inlet air supply and the discharge air
supply are free of obstructions.
F. Check that all air filter(s) and/or air intake grille(s) are
in place and installed properly, as originally shipped.
G.
Verify voltage to the product once more and turn
power on.
H. Regardless of whether the product is mounted on the
inside or outs
ide of the door opening, set the air
directional vanes in the discharge nozzle slightly
outward to approximately 10-15° towards the outside,
or the wind load. (FIG. 3).
I. For products with control panels, turn the HOA (Hand-
On-Auto) selector switch to “On” position and open the
door to energize the product. For products without a
control panel or an On/Off switch, open the door to
energize the product.
J. If heated products are installed, reference Heated
Products Supplement.
K. For three phase units, verify direction of rotation of
blower wheels (note direction arrows on the blower
wheel housing). Correct if needed by changing
polarity of three phase power.
L. VERY IMPORTANT Using a clamp meter, measure
the amperage to each motor and ensure that they do
not exceed the amperage listed on the product label.
M. If applicable, adjust the air intake grille(s) such that the
output air stream reaches the floor. For temperature
control and environmental separation applications, the
air stream should reach the floor with sufficient
strength to create an air seal around the door opening
without creating turbulent mixing of the inside and
outside air. For flying insect control applications, the
air stream should reach the floor with maximum
strength. If after proper installation and adjustment,
the product appears to be producing too little or too
much air for the application, contact the manufacturer.
FIG. 3

MAINTENANCE
Routine maintenance is required to keep this product
operating at its peak performance and efficiency. Over
time, the housing, air intake grille, air intake filter,
blower wheels and motor(s) will accumulate a build up
of dust, debris and other residue. It is imperative to
keep these components clean. Failure to do so will not
only lower operational efficiency and performance, but
also reduce the useful life of the product. The time
between cleanings depends on the application,
location and daily hours of use. On average, under
normal use conditions, the product should require a
thorough cleaning once every six (6) months.
To clean the product, perform the following:
1. Verify the product has been disconnected from the
power source.
2. Use a damp cloth and either a warm mild soapy water
solution or bio-degradable degreaser, to wipe down
the exterior components of the housing.
3. To access the interior of the product, remove the air
intake grille(s) and/or air intake filter(s). This is
accomplished by removing the screws on the face of
the air intake grille(s)/filter(s) or top access panels.
4. Thoroughly clean the air intake grille(s)/filter(s) or top
access panels.
5. Thoroughly wipe down the motor, blower wheels and
blower wheel housings. Be careful not to spray the
motor with a water hose.
6. The motor(s) may require additional lubrication. The
cartridge bearings for blowers are permanently
lubricated double sealed ball bearings and do not
require additional lubrication. The pillow block
bearings require periodic greasing depending on use.
The Zerk fittings are provided on bearing.
7. To re-install the product, reverse the procedures
above.
8. Reconnect the power source to the product.
9. If you have any questions regarding the maintenance
of the product, contact the manufacturer.
SPECIAL APPLICATIONS
Outdoor Installation
For outdoor unit special consideration may be required
for enclosure, motor, wheel, and other components to
minimize damage caused by exposure to the outdoor
elements. Contact factory for special construction and
costing.
Freezer and Cooler Installation
Air curtain must be mounted on the warm side for
optimal performance. Variable Frequency Drive (VFD)
is strongly recommended to control the air curtain air
flow velocity at the floor level.
High humid areas may require de-humidifier or
additional defrost cycle to minimize condensation and
freezing for freezer applications. We recommend the air
curtain unit to not replace doors but work in conjunction
with door opening sequence cycle. Contact factory for
details.

WARRANTY
Mars’ warranty coverage, period, extent, and
limitations apply to the product only. It does not apply
to labor. Mars warrants that the Mars product 1) is
free from defects in materials and workmanship, and
2) conforms to Mars’ published specifications. The
warranty period for Mars products (except for heated
models, custom models, or WMI, WMH and BD
models) is a five (5) year period commencing on the
date of shipment. The warranty for heated models is
an eighteen (18) month period, the warranty for
custom models and for accessories is a twelve (12)
month period, and the warranty for WMI, WMH, and
BD models is a twelve (12) month period. The date
on the customer’s invoice is the date of shipment
unless Mars or your reseller informs you and Mars
otherwise. Mars will provide free replacement of any
part that fails as a result of a defect in material or
manufacturer’s workmanship. Changes in
operational specification parameters that differ from
those provided on the original purchase order are not
covered. Mars products are inspected and tested
before packaging and are shipped in working
condition. The warranty for Mars products only
covers free-of-charge replacement of failed parts.
The warranty does not cover labor and transportation
expenses that may be required to deliver and to
install replacement parts. Because in many
instances it is impossible to determine the cause of
failure, the customer may be responsible for
transportation charges associated with replacement
of failed part. Mars does not warrant uninterrupted or
error-free operation of Mars product. Under no
circumstance is Mars liable for any of the following:
1) third-party claims against you for damages, 2)
special, incidental, or indirect damages, or 3) any
economic consequential damages (including lost
profits and savings), regardless of whether Mars, its
suppliers, or its resellers were informed of the
possibility of damages. The warranty does not cover
repair or exchange of Mars products resulting from
misuse, accidental damage, modification, unsuitable
physical or operating environment, improper
maintenance or installation by customer, or failure
caused by a product for which Mars is not
responsible. The warranty does not cover damages
caused by mishandling during transportation. The
warranty is voided by removal or alteration of Mars
product or parts identification labels, and by improper
installation of product and resulting non-compliance
with federal, state, and local codes and regulations.
Additionally, Mars reserves the right to void the
warranty for non-payment of invoice.
