5.2 Integrated Cord Wrap
The Quest Power Air Mover A3000 features integrated cord
management. Wrap the cord around the cord wrap
as shown and secure the cord with the clasp on the plug.
6. Applications
6.1 Placement
Quest Axial Air Movers with FOCUS Technology will allow
placing the Quest Power Air Mover A3000 at an angle nearly
parallel to the wall.
ThetestgraphshowninFigure2depictsimmediateairowattheFOCUSTechnology
corner.TheQuestPowerAirMoverA3000sustainsthisairowformorethan20feet
andmaximizestheairvelocityacrosstheoorandalongthewallwhenplacedtheat
4.5° angle from the wall.
BytouchingthefrontedgeoftheoutputsideoftheQuestPowerAirMoverA3000
againstthewallandrotatingtherestoftheunitagainstthewall,therestoration
professional will place the axial air mover at 4.5° due to the housing’s built-in design.
Industryexpertsagreeplacingairmovers45°angletothewallwastesairowand
reduces the performance by forcing air up the wall.
The best set up angle for quickly and completely drying the sill plate is 4.5°. Set-up
angles greater than 4.5° may be used under unique circumstances
suchascornerairowandstructurevariations.Set-upangle
should never exceed 23°.
6.2 Orienting of Directional Drying System
The Quest Power Air Mover A3000 dries in counter-clockwise and
clockwise directions for optimum ease of use. The Quest Power
Air Mover A3000 ships with rubber feet on one side of the unit for
counter-clockwise drying.
When employing clockwise drying (such as the need to dry a door
jamb),simplyrotatetheaxialairmover90°sotheFOCUSTechnologycornerpointstowardthedoorjamb
andoorfortheclockwisedrying.
