10-00 Page 2 2008-04-11 1. INTRODUCTION NOTE Prior to installing any AIRFOG product carefully READ through this entire guide, it contains valuable information, which will assist in all aspe cts of the installation.
10-00 Page 3 2008-04-11 (2) Since AFE nozzle systems use a zero psig water pressure f eed network, the water feed system and nozzles must be horizontal and at the same height as the water pressure reduction regulator (vacuum valve).
10-00 Page 4 2008-04-11 solution, system reliability is increased, maintenance is possi ble without shutting down all zones, and capital cost is often reduced. (2) It is recommended that air free of oil and moisture (control quality air) be used with AIRFOG systems.

10-10 Page 8 2008-04-11 1. INSTALLATION A. NOZZLE SYSTEM LAYOUT (1) If a drawing for the proposed system was not supplied, then it is recommended that one be created prior to installing the system. With reference to the AIRFOG Engineering Manual, review the site where the nozzle system is to be in stalled.

10-10 Page 11 2008-04-11 2. ZONES A. INTRODUCTION (1) It may be necessary to break down the space to be humidified into zones. Limitation of the control devices and maxi mum run of feed piping may indicate the need for multiple zones. Refer to the Engineering manual for detailed limitation of components.

10-10 Page 13 2008-04-11 E. CONNECTING NOZZLES (1) All the supplied nozzles have two inlet ports with push in, quick release style fittings as shown in Figure 6 Quick Release Fittings. These fittings are on ly designed for use with 1/4” O.D. plastic tubing.
10-10 Page 14 2008-04-11 G. VACUUM VALVE (1) The vacuum valve must be centrally located so there are approximately an equal number of nozzles being fed from each of its two output ports (one on the left side and the other on the right side). There is a mounting bracket supplied wit h each vacuum valve.
10-10 Page 15 2008-04-11 regulator to have an output of 50 psig. The pilot air pressure range is from 0 to 70 psig. (2) The four ports on the pilot operated air regulator are the pilot air pressure in.

10-10 Page 17 2008-04-11 I. PRIMARY AIR PRESSURE CONTROL (1) The primary air pressure control section (with the shutoff valve) is conne cted to the air compressor or the compressed air source as specified in the Designer produced drawings. See Figure 12 Primary Air Pressure Control Section.

10-20 Page 22 2008-04-11 1. AFE SELF CONTAINED AIRFOG SYSTEMS A. AFE MINI SYSTEMS (1) AFE MINI systems are self-contained pa ckaged systems that include all necessary components. (2) They require the following connections: (a) 3/8” O.D. plastic or soft copper water supply line rated at a minimum of 25 psig.
10-20 Page 23 2008-04-11 Figure 1. Mini Installations Figure 2. Plumbing End Connections.
10-20 Page 24 2008-04-11 B. AFE OCTO SYSTEMS (1) Octo systems are partially self contained and are between the simple Mini self- contained installation and the modular AFE systems. The Designer’s drawings and parts list will define the configuration.
10-20 Page 25 2008-04-11 Figure 3. Octo Layout with Interfaces Figure 4. Octo Spray Pattern (4) Mounting using threaded rods requires installing field supplied 3/8” NC supporting rods from the ceiling, raising the unit up into location and securing it to the support rods using the supplied washers and nuts.
10-20 Page 26 2008-04-11 (9) Control Panel installation for standard Octo hardware is explained in the under Control Panel section. (10) The nozzles on the Octo units are pointed straight forward when shipped but these can be oriented in any direction that will not have the plume strike a solid object or another plume for at least 16 feet.

10-30 Page 30 2008-04-11 1. AFE, MINI, AND OCTO START-UP PROCEDURES A. INTRODUCTION (1) The operator must make reference to Figure 1 Typical Nozzle Layout when following these instructions. Prior to startup, ensure the following: (a) All components have been visually checked for proper connections.
10-30 Page 31 2008-04-11 (3) Adjust the water regulator valve in the primary water pressure control section until the gauge reads 25 psig. (4) The pressure regulator on the vacuum valve should be adjusted to read between 5 and 7 psig.
10-30 Page 32 2008-04-11 (3) If the timer were set as in the above examples, the system would run for 4 hours, shut off for 2 minutes, run for another 4 hours, shut off for 2 minutes, and so on and so forth. NOTE The humidistat takes precedence over the timer for shutting down the system.

10-40 Page 36 2008-04-11 1. AFE, MINI, AND OCTO SHUT DOWN PROCEDURES A. Controlled system shutdowns are conducted for either maintenance (scheduled or repair) or long term seasonal reasons. If the shutdown is for short term maintenance then it may be possible to shorten this full procedure.
10-50 Page 37 2008-04-11 10-50 MAINTENANCE.
10-50 Page 38 2008-04-11 1. MAINTENANCE A. The two most probable maintenance problems are: (1) The accumulation of dirt and mineral deposits in/on the nozzle (2) Air and water leaks that may be due to marginal workmanship during installation but not obvious until after many hours of operations.
10-50 Page 39 2008-04-11 C. Repair the identified problems and verify the system is fully operational using the procedure described in the Start Up section of this guide. 4. UNSCHEDULED MAINTENANCE A. Normally an unscheduled maintenance activity is initiated by an observation of a leak or other failure.
10-50 Page 40 2008-04-11 a visual difference in the output of the nozzles as more tension is applie d to the spring. Be sure not to press down on the thumb wheel while turning it. (3) Release the thumb wheel tension and, once again, there should be a noticeable change in the nozzle output.
