4.0 Operating procedures
There are 3 factors to consider when determining where to place the COOL-SPACE
®
unit.
1. Fresh air supply: The inlet side of the unit (pad side) requires a constant,
uninterrupted supply of fresh air for maximum performance. A distance of 3 feet
clear space to any obstructions at the rear or inlet side of the unit is
recommended.
2. Discharge air flow: The cool air discharged from the unit should be free of
obstruction to allow the air to circulate in order to maximize the cooling zone.
3. Ventilation: In order to operate at maximum effectiveness, it is helpful to have
provisions to remove the air discharged from the COOL-SPACE
®
unit from the
cooling area. This ensures that the COOL-SPACE
®
unit does not recirculate air that
has already been through the evaporative cooling process.
The COOL-SPACE
®
unit must be placed on a level surface to operate correctly. Units create
an oval shaped air pattern. Obstacles such as racks and workbenches may interfere with the
air flow. An attempt should be made to locate the unit in such a manner that interruption of the
air pattern is held to a minimum. Multiple units may be required to cover larger areas.
When the COOL-SPACE
®
unit is placed near a wall or other vertical obstruction, it is
recommended that there be a space of at least 3 feet between the back (pad side) of the unit
and the obstruction. This ensures that a clear supply of fresh air is able to get to the inlet of the
unit.
4.1 Filling the unit with water
Once the COOL-SPACE
®
unit has been connected to a water source as described in 3.1, open
the water supply valve and the unit will fill with water. The float valve will shut off the water flow
when the sump is full.
4.2 Starting the fan
Flip the fan switch to the ON position. Adjust the knob to control the speed of the fan.
