Evaporative Cooling
Evaporative cooling is nature's way of cooling. When air is moved
over a wet surface, water is evaporated and heat is absorbed. When
stepping out of a swimming pool with the wind blowing, evaporative
cooling makes you feel cool, even though the air may be warm.
The human body itself is cooled primarily by the evaporation of
perspiration.
This unit works on the same principle. Air is drawn across wet
filter pads where the air is cooled by evaporation and then circulated
throughout the building. It is this combination of cooled air and the
movement of air over the skin which makes it feel cool.
Unlike refrigeration systems which recirculate the air, an evaporative
cooler continually brings in fresh air while exhausting old air. You
are completely replacing the air every 2 to 4 minutes by opening
windows or doors or a combination of both. The air is always fresh,
not stale, laden with smoke and odors as happens with refrigerated
air conditioning.
Safety Rules
1. Read these instructions carefully.
2. Unit must be in the Off Position and Unplugged from power
receptacle when installing or performing any maintenance.
3. This cooler will run on 120 volt A.C., 60 Hz (cycle) current
only.
4. Motor and pump are grounded and have an automatic thermal
overload switch which will shut motor offwhen it overheats. The
motor will restart automatically when it cools down.
5. Pump receptacle is tbr grounded evaporative cooler pump only.
Do not plug anything else into receptacle.
_WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
use this fan with any "solid-state fan speed control device."
