14.2 Splash Plate Installation
The splash plate is designed to hang, supported by
suspension rods (rods provided by others) directly
below the bottom discharge opening of a horizontal
air handler. The center point of the splash plate must
be located at the center point of the discharge
opening and be positioned below the air handler
within the range of dimensions show below as E
(min) & E (max.). For model sizes 60-89, center
support rods will be required (see illustration below).
NOTE: Be sure to include provisions in the stru cture
suspending the discharge plate that will prevent
sway/movement of the plate when the supply fan is in
operation.
To attach all of the hanger rods to the splash plate,
start by threading a flanged nut onto each hanger
rod. Then, slip each hanger rod down through a hole
located in each corner of the splash plate. Next, feed
a flanged nut onto the rod below the splash plate.
Adju sting the nuts will level the splash plate. Torque
hardware after leveling.
