How to Install the Vortex A/C Model VA091604X
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the Vortex A/C Model VA091604X on an industrial enclosure, ensuring proper cooling functionality.
Estimated time: 45m
Tools needed:
Screwdriver, Wrench, Drill, Wire strippers
Supplies needed:
Mounting screws, Terminal connectors, Vinyl tubing, Muffler mounting clamp, Double-sided tape
- Position the Vortex A/C
Place the Vortex A/C on the top or side of the enclosure, ensuring sufficient clearance for the thermostat and cold air outlet. Ensure the entire mounting footprint is supported.
- Cut the mounting hole
Drill a 1-15/16” (49 mm) diameter hole in the selected location on the enclosure. Deburr any sharp edges around the hole.
- Install the Vortex A/C
Remove the electrical locknut from the Vortex A/C and insert the threaded portion into the hole. From inside the enclosure, screw the locknut onto the threads and tighten securely to compress the sealing gasket.
- Mount the Cold Air Muffler
Determine a suitable location for the Cold Air Muffler inside the enclosure. Use the supplied mounting clamp to attach it securely, either with double-sided tape or by drilling holes for permanent mounting.
- Connect the cold air tubing
Cut a length of the supplied vinyl tubing to connect the cold air outlet of the Vortex A/C to the Cold Air Muffler. Ensure the tubing is free of sharp bends and kinks.
- Install the compressed air filter
Connect the compressed air filter to the compressed air inlet on the Vortex A/C using a length of 3/8” pipe. Ensure the filter is installed in a location where the temperature does not exceed 125°F (52°C).
- Connect the compressed air supply
Attach the compressed air supply to the inlet of the air filter, ensuring that the air flow direction is correct.
- Verify installation
Check all connections and ensure that the Vortex A/C is securely mounted and that there are no leaks in the air supply lines.
