INSTALLATION Field assembly Note: These assembly instructions are for Ultra-sorb Model MP panels shipped unassembled by request or as required. Panels with unit height more than 93" (2360 mm) are shipped unassembled. LAY OUT THE PANEL COMPONENTS Place the panel components on a large, flat working surface. - Page 5 Field assembly INSERT DISPERSION TUBES INTO AN UNASSEMBLED ULTRA-SORB PANEL If the Ultra-sorb Model MP panel was shipped unassembled, the dispersion tubes need to be inserted into the panel. Note: Use soapy water to lubricate end of tubes where inserted into rubber grommet.

Location C is the best choice. Air leaving a fan is usually very turbulent and can cause vapor to not absorb at the expected non-wetting distance. Allow for more distance if installing downstream from a fan. Calculated absorption distances assume even airflow across entire dispersion device.
