    ACCESSORIES DISCHARGE AIR NOZZLE KIT ASSEMBLY The optional discharge nozzle kits are used to direct the conditioned air to a specific target area. By concentrating the airflow, the nozzles increase the air velocity towards production lines to cool personnel and/or equipment. In server rooms, the nozzles can be used to direct the airflow through the rack to remove the hot air from the area of the equipment.
  • Page 11 ACCESSORIES EVAPORATOR RETURN AIR PLENUM Evaporator return air plenums are available for installations where it is required to duct air to the inlet of the evaporator. The evaporator return air plenums allow the user to connect round duct (flexible or rigid) to the return air intake to reduce air noise and increase the number of options for solving difficult cooling problems.
  • Page 12 ACCESSORIES DISCHARGE DUCT ADAPTER Discharge duct adapters are available for applications where ducted evaporator discharge is required. The adapters can be easily installed on the unit without fasteners, and be installed for either vertical or horizontal ducting. The standard discharge grille is removed and the adapter is attached in the grille opening. DDA-6 for OWC12, converts the evaporator discharge to a 6-inch diameter round duct.
  • Page 13 ACCESSORIES HOSE KIT Hose kits are available in lengths of 10, 25, and 40 feet. Each hose kit allows for con- venient installation of the OWC, while allowing for portability within the allowable space. NOTICE —When using these hoses in applications with water pressures exceed- ing 50 PSIG, a water pressure reducing valve must be installed in the water supply line prior to the hose kit;...
  • Page 14 SPECIAL ORDER ITEMS In some applications, units can be manufactured with optional components for add- ed performance and longevity. Below are a few of the OWC options that are availa- ble. Consult your distributor for pricing and availability.
