C. DRYER ENCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS
Bulkheads and partitions
should be
made of noncombustible materials and
must be
located a minimum of
12-inches (30.48 cm [18-inches [45.72 cm] or more is recommended for ease of installation, maintenance, and
service]) above the dryers outer top, except along the front of the dryer which may be closed in if desired.
NOTE:
Even though a minimum of 12-inches (30.48 cm) above the dryers outer top is acceptable, a
clearance of 18-inches (45.72 cm) or more is suggested for ease of installation and service
(electrical power connections).
NOTE:
When fire sprinkler systems are located above the dryers, a minimum of 12-inches (30.48 cm)
above the dryers outer top
is
required
.
NOTE:
Allowances
must be
made for the opening of the control door.
Dryers may be positioned sidewall to sidewall. However, allowances
must be
made for the opening and closing
of the control door and the lint door. It is suggested that the dryer be positioned about 2 feet (0.61 meters) away
from the nearest obstruction for ease of installation, maintenance, and service (to be measured from the back
guard). Refer to the
illustration
on the previous page for details.
NOTE:
Air considerations are important for proper and efficient operation.
