SG Series Model

4.2 COLUMN OR WALL MOUNTING

   units may be suspended from cantilevered supports 

on walls or columns.  SG-2 and SG-4S units may be 

mounted against columns but should extend at least 

24” from walls in keeping with good airflow practice.  

SG-4T units require 36” clearance from walls and 

columns for blower compartment access.

   Prior to installation, refer to specifications in figures 1, 

2 and 3. Note mounting and clearance requirements 

and allow for proper plumbing and electrical access.  

allow at least 36” for door swing and component access 

on the door side of the unit.  All SG models require 18” 

clearance from overhead obstructions for access to 

electrical junction boxes.

4. INSTALLATION

   carefully remove the unit from the shipping con-

tainer, inspecting for shipping damage.  for ease of 

installation, open access door and remove unicells and 

filters from the cabinet.

   Units suspended from the ceiling require 1/2”  threaded 

rods installed in top corners of the units. See figure 2 

for mounting hole locations for all models. additional 

support should be used for  auxiliary equipment or 

ducting.  the SG should not be used for support of 

personnel or  material.

   reinstall the components which were removed ear lier 

to facilitate mounting the unit.

4.1 CEILING MOUNTING

   SG units are designed for suspended mounting, 

using 1/2” all-thread rod as shown in figure 4. 

customer should take care to ensure that roof 

 trusses are adequate to support unit weight and 

support members. in figure 4, angle iron cross 

members are secured between roof trusses.  

turnbuckles greatly simplify rod installation.  

rod length should be kept to a minimum  

36” preferred).  all SG units have cross-broken 

sheet metal sumps with drains centered under the 

collection section.

4.3 BOTTOM SUPPORTS 

   units may be supported from underneath,  provided 

care is taken to assure good drain  connection and 

leak-free sumps.

4.4 DRAINS 

   all SG units are supplied with 1 1/2” fPt drains.  if dry 

material is to be collected and in-place cleaning is not 

supplied, then drain connection(s) should be plugged.  

If in-place cleaning is supplied, or a liquid is collected 

within the SG unit, refer to figure 5 for drain and drain 

trap installation.

4.5 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS 

   all SG units are provided with terminal blocks in a 

top-mounted electrical box for incoming power 

connections.  Units with blowers have box- mounted 

step-down transformers to supply re quired 115 volts to 

power packs.  Units without blowers are equipped for 

115 volt supply only (see figure 6).
