The mixture of the fine spray andthe dust-laden air is very thorough, so that every particleof solid matter is made wet and heavy by the spray. The evaporation of a portion of the spray water humidifiesthe air, and the amount thus evaporated depends upon therelative temperature of the water. The Carrier System ofHumidity Control provides a very simple method of heatingthe water and varying its temperature to procure the humiditydesired. In summer when the water is not heated, the air is cooledby one of two different methods. First, where the same wateris recirculated, the air is cooled by evaporation; that is, theheat necessary to evaporate the water is extracted from theair. This gives the greatest cooling on the hottest days, givinga drop in temperature to the air ranging from 8 to 20 degrees. Second, the use of cold water in sufficient quantities willallow the air to be cooled and moisture condensed from it,thus lowering the humidity. Details Common to All Carrier Washers. Angle Frame Which Supports Casing and Tank. This Rigid Construction used on all Types of Carrier Washers Carrier Air Conditioning Company of America Leaving the spray chamber, the air then passes throughwashing surface. Four corrugated sheets are kept floodedwith a film of water, so the dirt and other solid matter, whichhas been wetted by the atomizing sprays, will be thrownagainst these sheets and washed to the settling tank below,giving a high washing efficiency. The Carrier Washers pro-vide from one and one-half to four times the amount ofwashing surface provided in any other make. A separate andindependent means for flooding the washing surface is em-ployed, a feature found in no other make. The last two corrugations of the eliminator with the pro-truding lips, effectively remove all free or unabsorbed moistureand solid matter; the air leaving the washer bein
