Catalog 13: Carrier air washers and humidifiers: applied to public office and industrial buildings, with notes on humidity . free from clogging with foreign material. The smallest holeis %q of an inch in diameter, yet it throws a perfectly atomizedmist, by reason of the centrifugal principle upon which itoperates. We do not use the so-called self-cleaning or self-flushingnozzles, as there seems to be no more reason for letting dirtget into the spray piping system than would be the wisdomof allowing obstructions to get into your water supply systemwith flushing devices arranged with a hope of cleaning it out. Our method is to thoroughly filter the water and effectivelyremove all dirt and foreign matter before it goes to the nozzles. Although the discharge opening in the nozzle is muchlarger than those in general use, still every precaution is takento insure the removal of any lint or dirt from the water beforeit enters the spray piping. The water pressure required varies with the type of washerand work to be performed, but never exceeds twenty-fivepounds per square inch. Details Common to All Carrier Washers.

The area of orifice of the nozzle is eight times the area ofeach opening in screen; therefore, there is not the least possible 16 Carrier Air Conditioning Company . — of America chance of stopping up the spray nozzles from dirt which passesthrough the strainer. In order to provide against an excessive stoppage of thestrainer, at least this amount (12 sq. in.) of strainer screenis provided for each and every nozzle used in a CarrierWasher, giving a strainer surface two hundred and eightytimes the area of the nozzle orifice. ifc* ^ %
