What material is the outer casing made from?
The outer casing is made from aviation-grade aluminum with an anodised finish.
How does the anodised finish benefit the dryer?

Troubleshooting
Hand dryer not starting
Check the main power supply to the unit. Ensure the circuit breaker is on and the wiring is correctly connected. Verify that nothing is obstructing the sensor.
Weak airflow or slow drying
Ensure the air intake vents are clean and free from obstruction. Dust or debris can significantly reduce airflow. Check that the unit is receiving adequate power.
Unit stops working intermittently
Allow the dryer to cool down, as some models have thermal cut-offs to prevent overheating. Check for any obstructions or a potential short circuit in the wiring. Ensure the installation is per electrical safety standards.
Sensor not detecting hands
Clean the sensor area with a soft, dry cloth. Ensure there is sufficient light in the area, as extreme darkness or direct sunlight can sometimes affect sensor performance. Check for any physical damage to the sensor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: This hand dryer requires direct wiring into a mains electrical supply by a qualified electrician. Ensure the circuit can support the dryer's power requirements. Mount the unit securely to a wall at an appropriate height, considering user accessibility and ensuring it is above sink level and clear of water splashes where possible.
Compatibility: The Diamond Dryer is compatible with standard 220-240V electrical systems. Its IPX2 rating means it should be installed in locations protected from direct water spray.
Care: To maintain the dryer's performance and appearance, regularly clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the anodised finish. Periodically check the air inlet vents for any blockages (e.g., lint, dust) and clear them gently with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to ensure optimal airflow and efficiency. Due to the brushless motor, no internal brush maintenance is required.
