NOTE: The following considerations must be observed
for
gas
dryer installations where dry
cleaners are
installed. The sources
of
all makeup
air
and room ventilation
air
movement
to
all
dryers must be located away from
any
dry
cleaners. This is necessary
so
that solvent vapors will not
be drawn into the dryer inlet ducts. Dry cleaner solvent vapors
will decompose
in
contact with
an
open flame such as the gas f
lame
present in clothes dryers.
The
decomposition products are highly
corrosive and
will cause damage
to
the
dryer ducts and clothes loads.
Electrical Requirements
The electrical requirements necessary
to
operate the unit satisfactorily are listed
on
the serial plate located on
the back panel of each dryer. The electrical connection should be made
to
t
lh
e pigtail leads in the outlet box
on
the rear
of
the unit, using
#1
0 AWG wire.
ONE 30 Amp circuit breaker is required for each complete stack dryer. The wiring diagram is
located
on
the belt guard on the
back
of
the dryer.
NOTE:
IT
IS ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL THAT
THE
DRYER BE GROUNDED BY A SEPARATE

NOTE: WHEN INITIALLY CONNECTING POWER
TO
THE MACHINE
IF
UNUSUAL BEHAVIOR
OF
THE
DISPLAYS OR CONTROLS OCCUR, GIVE THE MACHINE
AN
HOUR
TO
STABILIZE
AND
CHECK
OPERATION AGAIN.
Gas Requirements
The complete gas requirements necessary
to
operate the dryer satisfactorily are listed
on
the serial plate
located
on
the back panel of the dryer.
The
inlet gas connection to
the
unit
is
1/2 inch pipe thread. However,
the size of the piping
to
supply the dryer should
be
determined by reference
to
the Fuel Gas Code and consult-
ing
the
local gas supplier.
A
joint
compound resistant
to
the action
of
liquefied petroleum gases should be employed in making pipe
connections. A 1/8 inch NPT plugged tapping, accessible
for
test gage connection, must
be
installed immedi-
ately
upstream of
the
gas supply connection to the dryer.
A drip tee is provided in the unit gas piping
to
catch dirt and other foreign articles.
All pipe connections should
be
checked
for
leakage with soap solution
or
leak detector. Never check with an
open flame.
CAUTION:
The
dryer
and
its
individual
shutoff
valve
must
be
disconnected
from
the
gas
supply
piping
system
during
any
pressure
testing
of
that
system
at
test
pressures
in
excess
of
1/2
psig.
The
dryer
must
be
isolated
from
the
gas
supply
piping
sys
tem
by

during
any
pressure
testing
of
the
gas
supply
piping
system
at
te
st
pressures
equal
to
or
less
than
1/2
psig.
Burner
Set-Up
All
gas
burner manifolds should
be
checked
for
proper gas pressure while burning. Stack dryer burners should
be
set
at
3.5 W.C. while burner operating.
Exhaust
Installation
We recommend using the factory designed offset and collector system for exhausting the dryer. This two 6"
into
one
8" collector is designed
to
minimize back pressure
to
the
units. Exhausting
of
the dryer should
always be planned and constructed
so
that minimum
air
restrictions occur. (Refer
to
Figure
on
dryer exhaust-
ing). Any restriction due to pipe size
or
type
of installation can cause slow drying time, excessive heat, and
lint build up in system and the room.
From an operational standpoint, incorrect
or
inadequate exhausting can cause cycling of the high limit
thermostat which shuts off the main burners and results in inefficient drying.
