8. Vision/Dri-Tek Dryer Operation
Full Heat Drying
Full heat drying discharges hot grain. This yields higher drying capacity, but requires cooling elsewhere.
Final Moisture
Cooling will remove up to 3% additional moisture. The target moisture should be increased to allow for this
to prevent over drying.
Drying Temperatures
Recommended temperatures are as follow:
Drying efficiency is maximized by using highest possible temperatures, subject to avoiding product
damage/quality losses.
Dryer shut down, if still full, should be preceded by cooling for 10-15 minute to prevent water vapor
condensation and freezing in low temperatures.
