8 American Dryer Corp. 113608-13

Page 9

Fresh Air Supply Requirements _______

This appliance may only be installed in a room that meets the appropriate ventilation requirements specified in the national installation regulations.

When the dryer is operating, it draws in room air, heats it, passes this air through the tumbler, and exhausts it out of the building. Therefore, the room air must be continually replenished from the outdoors. If the make-up air is inadequate, drying time and drying efficiency will be adversely affected. Ignition problems and sail switch “fluttering” problems may result, as well as premature motor failure from overheating. The dryer must be installed with provisions for adequate combustion and make-up air supply.

Air supply (make-up air) must be given careful consideration to ensure proper performance of each dryer. Fresh air ventilation openings shall not be blocked and/or sealed. As a general rule, an unrestricted air entrance from the outdoors of 224 inch cm2] per 1,000 Btu [252 kcal].)

It is not necessary to have a separate make-up air opening for each dryer. Common make-up air openings are acceptable. However, they must be set up in such a manner that the make-up air is distributed equally to all the dryers.

(1,445 cm2) is required. (Based on 1 inch2 [6.5

Exhaust Requirements ________________

Exhaust ductwork should be designed and installed by a qualified professional. Improperly sized ductwork will create excessive back pressure, which results in slow drying, increased use of energy, and shutdown of the burner by the airflow (sail) switch, burner hi-limits, or lint chamber hi-limit protector thermostat. The dryer must be installed with a proper exhaust duct connection to the outside.

The design of the flue system shall be such that any condensate formed when operating the appliance from cold shall either be retained and subsequently re-evaporated or discharged.

CAUTION: This dryer produces combustible lint and must be exhausted to the outdoors.

Improperly sized or installed exhaust ductwork can create a potential fire hazard.

The ductwork should be laid out in such a way that the ductwork travels as directly as possible to the outdoors with as few turns as possible. Single or independent dryer venting is recommended. It is suggested that the use of 90° turns be avoided; use 30° and/or 45° bends instead. The radius of the elbows should preferably be 1-1/2 times the diameter of the duct. All ductwork should be smooth inside with no projections from sheet metal screws or other obstructions, which will collect lint. When adding ducts, overlap the duct being connected. All ductwork joints must be taped to prevent moisture and lint from escaping into the building. Inspection doors should be installed at strategic points in the exhaust ductwork for periodic inspection and cleaning of lint from the ductwork.

A = 20-inches (50.80 cm) B = 22.5-inches (57.15 cm)

EXAMPLE: For a bank of 4 dryers, 2 unrestricted openings measuring 20-inches by 22.5-inches (50.80 cm by 57.15 cm) are acceptable.

To compensate for the use of registers or louvers used over the openings, this area must be increased by approximately 33%. Make-up air openings should not be located in an area directly near where exhaust vents exit the building.

Allowances must be made for remote or constricting passageways or where dryers are located at high altitudes or predominantly low pressure areas.

IMPORTANT: Make-up air must be free of dry cleaning solvent fumes. Make-up air that is contaminated by dry cleaning solvent fumes will result in irreparable damage to the motors and other dryer components.

IMPORTANT: Exhaust back pressure measured by a manometer/magnehelic in the exhaust duct must be no less than 0 and must not exceed 0.6 in WC (1.5 mb) with both tumblers operating.

NOTE: It is recommended that exhaust or booster fans not be used in the exhaust ductwork system except where necessary to maintain exhaust back pressure (in the exhaust duct) between zero and 0.6 inch water column with both tumblers operating. Where employed, booster fans must not activate the dryer airflow proving switch (sail switch) when the dryer is not in operation.

When the exhaust ductwork passes through a wall, ceiling, or roof made of combustible materials, the opening must be 2-inches (5.08 cm) larger than the duct (all the way around). The duct must be centered within this opening.

As per the National Fuel Gas Code, “Exhaust ducts for type 2 clothes dryers shall be constructed of sheet metal or other noncombustible material. Such ducts shall be equivalent in strength and corrosion resistance to ducts made of galvanized sheet steel not less than 26 gauge (0.0195-inches [0.50 mm]) thick.”

The ductwork for this appliance must be suitable for the appliance category in accordance with national installation regulations of the country of destination.

NOTE: Component failure due to dry cleaning solvent fumes will void the warranty.

113608- 13 www.adclaundry.com 9

Page 10

Outside Ductwork Protection

To protect the outside end of the horizontal ductwork from the weather, a 90° elbow bent downward should be installed where the exhaust exits the building. If the ductwork travels vertically up through the roof, it should be protected from the weather by using a 180° turn to point the opening downward. In either case, allow at least twice the diameter of the duct between the duct opening and the nearest obstruction (refer to the diagram).

IMPORTANT: Do not use screens, louvers, or caps on the outside opening of the exhaust ductwork.

Single Dryer Venting

IMPORTANT: For extended ductwork runs, the crosssectional area of the ductwork can only be increased to an extent. When the ductwork approaches the maximum limits as noted in this manual, a professional HVAC firm should be consulted for proper venting information.

A = 20 feet (6.10 meters) B = 8-inches (20.32 cm)

A = 20 feet (6.10 meters) B = 10-inches (25.4 cm) C = 8-inches (20.32 cm)

NOTE 1 Opening from combustible materials must be 2-inches (5.08 cm)

larger than the duct (all the way around). The duct must be centered within this opening.

NOTE 2 Distance should be 2 times the diameter of the duct to the nearest

obstruction.

The length of the ductwork from the dryer to the outside exhaust outlet must not exceed 20 feet (6.09 meters). The minimum diameter of this ductwork must be at least 8-inches (20.32 cm) when each pocket/tumbler is vented individually and 10-inches (25.4 cm) when both pockets/tumblers are combined. Including tumbler/dryer elbow connections or elbows used for outside protection from the weather, no more than 3 90° elbows should be used in the exhaust duct run. If more than the equivalent of 3 90° elbows are used, the crosssectional area of the ductwork must be increased.

Multiple Dryer (Common) Venting

If it is not feasible to provide separate exhaust ducts for each dryer, ducts from individual dryers may be channeled into a “common main duct.” The individual ducts should enter the bottom or side of the main duct at an angle not more than 45° in the direction of airflow. The main duct should be tapered, with the diameter increasing before each individual duct is added. The minimum diameter of the individual ductwork must be at least 8-inches (20.32 cm) for individual pockets/tumblers or 10-inches (25.4 cm) for individual dryers.

IMPORTANT: No more than four dryers should be connected to one main common duct.

Page 13

IMPORTANT: Failure to isolate or disconnect the dryer from supply as noted can cause irreparable damage to the gas valve, voiding the warranty.

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 (3.5 kPa) for non-CE dryers or 50 mb for CE dryers.

NOTE: The dryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure test of the gas supply system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa) for nonCE dryers or 50 mb for CE dryers.

Installer within Australia – refer to AS/NZS5601.1 for guidance on gas supply pipe sizing required for this appliance installation.

The size of the main gas supply line (header) will vary depending on the distance this line travels from the gas meter or, in the case of L.P. gas, the supply tank, other gas-operated appliances on the same line, etc. Specific information regarding supply line size should be determined by the gas supplier.

NOTE: Undersized gas supply piping can create a low or inconsistent pressure, which will result in erratic operation of the burner ignition system.

WARNING

Fire or explosion could result due to failure of isolating or disconnecting the gas supply as noted.

NOTE: Undersized gas piping will result in ignition

problems, slow drying, increased use of energy, and can create a safety hazard.

The dryer must be connected to the type of heat/gas indicated on the data label and pressure must be confirmed. If this information does not agree with the type of gas available, do not operate the dryer. Contact the reseller who sold the dryer or contact the manufacturer.

The input ratings shown on the data label are for elevations up to 2,000 feet (610 meters), unless elevation requirements of over 2,000 feet (610 meters) were specified at the time the dryer order was placed with the factory. The adjustment or conversion of dryers in the field for elevations over 2,000 feet (610 meters) is made by changing each burner orifice. If this conversion is necessary, contact the reseller who sold the dryer or contact the manufacturer.

IMPORTANT: If connection to this appliance is made with a flexible hose, it must be suitable for the appliance category in accordance with national installation regulations of the country of destination, and if in doubt the installer must contact the supplier. The manufacturer of this appliance does not recommend the use of flexible gas supply line/ hose. An external gas supply shutoff must be provided.

Water Information _____________________

Before You Start Check Local Codes and Permits

Call your local water company or the proper municipal authority for information regarding local codes.

IMPORTANT: It is your responsibility to have all plumbing connections made by a qualified professional to ensure that the plumbing installation is adequate and conforms to local, state, and federal regulations or codes.

It is the installer’s or owner’s responsibility to see that the required water pressure, pipe size, or connections are provided. The manufacturer assumes no responsibility if the fire suppression system is not connected, installed, or maintained properly.

Installation Water Supply

The fire suppression system must be supplied with a minimum water pipe size of 1/2-inch (12.7 mm) and be provided with 40 psi +/- 20 psi (2.75 bar +/- 1.37 bar) of pressure.

If the rear area of the dryer or the water supply is located in an area where it will be exposed to cold/freezing temperatures, provisions must be made to protect these water lines from freezing.

Optional Manual Bypass

Provisions are made in the dryer’s fire suppression system for the installation of an optional manual bypass. The connections for the manual bypass are made at the “cross” or “four way” fitting located in the outlet supply side of the water solenoid valve. The manual ball cock shutoff valve must be located outside of the dryer at a distance from the dryer where it is easily accessible. The use and connection of this manual bypass is at the option or discretion of the owner.

The water connection for the manual bypass is made to the “cross” or “four way” fitting, which has a 3/8” F.N.P.T. and a coupling must be used to provide the minimum 1/2-inch (12.7 mm) supply (feed) line.

Electrical Requirements

No independent external power source or supply connection is necessary. The 24-volt power to operate the fire suppression system is accomplished internally in the dryer (from the dryer controls).

WARNING

Electrical power must be provided to the dryer at all times. If the main electrical power supply to the dryer is disconnected, the fire suppression system is inoperative!!

WARNING

If the water in the supply line or water solenoid valve freezes, the fire suppression system will be inoperative!!

Water Connections

The water connection is made to the 3/4”-11.5 NH hose adaptor, which is shipped in the tumbler and must be installed to the 1/2” N.P.T. water connection, located at the upper rear of the dryer. A flexible supply line/coupling must be used in an effort to avoid damaging the electric water solenoid valve.

NOTE: The 3/4”-11.5 NH is a standard hose coupling screw thread. It is not to be confused with 3/4” N.P.T. The sealing of an NH connection is made with a washer opposed to the mating threads of an N.P.T. assembly. The 2 thread designs are not compatible.

It is recommended that a filter or strainer be installed in the water supply line.

IMPORTANT: Flexible supply line/coupling must be used. Solenoid valve failure due to hard plumbing connections will void warranty.

The dryer is to be connected to the water mains using a new hose set and the old hose set should not be reused.

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Electrical shock hazard can result in serious injury.

If the water dispensing system is activated do not attempt to operate the dryer.

If the water dispensing system is activated have the dryer inspected by a qualified agency before operating the dryer.

Preparation for Operation / Start-Up _

The following items should be checked before attempting to operate the dryer:

• Read all “CAUTION,” “WARNING,” and “DIRECTION” labels attached to the dryer.

• Check incoming supply voltage to be sure that it is the same as indicated on the data label. In the case of 208 VAC or 230/240 VAC, the supply voltage must match the electric service exactly.

• GAS MODELS – Check to ensure that the dryer is connected to the type of heat/gas indicated on the dryer data label.

• GAS MODELS – Be sure that all gas shutoff valves are in the open position.

• Be sure all back panels (guards) and electric box covers are in place.

• Be sure the service doors are closed and securely in place.

• Be sure the lint door/drawer is securely in place.

113608- 13 www.adclaundry.com 15

Page 16

• Rotate the tumbler (drum) by hand to be sure it moves freely.

• Check bolts, nuts, screws, terminals, and fittings for tightness and security.

• Check that the vent is connected to the dryer and is exhausted to the outdoors.

Preoperational Test ___________________

All dryers are thoroughly tested and inspected before leaving the factory. However, a preoperational test should be performed before the dryer is publicly used. It is possible that adjustments have changed in transit or due to marginal location (installation) conditions. Installer must instruct the user on how to correctly operate the dryer before leaving.

Turn on electric power to the dryer. Refer to the Operating Instructions for starting your particular

model dryer.

Gas Dryers

Open all shutoff valves. When a gas dryer is first started (during initial start-up), it

has a tendency not to ignite on the first ignition attempt. This is because the gas supply piping is filled with air, so it may take a few minutes for the air to be purged from the lines.

NOTE: During the purging period, check to be sure that all gas shutoff valves are open.

A gas pressure test should be taken at the gas valve pressure tap of each dryer to ensure that the water column pressure is correct and consistent.

NOTE: Water column pressure requirements (measured at the pressure tap of the gas valve body) must be verified.

IMPORTANT: In most cases there is no regulator provided in an L.P. dryer. The water column pressure must be regulated at the source (L.P. tank), or an external regulator must be added to each dryer.

Preoperational Instructions __________

IMPORTANT: For more detailed information regarding the microprocessor controller (computer), refer to the microprocessor user’s manual included with the dryer.

Coin Models

Microprocessor Controller (Computer)

When the microprocessor controller (computer) is in the ready state, the L.C.D. screen will display “Ready, Insert $XX.XX (amount) to Start”.

Insert coin(s). Once the correct “Amount to Start” has been inserted, the L.C.D. will display “Select Temperature”.

Select temperature by pressing “HI,” “MED,” or “LO.” The cycle will start and the L.C.D. will display the Dry Cycle selected and the remaining time.

The dryer will continue through the drying and cooling cycles, until the vended time has expired.

NOTE: To stop the dryer, open main door. Continuation of the cycle will resume only after the door has been closed and any one of the three temperature selections is pressed.

Non-Coin Models

Microprocessor Controller (Computer)

The L.E.D. display reads “READY” (no cycle in progress). Press the letter on the keypad corresponding to the cycle

desired (e.g. key “D”). The dryer will then start (i.e. blower, tumbler, and heat). The L.E.D. display will read MANUAL DRYING CYCLE D,

___MIN REMAIN.

NOTE: The dryer can be stopped at any time by pressing the “STOP/CLEAR” key, at this time the dryer will go into a cycle pause. If the “STOP/CLEAR” key is pressed again at this point, the cycle that was in progress will be cancelled and returned to the “READY” state.

Safety Related Circuits

Make a complete operational check of all safety related circuits:

• Door Switch(es)

• Hi-Limit Thermostats

• Sail Switch

Make a complete operational check of all operating controls.

Tumbler Coating

The tumbler is treated with a protective coating. We suggest dampening old garments or cloth material with a solution of water and nonflammable mild detergent and tumbling them in the tumbler to remove this coating.

Microprocessor Programs / Selections

Each microprocessor controller (computer) has been preprogrammed by the factory with the most commonly used parameter (program) selections. If computer program changes are required, refer to the computer programming manual, which was shipped with the dryer.

16 American Dryer Corp. 113608 - 13

When the programmed drying time has expired, the noncoin microprocessor controller (computer) will proceed into the Cool Down Cycle.

Once the Cool Down Cycle begins at the end of the heat cycle, the L.E.D. display will read COOL DOWN TEMP __/ __ MINUTES remaining. At the end of the heat cycle, the dryer will shut off the heat and continue the fan and tumbler until the Cool Down Time or temperature is reached.

Shutdown Instructions ________________

If the dryer is to be shutdown (taken out of service) for a period of time, the following must be performed:

Discontinue power to the dryer either at the external disconnect switch or the circuit breaker.

Discontinue the heat supply: Gas Models – Discontinue the gas supply. Shut off external gas supply shutoff valve. Shut off internal gas supply shutoff valve located in the gas

valve burner area.

Routine Maintenance _________________

Cleaning

A program and/or schedule should be established for periodic inspection, cleaning, and removal of lint from various areas of the dryer, as well as throughout the ductwork system. The frequency of cleaning can best be determined from experience at each location. Maximum operating efficiency is dependent upon proper airflow. The accumulation of lint can restrict this airflow. If the guidelines in this section are met, the dryer will provide many years of efficient, trouble free, and most importantly, safe operation.

WARNING

Lint from most fabrics is highly combustible. The accumulation of lint can create a potential fire hazard. Keep dryer area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.

NOTE: Suggested time intervals shown are for average

usage, which is considered 6 to 8 operational (running) hours per day.

IMPORTANT: Dryer produces combustible lint and must be exhausted to the outdoors. Every 6 months, inspect the exhaust ducting and remove any lint buildup.

Every 6 Months

Inspect and remove lint accumulation in customer furnished exhaust ductwork system and from dryer’s internal exhaust ducting.

NOTE: To remove the lint drawer from the dryer, pull the lint drawer out until it stops. Pivot the two lint drawer locks so that the front half of the lock is up and against the lint drawer frame (refer to figure below). Slide the lint drawer out of the dryer.

The accumulation of lint in the exhaust ductwork can create a potential fire hazard.

Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Check back draft dampers in the exhaust ductwork. Inspect and remove any lint accumulation, which can cause the damper to bind or stick.

A back draft damper that is sticking partially closed can result in slow drying and shutdown of heat circuit safety switches or thermostats.

When cleaning the dryer cabinet(s), avoid using harsh abrasives. A product intended for the cleaning of appliances is recommended.

Suggested Cleaning Schedule Every Third or Fourth Load

Clean the lint screen every third or fourth load. A clogged lint screen will cause poor dryer performance. The lint door/ drawer is located just below the loading door of the dryer. Open the lint door/drawer, brush the lint off the lint screen, and remove the lint. Inspect lint screen and replace if torn.

NOTE: To remove the lint drawer from the dryer first pull the screen out roughly half way and lift the clips on the lower left and right side of the lint drawer up. Now you will be able to pull the lint drawer completely out.

IMPORTANT: The frequency of cleaning the lint screen can best be determined from experience at each location.

Weekly

Clean lint accumulation from lint chamber, thermostat, and microprocessor temperature sensor area.

WARNING

To avoid the hazard of electrical shock, discontinue electrical supply to the dryer.

90 Days

Remove lint from gas valve burner area with a dusting brush or vacuum cleaner attachment.

Clean any lint accumulation in and around the motor(s) casing opening.

Adjustments 7 Days After Installation

and Every 12 Months Thereafter

Inspect bolts, nuts, screws, setscrews, grounding connections and nonpermanent gas connections (unions, shutoff valves, and orifices). Belts should be examined. Cracked or seriously frayed belts should be replaced. Complete an operational check of controls and valves. Complete an operational check of all safety devices (lint door/drawer switch, door switches, sail switch, and hi-limit thermostats).

NOTE: To prevent damage, avoid cleaning and/or touching ignitor/flame-probe assembly.
