Water Requirements
IMPORTANT: Water must be supplied to the fire suppression system, or the fire suppression system will
not operate as intended.
To ensure the fire suppression system operates properly:
•Water supply requirements: 3/4 inch hose connections providing 15 gpm [57 lpm] minimum flow; Water pressure 20 psi
[138 kPa] minimum, 120 psi [827 kPa] maximum; water temperature 40°F [4.5°C] minimum, 120°F [49°C] maximum
must be maintained at all times.
•Electric power to the tumble dryer must be provided at all
times.
•Perform preventative maintenance checks every month. Refer
to Operation/Maintenance Manual.
NOTE: Water pressure under 20 psi [138 kPa] will
cause low flow at water solenoid valve.
If the rear of the tumble 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.
IMPORTANT: Temperature of the water supply must be
kept between 40°F and 120°F [4.5°C and 49°C]. If water
in the supply line or water solenoid valve freezes, the
fire suppression system will not operate.

clog the screens in the water mixing valve. This is especially important when installing a tumble dryer in a newly constructed or
renovated building. Then connect the hoses to the Y-connector;
connect the Y-connector to the connections at the rear of the tumble dryer.
IMPORTANT: Thread hose couplings onto valve connections finger tight, then turn 1/4 turn with pliers. Do
not cross thread or overtighten couplings.
IMPORTANT: Hoses and other natural rubber parts deteriorate after extended use. Hoses may develop
cracks, blisters or material wear from the temperature
and constant high pressure they are subjected to. All
hoses should be checked on a yearly basis for any visible signs of deterioration. Any hose showing the signs
of deterioration listed above should be replaced immediately. All hoses should be replaced every five years.
Installation
Electrical Requirements
WARNING
Electrical power must be provided to tumble dryer at
all times. The fire suppression system will be inoperative if the main electrical power supply is disconnected.
W690R1
No independent external power source or supply connection is
necessary. Power to operate the fire suppression system is from
the tumble dryer main power supply.
Auxiliary Alarm
The fire suppression system provides an auxiliary output contact
when the system is activated. During tumble dryer installation,
you have the option to connect a separate alarm system to this
auxiliary output. Potential uses of the auxiliary output include,
but are not limited to: (1) sounds an alarm, (2) activates a building sprinkler system, (3) notifies a fire department, etc. Use of the
auxiliary output is not required for the fire suppression system to
operate, but may be used for additional protection.
The connection to the auxiliary output is made through the H-4
header connection inside the fire suppression control box. Refer
to Figure 5 . The relay is rated for 5 Amp, 250VAC max.
NOTE: The auxiliary output is activated during fire suppression system maintenance test sequence. Consider
this fact prior to your system test every month. (Example: If the external system uses the auxiliary output to
call the fire department, inform the fire department before and after the fire suppression system maintenance
test. If the external system uses the auxiliary output to
activate a building sprinkler, disconnect auxiliary output prior to test.)
NOTE: Longer inlet hoses are available (as optional
equipment at extra cost) if the hoses supplied with the
tumble dryer are not long enough for installation. Order
hoses as follows:

Make-Up Air
A tumble dryer is forced air exhausted and requires provisions for
make-up air to replace air exhausted by tumble dryer.
IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct flow of combustion and
ventilation air.

Each Tumble Dryer, in.2 [cm2]
ModelOpening
120 Series360 [2300]
170 Series525 [3400]
200 Series525 [3400]
Make-up air openings with louvers will restrict airflow. The
opening must be increased to compensate for area taken up and
restrictions created by louvers. Contact the louver manufacturer
for the exact specifications.
Make-up air openings in rooms containing tumble dryer(s) and/or
gas fired hot water heater or other gravity vented appliances must
be increased sufficiently to prevent downdrafts in any of the
vents when all tumble dryers are in operation. Do not locate gravity vented appliances between tumble dryer(s) and make-up air
openings. If it is necessary to duct make-up air to tumble dryer(s), increase area of duct work by 25% to compensate for restrictions in air movement.
Whenever possible, install tumble dryers along an outside wall
where duct length can be kept to a minimum, and make-up air
can be easily accessed. Construction must not block the airflow at
the rear of the tumble dryer. Doing so would prevent adequate air
supply to the tumble dryer combustion chamber.
To reduce the risk of fire due to increased static
pressure, we do not recommend installation of inline secondary lint filters or lint collectors. If secondary systems are mandated, frequently clean the
system to assure safe operation.
W749
IMPORTANT: Installing in-line filters or lint collectors
will cause increased static pressure. Failure to maintain the secondary lint system will decrease tumble
dryer efficiency and may void machine warranty.
For maximum efficiency and minimum lint accumulation, tumble
dryer air must be exhausted to the outdoors by the shortest possible route.

Exhaust Requirements
Proper sized exhaust ducts are essential for proper operation. All
elbows should be sweep type. Exhaust ducts must be assembled
so the interior surfaces are smooth, so the joints do not permit the
accumulation of lint. DO NOT use plastic, thin foil or Type B
flexible ducts - rigid metal ducts are recommended. Use exhaust
ducts made of sheet metal or other noncombustible material. DO
NOT use sheet metal screws or fasteners on exhaust pipe joints
which extend into the duct and catch lint. Use of duct tape or
pop-rivets on all seams and joints is recommended, if allowed by
local codes.
Verify that old ducts are thoroughly cleaned out before installing
new tumble dryer(s).
WARNING
Improperly sized or assembled ductwork causes excess back pressure which results in slow drying, lint
collecting in the duct, lint blowing back into the
room, and increased fire hazard.
W355
NOTE: Exhaust ducts must be constructed of sheet
metal or other noncombustible material. Such ducts
must be equivalent in strength and corrosion resistance to ducts made of galvanized sheet steel not less
than 0.02 inches [0.50 mm] thick.
NOTE: Proper venting will ensure that any condensate
is subsequently re-evaporated and discharged.
NOTE: On IEC approved tumble dryers where it may
be required, an exhaust adapter is available to convert to female outlet. Contact local distributor or
manufacturer.
Where the exhaust duct pierces a combustible wall or ceiling, the
opening must be sized per local codes. The space around the duct
may be sealed with noncombustible material. Refer to Figure 7 .
IMPORTANT: For best performance provide an individual exhaust duct for each tumble dryer. Do not install a
gas water heater in a room containing tumble dryers. It
is better to have the water heater in a separate room
with a separate air inlet.

5. Exhaust airflow – maximum length of rigid duct 14 ft. [4.3 m] or 7.9 ft. [2.4 m] of flexible metal duct
Figure 7
NOTE: Do not install wire mesh or screen in exhaust
duct opening to avoid lint build-up or impacting proper
discharge of air from tumble dryers.
NOTE: Where exhaust duct pierces a combustible wall
or ceiling, the opening must be sized per local codes.
NOTE: Inside of duct must be smooth. Do not use
sheet metal screws to join sections.
NOTE: Locate exhaust far enough away from make-up
NOTE: Static back pressure must be measured with the
tumble dryer running.
The maximum allowable length venting is 14 feet [4.3 m] and
two 90° elbows or equivalent. If the equivalent length of a duct
required for an installation exceeds the maximum allowable
equivalent length, the diameter of a round duct must be increased
by 10% for each additional 20 feet [6.1 m]. Cross section area of
a rectangular duct must be increased by 20% for each additional
20 feet [6.1 m]. Refer to Table 1 to determine equivalent venting.

The exhaust duct must be designed so the static back pressure
measured 12 inches [305 mm] from the exhaust outlet does not
exceed the maximum allowable pressure specified in the Specifications and Dimensions Table or on the installation sticker on the
rear of the tumble dryer.
Equivalent Length (meter) = 1.17 x Duct Diameter (mm)

= 42 ft. [12.8 m]
With the tumble dryer in operation, airflow at any point in the
duct should be at least 1200 feet/min. [366 m/min.] to ensure that
lint remains airborne. If 1200 feet/min. [366 m/min.] cannot be
maintained, schedule monthly inspections and cleaning of the
ductwork.
NOTE: The maximum length of a flexible metal duct
must not exceed 7.9 ft. [2.4 m] as required to meet
UL2158, clause 7.3.2A.
round duct must be increased by 10% for each additional 20 feet
[6.1 m]. Cross sectional area of a rectangular or square duct must
be increased 20% for each additional 20 feet [6.1 m]. Refer to
Table 2 to determine equivalent ducting sizing. The collector duct
may be rectangular or square in cross section, as long as the area
is not reduced. Provisions MUST be made for lint removal and
cleaning of the collector duct.
The vent collector system must be designed so the static back
pressure measured 12 inches [305 mm] from the exhaust outlet
does not exceed the maximum allowable pressure specified in the
Specifications and Dimensions Table or on the installation sticker
on the rear of tumble dryer. Static back pressure must be measured with all tumble dryers vented into the collector operating.
NOTE: Never connect a tumble dryer duct at a 90° angle to the collector duct. Refer to Figure 8 . Doing so
will cause excessive back pressure, resulting in poor
performance. Never connect two tumble dryer exhaust
ducts directly across from each other at the point of
entry to the collector duct.
With the tumble dryer in operation, airflow at any point in the
duct should be at least 1200 feet/min. [366 m/min.] to ensure that
lint remains airborne. If 1200 feet/min. [366 m/min.] cannot be
maintained, schedule monthly inspections and cleaning of the
ductwork.
Manifold Venting
While it is preferable to exhaust tumble dryers individually to the
outdoors, a main collector duct may be used if it is sized according to Figure 9 and Figure 10 . This illustration indicates mini-
mum diameters, and should be increased if the collector length
exceeds 14 feet [4.3 m] and two 90° elbows. The diameter of a

Gas Burner Air Shutter
NOTE: Air inlet shutters on the burner must be adjusted so sufficient air is metered into the system for proper combustion and maximum efficiency. Before adjusting the inlet shutters be sure that all lint is removed
from lint compartments and lint screen.
Air shutter adjustments will vary from location to location and
will depend on the vent system, number of units installed, makeup air and line gas pressure. Opening the shutter increases the
amount of primary air supplied to the burner while closing the
shutter decreases the primary air supply. Adjust air shutter as follows:
Adjustments
Figure 18
2. Start the tumble dryer and check the flame pattern. If the
flame pattern is straight up, insufficient air is flowing through
the tumble dryer. A flame pattern that flares to the right and
left indicates no air is flowing through the tumble dryer. Correct air and gas mixture is indicated if the flame pattern is primarily blue, with small yellow tips, and bends to the right of
the heater section. Too little air is indicated if the flame if yellow, lazy and smokey. (A whistling sound from burner could
also be caused by an improper air shutter setting.)
3. To adjust the air shutter, loosen air inlet shutter adjusting
screw.
4. Open or close air shutter as necessary to obtain proper flame
intensity.
5. After air shutter is adjusted for proper flame, tighten air shutter adjusting screw securely.
The tumble dryer must not be operated if the airflow
switch does not operate properly. Faulty airflow
switch operation may cause an explosive gas mixture to collect in the tumble dryer.
W072R1
IMPORTANT: Airflow switch vane must remain closed
during operation. If it opens and closes during the drying cycle, this indicates insufficient airflow through the
tumble dryer. If switch remains open, or pops open and
closed during the cycle, the heating system will shut
off. The cylinder and fan will continue to operate even
though the airflow switch is indicating insufficient airflow.
NOTE: To properly mount the airflow switch bracket, or
in case of a load not drying, the airflow switch bracket
may need to be checked for proper alignment. Be sure
the locator pins are securely in their respective holes
before tightening the bracket mounting screws. This
will assure proper alignment of the airflow switch arm
in the channel of the airflow switch bracket and prevent
binding of the arm.

Airflow Switch
The airflow switch is set at the factory for proper operation. No
adjustment necessary.
The airflow switch operation may be affected by shipping wire
tie still in place, lack of make-up air, or an obstruction in the exhaust duct. These should be checked and the required corrective
action taken.
Loading Door Switch
Loading door switch is factory preset, no field adjustment is necessary.
Loading Door Catch (120 and 170 Ser-
ies Models)
The door catch must be adjusted to have sufficient tension to hold
loading door closed against force of load tumbling against it.
Proper adjustment is when 8-15 pounds [35.6N - 66.7N] pull is
required to open door.
If adjustment is required, refer to Figure 20 and proceed as follows:
The loading door strike must be adjusted to have sufficient tension to hold loading door closed against force of load tumbling
against it. Proper adjustment is when 8-15 pounds [35.6N -
66.7N] pull is required to open door.
If adjustment is required, refer to Figure 21 and proceed as follows:
1. Open door.
2. Loosen adjustment screws.
3. Position strike for desired magnet engagement.
4. Retighten screws.

Manual Resettable Thermostat
NOTE: The manual resettable thermostat is located on
rear panel below drive motor.
If thermostat trips, contact a qualified service technician.
Belt Drive
The drive assembly consists of a motor, four pulleys, two belts,
idler housing, upper belt adjustment jack eyebolt/tube, lower belt
adjustment eyebolt and a spring.
The pulley diameters are sized to produce a cylinder speed of
37-39 RPM for 120 series models or 29-31 RPM for 170 and 200
series models.
The idler housing pulleys are used for speed reduction as well as
a means of adjusting belt tension. The idler housing is attached to
the cabinet rear center braces. The cabinet rear center braces have
vertically slotted holes allowing up and down movement of the
idler housing for belt adjustment.
IMPORTANT: Grasp eyebolt neck to prevent spring rotation during nut rotation.
4. Rotate right jamnut clockwise against the lower spring tension plate in order to lock it into place, restraining the left nut
from turning. Recheck belt tension.
NOTE: Proper tensions for new belts are measured
with a Belt Tension Frequency Gauge.
Belts should not slip or make any noise when starting up under
normal load.
