Installing CE Gas Drying Tumble
Dryers
General Information
This information is to be used when installing gas
tumble dryers in countries, and/or on gases, different
than the machine’s factory con figuration. Tumble
dryers are supplied from the factory for operation on
Natural Gas 1000 Btu/cu ft. (8914 kcal/m
Gas 2500 Btu/cu ft. (22,250 kcal/m
of GB/IE/PT/ES/IT/GR/LU/CH. To install machines
in any other country, or on any other gas, requires
some level of modification.
Burner orifices, stickers, block-open kits, regulator
springs and other parts needed for conversions are to
be ordered separately.
Models are built in two different configur ations:
Regulated Natural Gas – Burner orifice is sized
for Natural Gas, second family, group H (E) at
20 mbar inlet pressure. Regulator/governor is
operational. Gas valve CAN be field-converted
to a non-regulating type.
Unregulated L.P. (Liquefied Petroleum) Gas –
Burner orifice is sized for L.P., third family,
group 3+ at 28.37 mbar inlet pressure. Regulator/
governor is blocked open. Gas valve CANNOT
be field-converted to a regulating type.
Serial plates supplied from the factory are configured
for the countries of GB/IE/PT/ES/IT/GR/LU/CH.
These instructions pertain to the situations when the
country of use or gas supply is different than that on
the serial plate.
Table 2 describes the different gases that are available
in different CE countries, and how the machines need
to be configured to operate with those gases. In the
CE, there are Natural Gas configurations that do not
allow for ma chine regulation, and L.P. Gas
configurations that must be regulated. For L.P. Gas,
third family B/P at 50 mbar, order Regulated Natural
Gas machines and convert according to Table 2.

A drying tumble dryer produces
combustible lint. To reduce the risk of fire,
the tumble dryer must be exhausted to the
outdoors.
W057R1
T o reduce the risk of fire and accumulation
of combustible gases, DO NOT exhaust
tumble dryer air into a window well, gas
vent, chimney or enclosed, unventilated
area such as an attic wall, ceiling, crawl
space under a building, or concealed
space of a building.
W059R1
WARNING
WARNING
T o reduce the risk of fi re due to increased
static pressure, we do not recommend
installati on of in-l ine secondary lint fil ters
or lint collectors. If secondary systems
are mandated, frequently clean the
system to assure safe operation.
W749
Layout
Whenever possible, install tumble dryers along an
outside wa ll where duct length can be kept to a
minimum, and make-up air can be easily accessed.
Elbows and long vents tend to increase drying time.
Construction must not block the airflow at the rear of
the tumble dryer. Doing so would prevent adequate air
supply to the tumble dryer’s combustion chamber.
Make-Up Air
A tumble dryer is forced air exhausted and requires
provisions for make-up ai r to replace the air exhauste d
by the tumble dryer.
IMPORTANT: Do not obstruct the flow of
combustion and ventilation air.
Make-up air openings shoul d be as clos e to the tumble
dryer(s) as possible.
The required make-up air opening to the outside for
each
tumble dryer is:
110 square inches (709 sq. cm)
for 25 and 30 pound models
144 square inches (928 sq. cm)
for 35 and 55 pound models
Make-up air openings with louvers will restrict
airflow. The opening must be increased to compensate
for area taken up by louvers.
Make-up air openings for a room containing tumble
dryer(s) and/or gas fired hot water heater or other
gravity vented appliances must be increased
sufficiently to prevent downdrafts in an y of the vents
when all tumble dryers are in operation. Do not locate
gravity vented appl iances bet ween tumble dr yer(s) and
make-up air openings. If it is necessary to duct makeup air to the tumble dryer(s), increase the area of the
ductwork by 25% to compensate for any restriction in
air movement.
Venting
IMPORTANT: Installing in-line filters or lint
collectors will cause increased static pressure.
Failure to maint ain the secondary lint sys tem 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.
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 n ot permit the accumulati on
of lint. DO NOT use plastic, thin foi l or Type B ducts rigid metal ducts are recommended . Use exhaust ducts
made of sheet metal or other nonc ombustible mater ial.
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 cl eaned out be fore
installing new tumble dryer(s).

Exhaust Requirements
Improperly sized or assembled ductwork
causes excess back pressure which
results in slow drying, li nt col lecti ng in the
duct, lint blowing back into the room, and
increased fire hazard.
W355
WARNING
NOTE: Exhaust ducts must be c onstruc ted 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 0.0195 inches (0.495 mm) thic k. Local
codes may require additional thickness.
Where the exhaust duct pierces a combustible wall or
ceiling the opening must be si zed per l ocal codes. The
space around the duct may be sealed with
noncombustible material. Refer to Figure 12.
IMPORTANT: For best performance provide an
individual exhaust duct for each tumble dryer. Do
not install a hot 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.
Individual Venting
For maximum efficiency and performance, it is
preferred to exhau st tumble dryer(s) i ndividually to t he
outdoors.
IMPORTANT: At no point may the cross sectional
area of installed venting be less than the cross
sectional area of the exhaust outlet of the tumble
dryer.
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 sp eci fied on the installat ion sti cke r
on the rear of the tumble dryer.
The maximum allowable length venting of the same
diameter as the exhaust thimble 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 equival ent length, t he 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 3 to
determine equivalent venting.
NOTE: The maximum length of a flexible metal
duct must not exceed 7.87 ft. (2.4 m) as required to
meet UL2158, clause 7.3.2A.

With the tumble dryer in operation, airflow at any
point in the duct should be at least 1200 feet per
minute (366 meters per minute) to ensure that lint
remains airborne. If 1200 feet per minute (366 meters
per minute) cannot be maintained, schedule monthly
inspections and cleaning of the ductwork.

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: Inside of duct must be smooth. Do not use
sheet metal screws to join sections.
Consult your local buil ding code for regu lations which
may also apply.
NOTE: Where exhaust duct pierces a combustible
wall or ceiling, the opening must be sized per local
codes.
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 14 orFigure 15. This illustration indicates minimum
diameters, which should be increased if the collector
length exceeds 14 feet (4.3 meters) and two 90°
elbows. The diameter of a round duct must be
increased by 10% for each additional 20 feet
(6.1 meters). Cross sectional area of a rectangular or
square duct must be increased 20% for each additional
20 feet (6.1 meters). Refer to Table 4 or Table 5 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 doe s not exce ed t he maxi mu m
allowable pressure sp eci fied on the installat ion sti cke r
on the rear of tumble dryer. Static back pressure must
be measured with all tumble dryers vented into the
collector o perating.
NOTE: Never connect a tumbl e dr yer duc t at a 90°
angle to the collector duct. Refer to Figure 13.
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 per
minute (366 meters per minute) to ensure that lint
remains airborne. If 1200 feet per minute (366 meters
per minute) cannot be maintained, schedule monthly
inspections and cleaning of the ductwork.

Shut-off valves must be inst alled up stream
of the steam solenoid valve and
downstream of each steam trap so
components can be isolated for
maintenance or emergency purposes.
All components (solenoid valve, traps)
must be supported to minimize loads on
the tumble dryer steam coil connections.
W480R2
WARNING
NOTE: Machines require a constant 80 to 100 psig
(5.62 to 7.03 kg/sq cm) steam service for optimum
operation. The maximum allowable ste am press ure
for use with 60 Hertz or 50 Hertz tumble dryers is
125 psig (8.6 bar). In no case may the pressure
exceed the above value. Drying performance is
significantly reduced at lower steam pressures.
Obtain specific steam service pipe sizes from the
steam syst em supplier o r a qualifie d steam fitter.
Refer to Figure 20 for proper steam pipe
configurations.
To prevent condensate draining from headers to
tumble dryer, piping should have a minimum 12
inch (305 mm) rise above respective header. Do
not make steam connection to header with a
horizontal or downward facing tee or elbow.
Whenever possible, horizontal runs of steam
lines must drain, by gravity, to respective steam
header. Water pockets, or an improperly drained
steam header, will provide wet steam, causing
improper operation of tumble dry er. If pocke ts or
improper drainage c ann ot be eliminated, install a
bypass trap to drain condensate from the low
point in the steam header to the return.
NOTE: To prevent wate r hammeri ng, route return
lines below outlets of steam coils.
Piping Recommendations
Trap each steam coil individually. Always keep
the trap clean and in good working condition.
When tumble dryer is on the end of a line of
equipment, extend header at least 4 feet (1.2 m)
beyond tumble dryer. Install shut-off valve,
union, check valve and bypass trap at end of line.
If gravity return to boiler, omit trap.
Insulate steam supp ly and return l ine for sa fety of
operator and safety while servicing tumble dryer.
Keep tumble dryer in good working condition.
Repair or replace any worn or defective parts.
In both steam supply and steam return line, it is
recommended that each have a pipe union and
shut-off valve. Thi s will enable you to disconnect
the steam connections and service the tumble
dryer while your laundry facility is in operation.
Connect the steam solenoid valve to the related
steam coil inlet connection with nipples, flex
hoses, unions and tee.
Strainers may require cleaning due to materials
from hoses or pipes.
Install vacuum breaker (optional), bucket trap
with built-in strainer and check valve. For
successful operation of tumble dryer, install trap
18 inches (457 mm) below coil an d as near to the
tumble dryer as possible. Inspect trap carefully
for inlet and outlet markings and install
according to trap manufacturer’s instructions. If
steam is gravity returned to boiler, omit trap but
install optional vacuum breaker and check valve
in return line near tumble dryer. Gravity return
requires entire return plumbing be below steam
coil outlet.
Install union and shut- of f valv e in re turn li ne and
The flexible steam hoses connecting the
coil outlet connections and steam traps
must have a minimum of 125 psig
(pounds per square inch gauge) (8.79 kg/
sq. cm.) working pressure. A shut-off
valve must be installed downstream from
each steam trap so the condensate return
line can be isolated in event a steam trap
requires maintenance.
Each steam trap must be supported so
minimum load is exerted on the coi l outlet
connection.
W066
Installing Steam Trap and Making
Condensate Return Connections
The steam trap must be installed and the coil outlet
connections must be connected to the condensate
return lines. The fol lo w ing st eps outline the pr oced ure
for installing the steam trap and connecting the
condensate return lines. Refer to Figure 20 for typical
installations.
1. Use flexible lines between steam inlet solenoid
and steam coils, as well as outlet between steam
coil and traps.
2. If necessary, install a strainer at the end of each
flexible hose.
3. Install a steam trap to each strainer.
IMPORTANT: Steam trap must be installed a
minimum of 18 inches (457 mm) below the steam
coil outlet connection s.
4. Install a shut-off valve t o each steam trap.
5. Connect to the condensate return lines.
6. For steam solenoid valve wiring connections,
refer to Wiring Diagram supplied with tumble
dryer.
Note: Refer to Table 15 for sizing of steam lines. Piping must also be sized accordingly for length of runs, and
number of elbows.

NOTE: The following information is for
models with an SD control suffix only.
Power-Up Mode
When power is applied to the tumble dryer, the IN
USE light flashes factory status information.
Following this, the control goes into READY Mode
(light off) or RUN Mode if power was interrupted
during a cycle (light on , time remaining unchan ged).
Ready Mode
In READY Mode (light off), the control waits for the
vend to be satisfied. When vend is satisfi ed the contr ol
goes into START Mode.
Start Mode
In START Mode (light on), the vend has been satisfied
but the start button has not been pressed. Time
remaining in the cycle wil l not change until the start
button is pressed. When the start button is pressed the
machine goes into RUN Mode.
Run Mode
In RUN Mode (light on), the m achine is running a
cycle and the time remai ning is counting down. When
time remaining counts down to zero, the control goes
into READY Mode.
Setting Dry Time Dipswitches
To change the dry time on the tumble dryer,
combinations of dipswitches can be set on the control.
There are ei ght dipswitc hes on the tu mble dryer
control. The first six switches are used to program the
amount of additional heat time given for each coin
pulse. Th e additiona l drying tim e is added t o the
factory default minimum heat time of one minute. A
valve of 1 to 64 minutes of additional drying time is
available for each coin drop pulse.
Models Through Serial No. 0908xxxxx
cool down time for a total time of 9 minutes for a
coin pulse. For dipswitch settings refer to Table 16.
Models Starting Serial No. 0909xxxxx
The seventh switch is used to program the amount
of additional cool down time. The additional cool
down time is added to the factory default minimum
cool down time of 1 minute . A value of 3 ad diti onal
minutes is available. The control is shipped from
the factory programmed with 1 minu te of mini mum
heat time, preset wi th 7 additi onal minutes of drying
time (dipswitches 1, 2 and 3 in ON position) and 1
minute of minimum co ol down time for a tota l t im e
of 9 minutes for a coin pulse. For dipswitch settings
refer to Table 16.
The eight sw itch is used for the cycle reset. If the
switch is OF F (default), the control w ill save the
time left on a cycl e i n ca se of a power failure . If the
switch is ON, the contro l wi ll clea r th e cycl e and g o
back to Ready Mode if there is a power failure.
The control reads the dipswitch settings at power-up.
The control must be powered down to change the
dipswitch settings.
To change the time for a coin pulse, the desired dry
time dipswitches mus t be s et t o ON position. All other
dipswitches must be in OFF position.
NOTE: The control must be powered down for 10
seconds before the dipswitches can be changed.
Resetting Cycle Time to Zero
(Models Starting Serial No.0909xxxxx)
To remove any cycle time that may have accumulated
on the control during setup, the cycle time on the
control can be reset to zero.
To reset the time, unplug the tumble dryer and set
dipswitch 8 to ON position. Restore power to the
tumble dryer for 10 seconds and once again unplug
tumble dryer. Set dipswitch 8 to OFF position and
restore power to the tumble dryer.
The last two switches are used to program the
amount of additional cool down time. The
additional cool down time is added to the factory
default minimum cool down time of 1 minute. A
value of 1 to 3 additional minutes is available. The
control is shipped from the factory program med
with 1 minute of minimum heat time, preset with 7
additional minutes of drying time (dipswitches 1, 2
and 3 in ON position) and 1 minute of minimum
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
Loading Door Switch
The door switch should be adjusted so the cylinder
stops when door is opened 2 inches (51 mm) plus or
minus 0.25 inch (6 mm). This switch is a normally
open switch and is closed by the hinge cam when the
door is closed. If adjustment is required, refer to
Figure 21 and proceed as follows:
1. Close door and start tumble dryer, slowly open
loading door. Cylinder and heat system should
shut off when door is open 2 i nches (51 mm) plus
or minus 0.25 inch (6 mm).
2. Slowly close the loading door. When door is
2 inches (51 mm) from being fully closed, the
door switch actuating bracket (located on the
door) should depress the button and the switch
arm with an audible “click.”
3. If the actuating bracket does not operate the
switch at the appropriate door closure, bend the
actuating switch arm in or out to achieve proper
actuation.
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 tape 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.
IMPORTANT: Airflow switch vane must remain
closed during operation. If it opens and closes
during the drying cycle, this indicates insufficient
airflow through the tumbl e dryer . If switch remains
open, or pops open and closed during t he c ycl e, t he
heating system will shut off. The cylinder and fan
will continue to operate even though the airflow
switch is ind icating ins ufficient air flow.

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.
The door strike must be adjusted to have sufficient
tension to hold loa ding door close d against force of the
load tumbling against it. There i s proper adjustment of
pull force when 8 to 15 pounds (35.6 N – 66.7 N) is
required to open door.
If adjustment is required, refer to Figure 22 and
proceed as follows:
To adjust, open door, loosen acorn nut, and turn door
strike screw in or out as required. Retighten acorn nut.
