Exhaust Requirements _________________
Do not use a nonmetal flexible vent or a metal vent that is smaller than 4-inches (10.2 cm) in diameter or exhaust hoods with magnetic latches.
The dryer shall not be exhausted into any gas vent, chimney, wall, ceiling or concealed space of a building.
Do not install flexible vent in enclosed walls, ceilings, or floors.
Important
Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
!
Fresh Air Supply Requirements ________
The air supply (make-up air) must be given careful consideration to ensure proper performance of each dryer. An unrestricted source of air is necessary for each dryer. As a general rule, an unrestricted air entrance from the outdoors (atmosphere) of a minimum of 1/3 square feet (0.031 square meters) is required for each dryer. If registers or louvers are installed over the openings, then the area must be increased. 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 the dryers. The dryer must be installed with provisions for adequate combustion and make-up air supply.
EXAMPLE: For a bank of eight (8) dryers, two (2)
unrestricted openings measuring 1 foot by 1 foot (0.31 meters by 0.31 meters), (1 square foot [0.93 square meters]) are acceptable.
Exhaust your dryer to the outside. Moisture and lint indoors may cause:
• Lint to gather around the dryer where it can be fuel for a fire.
• Moisture damage to woodwork, furniture, paint, wallpaper, carpet, etc.
• Housecleaning problems and health problems.
A 4-inch (10.2 cm) diameter vent is required. A rigid or flexible metal vent must be used. Do not use a plastic or a foil covered vent.
Use a heavy metal vent. Do not use a plastic or metal foil vent. A rigid metal vent is recommended to prevent crushing and kinking. A flexible metal vent must be fully extended and supported when the dryer is in its final position. Remove excess flexible vent to avoid sagging and kinking that may result in reduced airflow.
If using an existing exhaust system, clean lint from entire length of system. Make sure exhaust hood is not plugged with lint. Replace any vinyl or metallized plastic foil vent with rigid metal or flexible metal vent.
Use duct tape to seal all joints. Do not use screws or other fastening devices that extend into the interior of the vent to secure vent.
Service check: Back pressure in any exhaust system used must be no less than 0 and must not exceed 0.6 inches (1.49 mb) water column (W.C.) measured with an incline manometer at the point that exhaust vent connects to the dryer.
Important
It is recommended that exhaust or booster fans not

Horizontal Single Dryer Venting 4-inch (10.16 cm) Ducting
Vertical Single Dryer Venting
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 the flow and should be spaced at least 27-inches (68.58 cm) apart.
Important
When exhausted into a multiple (common) exhaust
line, a back draft damper must be installed at each
!
dryer duct.
No more than four (4) dryers should be connected to one (1) main common duct.
The main duct may be any shape or cross-sectional area, as long as the minimum cross section area is provided. The illustration above shows the minimum cross section area for multiple dryer round or square venting. These figures must be increased 10 square inches (64.52 square centimeters) when rectangular main ducting is used, and the ratio of duct width to depth should not be greater than 3-1/2 to 1. In calculating ductwork size, the cross-sectional area of a square or rectangular duct must be increased twenty percent (20%) for each additional 20 feet (6.09 meters). The diameter of a round exhaust must be increased ten percent (10%) for each additional 20 feet (6.09 meters). Each additional 90° elbow is equivalent to an additional 20 feet (6.1 meters) and each 45° elbow is equivalent to an additional 10 feet (3.0 meters).
Warning
Dryer must never be operated without the lint filter/
screen in place, even if an external lint collection
!
system is used.
Important
It is recommended that exhaust or booster fans not
be used in the exhaust ductwork system.

The following items should be checked before attempting to operate the dryer:
dryers is required at the gas valve pressure tap of
• 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 dryer data label.
• Gas Models – check to ensure that the dryer is connected to the type of heat/gas indicated on the dryer data label.
• Gas and Electric Models – the sail switch damper assembly was installed and adjusted at the factory prior to shipping. However, each sail switch adjustment must be checked to ensure that this important safety control is functioning.
• Check bolts, nuts, screws, terminals, and fittings for tightness.
• Gas Models – be sure that all gas shutoff valves are in the open position.
• Check that the back guard panel and the electrical box cover have been replaced.
• Check the lint drawer/tray to ensure that it is closed and secured in place.
• Rotate the basket (tumbler/drum) by hand to be sure it moves freely.
• Check terminals and fittings for security.
Preoperational Tests ___________________
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.
Turn on electric power to the dryer. Refer to the Operating Instructions for starting your particular
model dryer.
Gas Models Only
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.

S.A.F.E. System Theory of Operation __
While the dryer is in an idle state or 20-seconds after the heat turns off, the Phase 7 control monitors the S.A.F.E. system probe located in the top of the basket (tumbler) chamber and records the minimum temperature. If the minimum recorded S.A.F.E. system probe temperature is greater than 120° F (48° C) and the control detects a 50° rise in temperature, this will be the trip point and the S.A.F.E. system routine will activate.
While a drying cycle is in process and the heat has turned on at least once, the Phase 7 control monitors the exhaust temperature transducer. If the drying cycle temperature set point is set greater than 160° F (71° C) and the control detects an exhaust temperature rise 25° F greater than set point, this will be the trip point and the S.A.F.E. system routine will activate. If set point is below 160° F (71° C) the trip point will be 185° F (85° C).
Once the S.A.F.E. system routine is activated, the control will display “S.A.F.E. System Activated” and water will be injected into the basket (tumbler) chamber. Anytime water is being injected into the basket (tumbler); the basket (tumbler) drive will turn the load for 1-second every 15-seconds. This process will continue for a minimum of 2 minutes. After 2 minutes has elapsed, the control will check if the temperature remained above trip point, if so water will remain on. The control will continue to check if temperature is above trip point every 30-seconds. If the water has been on for a constant 10 minutes, the water will be turned off regardless of the temperature and the control will display “S.A.F.E. Was Activated.” If the temperature has dropped below trip point, the control will turn off the water prior to 10 minutes.
