DM510 - A Brief Description
The Dryer Master DM510 from DMSI is the ideal addition to your new or existing continuous flow grain dryer. Simple and easy to operate, the DM510 uses advanced process control to automatically adjust your dryer discharge rate, drying grain more consistently and closer to your target moisture level.
The DM510 is a computer control system that controls grain drying. The standard configuration of the system comes complete with an operator panel, sensors to measure the grain moisture and temperature entering and exiting the dryer, a drying air temperature monitor, an outlet moisture sensor with rotary feed, and remote access via internet capability. An optional printer is also available. The system uses this and other information, to set the optimum grain discharge rate to control the moisture of the product within a narrow tolerance.
The DM510 is capable of being monitored and controlled remotely through a web browser on your smart phone, tablet or desktop PC through DM-Mobile. Simply connect the DM510 to an internet enabled router and then access many of the DM510 functions through your web browser at my.dryermaster.com. DM-Mobile can also be configured to provide you with text on alarm messages so that you can be aware of an issue without having to be at the DM510 panel.
The DM510 provides quick payback by reducing over and under drying, resulting in increased yields, energy savings, and providing a better quality dried product.
DM510 - How it Works
As an operator you know that grain drying is a very difficult process to control. You know that your dryer dries faster or slower depending upon drying conditions. Ambient air temperature, wind speed and direction, humidity, time of day, the variety of the grain being dried, and of course, the moisture of the grain all can affect dryer operation.
The Dryer Master DM510 uses sophisticated on-line moisture measurement and moisture control technology to overcome these difficulties. The DM510 uses specially designed on-line moisture and temperature sensors located at the inlet and the outlet of the dryer. These sensors provide continuous moisture and temperature readings to the computer located in the DM510 control panel.
The computer uses this information to build an operating model of your dryer. As inlet moistures and drying conditions change throughout the day the DM510 continuously calculates and automatically adjusts to the optimum discharge rate for current conditions.
The DM510 has three important advantages. First, in all modes, the systems is always monitoring the dryer. Second, in automatic mode, it continually watches the dryer. It doesn’t have to help unload trucks, load trains, or do other jobs around the elevator. The dryer receives its full attention. Third, it has the benefit of continuous moisture information from both the inlet and the outlet of the dryer, giving it a complete picture of all the grain in the dryer, and the grain exiting the dryer.
With this information, the DM510 does not have to wait to react to changes in the outlet moisture. It is able to adjust the discharge rate as the incoming moisture changes. For example, as wetter grain comes into the dryer, the DM510 begins to slow down the discharge rate just as the wetter grain reaches the hot zone.

System Components
The DM510 system includes the following components:
• DM510 control panel (with remote I/O option)
• Inlet and outlet grain moisture sensors with integral product temperature sensors
• Calibration push button
• Outlet moisture sensor chute with rotary feed (bypass or inline version)
• Drying air temperature sensor or signal converter (to access dryer’s temp reading)
• Internet connectivity capability (or optional modem connectivity)
An optional printer for continuous reporting of dryer operation and results is also available.
DM510 Control Panel including I/O:
The DM510 is a computer system complete with user interface keypad and the display screen, I/O system and the capability to provide real time information through an internet connection to a network capable device. The DM510 Control Panel is typically installed in a location near the dryer where the operators spend much of their time. The I/O can be located remotely using a wired connection for short distances or a wireless connection for longer distances (requires optional wireless modems). See I/O Panel Installation page 37
Printer (optional):
The DM510 uses the printer to provide reports such as: continuous averages, hourly and daily reports, and bin summaries. These are tools that can be used to manage the total drying process.
Inlet Moisture and Temperature Sensor:
The inlet moisture and temperature sensor is installed in the flow of the product before it enters the drying zone (hot zone) of the dryer, typically in the garner or holding bin above the hot zone.
Outlet Moisture and Temperature Sensor & Chute with Rotary Feed:
The outlet moisture and temperature sensor is typically installed in a sensor chute with rotary feed (either the bypass or inline version) which is placed after the product flow exits the dryer.
Calibration Push Button:
The calibration button is installed near the operator sampling point for product exiting the dryer, in close proximity to the outlet moisture sensor.
Drying Air Temperature Sensor or Temperature Signal Converter:
A temperature sensor is installed in the heating chamber in close proximity to the dryer’s existing drying air temperature sensor to monitor the drying air temperature. Some systems will instead use a temperature signal converter to use the dryer’s temperature reading.
Internet Connectivity Capability:
Connect your DM510 to an internet enabled router or wireless hotspot (via Ethernet cable) and you access your system remotely via a desktop PC, smartphone or tablet. Simply use your browser to go to my.dryermaster.com and login using the login information that came with your system.

Installation Checklist
The following checklist will help to ensure all steps in the installation process are covered. Once you have completed all the items on this checklist you can move on to Commissioning the DM510. There is a dedicated DM510 Commissioning Manual (included with the manual package) to guide you through the process, but as always you can call the Dryer Master Support Center with any questions. There are some portions of the Commissioning process that can be handled more easily over the phone, so do not hesitate to call us.
DM510 Control Panel
The DM510 control panel is mounted in a “NON HAZARDOUS” environment. The ambient
temperature during operation should be maintained between 40° and 105°F (5° to 41°C). The system can function outside of these limits but it may impact product longevity. The system requires an 110VAC or 220VAC 50-60HZ grounded circuit. A circuit with isolated ground in conjunction with approved surge protection equipment will afford extra surge and lightning protection. Surge protection and/or a UPS if power is unstable may be of benefit.
The DM510 control panel is to be located in the control room from where the operators currently control operations. For viewing ease it is recommended that the DM510 control panel be mounted so that the bottom of its display screen is at or slightly above average eye level.
Meets environmental requirements Meets electrical requirements Panel installed as described in a NON HAZARDOUS environment
Dryer Master I/O system
The Dryer Master I/O system can be left in the DM510 panel or it can be separately mounted in a “NON HAZARDOUS” environment. The I/O board can be installed in the dryer control panel or an electrical enclosure in close proximity to the dryer control panel. The I/O system will function throughout the standard industrial temperature range of 0° to 140°F (-20° to 60°C). The I/O system is powered from the DM510 panel and requires no external power source.
Meets environmental requirements Panel installed as described in a NON HAZARDOUS environment For the wireless I/O option only, plug in the supplied power supply to power the
. wireless modem and the Dryer Master I/O

Inlet Moisture Sensor
The inlet sensor is to be mounted in a location that will provide a representative sample of grain entering the dryer. It should be located where there will be a regular flow of product past the sensor (at no faster than 1 inch per second – slower is fine), and in an area where debris is unlikely to accumulate.
Communication with DMSI Engineering personnel could result in revisions to the installation method if readings are not representative. DMSI Project Engineering can advise you of modifications to the required installation.
Installed the inlet moisture sensor as specified Connected the inlet moisture sensor as specified Installed in a Non Hazardous location
Outlet Moisture Sensor
The sensor is to be mounted in a chute that will provide product flow at a rate of approximately 0.5" to 1" (1.25cm to 2.5cm) per second. The Dryer Master inline and bypass chutes with rotary feed are designed to meet these requirements. If an alternate configuration is used specifications for the chute dimensions and product conveyance methods are provided in separate mechanical drawings.
Communication with DMSI Engineering personnel could result in revisions to the installation method if the flow rate is not within specification. DMSI Project Engineering can advise you of modifications to the required installation.
Installed the sensor chute as specified Installed the outlet moisture sensor as specified Connected the outlet moisture sensor as specified Installed in a Non Hazardous location
Sample Station (calibration push button)
The Sample Station consists of a Normally Open Push Button Contact and a 24 VDC LED Lamp. The Sample Station should be placed in close proximity to the outlet Moisture Sensor. The purpose of the station is to signal the DM510 control panel that a moisture sample has been taken and to tell the operator for how long to take a sample.
Installed the Sample Station (Push Button and 24VDC Lamp) as specified Connected the Sample Station (Push Button and 24VDC Lamp) as specified
Air Plenum Temperature probe (Temperature Option A)

Dryer Master Moisture Sensors
Sensor Types
The vast majority of new Dryer Master DM510 installations use the Fin Type moisture sensor at both the inlet and outlet to the dryer. The two sensors provided with a standard system are identical and can be used interchangeably. In some unique situations, a Round-Cell sensor design may be used in place of the fin sensor either at the inlet or the outlet.
Note:
It is important that you read all of the directions before proceeding with the installation.
The correct operation of the sensor and the Dryer Master depends on the correct
installation of the moisture sensors.
Caution!
Welding on or welding near the sensor while it is mounted will invalidate the warranty
Figure 4 - Fin Type moisture sensor (front and back views)
Page 23
Page | 23
Inlet Moisture Sensor Installation
Sensor Location
The Inlet Sensor should be placed vertically at the inlet to the grain dryer (in or near the garner bin). See Figure 7 - Alternate location for inlet sensor on column dryer and Figure 8 - Round dryer installation location for details.
There are two conditions that must be met for the Inlet Sensor to operate correctly.
1. The Inlet Sensor must be completely covered by compacted grain at all times.
2. The Inlet Sensor must also receive a good (representative) sample of the grain.
These two conditions are usually met if the Inlet Sensor is located near the centre of the longest vertical side of the garner bin.
However DO NOT locate the Inlet Sensor directly under the inlet spout. Grain that is
erratically compacted will dynamically change the relative readings of the inlet sensor contributing to false readings. Inaccurate or false readings of the inlet sensor will adversely affect control of the dryer.
Installation should minimize the probability of steam reaching the sensor. Install the Inlet Sensor at a level higher above the hot zone than the width of the hot zone. For example if the hot zone is a foot wide leave at least a foot between the hot zone and the sensor. If this is not done, the static pressure in the hot zone can force moisture-laden air past the sensor. Due to the cold state of the sensor, moisture will condense from the air onto the sensor resulting in false readings. Inaccurate or false readings of the inlet sensor will adversely affect control of the dryer.
If the sensor is placed in a location such that it will get an excess of fines or trash this will contribute to errors or false readings. Inaccurate or false readings of the inlet sensor will adversely affect control of the dryer.
Install the Inlet Sensor in a place where water cannot run down the surface of the sensor. In the dryers which have an open top allowing rain to penetrate the grain (or excessive cold) will cause condensation to form on a fin sensor. The sensor needs to be moved to the surge hopper or other
more appropriate location.
Figure 5 - Sample inlet sensor installation on a Grain Handler dryer
Page 24
Page | 24
Sensor Installation
1. Refer to Figure 7 - Alternate location for inlet sensor on column dryer and Figure 8 - Round
dryer installation location.
2. Cut an opening through the side of the garner bin the same size or slightly larger than the
opening in the mounting plate (Figure 6 - Sensor and mounting plate dimensions) making sure that the completed installation will be level.
3. Weld or bolt the mounting frame to the outside wall of the garner bin to cover the hole such
that the sensor can be mounted through the plate without binding.
4. Bolt the Sensor to the mounting frame. Make sure that the sensor is mounted such that the
wire entry will be down.
If you are unsure of where to locate the sensor contact the Dryer Master Support Center.
It is preferable to do it right the first time.
Note:
Locate the sensor where it is in constant contact with the compacted grain. If the sensor is not
in constant contact with compacted grain and becomes empty or becomes partially empty,
the DM510 will trigger an alarm condition. The DM510 may (as a result of the alarm)
relinquish automatic control.

Outlet Moisture Sensor Installation
Sensor Types
The standard fin type outlet moisture sensor for new installations is identical to the inlet fin sensor. The two sensors are typically interchangeable.
The sensor is designed to fit into a 6" X 6" chute. It will also fit the standard GSI/Zimmerman chute (with only a slight modification to the chute).
Dryer Master also offers a Round Cell moisture sensor with a restrictor plate (see Appendix 4. Figure 59 ­Round Cell Sensor) This may be appropriate for some installations. If you are in doubt about which sensor to use call us at the Dryer Master Support Center and we will go over the pros and cons of each option with you.
There are a number of installation requirements which are outlined below. If at any time you have questions about the preferred option for installing the outlet sensor contact us at the Dryer Master Support Center.
Outlet sensor mounting requirements:
Dryer Master offers 2 versions of its outlet sensor chute with a rotary feed. The two versions (“Bypass” and “In-line”) are explained in Appendix 3. The use of one of these chute options is strongly recommended and will greatly simplify the installation.
Any outlet sensor installation needs to fulfill a number of requirements as outlined below:
1. The chute needs to hold a compacted yet flowing sample of grain (minimum possible airspace between kernels)
2. Sample size needs to be large enough to have statistical relevance
3. Sensor needs to be mounted in a vertical position to minimize the influence of fines on the
moisture reading
4. Operator must be able to physically confirm the product flow through the sensor chute
5. Operator needs to be able to sample product at the sensor for calibration purposes
6. Operator should be able to shut the flow of grain off in the sensor chute to service the sensor
and/or clear debris
7. Operator should use a rotary metering device to restrict/meter flow or have several restrictor plates with varying hole sizes to be able to adjust the flow rate to accommodate changing kernel size or a change in commodity
8. Flow rate must be fast enough to keep the measured sample relevant yet slow enough to ensure product compaction and minimize mechanical wear (less than 1” per second)
9. When using restrictor plates to adjust the flow rate the restrictor plate should be 6+ inches below the sensor fin to minimize the fines building up into the sensing area and influencing the moisture readings
10. Sensor chute must remain completely full and overflowing to give consistent readings, even at the lowest unload rate expected in use.

Outlet sensor installation options
Option 1 By-Pass Method – Details
With the bypass method, a portion of the grain leaving the dryer is bypassed from the main stream to where it passes by the sensor and then is returned to the main flow.
The Dryer Master rotary feed bypass chute accomplishes this. The chute requires 16.5 inches, 42 cm of vertical space. For this type of installation see Appendix 3, Option1. The Dryer Master chute flows approximately 50 - 75 cubic feet, 1.4 – 2.1 cubic meters per hour.
Install the chute so that there will be a continuous flow of grain and the chute will remain full.
Ensure that the grain flowing through the chute is a good representative sample of the grain to be tested. Place the sensor in a location where it will NOT get an excess of fines or trash as this will
Figure 9 – Outlet Fin in chute photo
Warning:
Welding on or near the sensor while it is mounted will invalidate the warranty
Note:
The installation of the outlet sensor is critical. A poorly installed outlet sensor will reduce the
effectiveness of the DM510. Locate the sensor where it will stay full. If the sensor becomes empty,
incorrect moisture will be recorded, resulting in poor control of the drying process.
Page 29
Page | 29
contribute to errors or false readings. Inaccurate or false readings of the outlet sensor will adversely affect control of the dryer by the Dryer Master.
Locate the Sensor so it can be safely accessed for cleaning and taking grain samples.
Installation Procedure
1. Remove the Outlet Sensor from the 6” square chute before welding or bolting the chute in
place.
2. Make the necessary changes to the discharge system of the dryer so that there is room for
the chute; rotary feeder or slide restrictor.
3. Install the shut off slide gate above the sensor to shut off the flow to the sensor to allow
cleaning out and or servicing the sensor.
4. Install bars across the opening to the sensor in the direction of grain flow. This will prevent
large objects from entering the sensor.
5. Mount the chute in a vertical position.
6. Bolt the fin sensor back into the chute.
Do not cut holes in the Outlet Sensor. Use only the existing wire entry location. Entry at any other location voids the warranty.
Ensure the sensor chute empties completely when shutting down. Make electrical connections such that the chute power is tied to the elevator control circuit. The elevator is typically the last item shut down in the shutdown sequence.

Option 1a - Bypass Using Sampling Auger
The moisture sensor is installed in a by-pass where a portion of the grain is directed through the bypass. The grains flows through the sensor and then back into the system (see Figure 12 - By-Pass auger installation Error! Reference source not found.for more details). This method is used when
there is less than 18” of vertical space at the bottom of the dryer. The fin sensor is provided with a
square chute. A small slow moving auger restricts the flow of grain so the chute remains full of compacted grain at all times.
1. Install the chute so that there will be a continuous flow of grain.
2. Make sure that the chute will always be full of grain.
3. Make sure that the grain flowing through the chute is a good representative sample of the
grain to be tested. Placing the sensor in a location where it will NOT get an excess of fines or trash which will contribute to errors or false readings. Inaccurate or false readings of the outlet sensor will adversely affect control of the dryer by the Dryer Master.
4. The flow of grain through the chute should be approximately ½ inches per second or about
50 cubic feet, 1.4 cubic meters per hour.
5. Locate the Outlet Sensor so it can be safely accessed for cleaning out, and taking grain
samples.
A four-inch sampling auger is recommended. Several other options are available; see Table 1: Gear reductions for metering devices. All gear reductions given are based on a chute that is six inches by six inches. For the best flow characteristics, it is recommended that the auger be opened to the full width of the chute. This will also reduce transition complexity. Verify the auger flow and gear box required. The table is an approximate guideline.
Installation Procedure
1. Remove the Outlet Sensor from the 6” square chute while installing and welding the
transitions
2. Make the necessary changes to the discharge system of the dryer so that there is room for
the chute, sampling auger and slide gate.
3. Install the slide gate above the sensor to shut off the flow to the sensor to allow cleaning out
and or servicing the sensor
4. Install the Chute and Sensor so the operator can inspect and clean the sensor. It must be
possible to do these tasks easily and safely while the dryer is operating.
5. Install bars across the opening to the sensor in the direction of grain flow. This will prevent
large objects from entering the sensor.
6. Mount the chute in a vertical position.
7. Install the sampling auger as horizontally as possible.
8. For greatest sensitivity and accuracy, it is recommended to bolt the chute such that the fin of
the sensor will be oriented in the same direction as the shaft of the auger.

Option 2 In-Line Method – Details
The Dryer Master In-Line chute with rotary feed is designed so that the moisture of the grain can be measured without having to divert a portion into a bypass. (see Appendix 3, Option 2.) Some dryer manufacturers can supply a chute that will fit under their dryer to accommodate an outlet fin sensor to get a similar effect. A similar type device can be fabricated on site.
A moisture sensor is installed in a 6” x 6” chute mounted within a larger chute that handles the full flow of grain from the dryer. The flow through the sensor chute is restricted and metered using
either a rotary feed or a slide gate restrictor. The grain that does not flow through the sensor chute flows past in the main part of the chute. This method requires a minimum of 16” of vertical space not including necessary transitions. Normally the sensor is installed under the dryer between it and the dry grain auger or drag.
Install the Chute and Sensor in a continuous flow of grain and where the sensor will remain full.
Install the Chute and Sensor so the operator can inspect and clean the sensor. It must be possible
to do these tasks easily and safely while the dryer is operating.
Installation Procedure
Note for the Dryer Master In-Line chute with rotary feed additional photos are in Appendix 3, Option 2.
1. If necessary, adjust the discharge system of the dryer so that a chute 16” high by (minimum)
16” square can be installed (Size will depend upon bushels being discharged).
2. Make sure that the centre of the flow of grain is directed at the Sensor’s location and will
keep the sensor full.
3. Weld or Bolt the sensor chute to the bottom of the dryer.
4. Create a transition between the bottom of the chute and the dry grain drag or auger.
5. Bolt the Sensor to the outside surface of the frame. See Figure 17 – for an example.
6. An access is provided for the operator to safely inspect and clean out the sensor and take
moisture samples without turning off the dryer discharge.

DM510 Control Panel Installation
Control Panel Location
The DM510 Control Panel must be located in a reasonably well-controlled and secure environment. Use the following guidelines to locate the best position for the DM510 Control Panel where:
• It is protected from the weather. (And is as free from dust as possible if the optional printer
is used).
• The ambient temperature during operation will be between 40° and 105°F (5° and 40°C).
• Someone can hear the alarm buzzer.
• The bottom of the display screen (LCD) is slightly above average eye level.
• Locate DM510 in a room where the dryer operators will spend most of their time or will be
processing moisture samples.
• If the DM510 is mounted against an uninsulated outside wall, provide ½" (12.7mm) insulating
panel (wood).
Control Panel Installation
Refer to Figure 21 – DM510 Control Panel Dimensions while doing the following:
1. Drill all holes and insert ¼" (6mm) bolts with washers into bottom holes. Leave space
between washer and wall
2. Slide cut-out slots in bottom mounting tab on Controller under washers
3. Align top holes. Insert screws and washers in top mounting tab, level the box and tighten all
screws

I/O Panel Installation
The DM510 may be operated with the I/O panel remotely located. Mounting the DM510 I/O panel in a remote enclosure creates a remote I/O panel.
Mount this panel in such a way that:
• The wiring from the sensors can be easily completed without discomfort.
• It is protected from the weather in a NEMA 4 box or in the dryer control panel.
• The ambient temperature during operation will be between 40° and 105°F (5° and 40°C).
• The I/O panel is away from high potential voltage and all unprotected Multi-cables coming in
from remote sensors are not near high power cable areas. Or it is physically protected with metal shielding.
• Wiring is done in accordance with local electrical codes and environmental conditions.
Single nut fastener to remove I/O panel
I/O system power and communication cable
Figure 19 - I/O assembly removal
Page 38
Page | 38
The cables required between the DM510 and I/O panel are 2 Multi-cables. One for communications, one for a spare and a minimum 16-gauge green ground wire from the DM510 chassis ground to the DM510 I/O Panel chassis ground.
The communication cable is created by removing the connections from the cable present in the DM510, noting the positions. Note the location of the individual conductors (see Figure 19 - I/O assembly removal) Remove the end connectors. Cut two Multi-cables that are long enough to reach between the DM510 and the location of the I/O panel. One will replace the current cable and the second will be a spare. Mark them to identify them from each other. Pull these cables along with a 16 awg. Green ground wire into the conduit between the DM510 and the I/O panel. Rewire the end connectors as noted below and connect them to the noted location as they were connected in the original configuration. See Figure 23 – Communications Wire Layout for details.
Conduit required to house the cables between the DM510 and the I/O panel is ½”. The wire entry points in the bottom of the DM510 are sized for a ¾ “ conduit.

Power and Grounding Requirements
DM510 Control Panel
Power
The DM510 can be powered with 85 to 264 VAC, 47 to 440 Hz or 120 to 370 VDC. The Dryer Master requires less than 175 watts that should be provided with a dedicated, isolated grounded circuit.
Grounding AC Power
The DM510 must be provided with a good earth ground. It is recommended that a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) be used for best surge and lightning protection. An isolated ground connected directly into the control panel will assure the equipment is grounded even if it is unplugged. Damage caused by electrical surges and lightning are not warranted.
System Grounding Configuration
A typical electrical installation includes a number of electrical devices or equipment each with its own ground connection. The relationship between these ground connections will affect the overall performance of the system especially during a transient event such as lightning strikes.
Important:
All electrical installations must meet local electrical code requirements.
Note:
Although the information in this section is provided in an attempt to reduce damage to the Dryer
Master due to lightning strikes, it will not necessarily eliminate all lightning damage.

Star Point Grounding
If all the devices in an electrical system are connected to a common point from which a cable runs to ground, the result is a star-point earth ground system. This is illustrated in Figure 21 - Star Point Grounding. For simplicity, only the ground wiring is shown and not other wiring that normally interconnects the devices.

The purpose of any ground system is to keep all connected equipment at the same ground potential. Figure 22 - Effects of surge current in a Star Point ground system illustrates the effect of a surge event in one of the connected devices. The current flow (i) induces a voltage across the ground conductor (V) between the device and the star connection. This voltage potential will be impressed on all devices connected to the star but will be small in magnitude in a well-designed system. A larger voltage will be seen on the conductor between the star connection and the earth ground connection but will have little consequence on the connected equipment as each device will see an equal rise in ground potential. This limits current conduction through sensitive equipment due to differences in ground potential

When ground connections are made at various points along a ground conductor the effect is much different. Figure 23 - Effects of surge current in a conventional ground system illustrates that current flow in the ground wiring results in increasing differences in ground potential in each piece of equipment connected downstream from the surge event. The result can be current flow between devices as a result of a difference in ground potential.

The conclusion is that ground system configuration plays an important role in surge protection. Therefore, Dryer Master installations must attempt to minimize the effects of improper grounding by ideally installing the grounds as a star-point system.
Figure 24 - Dryer Master internal grounding shows the internal grounding that is installed in the DM510. This is done to enhance the grounding capabilities by connecting the ground wires that power the remote sensors to the ground lug in the DM510 chassis. It is important that these wires remain in place along with the new wires placed at these locations during the installation process. These wires provide an extra path for surge current to dissipate.

Moisture Sensors
Power
The low voltage power required by the moisture sensors is supplied by the DM510.
Grounding
The sensors require a good ground to function dependably. Run a minimum 16-gauge green ground wire from each sensor chassis ground to the DM510 I/O Panel. These grounds should be connected to the green ground wire located in the vertical wire channel beside the I/O assembly.
AC Motor Speed Control Interface
Most AC Motor Speed Controls can provide a 0-5V or 0-10V output for speed monitoring and a 0-10V input for remote speed control. These signals are normally isolated and can be connected directly to the DM510 Control Panel. Refer to the motor speed control manufacturer's manual for details.
Local/Remote Control
A 24V relay is required to switch between the local control signal and the DM510 speed input.
DC Motor Speed Control Interface
Discharge Rate Monitoring
The Motor Speed Control Interface converts the 0 to 90/180 VDC output from the motor speed control to an isolated 0 to 5 V signal for the DM510 Discharge Rate Sense input.
Discharge Rate Control
The Motor Speed Control Interface converts the 0 to 10 VDC grounded signal supplied by the DM510 Control Panel to an isolated 0 to 10 V signal to remotely set the customer motor speed control. The existing speed dial on the dryer motor controller must operate between 0 and 10 volts maximum.
Local/Remote Control
The Motor Speed Control Interface provides local/remote switching facility that can disconnect the manual speed dial on the dryer and allow the DM510 to control the discharge rate. Power for this purpose is provided from the DM510 Control Panel.
Note:
This method is used for non-isolated DC speed controls only.

Control Wiring Requirements
Motor Controller and Ground Wiring Specifications
Use approved wire meeting local electrical code requirements between the Motor Speed Control Interface and the motor speed controller. 16-gauge wire is sufficient for all ground wires.
Multi-Cable Specifications
One multi-cable with the following specifications is required between each sensor and the DM510 Control Panel. See below for details.
• Two-pair shielded, minimum 22 AWG (.644 mm or 23 SWG) stranded tinned copper
conductors and drain wire (e.g. Beldon #8723).
• PVC jacket rated for 140°F (60°C). The Dryer Master supplied wire is rated to 105°C.
• Colour code: black, red, green, white (recommended).
• In areas where the temperature will exceed 140°F, use a wire with a higher jacket
rating (e.g. Beldon #88723).
Figure 25 – Multi-Cable Diagram
Note:
All electrical installations must meet local electrical code requirements
Caution
All multi-cable must be run in areas where the maximum temperature does not exceed 105°C
(220°F). Use Teflon coated wires in areas that exceed this limit.

Installing Conduit and Pulling Wires
It is recommended that you use metal conduit for electrical noise shielding and mechanical protection although approved cable tray is also acceptable. A ¾ “, 19.05mm conduit is adequate for the number of wires required (10 cables at .170” or 4.318 mm diameter). Refer to Figure 1­Installation Schematic – DM510 w/ Integrated I/O and APT sensor for typical conduit layout. When installing the conduit, follow these guidelines:
• Install all wiring in accordance with local electrical codes and environmental
conditions.
• Tag each wire with the same number at each end (See figure 11). This will aid with
identifying the routing and connections during installation and service.
• Install the conduit into the DM510 Control Panel through the supplied entry plug.
See Figure 27 - Wire Entry Locations
Remember that it is easy to damage Multi-Cable when pulling into a conduit. Careful installation when doing this will save time and money.
When cutting Multi-Cable and placing it in the conduit, allow:
• An extra 24” (75 cm) at the DM510 Control Panel end
• An extra 12” (30 cm) at the Sensor end
It is recommended that you install a spare Multi-Cable for future upgrades and options.
Caution
Do not place Multi-Cables in any conduit that is carrying electrical power. Do not run unprotected
Multi-Cable in or near high power cable areas.
Caution Warranty Information
Entry through any other way voids the warranty, and may allow condensation from the conduit to
drip into the DM510 Control Panel, or metal shavings may cause a short circuit on the DM510
system board
Page 48
Page | 48
Wiring Instructions (Cable Terminations)
Tools Required
You will need the following tools to prepare and terminate the Multi-Cable:
• Wire Strippers
• Cable Strippers
• Side Cutters
• Small needle nose pliers
• Crimping tool for insulated connectors
• Small screwdriver 1/8" (3mm)
General Wiring Procedure
The following steps demonstrate how to prepare the Multi-Cable without causing damage to the individual conductors.
1. At the DM510 Control Panel end, cut all Multi-Cables so that each will reach 3" (7 cm) past
the furthest connector on the interface board making sure that all the wire numbers are placed such that they will be visible for reference.
2. Use the wire strippers to remove ½" of the PVC outer jacket and expose the ripcord (if the
cable is so equipped). Use the needle nose pliers to pull ripcord so the desired length of wire is exposed. Cut off the original ½" of the cable as it may have been nicked when the PVC jacket was removed and could cause problems at a later date.
3. Remove the insulation using cable strippers. The use of a knife is not recommended because
of the risk of damaging the insulation of the conductors.
4. Use the side cutters to trim the jacket, ripcord and foil shield. DO NOT CUT OFF THE DRAIN
WIRE at the DM510 Control Panel end. Use the side cutters to cut the rest of the wires to a uniform length.
5. When all wiring has been completed, join all the drain wires together at the DM510 Control
Panel end. The shields should be connected to the grounding pigtail provided in the vertical cable tray located beside the I/O board within the DM510 cabinet. Only one end of the shield wire is to be connected to ground. Connect all these wires to the ground wire provided by the DM510 Control Panel.

Moisture Sensors Wiring Instructions
While wiring the sensors refer to Figure 30 - Sensor hook-up schematic. Both the Inlet and Outlet Moisture Sensor Multi-Cables should be wired as follows:
The Moisture Sensor End
1. Follow the instructions given in the section “General Wiring Procedure” to strip the PVC
jacket and expose 4" (10 cm) of wire.
2. Cut off the foil shield and the drain wire at the sensor end of the cable.
3. Tape over the exposed ends of the foil shield and drain wire so that they are insulated from
contact with the metal work and the circuit board.
4. Strip ½" (7mm) and twist (colour to colour) and crimp to the wires exposed in the moisture
sensor using the crimp connectors provided in the sensor.
5. Join the ground wire in the moisture sensor to the ground wire from the DM510 Control
Panel using a wire nut.
The DM510 Control Panel End
1. The Multi-Cables from the Moisture Sensors connect to the DM510 Control Panel
termination. Attach them using the connectors as indicated in Figure 29 - Sensor hook-up physical
2. Connect the Multi-Cable drain wire and the 18-gauge ground wire from the Moisture Sensors
to the ground wire in the DM510 Control Panel.
Notes:

Motor Speed Control Interface Wiring Instructions (for DC drives)
Note: Dryers with discharge systems powered by DC motors may have speed controls where the speed signals and potentiometer signals are live to power. These systems make use of the Dryer Moisture Systems Inc. Motor Speed Control Interface to isolate the speed control signals.
If the Dryer Master Motor Speed Control Interface is used, it should be mounted near the motor speed control for the dryer. The dimensions of the interface are 3" x 5". it is usually mounted inside the dryer's control panel. Make sure that the installation is in a dry, weather-tight area.
DC Motor Speed Control Interface
Local/Remote Control
The Local/Remote Control allows the DM510 Control Panel to initiate switching of the motor speed control between local speed pot and the DM510 Control Panel. Below is a list of the multi-cable requirements for a DM510 system with ALL options.

The DM510 Speed Sense must be set to 0-5 VDC or 0-10 VDC depending what is being sent from the Dryers speed control. Most frequency drives output 0-10 volts as a speed signal. Changing the range is accomplished by placing the jumper on J26. Shorting pins 1 and 2 selects a 0-5 volt range while shorting pins 2 and 3 selects a 0-10 volt range. The default is 0-10 volt range.
The Local/Remote output must be set for 24 VDC, NO output. Placing the jumpers on J5 and J6 does this. Shorting pins 1 and 2 of J5 will give the 24 VDC while shorting pins 2 and 3 of J6 gives the NO condition.

AC Motor Speed Control Interface
Most AC Motor Speed Controls can provide a 0-5V output for speed monitoring and a 0-10V input for remote speed control. If these signals are isolated they can be connected directly to the DM510 Control Panel
Local/Remote Status Wiring Instructions
The Motor Speed Control Interface provides a local/remote switching facility that can disconnect the manual speed dial on the dryer and allow the DM510 to control the discharge rate. It is necessary for the DM510 to understand the status of this functionality. This is achieved by wiring up the spare dry contact from the local/remote relay used to switch local control signal and the DM 510 speed input in the case of an AC motor.

Drying Air Temperature Wiring Instructions
There are three options for providing the DM510 with a drying air temperature reading. In most cases the decision about which option to use is made at the time of ordering the DM510 system.
1. A Dryer Master Air Plenum Temperature Sensor to be located in the dryer
2. A signal converter that utilizes the dryer temperature information
3. Using a signal from a temperature controller with a digital or analog output
Caution
All multi-cable must be run in areas where the maximum temperature does not exceed 105°C
(220°F). Use Teflon coated wires in areas that exceed this limit.

Dryer Master DM510
This device measures the temperature of the drying air in the air plenum. If the temperature controller for the dryer does not have a scaled output use the Drying Air Temperature Sensor supplied with the DM510. For both options remember to attach the Multi-cable shield to ground at Dryer Master end and insulate it on the other end.
Mount the Drying Air Temperature Sensor within one foot of the existing temperature sensor in the hot zone of the dryer. Both sensors should be at the same height. Use high temperature wire from the Drying Air Temperature Sensor to the outside of the hot zone. At this point the standard two pair shielded cable can be used.
Hint
Caulk the conduit entry into the hot zone of the dryer with silicone. This avoids a hot draft
heating up the conduit near your splice.

Connecting to a Drying Air Temperature Controller
There are two possible methods to connect to a Temperature Controller within the dryer control panel. First is a direct analog connection and second is a RS485 connection. Consult your Temperature Controller manual to determine which one you have. Run one Multi-cable between the Dryer Master and the Temperature Controller. Check the temperature controller manual for the correct termination.

The default reference voltage for the speed setting potentiometer is 5 Volts at terminal 10. Therefore the input signal at terminal 2 is also configured for 0 to 5 volt. This can be set with Parameter 73. By default parameter 73 is set to 1, setting parameter 73 to 0 will set the input signal range to 0 10 volts. This will also require using terminal 10E, the 10 volt reference for the speed setting potentiometer. Ether configuration is suitable with Dryer Mster
Note: The Dryer Master speed setting signal is wired into the same terminal as the manual speed setting potentiometer, The relay serves to connect either the Speed potentiometer or the Dryer Master to terminal 2. Therefore the speed potentiometer wire connection to terminal 2 of the speed control is now routed through the relay. With the relay not energized the Speed Potentiometer is in control.

Note: To achieve the most flexibility and still maintain the use of a manual speed potentiometer for the just in case scenario the speed setting signal is wired into the same terminal as the manual speed setting potentiometer, The relay serves to connect either the speed potentiometer or the PLC speed signal to the input terminal. Therefore the speed potentiometer wire connection to the input terminal of the speed control is now routed through the relay. With the relay not energized the Speed Potentiometer is in control.

Appendix 2: Complete instructions for programming and wiring Omega TXDIN70­24V Signal Converter
Forward:
This appendix contains instructions on how to use an Omega part number TXDIN70-24V signal converter to share a dryer temperature thermocouple sensor with a Dryer Master DM510. Note
that the signal converter is typically provided already fully programmed.
Materials:
The following materials are required to accomplish this task:
1. Signal Converter, Omega part number TXDIN70-24V.(Green)
2. Programming/Display Adapter, w/ cable, (Black) Omega part number TXDIN70-
DISPLAY
3. Precision 250Ω resistor
4. Various hand tools and wire as indicated.
Procedure:
1) Mount the signal converter onto a DIN rail in the dryer panel.
2) If desired, mount the programming display to the DIN rail beside the converter.
3) Use the supplied USB cable to connect the display to the converter.
4) Use instrumentation cable to connect the converter signal output (terminal 5 (+),
terminal 6 (-)) and power wires (terminal 1 (+), terminal 2 (-)) to the Dryer Master as
shown in figure 1.
5) Using the appropriate thermocouple wire, jumper the thermocouple sensor signal
from the existing plenum temperature controller to the new converter. Connect the
positive wire (white) to terminal 15 and the negative wire (red) to terminal 14 of the
converter.
6) Install the 250Ω precision resistor inside the Dryer Master from the Air Temp
connector terminal “Temp” to terminal “GND”.
7) Program the converter.
Page 69
Page | 69
Note 1: The TXDIN70-24V converter is a two-channel device. The instructions above use channel 1. Channel 2 input uses terminals 10 and 11 while the output uses terminals 7 and 8.

Note 2: If the 250Ω precision resistor is missing you can substitute four (4) 1000Ω 5% resistors commonly available at any electronic supply house. Twist the leads of all four resistors together to get 250Ω and install the resistors as instructed above. This may introduce a small error in the reading at the dryer master but should be reasonably close.

Programming:
The following instructions will setup both channels identically. Should channel 1 fail for any reason, simply moving the appropriate wires to channel 2 will restore operation.
Note: If, when displaying a parameter there is inactivity on the keypad for more than about 20 seconds, the display exits the parameter setup. If this happens to you, simply return to step 1 and start over.
Note: You can only advance from one parameter to the next. If you enter the wrong value and advance to the next parameter you will need to advance through all the parameters and back to the temperature display screen in order to re-enter the parameters and correct your mistake.
Note: The programming/display unit will only show the temperature in degrees Celsius when connected to a thermocouple. For reference purposes, 100°C = 212°F, 0°C = 32°F and 21°C ≈ 70°F.
1) Press and hold the return key until the first parameter is displayed.
2) Set input channel 1 (InP1) to 3 for a T-type thermocouple or 5 for a J-type
thermocouple using the up and down arrows.
3) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
4) Set input channel 2 (InP2) to 3 for a T-type thermocouple or 5 for a J-type
thermocouple using the up and down arrows.
5) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
6) Set channel 1 scale low limit (SCL1) to -80.0.
7) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
8) Set channel 2 scale low limit (SCL2) to -80.0.
9) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
10) Set channel 1 scale high limit (SCH1) to 204.4.
11) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
12) Set channel 2 scale high limit (SCH2) to 204.4.
13) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
14) Set channel 1 input offset (Scb1) to 0.
15) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
16) Set channel 2 input offset (Scb2) to 0.
17) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
18) Set channel 1 digital filter (FIL1) to 30.
Page 71
Page | 71
19) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
20) Set channel 2 digital filter (FIL2) to 30.
21) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
22) Set retransmission channel assignment (OPn) to 1.
23) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
24) Set low limit of current retransmission of channel 1 (OPL) to 0.0.
25) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
26) Set high limit of current retransmission of channel 1 (OPH) to 200.
27) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
28) Set low limit of current retransmission of channel 2 (OPL2) to 0.0.
29) Press the return key to advance to the next parameter.
30) Set high limit of current retransmission of channel 1 (OPH2) to 200.
31) Do not change the remaining parameters.
32) Press the return key several more times to return to the temperature display screen.
Check the plenum temperature parameters on the Dryer Master as follows.
1. Press the “Settings” key.
2. Press “2” for installer setup.
3. Enter the password “4628”.
4. Press “Enter”.
5. Press “7” for Drying Temperature setup.
6. With the highlight bar on the slope value change the value (if required) to 0.5 and
press the “Enter” key. (If in degrees C use 0.2777)
7. Use the arrow keys to move the highlight bar to the offset value and change the
value (if required) to -112 and press the “Enter” key. (If in degrees C use -80)
8. Press the “Cancel” key several times to return to the main screen.
The Dryer Master should now read the same temperature as the dryer panel. When drying, if there is an error greater than 2-3 degrees change the offset value on the Dryer Master so the temperature displayed matches the dryer panel reading.
Note: The Programming/Display adapter can be removed when programming is complete as it is not required for system operation.
If problems arise, contact Dryer Master Support at 1-888-318-0009.

Appendix 3. Sensor Chutes w/ Rotary Feed
Option 1: Bypass Method
The sensor chute is designed to be used in a bypass type installation of the outlet moisture sensor. In a bypass type installation only a portion of the total product flow passes by the sensor (See pages 28-29).
• Dimensions: 18 1/4” L x 8 1/2” W x 16 1/2” H
• Upper mounting flange 8 1/2” x 8 1/2”
• Built in sampling access
• Motor is IP66, 25W, 115VAC single phase,
0.43FLA reversible motor with 180:1 gear
reduction (230VAC also available if required)
• Sensor housing can be mounted in any
direction without impacting flow (must be
vertical)
Installation Considerations:
1. The sensor housing (top portion of the assembly) can be mounted in any direction. You can
unbolt the four bolts attaching the sensor housing to the rotary feed, then rotate the housing to the desired direction, and then bolt back together. The sensor can also be mounted where the viewing window is located (and then move the viewing window to the previous sensor location).
2. Ideally the sensor housing and chute assembly should be free of grain when the dryer is not
running. This avoids having stagnant grain gumming up the assembly. To do this the motor
for the rotary feed should be wired so that it is the last thing that shuts off after the dryer shuts down. Having the motor turn on and off with the dry conveyor will usually
accomplish this
3. To ensure proper flow, the transition piece mounted to the bottom of the chute should be
the same size as the hole leaving the chute (6”X6”).

Option 2: In-Line Method
The sensor chute is designed to be used in an inline type installation of the outlet moisture sensor. In an inline type installation a portion of the total product flow passes through the 6X6 chute with the rest flowing over the sides in the larger chute. (See pages 33-34).
• Overall 18.25” X 10”X 18.25” (HXWXD) (46.3
cm X 25.4 cm X46.3 cm)
• Inside chute 6”X6” (15.25 cm X 15.25 cm)
• Mounting plate is 18.25” X 10”
(46.3 cm X 25.4 cm)
• Motor is IP66, 25W, 115VAC single phase,
0.43FLA reversible motor with 180:1 gear reduction (230VAC also available)
• Slide gate to close off flow

Appendix 4. Round Cell Sensor
In some cases a round cell sensor may be the most appropriate sensor choice. This may be the case where there is limited space for the standard fin sensor installation with a chute and slide gate or rotary valve.
