BLOWER DRYER
To assist and promote drying of tableware and
trays by forced circulation of high velocity heated
air through the clean dishware section of the Hobart
Flight-type dishmachines.
Blower dryer is built on a minimum 7' unloading
section only. Hooded chamber/blower section covers
66" length of conveyor, to provide adequate drying
time.
• CONSTRUCTION: All sheet metal construction
is 16 gauge stainless steel. Hinged insulated
inspection doors on front side of machine provides
access. Stainless steel wrap-around encloses
entire external component assembly, consisting
of steam or electric heaters, motor and blower.
• ELECTRIC HEATER: Nine Incoloy sheathed
electric heaters for a total of 9.6 KW heating
capacity. Thermostatic over temperature
protection is standard. Electric specications are
208/60/3, 240/60/3 or 480/60/3.
• STEAM COIL: Heavy-duty, high-efciency nned
tube-type heat exchanger. Copper tubes and
aluminum ns with galvanized frame. 11⁄2" F.P.T.
steam connection 3⁄4" F.P.T. condensate return
connection. Steam requirements are 75 pounds
per hour at 20 P.S.I. or about 2.2 boiler H.P.
Maximum allowable steam pressure is 25 P.S.I.
Operating pressures above 25 P.S.I. may require a
pressure reducing valve.
• BLOWER: Industrial fan-type with squirrel-cage
type wheel. Housing of welded construction
throughout.
Blower is directly driven by a 2 H.P. motor with
sealed ball bearings. Motor construction is of
open drip proof design. The blower dryer is totally
enclosed by removable stainless steel panels
mounted on top of the dryer chamber. Exhaust
requirement is 1000 C.F.M. (at standard air conditions). Sound level at end of 7-foot unloading
section, with full machine operation is less than
85 DBA, dened by A.N.S.I. (American National
Standards Institute) Standard No. S1.1-1960 ...
below existing O.S.H.A. rules. At loading end of
dishwasher, sound level is 80 DBA or less.
The blower motor is provided with inherent over-
load protection and a manual reset. Furnished only
in three-phase electrical specications of the basic
Flight-Type Model in 208-240/60/3 and 480/60/3.

No other control system allows easier
monitoring.
The controls are placed in a convenient panel that
lets operators verify proper operation and temperatures at a glance. Digital
display indicates the
unit is on, and conrms
that the doors are
closed. Automatic door
interlocks prevent the
pump and conveyor from operating if the doors are
open. Easy-to-read digital display indicates accurate
temperatures of the 150°F wash, 160°F power rinse,
160°F dual rinse and 180°F nal rinse — critical for
proper HACCP system record-keeping.
Stainless steel pump is
built for long life.
The stainless steel pump
housing and impeller offer
greater durability and long
life. The pump motor is
totally enclosed and fan
cooled (TEFC) to protect
it from water spray during
dishroom clean-up. The
pump is also externally mounted to the frame for
added rigidity and easy access to the clean-out port.
Scrap baskets capture
food particles and are
easy to clean.
The sloped screens that
carry scraps to the scrap
baskets are steeper, so
less soil gets into the
tanks. The basket opening
is larger for easy cleaning and basket handles have
been designed for easy lift-out access.
The FT900BD Series saves
water and energy.
The unit is designed to cut water
and energy usage, yet provide
effective cleaning and sanitizing
that meet NSF International
requirements.
This is achieved through a care fully balanced ratio of water ow
to pressure. At 292 gallons per
minute (gpm), the machine offers excellent wetting
and ooding over ware. Insulated doors also reduce
heat loss. The unit’s 2.2 gpm/120 gallons per hour
rinse ow rate (the lowest in the industry on a standard machine) saves both water and the energy to
heat it.
FLIGHT-TYPE DISHWASHER
Wider, variable speed
conveyor offers
increased throughput.
The conveyor is wider so
it can handle more ware.
Result: more volume and
versatility, quicker work. Its speed is servicer adjustable for the type of ware, soiled condition, or workforce requirements. It can be adjusted from 4 to 8.5
feet per minute.
Optional Energy
Recovery system.
The optional Energy
Recovery system
captures escaping
heat and steam from
the exhaust air and
uses a heat exchanger to recycle it into energy.
This free energy is used to preheat the incoming
water supply before it enters the booster heater. The
cold ground temperature water passes through a
heat exchanger positioned directly in line with the
machine’s exhaust system to capture the energy
from the exhaust air to elevate the temperature of the
water to 128° before it enters the booster heater.
Flush arm keeps load
end clean.
The load end also has a readily removable ush arm to rinse
food scraps into the prewash
area scrap basket.
Self-draining pumps help keep water clean.
Pumps are self-draining when the machine is shut
down and drained, so there is no residual water left in
the pumps.
Installation is quick and easy with modular
design, minimal wiring connections, and
single point vent.
Modular design means the FT900BD Series installs
quickly, and reliably. Sections t through 42" doors.
The control panel is already in place, premounted to
the power wash/nal rinse section.
Wiring connections are
minimal, and there is only
a single vent connection,
saving time and expense.
The control box uses a
“single plane” circuitry
design for easy accessibility during installation and service. The FT900BD
Series is ready to run quickly.
