Page 14

C. DRYER ENCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS

Even though a 12-inch (30.48 cm) clearance is acceptable, it is recommended that the rear of the dryer be positioned approximately 24-inches (60.96 cm) from the nearest obstruction (i.e., wall) for ease of installation, maintenance, and service. Bulkheads and partitions should be made from noncombustible materials. The clearance between the bulkhead header and the dryer must be a minimum of 4-inches (10.16 cm) and must not extend more than 4-inches (10.16 cm) to the rear of the front. A 2-inch (5.08 cm) clearance is required between the bulkhead facing and the top of the dryer.

NOTE: Bulkhead facing should not be installed until after the dryer is in place. Ceiling area must be located

a minimum of 12-inches (30.48 cm) above the dryer top console (module).

NOTE: When fire sprinkler systems are located above the dryers, a minimum of 18-inches (45.72 cm) above

the dryer console (module) is required. Dryers may be positioned sidewall to sidewall, however, 1 or 2-inches (2.54 or 5.08 cm) is suggested for ease of installation and maintenance. Allowances must be made for the opening and closing of the control door and the lint door.

D. FRESH AIR SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

When the dryer is operating, it draws in room air, heats it, passes this air through the basket (tumbler), and exhausts it out of the building. Therefore, the room air must be continually replenished from the outdoors. If the make-up air is inadequate, drying time and drying efficiency problems may result, as well as premature motor failure from overheating. The dryer must be installed with provisions for adequate combustion and make-up air supply .

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 350 square inches (2258.1 square cm) is required for each gas dryer (based on 1 square inch per 1000 Btus).

10 JLA Limited 113374-4

will be adversely affected. Ignition problems and sail switch “fluttering”

To compensate for the use of registers or louvers used over the openings, this make-up air must be increased by approximately thirty-three percent (33%). Make-up air openings should not be located in an area directly near where exhaust vents exit the building.

is not necessary to have a separate make-up air opening

It 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

EXAMPLE: For a bank of four (4) dryers, two (2) unrestricted openings measuring 26-inches by 26.9-inches (66.1 cm by

68.4 cm) each are acceptable.

Allowances must be made for remote or constricting passageways or where dryers are located at excessive altitudes or predominantly low pressure areas.

ALL the dryers.

A = 26-Inches (66.1 cm) B = 26.9-Inches (68.4 cm)

IMPORTANT: Make-up air must be provided from a source free of dry cleaning solvent fumes. Make-up

air that is contaminated by dry cleaning solvent fumes will result in irreparable damage to the motors and other dryer components.

NOTE: Component failure due to dry cleaning solvent fumes will VOID THE WARRANTY.

E. EXHAUST REQUIREMENTS

1. General Exhaust Ductwork Information

Exhaust ductwork should be designed and installed by a qualified professional. Improperly sized ductwork will create excessive back pressure which results in slow drying, increased use of energy, overheating of the dryer, and shutdown of the burner by the airflow (sail) switches, burner hi-limits, or basket (tumbler) hi-heat thermostats. The dryer must be installed with a proper exhaust duct connection to the outside.

CAUTION: This dryer produces combustible lint and must be exhausted to the outdoors.

CAUTION: IMPROPERLY SIZED OR INSTALLED EXHAUST DUCTWORK CAN CREATE A

POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

NOTE: When dryers are exhausted into a multiple (common) exhaust line, each dryer must be supplied with a

back draft damper.

The ductwork should be laid out in such a way that the ductwork travels as directly as possible to the outdoors with as few turns as possible. Single or independent dryer venting is recommended.

113374- 4 Telephone 01422 822282 11

Page 16

When single dryer venting is used, the ductwork from the dryer to the outside exhaust outlet should not exceed 20 feet (6.09 meters). In the case of multiple (common) dryer venting, the distance from the last dryer to the outside exhaust outlet should not exceed 20 feet (6.09 meters). The shape of the ductwork minimum cross-sectional area is provided. It is suggested that the use of 90º turns bends/angles instead. The radius of the elbows should preferably be 1-1/2 times the diameter of the duct. Excluding basket (tumbler)/dryer elbow connections or elbows used for outside protection from the weather, no more than two (2) elbows should be used in the exhaust duct run. If more than two (2) elbows are used, the cross-sectional area of the ductwork must be increased in proportion to the number of elbows used.

ALL ductwork should be smooth inside with no projections from sheet metal screws or other obstructions, which will collect lint. When adding ducts, the duct to be added should overlap the duct to which it is to be connected. ductwork joints must be taped to prevent moisture and lint from escaping into the building. Inspection doors should be installed at strategic points in the exhaust ductwork for periodic inspection and cleaning of lint from the ductwork.

IMPORTANT: Exhaust back pressure measured by a manometer in the exhaust duct must be no less than 0

and must not exceed 0.3 inches (0.74 mb) of water column (W.C.).

NOTE: When the exhaust ductwork passes through a wall, ceiling, or roof made of combustible materials, the

opening must be 2-inches (5.08 cm) larger than the duct (all the way around). The duct must be centered within this opening.

ALL

Outside Ductwork Protection

To protect the outside end of the horizontal ductwork from the weather, a 90° elbow bent downward should be installed where the exhaust exits the building. If the ductwork travels vertically up through the roof, it should be protected from the weather by using a 180° turn to point the opening downward. In either case, allow at least twice the diameter of the duct between the duct opening and the nearest obstruction.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT use screens, louvers, or caps on the outside opening of the exhaust ductwork.

2. Single Dryer Venting

Where possible, it is suggested to provide a separate exhaust duct for each dryer. The exhaust duct should be laid out in such a way that the ductwork travels as directly as possible to the outdoors with as few turns as possible. It is suggested that the use of 90° turns in the ducting exhaust ductwork

is not critical as long as the minimum cross section area is provided.

IMPORTANT: The minimum duct size for a gas unit is 16-inches (40.64 cm) for a round duct and

14-1/4” x 14-1/4” (36.2 cm x 36.2 cm) for a square duct. THE DUCT SIZE MUST NOT BE REDUCED ANYWHERE DOWNSTREAM OF THE DRYER.

12 JLA Limited 113374-4

be avoided; use 30° and/or 45° angles instead. The shape of the

Page 17

IMPORTANT: Exhaust back pressure measured by a manometer at each basket (tumbler) exhaust duct area

must be no less than 0 and must not exceed 0.3 inches (0.74 mb) of water column (W .C.).

It is suggested that the ductwork from each dryer not exceed 20 feet (6.09 meters) with no more than two (2) elbows (excluding dryer connections). If the ductwork exceeds 20 feet (6.09 meters) or has numerous elbows, the cross-sectional area of the ductwork must be increased in proportion to the length and number of elbows in it. In calculating duct 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 duct should be increased ten percent (10%) for each additional 15 feet (4.57 meters). Each 90º elbow is equivalent to an additional 40 feet (12.19 meters), and each 45º elbow is equivalent to an additional 20 feet (6.09 meters).

IMPORTANT: For extended ductwork runs, the cross section area of the ductwork can only be increased to

an extent. Maximum proportional ductwork runs cannot exceed 20 feet (6.09 meters) more than the original limitations of 20 feet (6.09 meters) with two (2) elbows. When the ductwork approaches the maximum limits as noted in this manual, a professional heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) firm should be consulted for proper venting information.

be installed at strategic points in the exhaust ductwork for periodic inspection and cleaning of lint from the ductwork.

NOTE: When the exhaust ductwork passes through a wall, ceiling, or roof made of combustible materials, the

opening must be 2-inches (5.08 cm) larger than the duct (all the way around). The duct must be centered within this opening.

3. 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 46-inches (116.84 cm) apart. The main duct should be tapered, with the diameter increasing before each individual 16-inch (40.54 cm) duct is added.

IMPORTANT: When exhausted into a multiple (common) exhaust line, a back draft damper must be installed

at each dryer duct.

IMPORTANT: No more than three (3) 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. These figures must be increased in proportion if the main duct run to the last dryer to where it exhausts to the outdoors is unusually long (over 20 feet [6.09 meters]) or has numerous elbows (more than two [2]) in it. 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 90° elbow is equivalent to an additional 40 feet (12.19 meters) and each 45° elbow is equivalent to an additional 20 feet (6.09 meters).

5. Heat Circuit Operational Test

a. Gas Models

1) When the dryer is first started (during initial start-up), the burner has a tendency not to ignite on the first attempt. This is because the gas supply piping is filled with air , so it may take a few minutes for this air to be purged from the lines.

a) If the dryer is equipped with a Direct Spark Ignition (DSI) system, the DSI control module has internal

diagnostics. If ignition “LOCKOUT” until it is manually reset. To reset the DSI system, open and close the main door and restart the dryer.

b) If the dryer is equipped with a Hot Surface Ignition (HSI) system, the HSI control module has internal

diagnostics. If ignition “LOCKOUT” until it is manually reset. To reset the HSI system, open and close the main door and restart the dryer.

NOTE: During the purging period, check to be sure that ALL gas shutoff valves are open.

2) Once ignition is established, a gas pressure test should be taken at the gas valve pressure tap of each dryer to ensure that the water column (W.C.) pressure is correct and consistent.

NOTE: Water column pressure requirements (measured at the gas valve pressure tap):

Natural Gas---------------------3.5 Inches (8.7 mb) Water Column. Liquid Propane (L.P .) Gas ----10.5 Inches (26.1 mb) Water Column.

IMPORTANT: There is no regulator provided in an L.P . dryer . The water column pressure must be regulated

at the source (L.P . tank) or an external regulator must be added to each dryer.

6. Make a complete operational check of ALL safety-related circuits (i.e., lint drawer switch and sail switch on gas

models).

NOTE: To check for proper sail switch operation, open the main door and while holding main door switch

plunger in, start the dryer . The dryer should start but the heat circuit should not be activated (on). If the heat (burner) does activate, shut the dryer off and make the necessary adjustments.

7. A reversing basket (tumbler) dryer must never be operated with less than a 63 pound (28.57 kg) load (dry weight).

The size of the load will affect the coast-down and dwell (stop) times. The basket (tumbler) must come to a complete stop before starting in the opposite direction.

CUSTOMER FURNISHED BACK DRAFT DAMPERS IN THE EXHAUST DUCTWORK. INSPECT AND REMOVE ANY LINT ACCUMULA TION, WHICH CAN CAUSE THE DAMPER TO BIND OR STICK.

NOTE: A back draft damper that is sticking partially closed can result in slow drying and shut down of the heat

circuit safety switches or thermostats.

NOTE: When cleaning the dryer cabinet(s), avoid using harsh abrasives. A product intended for the cleaning

of appliances is recommended.

Check ALL V-belts for tightness and wear. Retighten, realign, or replace if required.

NOTE: V-belts should be replaced in matched sets (pairs).

B. ADJUSTMENTS

7 DAYS AFTER INSTALLATION and EVERY 6 MONTHS THEREAFTER

Inspect bolts, nuts, screws, setscrews, grounding connections, and nonpermanent gas connections ( unions, shutoff valves, and orifices). Fan (impellor) V -belts, along with the motor and drive belts should be examined and replaced if necessary . Tighten loose V-belts when necessary . Complete operational check of controls and valves. Complete operational check

ALL safety devices (door switches, lint drawer switch, sail switch, burner, and hi-limit thermostats).

NOTE: Squirrel cage type fan (impellor) on the blower motor must be inspected and cleaned every 6 months.

C. LUBRICATION

The fan shaft bearings and ALL the basket (tumbler) drive shaft and idler shaft bearings must be lubricated every 3 months.

Use a #2 grease or its equivalent. Lubrication is necessary or premature bearing failure will be the result.

The motor bearings are permanently lubricated and DO NOT require to be serviced.

PROCEDURE FOR FUNCTIONAL CHECK

OF REPLACEMENT COMPONENTS

1. For Heat Control Module Ignition Circuit

a. For Models With Johnson Controls Direct Spark Ignition (DSI) Module (G760)

Theory Of Operation:

Start the drying cycle. When the gas burner ignites within the chosen trial for ignition time (6-seconds), the flame sensor detects gas burner flame and signals the DSI module to keep the gas valve open as long as there is a call for heat. The DSI module will “LOCKOUT” if the gas burner flame end of the trial for ignition period. The trial for ignition period be repeated for a total of three (3) retries/trials (the initial try and two [2] more retries/trials). If the flame of the third retry/trial (inter-purge period of 30-seconds) the DSI module will “LOCKOUT” (light emitting diode [L.E.D.] flashes).

will

is not sensed at the end

A steady L.E.D. indicator indicates normal operation.

No L.E.D. indicator indicates a power or an internal failure has occurred.

b. For Models With Hot Surface Ignition (HSI) Module

1) Start the drying cycle.

2) The HSI will turn on, and after approximately 4-seconds the ignitor will shut off and the gas valve Ignition (flame) should now be established.

3) With the burner flame on, remove the flame sensor wire from the S2 terminal of the HSI module. The burner flame must shut off immediately .

4) Stop the drying cycle, with the flame sensor wire still removed, restart the drying cycle.

5) The HSI will turn on, and after a few seconds later the gas valve Ignition (flame) should be evident for approximately 7-seconds and then shut off.

6) The HSI module will attempt to light burner only “once.” If flame lockout and the “red” indicator light will flash continuously .

7) Functional check of the HSI module is complete.

Replace the flame sensor wire from the S2 terminal to the HSI module.
