Electrical Information
It is your responsibility to have ALL electrical connections (including grounding) made by a properly licensed and competent electrician to assure that the electrical installation is adequate and conforms with local and state regulations or codes.
In the absence of such codes, ALL electrical connections, material, and workmanship must con-
form to the applicable requirements of the NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE ANSI/NFPA NO. 70 or
the CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE, CSA C22.1 - both the latest edition.
IMPORTANT: Failure to comply with these codes or ordinances and/or the requirements
stipulated in this manual can result in personal injury or component failure.
NOTE: Component failure due to improper installation will VOID THE WARRANTY.
IMPORTANT: A separate circuit serving each dryer must be provided. The dryer must be
connected to copper wire only. DO NOT use aluminum wire which could
cause a fire hazard.
NOTE: The use of aluminum wire will VOID THE WARRANTY
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing controls. Wiring errors
can cause improper operation or component failure.
Electric Service
Gas dryers ONLY
IMPORTANT: The dryer must be connected to the electrical supply shown on the data
label affixed to the dryer. In the case of 208 VAC or 240 VAC, the supply
voltage must match the electric service specifications of the data label
exactly. Wire must be properly sized to handle the rated current.
WARNING: 120 VAC, 208 VAC and 240 VAC ARE NOT THE SAME. Any damage
done to dryer components due to improper voltage connections will
VOID THE WARRANTY.
NOTE: On gas dryers, to convert from 120 VAC to 208 VAC or to 240 VAC (or vice
versa), the Direct Spark Ignition (DSI) transformer wiring must be
changed.

Gas Information
It is your responsibility to have ALL plumbing connections made by a qualified professional to
insure that the installation is adequate and conforms with local and state regulations or codes. In
the absence of such codes, ALL plumbing connections, material, and workmanship must conform
to the applicable requirements of
the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 or the CAN/CGA-B149, INSTALLATION CODES both the latest edition.
IMPORTANT: Failure to comply with these codes or ordinances, and/ or the requirements
stipulated in this manual, can result in personal injury and improper
operation of the dryer.
The dryer and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of I/ 2 psig (3.5 kPa). The
dryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or
greater than
1
/2psig (3.5 kPa).
IMPORTANT: Failure to isolate or disconnect the dryer from the gas supply as noted can cause
irreparable damage to the gas valve and will VOID THE WARRANTY.
WARNING: FIRES or EXPLOSION COULD RESULT.
Gas Supply
The gas dryer installation must meet the American National Standard, National Fuel Gas Code
Z223.1-LATEST EDITION, as well as local codes and ordinances and must be done by a qualified
professional,
NOTE: Undersized gas piping will result in ignition problems,
slow drying, increased use of energy, and can create a safety hazard.
The dryer must be connected to the type of heat/ gas indicated on the dryer data label. If this
information does not agree with the type of gas available, do not operate the dryer. Contact your
local dealer or the Wascomat Sales Department.
IMPORTANT: Any burner changes or conversions must be
made by a qualified licensed professional.
The input ratings shown on the dryer data label are for elevations of up to 2,000 feet. The adjustment or conversion of the dryer(s) in the field for elevations over 2,000 feet are made by changing
each burner orifice.
Also for conversion to LPG there are conversion kits.
If these conversions are necessary, contact your local dealer or the Wascomat Sales Department.

Technical Gas Data
Natural Gas
The natural gas supply pressure to the dryer must be between 6 and 10 inches water column. If
the pressure is too low, ignition failure and/or slow drying times may result. Excessively high supply pressure will result in erratic operation of the gas valve’s internal pressure regulator. The pressure measured at the pressure tap on the body of the gas valve must be for TYPE 30: 4.2-inches
water column, TYPE 50: 3.2 -inches water column and TYPE 75: 3.2 -inches water column
Liquid Petroleum (L.P.) Gas
Dryers made for use with L.P. gas have the gas valve pressure regulator blocked open, so that the
gas pressure must be regulated upstream of the dryer. The pressure measured at the gas valve
body pressure tap must be 11 inches water column. In accordance with American Gas Association
(AGA) standards, a gas pressure regulator, when installed indoors, must be equipped with a vent
limiter or a vent line must be installed from the gas pressure regulator vent to the outype oors.
The water column pressure must be regulated at the source (L,P. tank), or an external regulator
must be added to each dryer.
Piping/Connections
The dryer is provided with a 1/2” N.P.T. (the model TYPE 75 has a 3/4”) inlet pipe connection extending out the rear area or through the top of the dryer. For ease of servicing, the gas supply line of
each dryer should have its own shut-off valve.
The size of the gas supply line (header) will vary depending on the distance this supply line travels
from the gas meter or, in the case of L.P. gas, the supply tank, the number of tees, other gas-operated appliances, etc. Specific information regarding supply line size should be determined by the
gas supplier.
NOTE: Undersized gas supply piping can create a low or inconsistent gas pressure which
will result in erratic operation of the burner ignition system.
Consistent gas pressure is essential at ALL gas connections. It is recommended that a
3
/4-inch
pipe gas loop be installed in the supply line serving the bank of dryers. An in-line pressure regulator must be installed in the gas supply line (header) if (natural) gas line pressure exceeds 12-inches water column pressure.
IMPORTANT: Water column pressure of TYPE: 30 4.2 -inches water column, TYPE: 50 3.2 -
inches water column and TYPE: 75 3.2 -inches water column for natural gas dry
ers
and 11.0 inches for L.P, dryers is required at the gas valve pressure tap of each
dryer for proper and safe operation.
A1/8” N.P,T. plugged tap, accessible for test gauge connection, must be installed in the main gas
supply line immediately upstream of each dryer.
IMPORTANT: Pipe joint compounds that resist the action of natural gas and L.P. gas
MUST BE used.
WARNING: Test ALL connections for leaks by brushing on a soapy water solution (liquid
detergent also works well). NEVER TEST FOR GAS LEAKS WITH AN OPEN
FLAME.
ALL components / materials must conform to NATIONALFUEL GAS CODE specifications. It is
important that gas pressure regulators meet applicable pressure requirements and that gas meters
are rated for the total amount of appliance Btu’s being supplied.
