Exhaust system

Air principle

The blower creates low pressure in the dryer,
drawing air into the cylinder via the heating unit.
The heated air passes through the garments and
the cylinder vents.
The air then flows out through a lint filter positio-
3
ned immediately below the drum. After this, the
air is evacuated through the blower and exhaust
system.
It is very important that the dryer gets enough
fresh air, see next section.

Fresh-air

For maximum efficiency and the shortest pos-
4
sible drying time, it is important to ensure that
fresh air is able to enter the room from the out-
side in the same volume as that blown out of the
room.
To avoid a draught in the room, it is advisable to
5
place the air inlet behind the dryer.
The area* of the air inlet opening must be 5 times
the size of the exhaust pipe area.
See table on the following page.
The resistance in the grating/slats on the air inlet
cover plate should not exceed 10 Pa
(0.1 mbar).
Note! Gratings/slatted covers often block half of
the total fresh air vent area. Remember to take
this into account.
*The area of the inlet opening is the area through
which the air can flow without resistance from
grating/slatted cover.
