This manual gives general information on the location of thermocouples and optional moisture sensing equipment and the temperature control logic. If the heater is part of a Samuel Jackson Drying System, more detailed information will be shipped to you under separate cover specifically for your system.

If a chokeup occurs, static pressure is still present and the burner continues to operate. This can cause a fire. All Samuel Jackson heaters use an air flow switch which measures the difference in pressure sensed by orifices pointing upstream and downstream.

The “Test Program” can be activated by a qualified service man or trained user to test the heater. It is always performed in the Samuel Jackson factory before shipment of a new heater and occasionally in the field when necessary for troubleshooting. This program allows the service man to proceed step-by-step, through a series of tests where individual components of the heater can be tested, calibrated, and adjusted.

Figure 2 – Basic Temperature Control 14-3567.3 In Samuel Jackson drying systems, the blue primary thermocouple is placed after the dryer’s skimmer in the skimmed air. For tower drying systems, this thermocouple should be placed in the top of the tower or in the transition immediately before the tower. Due to the responsiveness of the temperature controls, placing this thermocouple farther down in the tower will cause control instability.

Figure 4 shows the feed- forward control with a moisture sensor in the storage bin of a feed control. The moisture control is adjusting the temperature of one heater that may be part of either a Samuel Jackson drying system or tower drying system.

Use this arrangement for tower drying systems where both first and second stage heater temperatures are adjusted automatically with the moisture control. This arrange ment is used for Samuel Jackson drying systems using more than one heater. One PRIMARY TEMP CONTROLLER is used for measuring the temperature after a dryer.
The ERROR and ALARM LOGGING SYSTEM is a new feature for the Oil-Fired Heaters and is designed to make troubleshooting easier for both the user and Samuel Jackson service personnel. This system remembers the last 500 ERRORS and ALARMS, thus showing a history of past problems.

ERROR 441 FAN INTERLOCK HAS BEEN BYPASSED: Samuel Jackson Heaters are provided with a fan interlock to provide immediate shutdown of the heater when the fans are turned off. This error indicates that an electrical signal is being received through the fan interlock with no airflow present, effectively bypassing this important safety feature.

HOT BOX TRASH GATE OPEN MORE THAN 20 SECONDS: This ALARM is optional for users of the Samuel Jackson Hot Box II. The pivoting trash gate on the Hot Box has remained open for more than 20 seconds allowing outside air to leak into the drying system.
