Cage; Cage Drive; Button Trap; Level Controller - BÖWE P 12 Instruction Manual

7 Functional Units

7.7 Cage

The cage has dynamically channeled holes for optimum airflow during drying.

7.8 Cage Drive

The cage drive is an adjustable V-belt drive with 3 V-belts.

7.9 Button Trap

The button trap strainer catches large impurities (such as buttons, etc.) and lint from the detergent
solution. Never operate the system without the button trap strainer! (Risk of damaging the solvent
pump).
During the drying, a flow of air dries the dirty lint in the button trap mat.

7.10 Level Controller

The computer control system sets the low level in a time-controlled process.
A capacitive sensor controls the high level.

7.11 Lint Filter

The lint filter catches the lint that is carried along in the airflow. The lint filter is in the button trap housing.
Never operate the system without the lint filter! Never use a damaged lint filter! Make sure that the lint
filter sits firmly in place.
(Risk of lint on the cooling register)

7.12 Airshaft

The refrigeration unit is integrated with the cooler and pre-heater in the airshaft.

7.12.1 Refrigeration Unit

Refrigeration technology is used to cool the air cooler in the airshaft and, in special cases
(optional equipment), for cooling the solvent.
The low aftercooler temperature of the air cooler reduces the solvent
residue concentration in the cage and the solvent emissions.
The heated gas that arises in the cooling compressor (heat pump principle) is led through the pre-
heater. The energy consumed for drying is considerably reduced because the thermal energy is fed
back in.
The air cooler is specially coated to protect against corrosion.
