DRYER INSTALLATION 1. CODE CONFORMITY: All commercial dryer installations must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1. Canadian installations must comply with the current Standard CAN/CGA-B149 (.1 or .2) Installation Code for Gas Burning Appliances or Equipment, and local codes if applicable.
3. MAKE-UP AIR: Adequate make-up air must be supplied to replace air exhausted by dryers on all types of installations. Refer to specifications for the minimum amount of make-up air opening to outside for each dryer. This is a net requirement of effective area. Screens, grills or lou vers, which will restrict the flow of air, must be considered.
6. EXHAUST INSTALLATION. (Refer to Figure 3) Exhausting of the dryer(s) should be planned and constructed so that no air restrictions occur. Any restriction due to pipe size or type of installation can cause slow drying time, excessive heat, and lint in the room. From an operational standpoint, incorrect or inadequate exhausting can cause a cycling of the high limit thermostat, which shuts off the main burners and results in inefficient drying.
Page 21
NOTE: A small diameter duct will restrict airflow; a large diameter duct will reduce air 7. DRYER IGNITION (SOLID STATE IGNITION): The solid-state ignition system lights the main burner gas by spark. velocity - both contributing to lint build up. An inspection door should be provided for The gas is ignited and burns only when the gas-relay (in the electronic controller) calls for heat.
DESCRIPTION OF DRYER CONTROL Both dryers are operated by the controller at the left midpoint of the dryer. The controller is two- in-one with the upper display and lights dedicated to the upper dryer and lower display and lights dedicated to the lower dryer. When money has been deposited, the control will prompt the user to choose a drying temperature and press the “start”...

TRANSIENT VOLTAGE SURGE SUPPRESSORS Like most electrical equipment your new machine can be damaged or have its life shortened by voltage surges due to lightning strikes which are not covered by factory warranty. Local power distribution problems also can be detrimental to the life of electrical components. We recommend the installation of transient voltage surge suppressors for your new equipment.

PROGRAMMING THE DRYER CONTROL The dryer control can be programmed to prompt the user for alternate vend prices, change dryer cycle times, temperatures and many other options. This can be accomplished in two ways: 1. Manual programming utilizing the “Start”, “High”, “Medium” and “Low” buttons for the bottom dryer.
Page 37
When manual programming mode is entered, the “Start”, “High”, “Medium” and “Low” buttons for the lower dryer perform alternate functions. Please note that the changes made using the lower dryer buttons affect both upper and lower dryers. Button Name Alternate Function in Programming Mode Start Becomes the action to accept the displayed option or the “Enter”...
Page 38
These alternate functions allow the user to move through a menu of options to choose various program- mable settings. The figure below shows the top level menu. Choosing an option from the top level menu will then display the next level of options (the sub menu). Quick Test Option: When the Quick Test Option is chosen, the dryer will begin a shortened dry cycle without the displayed vend price being met.
Page 39
Continuous Test Option: Similar to the Quick Test, when the Continuous Test Option is chosen, the dryer will begin a dry cycle with- out the displayed vend price being met. However, in this case, it will be a continuously-running cycle. It will not time out after any designated amount of time.

It also al- lows the user to return the values to factory defaults. 1. “TEMP SETTINGS” allows the user to make adjustments, within a designated range, to the cycling temperature for each of the “Low”, “Medium”...
Page 44
Temperature Pricing Option: This option allows the user to require additional vend amounts be added based on the drying temperature chosen by the customer. This pricing adder is effective only for the Base Vend Price (it does not affect the Extend Dry Price).
Page 45
Settings Options: The Settings options allow for the user to make various programming changes to change how the control operation affects the customer. See below for detailed information on each next level option. 1. “Decimal Point”: If the user programs the Decimal Point to “OFF”, control display will not show a decimal point on any vend price values.
Page 46
8. “Shift Hours”: This feature allows the user to shift the time used by the control from the time kept internally by the control. The control uses a Real Time Clock (RTC) to internally track the time and date. The RTC continues operation even if the control loses external power. The RTC is set for Central Standard Time and no daylight savings.

DC50X2 Reversing 60Hz. Wiring Schematic Dryer Idle - No Coins Added: Top Dryer Used For This Example 208/240 VAC 60 Hz. power is supplied to the main power trminal block and comes out on BLK/RED and BLK/BLU wire. 208/240 VAC now passes to the motor control relay (R1&R2) and also passes to the multi- tap control step-down transformer.
Heat Circuit Top Dryer Used For This Example With the blower motor running, 24 VAC provided through the centrifugal switch on the red wire and con- necting to the violet wire to the computer board gas relay. The temperature sensing probe is found under each tumbler in the lint tray area and sends resistance values back to the computer board for temperature sensing.
End of Cycle Top Dryer Used For This Example At the end of the cool down, the computer board opens the upper run relay, which removes power from the blower motor control relay (R1) and also removes power to the (R3) tumble relay which deactivates the variable frequency drive and motor.
Service Procedures Clothes Door Removal 1. The clothes door may be removed from the hinge bracket by unscrewing and removing the allen- head pivot screw located at the door upper hinge point. 2. Next lean the door out of the top of the hinge bracket and lift the door from the bottom hinge pin.
B. Manual Reset Over Temperature Safety Thermostats- The second hi-limit thermostat is located on the right side of each burner housing as you view from the back of the machine. It is just above the gas valve and covered by a guard with a small access hole. 1.
Electronic Control Diagnostic Lights The electronic control has 6 diagnostic lights to aid in service of the dryer. Each pocket has indicator lights for the motor circuit, door switch circuit, and the heat circuit. When the electronic control is carefully unlocked and moved forward these lights are visible on the circuit board.
Upper Front Panel Removal The loading door does not have to be removed to remove the front panels on this model. 1. Remove the left two screws with finish washers. 2. Remove the right two screws with finish washers, at this time the front panel is loose but connected by the harness to the door switch.
4. Lift idler pulley straight up and block up or tie up in the extended position. 5. Remove the seven 7/16 nuts holding the blower motor assembly. Rocking the assembly to the left should allow you to remove the assembly. 6.
Ignition System-Function & Sequence During normal dryer operation, the following occurs: 1. The dryer electronic control calls for heat. 2. If the drive motor is running, the motor safety circuit provides power to the electronic control. If the control senses that the heat should be on, a circuit is closed allowing power through the high limit thermostat and air flow switch to the ignition transformer.
Main Burner Orifice Removal 1. Remove manifold and gas valve assembly as above. 2. Using an open end wrench, remove orifices from manifold. Main Burner Removal 1. Remove the 4 screws securing the cover for the burner housing and the one screw mounting the high limit cover.
Trouble Shooting Electronic Control Diagnostic Lights The electronic control has 6 diagnostic lights to aid in service of the dryer.
