Page 13: Introduction
The clean, low relative humidity heat delivery minimizes energy costs by eliminating the need to draw in fresh outside air. With the DRYAIR system, you just reheat warm internal air, rather than heating cold external air. Fluid circulation Fluid circulation lines are designed to endure the toughest work site environment.
Page 14: Passive Heat Transfer
Hose reel The DRYAIR hose reel is capable of holding over 6000 ft. of 3/4" I.D. circulation line heat exchangers. The reel can be transported by common carrier, or slings can be used for lifting. The hose reel is forklift accessible from all four sides.
Page 15: How The Dryair System Works
How the DRYAIR System Works The DRYAIR system uses a low-pressure, open fluid loop distribution system with an atmospherically vented fluid reservoir. A hydronic water heater warms the heat transfer fluid. This heated fluid is pumped through a distribution system loop, passing through heat exchangers in remote locations.
Page 16: Setup
The positioning of all the system components on the site will be influenced by a number of factors. Please read all of the “Setup” section before beginning. Be sure to observe all local electrical codes, gas codes and fire regulations when setting up the DRYAIR system. Positioning and Handling of Water Heater Module •...
Page 17: Fuel Setup
Fuel Setup Natural Gas • The installation of natural gas lines to the DRYAIR water heater module must be performed by a licensed gas tradesperson, and must conform to all local natural gas codes for water heater appliance installations. •...
Page 18: Heat Transfer Fluid (Htf)
Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF) CAUTION! At no time should you use automobile antifreeze in your DRYAIR system. The use of automobile antifreeze will void your DRYAIR warranty. • The heat transfer fluid (HTF) level should show no more than 1/4 on the gauge (cold fluid) at start-up. As the HTF warms to operating temperature, fluid expansion will raise the level to 1/2 or 3/4 on the gauge (depending on the total volume of fluid in the circulation system).
Page 19: Operation
Make sure the gas supply is closed off and control panel toggle switchws are in the “OFF” position. • Supply power to the system. Fluid Circulation System Start-up The DRYAIR water heater cabinets, portable heat exchangers and circulation line are shipped pre- filled with heat transfer fluid. Purging Air from the “HTF” Circulation System •...
Page 20 • Toggle the pump switch (4-1) to the “On” (up) position and run the pump. This will release the air from the system. 4 - pump switch, water heater • Monitor the “heat transfer fluid level gauge” (5-1) and switch and breaker reset make sure that the heat transfer fluid level stays between 1/4 to 3/4 full at all times during this process.
Page 21: Water Heater Initial Firing
Water Heater Initial Firing Bleed gas line • With door panels removed from the front of cabinet and the heating unit, loosen the gas line union (item 1) and open exterior gas line valve (item 2) only enough to purge air from gas line. CAUTION: Propane gas is heavier than air.
Page 22 Raising “HTF” Fluid to Set Temperature First, make sure that none of the portable heat exchanger fans are in operation. The portable heat exchanger fans must be turned on in succession. Cold Structure • Plug in the first portable heat exchanger fan and verify that the fan is running.
Page 23: Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting • There are 2 red light(s) on the control panel, propane system (1 solid, 1 flashing); natural gas system (1 solid), which will indicate a condition that has caused the unit to shut down. • There are 6 green lights on the control panel, which indicate the status of a sequence of functions while the unit is running. •...
Page 24: Maintenance
Maintenance The DRYAIR system is designed to be a low maintenance system. All system equipment is assembled using extensively tested and certified components. Following these maintenance procedures will ensure the maximum benefit and minimal downtime for the system. The daily maintenance schedule is designed to be a quick system check and ensures a low risk of operating interruptions.
Page 25: Seasonal Checklist
Circulation Pump • The pump requires no special maintenance other than that specified in the manufacturer’s pump manual provided as part of the literature package with each DRYAIR system. Hoses • Periodically check all hoses for damage due to aging, elevated temperatures, over-torqued hose clamps, abrasion and weathering.
