    (refer to Exhaust Requirements in Section E). IMPORTANT: The dryer should be located where a minimum amount of exhaust duct will be necessary. 9. The dryer must be installed with adequate clearance for air openings into the combustion chamber. American Dryer Corp. 113289 - 10...
  • Page 19: Unpacking / Setting Up

    CAUTION: This dryer produces combustible lint and must be exhausted to the outdoors. Every 6 months, inspect the exhaust ducting and remove any lint buildup. IMPORTANT: The dryer must be installed in a location/environment, which the ambient temperature remains between 40° F (4.44° C) and 130° F (54.44° C). B.

    C. DRYER ENCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS Bulkheads and partitions should be made of noncombustible material. NOTE: Allowances must be made for opening the control door. A 38-inches (96.52 cm) recommended minimum clearance for loading the dryer. B The maximum thickness of the bulkhead for gas dryers is 4-inches (10.16 cm). For electric and steam dryers the maximum thickness of the bulkhead is 1-inch (2.54 cm) within 3-inches (7.62 cm) from the top of the control door.
  • Page 22: Fresh Air Supply Requirements

    Make-up air that is contaminated by dry cleaning solvent fumes will result in irreparable damage to the motors and other dryer components. NOTE: Component failure due to dry cleaning solvent fumes will VOID THE WARRANTY. American Dryer Corp. 113289 - 10...
  • Page 23: Exhaust Requirements

    E. EXHAUST REQUIREMENTS 1. General Exhaust Ductwork Information Exhaust ductwork should be designed and installed by a qualified professional. Improperly sized ductwork will create excessive back pressure, which results in slow drying, increased use of energy, overheating of the dryer, and shutdown of the burner by the airflow (sail) switches, burner hi-limits, or tumbler hi-heat thermostats.
  • Page 24 Such ducts shall be equivalent in strength and corrosion resistance to ducts made of galvanized sheet steel not less than 26 gauge (0.0195 inches [0.5 mm]) thick.” American Dryer Corp. 113289 - 10...
  • Page 25 Horizontal Venting: When single dryer horizontal venting is used, the length of ductwork from the dryer to the outside exhaust outlet must not exceed 45 feet (13.71 meters). For the 202, the minimum diameter of this ductwork must be at least 20-inches (50.8 cm), for the 202 (AGA) 18-inches (45.7 cm), and for the 202DR 12-inches (30.4 cm).
  • Page 26 IMPORTANT: This dryer is not provided with a back draft damper. When exhausted into a multiple (common) exhaust line, a back draft damper must be installed at each dryer duct. IMPORTANT: No more than three (3) dryers should be connected to one (1) main common duct. American Dryer Corp. 113289 - 10...
  • Page 27 The main duct may be any shape or cross-sectional area, as long as the minimum cross section area is provided. The illustration below shows the minimum cross section area for multiple dryer round or square venting. These figures must be increased 10 square inches (64.52 square centimeters) when rectangular main ducting is used, and the ratio of duct width to depth should not be greater than 3-1/2 to 1.
  • Page 28 NOTE: When the exhaust ductwork passes through a wall, ceiling, or roof made of combustible materials, the opening must be 2-inches (5.08 cm) larger than the duct (all the way around). The duct must be centered within this duct. American Dryer Corp. 113289 - 10...
  • Page 29: Electrical Information

    Outside Ductwork Protection To protect the outside end of the horizontal ductwork from the weather, a 90° elbow bent downward should be installed where the exhaust exits the building. If the exhaust ductwork travels vertically up through the roof, it should be protected from the weather by using a 180° turn to point the opening downward.
  • Page 30 WARNING: 208 VAC AND 240 VAC ARE NOT THE SAME. Any damage done to dryer components due to improper voltage connections will automatically VOID THE WARRANTY. NOTE: ADC reserves the right to make changes in specifications at any time without notice or obligation. American Dryer Corp. 113289 - 10...
  • Page 31 3. Electrical Connections NOTE: A wire diagram is included with each dryer and is affixed to the back side of the top control (access) door. The only electrical input connections to the dryer are the 3-phase (3ø) power leads (L1, L2, and L3), GROUND, and in the case of 4 wire service, the NEUTRAL.
  • Page 32: Gas Information

    (609.6 meters) is made by changing each burner orifice. If this conversion is necessary, contact the reseller who sold the dryer or contact the ADC factory. IMPORTANT: THIS GAS DRYER IS NOT PROVIDED WITH AN INTERNAL GAS SUPPLY SHUT OFF AND AN EXTERNAL SHUT OFF MUST BE PROVIDED. American Dryer Corp. 113289 - 10...

  • Page 34 NOTE: The dryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure test of the gas supply system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). American Dryer Corp. 113289 - 10...
  • Page 35 113289 - 10 www.adclaundry.com...
  • Page 36: Steam Information

    The presence of condensate in the steam supply line will cause water hammer and subsequent heat exchanger (steam coil) failure. The steam supply connection into the main supply line must be made with a minimum 10-inch (25.4 cm) riser. This will prevent any condensate from draining towards the dryer. American Dryer Corp. 113289 - 10...
  • Page 37 b. The steam supply line to the dryer must include a 12-inch (30.48 cm) riser along with a drip trap and check valve. This will prevent any condensate from entering the steam coil. c. Flexible hoses or couplings must be used. The dryer vibrates slightly when it runs and this will cause the steam coil connections to crack if they are hard piped to the supply and return mains.
  • Page 38 NOTE: With the dryer off or with no air supply, the steam damper is in cool down mode as shown in Diagram 2 at the top of page 35. American Dryer Corp. 113289 - 10...
  • Page 39 6. Steam Damper Air Piston (Flow Control) Operation Adjustment Although the steam damper operation was tested and adjusted prior to shipping at 80 psi (5.51 bar), steam damper operation must be checked before the dryer is put into operation (refer to the illustration above for correct steam damper operation).
  • Page 40: Preparation For Operation / Start-Up

    14. STEAM MODELS – Check to ensure ALL steam shutoff valves are open. 15. STEAM MODELS with Standard Pneumatic Damper – Check steam damper operation. 16. STEAM MODELS with Optional Steam Solenoid Valve – Check steam solenoid valve connections. American Dryer Corp. 113289 - 10...
  • Page 41: Preoperational Test

    J. PREOPERATIONAL TEST ALL dryers are thoroughly tested and inspected before leaving the factory. However, a preoperational test should be performed before the dryer is publicly used. It is possible that adjustments have changed in transit or due to marginal location (installation) conditions. Installer must instruct the user on how to correctly operate the dryer before leaving.
