L. COMPRESSED AIR REQUIREMENTS
This model dryer requires an external supply of compressed air (3.5 cfh at 80 psi [0.09 cmh at 5.51 bar] for gas
models and 4.25 cfh at 80 psi [0.12 cmh at 5.51 bar] for steam models). For steam models, compressed air is
necessary for the air (standard) operated steam damper. (No damper is provided with [optional] steam solenoid
valve.) On both the steam models as well as the gas models, compressed air is necessary/required for blower air
jet operation to clean lint from the impellor/fan (squirrel cage).

2. Air Regulation
No air regulation or air filtration is provided with the dryer. External regulation/filtration of 80 psi (5.51 bar)
must be provided. It is suggested that a filter/regulator/gauge arrangement be added to the compressed
air line just before the dryer connection. This is necessary to ensure that correct and clean air pressure is
achieved.
