Page 2: Fm Dryers
FM DRYERS FEATURES: The FM series dryers are the traditional dryer and hopper where the dryer is on the floor positioned next to the molding machine and the hopper is mounted on top of the molding machine. They are ideal where floor space is limited and material changes are infrequent. The FM dryer series utilize the HP4-X four bed design that provides a constant supply of dry air to the material hopper. - Page 3 STC Smart Touch Controls The FM series are supplied with the Smart Touch Control (STC). The new STC (Smart Touch Control) was introduced for optimum operation of the dryer and is as user friendly as possible. The easy-to-see, menu driven HMI allows access to all operating parameters and enables the operator to navigate through all settings and data.

Page 5: Installation Procedure
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE Electrical Connection: Open electrical access door on the front of the machine by turning the disconnect off and turning the lower clamping screw 1/2 turn counterclockwise. Locate the disconnect by following the operating handle down to the electrical panel. Insert the incoming power cable or conduit through the hole provided on the side of the machine. -
Page 6: Quick Start-Up Guide
QUICK START-UP GUIDE Operating this unit is very simple. Once the dryer is connected to the facility power supply, the unit can be started by turning the disconnect handle located in the upper right-hand corner of the electrical panel enclosure to the ON position and pressing the START button on the HMI. To shut the dryer off, simply push the STOP button on the HMI. - Page 7 Control Circuit: 11. Using the PLC motherboard indicator lights as a guide for the dryer regeneration cycle, check that all inputs/outputs are proper for the part of the regeneration cycle that the machine is in. 12. Monitor the PLC output lights to ensure the corresponding LED on the power solid state relay is illuminated and there is an output voltage to the heater.

SMART TOUCH CONTROLS GUIDE MAIN OPERATING SCREEN: The operating screen displays all of the dryer performance information in an easy-to-read format visible from a long distance. The large STOP/START button is incorporated into the screen rather than being located remotely. All common operator inputs are located on this main screen including starting and stopping the dryer, closed loop loader... -
Page 11: System Setup Screen
SYSTEM SETUP SCREEN: To enter the setup screen, first tap the main menu button in the top right of the touch screen, then select the “SETUP” button. All of the parameters of the dryer are accessed through this screen that is very explanative. To access the area of interest, simply press the associated button. -
Page 12: Factory Settings
To enter a start or stop time, press the time box on the day selected and a keypad will be displayed to make the entry desired. Note that 99 in the hour field turns off the time for that setting. All times are displayed in military time where the day is 24 hours. -
Page 13: Setback (Option)
SETBACK (OPTION) Temperature setback allows the dryer to automatically lower the process temperature after a period of time to keep from over drying the material. Here you can enable or disable the setback as well as setting setback parameters. The factory set parameters will work for most setback applications. - Page 14 Restore Temp = The temperature that the setback thermocouple must drop down to or below for it to come out setback and revert to the original setpoint. (Settable 0-999℉) Factory default settings will work fine for most temperature setback applications.

Page 15: Loader Receiver (Option)
LOADER RECEIVER (OPTION) For those dryers with the closed-loop loader option to load the dried material to the press, this screen is used to configure the loading cycle. The FILL TIME is the time in seconds the loader sends material to the receiver and is normally in the range of 5 to 10 seconds. -
Page 16: Recipe Menu
RECIPE MENU: *PDII Pictured The process temperature can also be set using the RECIPE MENU screen. From the MAIN OPERATING SCREEN, press the MAIN MENU, then press the RECIPE button to access this screen.
