Dryer alarms are indicated by an illuminated Acknowledge Alarm light on the W
Series Dryer control panel. Shutdown alarms will energize optional audible and
visual alarm indicators.
A problem can trigger two types of alarms:
•
Shutdown: The dryer has automatically shut down because it detected a
serious problem that could damage your material or dryer.
•
Passive: The dryer continues to operate, but warns of a problem that could
prevent correct drying of your material. If ignored, this problem could lead to a
condition that will shut down the dryer.
