  • Page 18: Dryer Enclosure Requirements

    C. DRYER ENCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS It is recommended that the rear of the dryer be positioned approximately 3 feet (0.91 meters) from the nearest obstruction (i.e., wall) for ease of installation, maintenance, and service. Bulkheads and partitions should be made of noncombustible materials. The bulkhead facing must not be closed in ALL the way to the top of the dryer.

  • Page 19: Fresh Air Supply Requirements

    D. FRESH AIR SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS When the dryer is operating, it draws in room air, heats it, passes this air through the tumbler (basket), and exhausts it out of the building. Therefore, the room air must be continually replenished from the outdoors. If the make-up air is inadequate, drying time and drying efficiency will be adversely affected.

  • Page 20: 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 (basket) hi-heat thermostats.
  • Page 21 a. Outside Ductwork Protection 1) To protect the outside end of 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 22 b. Vertical Venting Where possible, it is suggested to provide a separate exhaust duct for each dryer. The exhaust duct should be laid out in such a way that the ductwork travels as directly as possible to the outdoors with as few turns as possible.
  • Page 23 14-inch (35.56 cm [minimum for gas dryers or electric dryers]) or 16-inch (40.64 cm [minimum for steam dryers]) duct is added. IMPORTANT: The CG115-25 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.
  • Page 24 The main duct may be any shape or cross-sectional area, so long as the minimum cross section area is provided. The illustration on page 21 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 26 14-inch (35.56 cm [minimum for gas, electric, or steam dryers]) duct is added. IMPORTANT: The CG115-25 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.
  • Page 27 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 opening. d. Outside Ductwork Protection 1) To protect the outside end of the horizontal ductwork from the weather, a 90°...

  • Page 37 NOTE: The dryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

  • Page 38: Steam Information

    VOID THE WARRANTY. NOTE: The CG115-25 is manufactured with a pneumatic (piston) damper system which requires an external supply of clean, dry, regulated air (80 PSI ± 10 PSI [552 kPa ± 69 kPa]). Refer to Steam Damper Air System Connections , Section H, item 4.
  • Page 39 a. The pressure of the condensate in the steam supply will cause water hammer and subsequent heat exchanger (steam coil) failure. The steam supply connection into the main supply line must be made within a minimum 12-inch (30.48 cm) riser. This will prevent any condensate from draining towards the dryer.
  • Page 40 5. Steam Damper System Operation The CG115-25 steam damper, as shown in the top illustration, Diagram 1 (Heating Mode) on page 37, allows the coil to stay constantly charged eliminating repeated expansion and contraction. When the damper is opened, the air immediately passes through the already hot coil, providing instant heat to start the drying process.
  • Page 41 6. Steam Damper Air Piston (Air Control) Operation Adjustment Although the damper operation was tested and adjusted prior to shipping at 80 PSI (552 kPa), steam damper operation must be checked before the dryer is put into operation. Refer to page 36 for instructions to check system damper operation.

  • Page 42: Preparation For Operation And Start-Up

    I. PREPARATION FOR OPERATION and START-UP The following items should be checked before attempting to operate the dryer: 1. Read ALL “CAUTION,” “WARNING,” and “DIRECTION” labels attached to the dryer. 2. Check incoming supply voltage to be sure that it is the same as indicated on the dryer data label that is affixed to either the backside of the upper control door or left side panel/wall area behind the control door.

  • Page 43: Preoperational Tests

    J. PREOPERATIONAL TESTS 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. 1.
  • Page 44 2) The dryer is equipped with a Direct Spark Ignition (DSI) system which has internal diagnostics. If ignition is not established after the first attempt the DSI module will attempt two (2) more times.
