Large Dehumidifying Dryers 
Functional Description 
20 
Material Overdrying Protection 
Material Overdrying Protection is an automatic system used to reduce the chance of over-
drying, and possibly melting, the resin in the drying hopper. Material Overdrying Protection 
activates when the return temperature is above a set value, indicating that all the resin in the 
hopper is dry.  
The control system monitors the return air temperature and automatically changes the process 
air setpoint to the SET BACK SETPOINT value when the return air temperature rises above 
the set back temperature.  The process air setpoint returns to normal when the return air 
temperature falls below the SETUP TEMPERATURE value.  The target values for 
changing the process air setpoint can be adjusted on the Mat Protect screen.
