Cabinet Series Dehumidifying Dryer

Chapter 3:   Installation 
3-1  Positioning Your Dryer 
The dehumidifying dryer system was designed to be wheeled into place. The entire assembly is 
mounted on a rugged, compact frame and is equipped with sturdy, 4” (10 cm) heavy-duty casters, 
two locking and two swivel. 
Caution! 
Use caution and observe safety rules when placing your dryer! 
3-2 Making 
Electrical 
Connections 
;
  Fulfill all national, state, and local safety and electrical code requirements. 
;
  Connections should be made by a qualified electrician. 
;
  Make sure all electrical connections are tight. 
;
  Connect main power to the dryer at the disconnect or terminals in the upper right corner 
of the control enclosure. 
;
  Install a fused disconnect with a lockout feature in the power main leading to the dryer. 
;
  The power drop must include a ground wire. 
WARNING! 
Proper grounding of the main power line is critical! 
3-3  Connecting Compressed Air 
Connect compressed air to the dryer before operation. 
Caution! 
Excessive air pressure damages the neoprene components of the 
air distribution valve. 
Connect the air supply, using a ¼” NPT fitting, to a clean, dry, lightly lubricated source of 80 psi 
(551 kPa/5.51 bars) compressed air.  A pressure gauge and regulator are recommended 
components of your plant air supply.   
The compressed air indicator switch prevents the dryer from starting without an 80 psi (551 
kPa/5.51 bars) air supply. If the air supply drops to below 60 psi (413 kPa/ 4.13bars) during 
operation, the dryer shuts down until at least 80 psi (551 kPa/5.51 bars) is restored. 
3-4  Checking for Proper Blower Rotation 
Three-Phase Models  
The blower rotates properly when air flows from the delivery outlet and a vacuum is felt on the 
blower inlet. 
Caution! 
In three-phase models, incorrect phasing of power leads can cause 
backward rotation of blower motors and CONTAMINATION OF 
THE DESICCANT!  Always check blower rotation before putting 
material in the drying hopper! 
If the three-phase blower rotates improperly, reverse any two wires at the fused disconnect 
outside the dryer or at the disconnect/terminal in the control enclosure. This assures that the 
blower rotates in the proper direction.
