General Information

This information is to be used when installing gas tumble dryers in countries, and/or on gases, different than the machine’s factory configuration. Tumble dryers are supplied from the factory for operation on Natural Gas 1000 Btu/cu. ft. (8914 kcal/m3), or L.P. Gas 2500 Btu/cu. ft. (22,250 kcal/m3) in the countries of GB/IE/PT/ES/IT/GR/LU/CH. To install machines in any other country or on any other gas requires some level of modification.

Models are built in two different configurations:

∙Regulated Natural Gas – Injector is sized for Natural Gas, second family, group H (E) at

20 mbar inlet pressure. Regulator/governor is operational. Gas valve CAN be field converted to a non-regulating type.

∙Unregulated L.P. (Liquefied Petroleum) Gas – Injector is sized for L.P. Gas, third family, group 3+ at 28.37 mbar inlet pressure. Regulator/ governor is blocked open. Gas valve CAN be field-converted to a regulating type.

Serial plates supplied from the factory are configured for the countries of GB/IE/PT/ES/IT/GR/LU/CH. These instructions pertain to the situations when the country of use or gas supply is different than that on the serial plate.

Table 2 describes the different gases that are available in different CE countries, and how the machines need to be configured to operate with those gases. In the CE, there are Natural Gas configurations that do not allow for machine regulation, and L.P. Gas configurations that must be regulated. For L.P. Gas, third family B/P at 50 mbar, order Regulated Natural Gas machines and convert according to Table 2.
