D. FRESH AIR REQUIREMENTS

When the dryer is operating, it draws in room air, heats it, passes this air through the basket (tumbler), 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. Ignition problems and sail switch "fluttering" problems may result, as well as premature motor failure from overheating.

Air supply (make-up air) must be given careful consideration to assure proper performance of each dryer. An unrestricted source of air is necessary for each dryer. An airflow of 600 cfm (cubic feet per minute) - 17 cmm (cubic meters per minute) must be supplied to each gas, electric, and steam dryer. As a general rule, an unrestricted air entrance from the outdoors (atmosphere) of a minimum of 1-1/4 square foot (0.12 square meters) is required for each dryer.

To compensate for the use of registers or louvers used over the openings, this make-up air must be increased by approximately thirty-three percent (33%). Make-up air openings should not be located in an area directly near where exhaust vents exit the building.

It is not necessary to have a separate make-up air opening for each dryer. Common make-up air openings are acceptable. However, they must be set up in such a manner that the make-up air is distributed equally to ALL the dryers.

EXAMPLE: For a bank of (4) dryers, two (2) unrestricted openings measuring 2 feet by 1-1/4 feet (0.61 meters by 0.38 meters), 5 square feet (0.47 square meters) is acceptable

Allowances must be made for remote or constricting passageways or where dryers are located at excessive altitudes or predominantly low pressure areas.

IMPORTANT: Make-up air must be provided from a source free of dry cleaning solvent fumes. Make-up air that is contaminated by dry cleaning solvent fumes will result in irreparable damage to the motors and other dryer components.

NOTE: Component failure due to dry cleaning solvent fumes will VOID THE WARRANTY.
