SECTION III

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Installation should be performed by competent technicians in accordance with local and state codes. In the absence of these codes, the installation must conform to applicable American National Standards: ANSI Z223.1-LATEST EDITION (National Fuel Gas Code) or ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-LATEST EDITION (National Electrical Code) or in Canada, the installation must conform to applicable Canadian Standards: CAN/CGA-B149.1-M91 (Natural Gas) or CAN/CGA-B149.2-M91 (Liquid Propane [L.P.] Gas) or LATEST EDITION (for General Installation and Gas Plumbing) or Canadian Electrical Codes Parts 1 & 2 CSA C22.1-1990 or LATEST EDITION (for Electrical Connections).

A. ENCLOSURE, AIR SUPPLY, AND EXHAUST REQUIREMENTS

NOTE: The following information is very brief and general. For a detailed description refer to the installation booklet for non-coin dryers.

Bulkheads and partitions around the dryer should be made of noncombustible materials. Allowances should be made for the opening and closing of the control door and lint door. Also, allowances should be made in the rear for ease of maintenance. (Refer to installation manual for recommended distances and minimum allowances required.)

When the dryer is operating, it draws in room air, heats it, passes the air through the tumbler, and exhausts it out 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 on gas dryers may result, and you also could have premature motor failure from overheating. On electric dryers, premature electric element failure may result. Air supply must be given careful consideration to ensure proper performance of each dryer.

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.

Exhaust ductwork should be designed and installed by a qualified professional. Improperly sized ductwork will create excessive back pressure, which will result in slow drying, increased use of energy, and shutdown of the burner by the airflow (sail) switch.

CAUTION: IMPROPERLY SIZED OR INSTALLED OR MAINTAINED (CLEANED) EXHAUST DUCTWORK CAN CREATE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

With a maximum drying capacity of 30 pounds, the AD-30 features a robust construction that can withstand the demands of heavy usage. Its powerful airflow technology ensures quick drying times, improving productivity and minimizing energy consumption. The dryer is equipped with a microprocessor control that offers multiple cycle options and customizable settings, allowing operators to tailor each drying cycle based on the specific fabric types being processed.

On the other hand, the AD-25 serves smaller operations with a capacity of 25 pounds, making it an efficient choice for businesses with moderate laundry needs. Similar to the AD-30, it incorporates advanced airflow technology to enhance drying efficiency. The AD-25 also features easy-to-use controls and programmable settings, providing flexibility for various drying requirements. Both models come with an easy-to-clean lint filter that helps maintain optimal air quality and prolongs the life of the machine.

In terms of construction, both dryers are built with durability in mind.
