SECTION II

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

A. CLEANING

A schedule should be established for periodic inspection, cleaning, and removal of lint from various areas of the dryer, as well as throughout the ductwork system. The frequency of cleaning can best be determined from experience at each location. Maximum operating efficiency is dependent upon proper air circulation. The accumulation of lint can restrict this airflow. If the guidelines in this section are met, an ADC dryer will provide many years of efficient, trouble free, and most importantly safe operation.

WARNING: LINT FROM MOST FABRICS IS HIGHLY COMBUSTIBLE. THE ACCUMULATION OF LINT CAN CREATE A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

WARNING: KEEP DRYER AREA CLEAR AND FREE FROM COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, GASOLINE, AND OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS.

NOTE: REMOVE POWER FROM THE DRYER BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE IN THE DRYER.

NOTE: Suggested time intervals shown are for average usage, which is considered six (6) to eight (8) operational (running) hours per day.

SUGGESTED CLEANING SCHEDULE

EVERY THIRD OR FOURTH LOAD

Clean the lint screen. A clogged lint screen will cause poor dryer performance. The lint screen is located in the lint drawer in the base of the dryer. Pull out the lint drawer, brush the lint off the lint screen, and remove the lint. Inspect the lint screen and replace if torn.

NOTE: The frequency of cleaning the lint screens can best be determined from experience at each location.

WEEKLY

Open the hinged panels on each side of the basket (tumbler) section and remove any lint accumulation from the basket (tumbler) drive motor, drive shafts, gear (speed) reducer, drive belts, drive wheels, and drive shaft bearings.

Slide the lint basket ALL the way out of the dryer and clean any lint accumulation off the temperature sensor bracket, which is located above the lint basket.

AD-200 specifications

The ADC AD-200 is a high-performance analog-to-digital converter designed to meet the needs of a wide range of applications including industrial automation, instrumentation, medical devices, and consumer electronics. This converter is renowned for its combination of speed, precision, and reliability.

One of the standout features of the ADC AD-200 is its exceptional resolution. Offering up to 24 bits of resolution, it provides an outstanding level of detail and accuracy in signal conversion. This high resolution makes it ideal for applications where precision is paramount, such as in audio processing and sensitive measurements in scientific research.

The AD-200 operates at a maximum sampling rate of 1 Msps (mega-samples per second), allowing it to effectively capture fast-changing signals. This speed ensures that the converter can handle dynamic input signals without missing critical data points. Additionally, the device employs a pipelined architecture, which helps to maintain high throughput while keeping latency low—an essential characteristic for real-time applications.

Another critical aspect of the AD-200 is its low input noise and distortion levels. With a total harmonic distortion (THD) of less than 0.01%, the converter maintains signal integrity even when processing high-frequency signals. This feature is crucial in audio and instrumentation applications where signal clarity and fidelity are necessary.

The ADC AD-200 is equipped with advanced digital signal processing (DSP) capabilities, allowing users to perform filtering, averaging, and other signal conditioning tasks on the incoming data stream. This built-in processing capability means users can reduce the load on external processors, streamlining system designs and improving overall efficiency.

The device supports various input voltage ranges, which makes it versatile for multiple applications. It is compatible with single-ended and differential input configurations, providing flexibility for different circuit designs and requirements.

Connectivity features include both serial and parallel interfaces, offering easy integration into various systems. The ADC also comes with a robust software development kit (SDK) that provides necessary drivers and support to facilitate quicker implementation and system optimization.

In summary, the ADC AD-200 is a versatile, high-performance analog-to-digital converter marked by its high resolution, fast sampling rate, low noise levels, integrated DSP capabilities, and flexible connectivity options. These features make it a preferred choice for engineers and developers aiming for excellence in signal processing tasks across diverse industries.
