D. THE BASKET AND SUPPORT ASSEMBLY

The basket and support assembly is designed for 80 lbs. (36 km) of dry material. It is supported by a shaft and two (2) bearings.

E.TEMPERATURE SENSOR BRACKET ASSEMBLY

This bracket assembly is equipped with two (2) important devices. One is the temperature probe and the other is the 225º F (107º C) basket hi-limit. The temperature probe senses the temperature in the basket and sends a signal to the computer to read that temperature. This sensor is also known as the “TEMP SENSOR FAIL” sensor. The 225º F (107º C) thermostat is a safety device to shut down the gas valve in a case of the temperature exceeding 225º F (107º C).

F. TUMBLER BEARING ASSEMBLY

The bearing box is the holder for the pillow block bearing and it also has the adjustments for the basket on it. The bearings are what support the tumbler support and basket to the dryer. The rotational sensor is another safety device to stop the motor if it senses the basket has stopped during a cycle.
