D. HSI (HOT SURFACE IGNITION) MODULE

(Gas Models ONLY)

The HSI (Hot Surface Ignition) system consists of a microprocessor (computer) based control module, along with an ignitor/flame-probe assembly. This control utilizes a 24 V carbide ignitor and a rectified flame sensor/probe signal to locally control ALL basic functions in the gas burner.

E. GAS BURNER ASSEMBLY

Gas heated dryers are equipped with a gas burner assembly consisting of four (4) burner tubes, gas valve, HSI ignitor, sail switch, and hi-limit thermostat. The inlet piping enters through the rear of the dryer on the left hand side (viewing from the front) and runs to the front of the dryer where the gas valve is located.

F. DRIVE MOTOR

The T.E.F.C. (Totally Enclosed, Fan-Cooled) drive motor is located approximately lower center of the dryer. It sits on an adjustable base so that the motor can be easily adjusted to the left or right, up or down. The drive motor is a 1 HP (0.75 kw) motor and operates on 208 to 460 volts, 3-phase (3ø), 50/60 Hz.
