3.Single Dryer Venting

When possible, it is suggested that a separate exhaust duct be provided for each dryer. The exhaust ductwork should be laid out in such a way that the ductwork travels as directly as possible to the outdoors with as few turns as possible. It is suggested that the use of 90º turns be avoided; use 30º or 45º angles instead. The shape of the exhaust ductwork is not critical so long as the minimum cross-sectional area is provided.

IMPORTANT: Exhaust back pressure measured by a manometer at the dryer exhaust duct area must be no less than 0 and must not exceed 0.3 inches (0.74 mb) of water column (W.C.).

If the length of the ductwork run or quantity of elbows used exceeds the specifications noted in this manual, the cross-sectional area of the ductwork must be increased in proportion to the number of elbows or duct run added.

a. Single Dryer Venting - with each basket (tumbler) independently vented ALL the way to the outdoors.

IMPORTANT: For extended ductwork runs or where numerous elbows are used, the cross-sectional area can only be increased to an extent and a professional heating, venting, and air conditioning (HVAC) firm should be consulted for proper venting information.

IMPORTANT: UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES can the dryer be vented to the outdoors using a 6-inch (15.24 cm) diameter exhaust duct!!!

When independent exhaust ducting is used for each basket (tumbler), the connection size at the point where the internal ducting (6-inch [15.24 cm] diameter) leaves the dryer, the minimum size connection is 8-inches (20.32 cm) in diameter (54 square inches [348.4 square centimeters] cross-sectional area) and this is only true providing: (Refer to the illustration on page 17 for details.)

1)The maximum duct run is no more than 15 feet (4.6 meters).

2)The ductwork is on a horizontal run (no riser).

3)There is no more than one (1) elbow, which includes the outside outlet (i.e., elbow used for outside protection).

IMPORTANT: Even though the dryer’s exhaust outlet size is 6-inches (15.24 cm) in diameter (at both the top basket [tumbler] elbow where it leaves the dryer), the minimum connection at this point of exit from the dryer is 8-inches (20.32 cm) in diameter (54 square inches [348.4 square centimeters] cross-sectional area).

Among its noteworthy offerings are the ADG-530D II and WDA-530D II models, both of which stand out for their advanced technologies, user-friendly features, and robust construction. These models are designed to meet the needs of laundromats, hotels, and other commercial laundry facilities, providing reliability and efficiency.

The ADG-530D II is a dual-pocket dryer that combines efficiency with superior drying performance. One of its main features is its powerful and energy-efficient heating system, which utilizes advanced airflow technology to reduce drying times while minimizing energy consumption. This model is equipped with a state-of-the-art microprocessor control system that allows for precise temperature and time settings, enhancing flexibility for various fabric types. Additionally, the ADG-530D II includes a large capacity that can accommodate various load sizes, making it an ideal choice for heavy daily usage.

On the other hand, the WDA-530D II model serves a slightly different purpose with a focus on wet cleaning. This innovative machine offers exceptional water extraction capabilities, ensuring that fabrics retain as little moisture as possible, which also contributes to quicker drying times. The WDA-530D II utilizes advanced technology to balance water levels and optimize washing cycles, thereby extending the life of the fabrics and improving overall cleanliness. Its easy-to-use interface simplifies operation, making it suitable for staff with varying levels of experience.

Both models incorporate durable construction materials designed to withstand heavy use in busy environments. Their design prioritizes ease of maintenance, featuring removable lint screens and efficient drainage systems that streamline cleaning and upkeep. User safety is also a priority, with built-in safety features to prevent overheating and ensure reliable operation.

In summary, the ADG-530D II and WDA-530D II by American Dryer Corp represent a blend of cutting-edge technology, user-friendly features, and robust design. Whether for drying or wet cleaning, these machines are engineered to enhance productivity in commercial laundry operations while delivering exceptional performance. Their commitment to energy efficiency and fabric care makes them an excellent investment for any laundry facility looking to enhance their operational efficiency and service quality.
