BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Read these instructions completely and carefully.

IMPORTANTSave these instructions for local electrical inspector’s use.

IMPORTANTObserve all governing codes and ordinances.

Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer’s instructions and local codes.

Note to Installer – Be sure to leave these instructions with the Consumer.

Note to Consumer – Keep these instructions for future reference.

Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.

This dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors.

Before the old dryer is removed from service or discarded, remove the dryer door.

Service information and the wiring diagram are located in the control console.

Do not allow children on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary when the appliance is used near children.

Proper installation is the responsibility of the installer.

Product failure due to improper installation is not covered under the Warranty.

Install the dryer where the temperature is above 50°F for satisfactory operation of the dryer control system.

Remove and discard existing plastic or metal foil duct and replace with UL-listed duct.

FOR YOUR SAFETY:

WARNING – Risk of Fire

To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.

Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.

Install the clothes dryer according to these instructions and in accordance with local codes.

This dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors.

Use only 4rigid metal ducting for exhausting the clothes dryer to the outdoors.

DO NOT install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic ducting materials. If flexible metal (semi-rigid or foil-type) duct is installed, it must be UL-listed and installed in accordance with the instructions found in “Connecting the Dryer to House Vent” on page 25 of this manual. Flexible ducting materials are known to collapse, be easily crushed and trap lint. These conditions will obstruct dryer airflow and increase the risk of fire.

Do not install or store this appliance in any location where it could be exposed to water and/or weather.

The National Fuel Gas Code restricts installations of gas appliances in garages. They must be 18 inches off the ground and protected by a barrier from vehicles.

Save these instructions. (Installers: Be sure to leave these instructions with the customer.)

CALIFORNIA SAFE DRINKING WATER AND TOXIC ENFORCEMENT ACT

This act requires the governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or LP fuels. Properly adjusted dryers will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized further by properly venting the dryer to the outdoors.

FOR GAS MODELS ONLY:

NOTE: Installation and service of this dryer must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier.

In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts:

This product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter.

When using ball-type gas shut-off valves, they shall be T-handle-type.

A flexible gas connector, when used, must not exceed 3 feet.

DPGT650, UPGT650 specifications

The GE UPGT650 and DPGT650 are advanced gas turbine models developed by General Electric, known for their cutting-edge technology and high efficiency. Designed primarily for power generation and industrial applications, these gas turbines represent the latest in innovation and performance in the energy sector.

At the heart of the UPGT650 is its high-efficiency design that optimizes fuel consumption while reducing emissions. This gas turbine operates at a high pressure ratio, which significantly enhances its overall efficiency, making it a preferred choice for operators seeking to minimize operational costs while maximizing output. The UPGT650 boasts a fuel flexibility feature, enabling it to run on various fuels, including natural gas and liquid fuels, catering to different operational needs and geographical conditions.

The DPGT650 variant, specifically developed for applications requiring high reliability and performance in distributed power generation, offers similar efficiency benefits while providing enhanced operational flexibility. Its modular design allows for easy maintenance and upgrades, which is crucial for facilities needing to adapt to changing energy demands and regulatory environments.

Both turbine models incorporate advanced technologies such as advanced cooling systems to maintain optimal operating temperatures and enhance durability. The utilization of advanced materials in the turbine blades contributes to their ability to withstand high thermal and mechanical stress, further improving performance longevity. Additionally, the turbines are equipped with sophisticated control systems that enable operators to achieve precise load management and efficient power dispatch.

A critical characteristic of the UPGT650 and DPGT650 is their environmental performance. These turbines are engineered to meet stringent emissions standards, effectively reducing CO2 and NOx emissions. This makes them suitable for regions with strict environmental regulations, appealing to companies focused on sustainability and environmental responsibility.

In summary, the GE UPGT650 and DPGT650 gas turbines stand out in the energy landscape for their efficiency, reliability, and environmental performance. With features like fuel flexibility, advanced cooling technologies, and modular design, they are poised to meet the evolving demands of the power generation industry, driving the transition towards cleaner and more efficient energy systems.
