Dryer Master DM510
Operations Manual
System Components
The standard DM510 system includes the following components:
•
DM510 control panel (with remote I/O option)
•
Inlet and outlet grain moisture sensors with integrated product temperature sensors
•
Calibration push button
•
Drying air temperature sensor or signal converter
(to access dryer’s
plenum temp reading)
•
Outlet moisture sensor chute with rotary feed (bypass or inline version)
•
Internet connectivity capability
There is also an optional printer available for the continuous reporting of dryer operation and
results. This can be useful for customers not using the internet connectivity feature.
DM510 Control Panel including I/O:
The DM510 is a computer system complete with user interface keypad and the display screen, I/O
system and the capability to provide real time information through an internet connection to an
internet capable device. The DM510 Control Panel is typically installed in the control room close to
the dryer where it can be readily accessed by the operator. The I/O can be located remotely using a
wired connection for short distances or a wireless connection for longer distances (requires optional
wireless modems).
The Printer (Optional):
The DM510 uses the printer to provide reports such as: Continuous Averages, Hourly Summaries,
and Daily Summaries etc. These are tools that can be used to manage the total drying process.
Inlet Moisture and Temperature Sensor:
The inlet moisture and temperature sensor is installed in the flow of the product before it enters the
drying zone (hot zone) of the dryer, typically in the garner or holding bin above the hot zone.
Outlet Moisture and Temperature Sensor & Chute with Rotary Feed:
The outlet moisture and temperature sensor is installed after the exit of the dryer, typically using the
outlet moisture sensor chute with rotary feed (either the inline or bypass version).
Calibration Push Button:
The calibration button is installed near the operator sampling point for product exiting the dryer,
usually in close proximity to the outlet moisture sensor.
Drying Air Temperature Sensor or Temperature Signal Converter:
A temperature sensor is installed in the heating chamber in close proximity to the dryer
’
s existing
drying air temperature sensor to monitor the drying air temperature. Some systems will instead use
a temperature signal converter
to use the dryer’s temperature reading
.
Internet Connectivity Capability:
Connect your DM510 to an internet enabled router or wireless hotspot (via Ethernet cable) and you
access your system remotely via a desktop PC, smartphone or tablet. Simply use your browser to go
to my.dryermaster.com and login using the login information that came with your system.
