Clean Out Procedure
Clean Out dumps the Heating Hopper or the Vacuum Chamber or both at the same time.
The following explains how to perform these procedures.
HEATING HOPPER HOT SURFACES:
As with all dryers, there are
HOT SURFACES
to avoid. Temperatures can
reach 350F, (180C). Typically these surfaces are not at dangerous
temperatures, however all hot surfaces should be avoided.
Do Not Perform a Clean Out Unless ULTRA-1000 Dryer is First Properly Shut
Down.
For proper shutdown proceedure, see Startup and Operation on page 26.
During the Clean Out, keep hands and tools clear of all valves. DO NOT reach
into machine during Clean Out.
Using the Heating Hopper Clean Out
The Heating Hopper has a front side door for access to the
full internal height of the Heating Hopper. The Heating
Hopper is non-removable. Prior to opening the front access
door, removal of all material is recommended. Material in
the Heating Hopper can be evacuated using the Heating
Hopper Manual Drain Valve located on the right-side base
of the Heating Hopper. To evacuate material from the
Heating Hopper using the Heating Hopper Manual Dump Valve, use 3-inch tubing to direct the
material into a holding bin.
Note: use of the Heating Hopper Manual Dump Valve is optional. Material can be dumped into
the vacuum chamber, then into the retention hopper and conveyed away from the VTA at the
base of the dryer.
