HEATING HOPPER HOT SURFACES:

temperatures, however all hot surfaces should be avoided.
Do Not Perform a Clean Out Unless ULTRA-600 Dryer is First Properly Shut
Down.
For proper shutdown proceedure, see Startup and Operation on page 24.
During the Clean Out, keep hands and tools clear of all valves. DO NOT reach

Using the Heating Hopper Clean Out
The Heating Hopper has a front hatch for access to the full internal height of the Heating
Hopper. The Heating Hopper is non-removable. Prior to opening the front hatch, removal of all
material is recommended. Material in the Heating Hopper can be evacuated by dropping the

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.
