6.0 COMPRESSED AIR CONNECTION
The touch screen control operates a dual station vacuum valve inside the dryer to activate
vacuum to either the hopper receiver or the machine mount receiver. A clean compressed air
supply (60-
90 psi) should be connected to the 1/8” NPT inlet.
7.0 HOPPER EXTENSIONS
If you ordered a hopper extension, it will be a bolt-on type. The extension will be installed at
the factory if the overall height of the unit fits into a standard height truck for shipping. If the
unit is too tall for the extension to be factory-mounted, it will be shipped in a separate
container and must be installed at the processor’s plant.
8.0 ADJUSTABLE DIFFUSER CONE POSITIONING
IMPORTANT FOR PROPER DRYING
We have found that processors can improve the efficiency of
their drying process by adjusting the position of the diffuser
cone as described below.
You are now ready to proceed to Dryer Setup.
See QuickCard attached to dryer.
Use bolts supplied to
mount the extension to the
top of the hopper.
Bolt top of hopper to the
extension
– lift into place -
then bolt the extension to
the top of the hopper.
The diffuser cone should be placed in the
lower position (shown) when drying virgin
resin or resin with a low percentage of
regrind.
When drying resin with a high % of regrind,
spread the clip, raise the cone and place the
clip through the lower set of holes.
Clip through upper
set of holes for low
% of regrind.
Clip through lower
set of holes for high
% of regrind to raise
level of cone.
