4.0 INITIAL START- UP PROCEDURE
Fill the hopper completely with material and adjust the temperature
controller to 60º F. Push the on/off switch to the “ON” position and check the blower for proper
rotation by observing the rotation of the motor at the end facing the control box. The proper
rotation is indicated by an arrow on the blower housing.
Allow the unit to dry-cycle for 24 hours with the hopper filled with material before operating. This
will allow the moisture adsorbed by the desiccant during transit or inactivity to be discharged.
Failure to dry cycle the unit may cause drying problems with the material. It is necessary to have
material in the hopper in order for the regeneration cycle to function properly.
5.0 OPERATING PROCEDURE
After the initial start-up period, adjust the temperature controller to the drying temperature
necessary for the material to be dried. Dry the plastic pellets for the required residence period,
which is generally two to six hours depending on the material.
After the residence period is complete, the material is dry and ready for processing. As dry
material is withdrawn from the bottom, additional material should be added to the hopper at the
same rate. (NOTE: It is extremely important to keep the hopper as full as possible for proper
drying.)
