The dryer is provided with two (2) 1/2” N.P.T. inlet pipe connections (one for each basket/tumbler) at the
rear of the dryer. If a separate feed is provided for each basket (tumbler) from the main supply line
(header), then a 1/2” (12.7 mm) line connection is sufficient. However, if the top and bottom basket
(tumbler) connections are connected together, the supply from the header
must be increased to 3/4-inch

recommended that a gas shutoff valve be provided to the gas supply line of each dryer for ease in servicing.
