14.0 PRE-OPERATING SYSTEM CHECK
Once material, vacuum hose, water and electrical connections are made, the NWB-DC Series
dryer should be given a final checkout.
14.1 Starting The Dryer
Turn the main disconnect switch
to “ON” position to power the dryer.
Depress the GREEN START switch on the front panel to start the dryer.
The blowers and heaters are now energized and the desiccant wheel will begin turning
and start to dry the return air.
It will take several minutes and a couple revolutions
of the wheel, for the dew point to get down to the -40° dew point.
WARNING: Always use the Green/Red switch to START or STOP the dryer.
The Power Disconnect switch should only be used in True Emergency conditions.
Repeated use of Power Disconnect can cause dryer component failure.
14.2 Checking Electrical Phase
Your NOVATEC NWB-DC Dryer includes Phase Detection. This is particularly important for
dryers that may be moved around the plant. When you turn the MAIN Disconnect switch to
the ON position, a Pop-Up Alarm will appear on the screen if the connection is not correct.
You should immediately correct this condition.
WARNING:
Any wiring procedure should only be done by a qualified electrician familiar with three phase
electrical wiring.
14.3 Changing From F° to C°
Degrees can be set to C or F on the NOVATEC SCREEN…
Basic Machine Configuration. (See page 27)
NOTE:
All dryers are set to display temperatures in degrees F when shipped.
