6. Start-up
Before starting up the dryer, make sure that the air inlet and outlet isolation valves are closed, and the
bypass valve is open. This will ensure there is no air flow through the dryer.
Turn the ON/OFF switch to the “I/On” position.
The Power LED (4.3.4.1) comes on (yellow) and the Coolant Pump (3.2.4) starts.
Press the ON/OFF Button (4.3.4.2).
The Power LED light turns from yellow to green, the Refrigerant Compressor (3.3.1) starts and
the digital display shows the B1 temperature reading (dryer dew point temperature).
On three-phase units (SRC-250 to 1000), if the phases are inverted, the compressor and
the fan will rotate in the wrong direction. In this case:
a) The scroll compressor is not displacing any refrigerant. It will be noisy
and the dryer will vibrate. Since the dryer is not producing any cooling
effect, after 15 minutes, the “Hd” (High dew point) warning will come on.
b) The fan is moving air in the wrong direction. This can be verified by
comparing the air flow to the air flow indicated in the User Guide and on
the name plate inside the electrical panel.
Shut down the dryer, isolate the power supply, and swap the two phases.
Let the dryer operate without air flow until the dew point drops to operating levels and the dryer begins
to cycle.
Slowly open the inlet isolation valve to pressurise the dryer, then open slowly the outlet isolation valve.
The dryer is now operating.
