Dryer Installation
All commercial dryer installations must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with
the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1A. Canadian installations must comply with
current Standard CAN/CGA-B149 (.1 or .2) Installation Code for Gas Burning Appliances or Equipment,
and local codes if applicable. Australian installations must meet installation requirements and pipe sizing
requirements of AS/NZA 5601. The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance
with the latest edition of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA70, or, when installed in Canada, with
Standard CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1.
To connect the dryer to the supply piping, use a listed connector in compliance with the Standard for Con-
nectors for Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.24 • CSA 6.10.
Installation Clearances:
This unit may be installed at the following alcove clearances. (millimeters)
1. Left side- 0”
2. Right side- 0” *
3. Back- 18” (457) (Certied for 1” (25) clearance; however, 18” (457) clearance is neces-
sary behind the belt guard to allow servicing and maintenance.)
4. Front- 48” (1220) (to allow use of dryer)
5. Top- Refer to gure labelled “Vertical Clearance Dimensions”.
Certication allows 0” clearance at the top 1” (25) back from the front. However, a
1/4” (6)clearance is required to allow opening the upper service door. A 10” (254)
clearance is required from the top at all other points.
6. Floor- This unit may be installed upon a combustible oor.
*Units may be installed in direct contact with an adjacent dryer, provide
ing allowance is made for opening upper and lower service doors. Do-
not obstruct the ow of combustion and ventilation air. Maintain
minimum of 1” (25) clearance between duct and combustible material.

MAKE-UP AIR
Adequate make-up air must be supplied to replace air exhausted by dryers on all types of installations.
Refer to specications for the minimum amount of make-up air opening to outside for each dryer. This is a
net requirement of eective area. Screens, grills or louvers, which will restrict the ow of air, must be con-
sidered. Consult the supplier to determine the free area equivalent for the grill being used. The source of
make-up air should be located suciently away from the dryers to allow an even airow to the air intakes
of all dryers. Multiple openings should be provided.
The sources of all make-up air and room ventilation air movement to all dryers must be located away from
any dry cleaners. This is necessary so that solvent vapors will not be drawn into the dryer inlet ducts. Dry
cleaner solvent vapors will decompose in contact with open ame such as the gas ame present in clothes
dryers. The decomposition products are highly corrosive and will cause damage to the dryer(s) ducts and
clothes loads
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS.
The electrical power requirements necessary to operate the unit satisfactorily are listed on the serial plate
located on the back panel of each dryer and in the specications section of this manual. The electrical con-
nection should be made to the terminal board, on the rear of the unit. It is absolutely necessary that the
dryer be grounded to a known ground. Individual circuit breakers for each dryer are required.
Individual circuit breakers for each unit are recommended. Do not use ground-fault circuit breakers or
ground-fault circuit interrupter outlets. The wiring diagram is located on the belt guard on the back of the
machine
TRANSIENT VOLTAGE SURGE SUPPRESSORS
Like most electrical equipment your new machine can be damaged or have its life shortened by voltage
surges due to lightning strikes which are not covered by factory warranty. Local power distribution
problems also can be detrimental to the life of electrical components. We recommend the installation of
transient voltage surge suppressors for your new equipment. These devices may be placed at the power
supply panel for the complete installation and don’t require and individual device for each machine.
These surge protectors help to protect equipment from large spikes and also from small ongoing spikes
in the power that occur on a day to day basis. These smaller surges can shorten overall life of electrical
components of all types and cause their failure at a later date. Although they can’t protect against all
events, these protective devices have a good reputation for signicantly lengthening the useful life of
electronic components.
Electronic Components are helped to have a longer useful life when they are supplied with the clean
stable electrical power they like.
We are including the following names and links to a few suppliers of these devices for those who don’t
currenty have a source.

GAS REQUIREMENTS.
The complete gas requirements necessary to operate the dryer satisfactorily are listed on the serial plate
located on the back panel of the dryer. An individual gas shuto valve is recommended for each dryer
and may be required by local code (not supplied). The inlet gas connection to the unit is 1/2 inch [12.7]
pipe thread for T-30/50 and 3/4 inch [19.1] for the T-80/T-120. A joint compound resistant to the action
of liqueed petroleum gases should be employed in making pipe connections. A 1/8 inch NPT plugged
tapping, accessible for test gage connection, must be installed immediately upstream of the gas supply
connection to the dryer. A drip tee should be provided in the gas piping entering the unit to catch dirt and
other foreign articles. All pipe connections should be checked for leakage with soap solution. Never check
with an open ame. The recommended natural gas supply pressure is 7 inches water column (17.8 cm) at
each dryer.
With the burners in operation, check the gas pressure at the threaded port in the end of the burner
manifold. Adjust the dryer’s gas control valve for 3.5 inches water column (8.89 cm w.c.) pressure at the
manifold (Adjust T-30 -39 models to 3.4 in. w.c. (8.64 cm w.c.)).
For altitudes above 2,000 feet (610m) it is necessary to de-rate the BTU input. Contact your local distribu-
tor for instructions. L.P. gas conversion kits are available for this dryer. Contact your local distributor.
CAUTION: The dryer must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure test-
ing of that system. Do not expose the dryer’s gas control valve to testing pressure.
Burner Set-Up
All gas burner manifolds should be checked for proper gas pressure while burning. Dryer manifold
pressure should be set at 3.5 W.C. for Natural Gas while burner operating.
EXHAUST INSTALLATION. (Refer to Figure 2 at the end of section 6.)
Exhausting of the dryer(s) should be planned and constructed so that no air restrictions occur. Any re-
striction due to pipe size or type of installation can cause slow drying time, excessive heat, and lint in the
room.
From an operational standpoint, incorrect or inadequate exhausting can cause a cycling of the high limit
thermostat which shuts o the main burners and results in inecient drying.
Individual exhausting of the dryers is recommended. All heat, moisture, and lint should be exhausted
outside by attaching a pipe of the proper diameter to the dryer adapter collar and extending it out through
an outside wall. This pipe must be very smooth on the inside, as rough surfaces tend to collect lint which
will eventually clog the duct and prevent the dryer from exhausting properly. All elbows must be smooth
on the inside. All joints must be made so the exhaust end of one pipe is inside the next one downstream.
The addition of an exhaust pipe tends to reduce the amount of air the blower can exhaust. This does
not aect the dryer operation if held within practical limits. For the most ecient operation, it is recom-
mended that no more than 14’ (4.3m) of straight (8” (20.3cm) for T-30/50/80, 10 or 12” (25.4 or 30.5cm)
for T-120) diameter pipe be used with two right angle elbows. When more than two elbows are used,
2’ (61cm) of straight pipe should be removed for each additional elbow. No more than four right angle
elbows should be used to exhaust a dryer.
Maintain minimum 1” (25) clearance between duct and combustible material.
If the exhaust pipe passes through a wall, a metal sleeve of slightly larger diameter should be set in the
wall and the exhaust pipe passed through this sleeve. This practice is required by some local codes and
is recommended in all cases to protect the wall. This type of installation should have a means provided to
prevent rain and high winds from entering the exhaust when the dryer is not in use. A hood with a hinged
damper can be used for this purpose. Another method would be to point the outlet end of the pipe down-
ward to prevent entrance of wind and rain. In either case, the outlet should be kept clear, by at least 24”
(610), of any objects which would cause an air restriction.
