General
The HEAT RECLAIMER PACKAGE has been designed
to reduce the amount of heat loss to the atmosphere and
to recycle this heat in order to help reduce fuel consump-
tion.
Hardware Notes
All HEAT RECLAIMER COMPONENTS should be bolted
together using the 5/16" WHIZ BOLTS and NUTS included
in the HEAT RECLAIMER HARDWARE PACKAGE un-
less noted otherwise.
Platform Preparations
* SOME OF THIS SECTION DOES NOT AP-
PLY TO NEW INSTALLATIONS (HEAT
RECLAIMER INSTALLED BEFORE STACK-
ING.) BUT SHOULD BE READ TO SEE
WHICH PARTS SHOULD BE ASSEMBLED
WITH THE PLATFORM.
In order to install the HEAT RECLAIMER INLET BOX
some components of the SERVICE PLATFORM must be
removed.
Remove both UPPER SIDE GUARD RAILS, 79.125" (D61-
0029).
Remove the UPPER FRONT GUARD RAIL, 105" (D61-
0030) and the LOWER FRONT GUARD RAILS, 53.063"
(D61-0032).
Remove the three OUTER GUARD RAIL SUPPORT
CHANNEL (D61-0037) and the OUTER FRONT TOE
BOARDS, 104.938" (D61-0043).
Remove the RH OUTER TOE BOARDS, 82.125" (D61-
0042) and the LH FRONT TOE BOARD, 35.563" (D61-
0044).
Remove the INNER FRONT TOE BOARD, 44.062" (D61-
0049).
Remove the three 102.25" FLOOR PANELS (D61-0069).
HEAT RECLAIMER ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Heat Reclaimer Platform Installation
Install the replacement 45.063" UPPER SIDE GUARD RAIL
(D01-0643) and the TOP and BOTTOM OUTER TOE
BOARDS (D01-0644 & D01-0645).
Install the PLATFORM SUPPORT BEAM (D01-0591, Figure
1) to the SERVICE PLATFORM FRAMEWORK.
Install the INLET BOX DECK PLATE (D01-0571, Figure 1)
to the SERVICE PLATFORM FRAMEWORK using the ex-
isting corner bolts. Drill a 3/8" diameter hole for every hole
around the outer edge of the INLET BOX DECK PLATE.
Place a 5/16" WHIZ BOLT AND NUT into each of these
holes to secure the DECK PLATES into position.
Install the INLET BOX DECK SPLICE PLATE (D01-0570,
Figure 1) to the INLET BOX DECK PLATE. Two SPLICE
PLATES bolt to the top and two to the bottom of the DECK
PLATES.
Install the LONG WALL ANGLE (D01-0587, Figure 1),
SHORT WALL ANGLE (D01-0588, Figure 1), and DUCT SIDE
ANCHOR ANGLE (D01-0590, Figure 1) onto the INLET BOX
DECK PLATE. Keep the bolts loose until the INLET BOX
ASSEMBLY can be completed.
Bracing of Assemblies
Cross bracing should be used on the INLET BOX, SIDE
DUCT CORNER, SIDE TRANSITION DUCT, and TRANSI-
TION COLUMN ASSEMBLIES. This bracing should form a
“W” when installed. The flanges on these angles should
point in the direction of the airflow (toward the fans). Two
angles are included in the package. The INNER SUPPORT
ANGLE (D01-0632) is used on the narrow ducts of the SIDE
DUCT CORNER, SIDE TRANSITION DUCT, and TRANSI-
TION COLUMN ASSEMBLIES. The LONG INNER SUP-
PORT ANGLE (D01-0633) is used on the wide ducts of the
INLET BOX and the SIDE DUCT CORNER.
The bracing should be installed as the major components
are assembled.

umns for the 2022 & 2026 Series dryers.
Mount the SIDE DUCT MOUNTING SHEET (D01-0565,
Figure 3) to the DRYER COLUMN with the 3/8" holes
and with the slot side out. The holes on both sides of the
SIDE DUCT MOUNTING SHEET should line up closer
to the bottom of the sheet as mounted on the dryer. The
SIDE DUCT MOUNTING SHEET mounts to the top holes
on the DRYER COLUMN SIDE SCREEN SHEET on both
sides of the first DRYER COLUMN. Use two SIDE DUCT
MOUNTING SHEETS per column joint where possible.
One left and right hand panel is used on each side
of the dryer in this assembly.

COLUMN BUTTRESS VENT PANEL (D01-0628, Fig-
ure 3) to the SIDE DUCT MOUNTING SHEETS with
the flanges pointing to the dryer. The top bolt hole on
the joint where the two TRANSITION COLUMN PAN-
ELS bolt together should go into the top slot on the
SIDE DUCT MOUNTING SHEET toward the rear of the
first dryer column.

bracket bolts to the top three holes on the vertical joint
of the dryer column.
Bolt one TRANSITION FRONTEND COVER (D01-0630,
Figure 3) to the bottom of the TRANSITION REAREND
COVER, TRANSITION VENT PANEL, and the corre-
sponding vertical joint of the dryer column. Bolt one
TRANSITION FRONTEND COVER to the SIDE DUCT
BOTTOM, first COLUMN BUTTRESS VENT PANEL,
and to the first column joint. Bolt the TRANSITION
COLUMN ROOF PANEL (D01-0631, Figure 3) to the
top of the TRANSITION COLUMN PANELS.

the area over the dryer leg.
Brace the LOWER OUTSIDE TRANSITION PANELS
with the COLUMN BRACE (D61-0249, Figure 5).
NOTE: If the assembly does not seem to line up,
loosen the bolts to allow the SIDE
DUCT ASSEMBLIES to flex into place.
Column Assembly
Mount two COLUMN BRACES (D61-0249, Figure 5) to
the bottom hole of the vertical dryer column joint along
the length of the dryer.
Mount the COLUMN PANEL LOWER BRACKET (D61-
0247, Figure 5) to the lower COLUMN BRACE along the
length of the dryer.
Mount the COLUMN PANEL BRACKET (D51-0171, Fig-
ure 5) to each dryer joint using the top three bolts on the
vertical dryer column joint along the length of the dryer.
Mount the COLUMN PANELS (D61-0246, Figure 5) to each
COLUMN PANEL BRACKET and to the COLUMN PANEL
BRACES along the dryer side.
Bolt each panel together.
Mount the LOWER INNER PANEL and the LOWER
REAREND PANEL (D61-0245, Figure 5) at the rearend
of the dryer to fill in the back of the COLUMN PANEL
ASSEMBLY.
