The dryer must be installed with a proper exhaust duct
connection to the outside.
The dryer must be installed with provisions for adequate
combustion and make-up air supply.
Caution
This dryer produces combustible lint and must
be exhausted to the outdoors. Every 6 months,
inspect the exhaust ducting and remove any lint buildup.
Important
Dryer must be installed in a location/
environment, which the ambient temperature
remains between 40º F (4.44º C) and 130º F (54.44º C).

Exhaust Requirements _______________
Exhaust ductwork should be designed and installed by a
qualified professional. Improperly sized ductwork will create
excessive back pressure, which results in slow drying,
increased use of energy, and shutdown of the burner by the
airflow (sail) switch, burner hi-limits, or lint chamber hi-limit
protector thermostat. The dryer must be installed with a
proper exhaust duct connection to the outside.
When possible, it is suggested to provide a separate (single)
exhaust duct for each dryer.
Caution
This dryer produces combustible lint and must
be exhausted to the outdoors.
Improperly sized or installed exhaust ductwork can create
a potential fire hazard.
Important
It is recommended that exhaust or booster fans
not be used in the exhaust ductwork system.
The exhaust ductwork should be laid out in such a way that
the ductwork travels as directly as possible to the outdoors
with as few turns as possible. The shape of the ductwork is
not critical as long as the minimum cross section area is
provided. Single or independent dryer venting is
recommended.
It is suggested that the use of 90° turns be avoided; use 30°
or 45° angles instead.
The ductwork should be smooth inside with no projections
from sheet metal screws or other obstructions, which will
collect lint. When adding ducts, the ducts to be added should
overlap the duct to which it is connected. All ductwork joints
must be taped to prevent moisture and lint from escaping
into the building. Additionally, inspection doors should be
installed at strategic points in the exhaust ductwork for
periodic inspection and cleaning.
Important
When connecting ductwork to the dryer exhaust
duct, be sure that when screws are used they do
not restrict the operation (both opening and closing) of the
damper.
Note
When the exhaust ductwork passes through a
wall, ceiling, or roof made of combustible
materials, the opening must be 2-inches (5.08 cm) larger
than the duct (all the way around). The duct must be
centered within this opening.
To protect the outside end of the horizontal ductwork from
the weather, a 90° elbow bent downward should be installed
where the exhaust exits the building. If the ductwork travels
vertically up through the roof, it should be protected from the
weather by using a 180° turn to point the opening downward.
In either case, allow at least twice the diameter of the duct
between the duct opening and the nearest obstruction (i.e.,
roof or ground level).
Note
Air considerations are important for proper and
efficient operation.
Dryers may be positioned sidewall to sidewall. However, a
1/16” (1.59 mm) minimum allowance must be made for
opening and closing of the control door. It is suggested that
the dryer be positioned about 2 feet (0.61 meters) away
from the nearest obstruction for ease of installation,
maintenance, and service (to be measured from the back
guard). Refer to the illustration on previous page for details.
Fresh Air Supply Requirements ______
The air supply (make-up air) must be given careful
consideration to ensure proper performance of each dryer.
An unrestricted source of air is necessary for each dryer. As
a general rule, an unrestricted air entrance from the outdoors
(atmosphere) of a minimum of 1-1/2 square feet (0.14
square meters) is required for each dryer. If registers or
louvers are installed over the openings, then the area must
be increased. It is not necessary to have separate
make-up air openings for each dryer. Common make-up
air openings are acceptable. However, they must be set up
in such a manner that the make-up air is distributed equally
to the dryers. The dryer must be installed with provisions
for adequate combustion and make-up air supply.
Example: For a bank of eight dryers, two unrestricted
openings measuring 3 feet by 2 feet (0.914 meters by 0.61
meters) are acceptable.
Important
Make-up air openings should not be located in
an area directly near where exhaust vents exit the
building.
Allowances must be made for remote or constricting
passageways or where dryers are located at excessive
altitudes or predominantly low pressure areas.
Important
Make-up air must be provided from a source free
of dry cleaning solvent fumes. Make-up air that is
contaminated by dry cleaning solvent fumes will result in
irreparable damage to the motors and other dryer
components.
Note
Component failure due to dry cleaning solvent
fumes will void the warranty.
!
113229-4 www.amdry.com 9
!Important
Do not use screens, louvers, or caps on the
outside opening of the exhaust ductwork.
Exhaust back pressure measured by a manometer at the
dryer exhaust duct area must be no less than 0 and must
not exceed 0.3 in WC (0.74 mb).
Note
As per the National Fuel Gas Code, “Exhaust
ducts for type 2 clothes dryers shall be
constructed of sheet metal or other noncombustible
material. Such ducts shall be equivalent in strength and
corrosion resistance to ducts made of galvanized sheet
steel not less than 26 gauges (0.0195-inches [0.50 mm])
thick.”
Single Dryer Venting
Horizontal Venting
When a single 8-inch (20.32 cm) horizontal vent is used,
the ductwork to the outlet cannot exceed 68 feet (20.7
meters), refer to Illus. A below. This calculation of 68 feet
(20.7 meters) compensates or allows for the use of a
maximum of only one elbow, (which is the outside outlet
protection).
Illus. A
!
!
!
!
Vertical Venting
When vertical single 8-inch (20.32 cm) venting is used (refer
to Illus. B below), the ductwork from the dryer to the outside
outlet cannot exceed 55 feet (16.7 meters). This calculation
compensates for the use of a maximum of three elbows
including the two elbows creating the 180° (turned
downward) outside outlet.
Illus. B
If the length of the duct run or quantity of elbows used
exceeds the above noted specifications, the cross-sectional
area of the ductwork must be increased in proportion to the
number of elbows or duct run added.
Important
For extended ductwork runs, the cross section
area of the duct can only be increased to an
extent. For extended ductwork runs, a professional HVAC
firm should be consulted for proper venting information.
Multiple Dryer (Common) Venting
If it is not feasible to provide separate exhaust ducts for
each dryer, ducts for individual dryers may be channeled
into a common main duct. Each dryer is provided with a
back draft damper. The individual ducts should enter the
bottom or side of the main duct at an angle not more than
45° in the direction of the airflow.
The main common duct may be any shape as long as the
minimum cross-sectional area is provided. The main duct
should be tapered with the diameter increasing before each
individual 8-inch (20.32 cm) duct is added (refer to Illus. C
for horizontal venting and Illus. D for vertical venting on the
following page).
Important
No more than four dryers maximum should be
connected to one main common duct with a
vertical run.
Note
Distance between dryer single ducts being
connected to the main common duct must be a
minimum of 34-1/4” (87 cm) dryer width.
Ductwork should be laid out in such a manner where
allowances are made at rear area of the dryer for removal
of rear service panels or guards.

The illustrations below show the minimum cross section
area for multiple dryer venting. These figures must be
increased in proportion if the main duct run from the last
dryer to where it exhausts has numerous elbows or is
unusually long.
Important
For extended ductwork runs, the cross section
area of the duct can only be increased to an
extent. For extended ductwork runs, a professional HVAC
firm should be consulted for proper venting information.

Steam Information ___________________
It is your responsibility to have all plumbing connections
made by a qualified professional to ensure that the steam
plumbing installation is adequate and conforms with local
and state regulations or codes.
Care must be exercised when leveling steam dryers into
final position. After leveling the dryer, check the downward
pitch of the heat exchanger from front to rear with a level.
Likewise, check the downward pitch of the return condensate
manifold toward its outlet part. Absence of these downward
pitches will result in probable water hammer and premature
heat exchanger fracture and leakage.
The presence of condensate in the steam will cause water
hammer and subsequent heat exchanger failure. The steam
supply connection must be taken from the top of a
well-dripped steam main. If the supply run-out to the dryer
exceeds 20 feet (6.1 meters), it should be dripped just before
the control valve with a proper trap and dirt pocket.
Important
Failure to comply with the requirements
stipulated in this manual can result in component
failure, which will void the warranty.
Note
This dryer is manufactured with a pneumatic
(piston) damper system, which requires an
external supply of air (80 psi +/- 10 psi [5.51 bar +/- 0.68
bar]).
Steam Coil pH Level
The normal pH level for copper type steam coils must be
maintained between a value of 8.5 to 9.5. For steel type
steam coils the pH level must be maintained between a
value of 9.5 to 10.5. These limits are set to limit the acid
attack of the steam coils.
Important
Coil failure due to improper pH level will void the
warranty.
Steam Requirements
Shaded areas are stated in metric equivalents
* The minimum operating pressure for optimum results is 100 psig (689.47
kPa).
Installation Instructions
To ensure an adequate supply of steam is provided, be
sure that the steam supply lines and steam return lines are
sized and laid out as stipulated in this manual. Inadequate
steam supply lines and steam return lines or improper
steam plumbing will result in poor performance and can
cause component failure. Clean, dry steam must be
provided to the dryer.
Important
Steam coil failure due to water hammer by wet
steam will void the warranty.
The pressure of the condensate in the steam supply line
will cause water hammer and subsequent heat exchanger
(steam coil) failure. The steam supply connection into the
main supply line must be made with a minimum 10-inch
(25.4 cm) riser. This will prevent any condensate from
draining towards the dryer.
The steam supply line to the dryer must include a 12-inch
(30.48 cm) riser along with a drip trap and check valve. This
will prevent any condensate from entering the steam coil.
Flexible hoses or couplings must be used. The dryer
vibrates slightly when it runs and this will cause the steam
coil connections to crack if they are hard piped to the supply
and return mains.
Shutoff valves for each dryer should be installed in the
supply line, return line, and drip trap return line. This will
allow the dryer to be isolated from the supply main and the
return main if the dryer needs maintenance work.
Install an inverted bucket steam trap and check valve at
least 12-inches (30.48 cm) below the steam coil as close
to the coil as possible. A trap with a capacity of 350 lb (160
kg) of condensate per hour at 125 psi (8.61 bar) is needed
for each unit.
The supply line and the return line should be insulated.
This will save energy and provide for the safety of the operator
and maintenance personnel.

16 American Dryer Corp. 113229-4
Water pockets in the supply line, caused by low points, will
provide wet steam to the coil possibly causing steam coil
damage. All horizontal runs of steam supply piping should
be pitched 1/4-inch (6.35 mm) for every 1 foot (0.30 meters)
back towards the steam supply header causing the
condensate in the line to drain to the header. Install a bypass
trap in any low point to eliminate wet steam.
Important
Flexible hoses/couplings must be used. Coil
failure due to hard plumbing connections will
void the warranty.
Steam Damper Air System Connections
This dryer is manufactured with a pneumatic (piston) damper
system, which requires an external supply of compressed
air. The air connection is made to the steam damper
solenoid valve, which is located at the rear inner top area of
the dryer just in front of the electric service relay box.
!
Air Requirements
There is no air requirement for dryers with the
electromechanical steam damper option.
Shaded areas are stated in metric equivalents
Air Connection
Air connection to system — 1/8” N.P.T.
Air Regulation
No air regulator or filtration is provided with the dryer. External
regulation/filtration of 80 psi (5.51 bar) must be provided. It
is suggested that a regulator/filter gauge arrangement be
added to the compressed air line just before the dryer
connection. This is necessary to ensure that correct and
clean air pressure is achieved.
Compressed Air Supply Air Pressure
Normal 80 psi 5.51 bar
Minimum Supply 70 psi 4.82 bar
Maximum Supply 90 psi 6.21 bar
113229-4 www.amdry.com 17
Steam Damper System Operation
The steam damper, as shown in the illustration below,
allows the coil to stay constantly charged eliminating
repeated expansion and contraction. When the damper is
opened, the air immediately passes through the already
hot coil, providing instant heat to start the drying process.
When the damper is closed, ambient air is drawn directly
into the tumbler, allowing a rapid cool down.
Diagram 1 shows the damper in the heating (open) mode,
allowing heat into the tumbler.
Diagram 2 shows the damper in the cool down (closed)
mode, pulling ambient air directly into the tumbler without
passing through the coils.
Note
With the dryer off or with no air supply, the steam
damper is in cool down mode as shown in
Diagram 2.
Steam Damper Air Piston (Flow Control)
Operation Adjustment
Damper operation was tested and adjusted prior to shipping
at 80 psi (5.51 bar). If damper air adjustment is necessary,
locate the flow control valve and make the necessary
adjustments as noted below.
Preparation For Operation/Start-Up __
The following items should be checked before attempting
to operate the dryer:
Read all “Caution”, “Warning”, and “Direction” labels
attached to the dryer.
Check incoming supply voltage to be sure that it is the
same as indicated on the dryer data label.
Gas Models – check to ensure that the dryer is
connected to the type of heat/gas indicated on the dryer
data label.
Gas and Electric Models – the sail switch damper
assembly was installed and adjusted at the factory prior
to shipping. However, each sail switch adjustment
must be checked to ensure that this important safety
control is functioning.
Check bolts, nuts, screws, terminals, and fittings for
tightness and security.
Gas Models – be sure that all gas shutoff valves are in
the open position.
Check that all back guard panels and service box
covers have been replaced.
Check the lint drawer to ensure that it is closed and
secured in place.
Rotate the tumbler (drum) by hand to be sure it moves
freely.
Steam Models – check to ensure that a clean, dry,
regulated air supply (80 psi [5.51 bar]) is on the dryer
(with air-operated damper system only).
Steam Models – check to ensure all steam shutoff
valves are open.
Steam Models – check steam damper operation.
Check tumbler bearing setscrews to ensure that they
are all tight.
Check vent is connected to the dryer and is exhausted
to the outdoors.
Preoperational Test __________________
All dryers are thoroughly tested and inspected before leaving
the factory. However, a preoperational test should be
performed before the dryer is publicly used. It is possible
that adjustments have changed in transit or due to marginal
location (installation) conditions.
Turn on electric power to the dryer.
Refer to the Operating Instructions for starting your particular
model dryer.
Gas Models Only
When a gas dryer is first started (during initial start-up), it
has a tendency not to ignite on the first ignition attempt.
This is because the gas supply piping is filled with air, so it
may take a few minutes for the air to be purged from the
lines.
Note
During the purging period, check to be sure that
all gas shutoff valves are open.
!
!
18 American Dryer Corp. 113229-4
Gas model dryers are equipped with an ignition system,
which has internal diagnostics. If ignition is not established
after one time, the heat circuit in the ignition module will
attempt two more ignitions (total of three ignition attempts).
If there is no flame after the third ignition attempt the module
will lock out until it is manually reset. To reset the ignition
system, open and close the main door and restart the dryer.
A gas pressure test should be taken at the gas valve
pressure tap of each dryer to ensure that the water column
pressure is correct and consistent.
Note
Water column pressure requirements (measured
at the pressure tap of the gas valve body):
Natural Gas .............. 3.5 in WC (8.7 mb)
L.P. Gas .................... 10.5 in WC (26.1 mb)
Important
There is no regulator provided in an L.P. dryer.
The water column pressure must be regulated at
the source (L.P. tank), or an external regulator must be
added to each dryer.
Make a complete operational check of all safety related
circuits:
Door Switch(es)
Hi-Limit Thermostats
Cycling Thermostat
Gas and Electric Models Only – Sail Switch
Note
The sail switch can be checked for proper
operation by opening the lint drawer. While
pushing the lint drawer switch in, start a drying cycle. The
heating unit should not activate (wait 30-seconds). If heat
does activate, make the necessary adjustments to the sail
switch.
Make a complete operational check of all operating controls.
Note
If computer program changes are required, refer
to the computer programming section of the
manual supplied with the dryer.
The dryer should be operated through one complete cycle
to ensure that no further adjustments are necessary and
that all components are functioning properly.
Tumbler Coating
The tumbler is treated with a protective coating. We suggest
dampening old garments or cloth material with a solution
of water and nonflammable mild detergent and tumbling
them in the tumbler to remove this coating.
Check the electric service phase sequence (3-phase [3ø]
models only). While the dryer is operating, check to see if
the blower wheel (impellor/fan) is rotating in the proper
direction. Looking from the front, the blower wheel (impellor/
fan) should spin in the clockwise direction. If it is, the phasing
is correct. If the phasing is incorrect, reverse two of the
three leads at connections L1, L2, and L3 of the power supply
to the dryer.
Important
If the blower wheel (impellor/fan) is rotating in the
wrong direction, it will drastically reduce drying
efficiency and it can also cause premature component
failure.

Routine Maintenance _________________
Cleaning
A program and/or schedule should be established for
periodic inspection, cleaning, and removal of lint from various
areas of the dryer, as well as throughout the ductwork
system. The frequency of cleaning can best be determined
from experience at each location. Maximum operating
efficiency is dependent upon proper airflow. The
accumulation of lint can restrict this airflow. If the guidelines
in this section are met, the dryer will provide many years of
efficient, trouble free, and most importantly, safe operation.
Warning
Lint from most fabrics is highly combustible. The
accumulation of lint can create a potential fire
hazard.
Keep dryer area clear and free from combustible
materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and
liquids.
Note
Suggested time intervals shown are for average
usage, which is considered 6 to 8 operational
(running) hours per day.
Important
Dryer produces combustible lint and must be
exhausted to the outdoors. Every 6 months,
inspect the exhaust ducting and remove any lint buildup.
Suggested Cleaning Schedule
Every Third or Fourth Load
Clean the lint screen every third or fourth load. A clogged lint
screen will cause poor dryer performance. The lint door/
drawer is located just below the loading door of the dryer.
Open the lint door/drawer, brush the lint off the lint screen,
and remove the lint. Inspect lint screen and replace if torn.
Note
The frequency of cleaning the lint screen can
best be determined from experience at each
location.
Weekly
Clean lint accumulation from lint chamber, thermostat, and
microprocessor temperature sensor (sensor bracket) area.
Warning
To avoid the hazard of electrical shock,
discontinue electrical supply to the dryer.
Steam Dryers
Clean the steam coil fins. It is suggested that compressed
air and a vacuum cleaner with brush attachment be used.
Warning
When cleaning steam coil fins, be careful not to
bend the fins. If fins are bent, straighten by using
a fin comb, which is available from local air-conditioning
supply houses.
90 Days
Inspect and remove lint accumulation in customer furnished
exhaust ductwork system and from dryer’s internal exhaust
ducting.
Warning
The accumulation of lint in the exhaust ductwork
can create a potential fire hazard.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
Inspect and remove any lint accumulation, which can
cause the back draft damper to bind or stick.
Note
A back draft damper that is sticking partially
closed can result in slow drying and shutdown of
heat circuit safety switches or thermostats.
When cleaning the dryer cabinet(s), avoid using harsh
abrasives. A product intended for the cleaning of
appliances is recommended.
Adjustments
7 Days After Installation
and Every 6 Months Thereafter
Inspect bolts, nuts, screws, setscrews, grounding
connections, and nonpermanent gas connections (unions,
shutoff valves, and orifices). Motor and drive belts should
be examined. Cracked or seriously frayed belts should be
replaced. Tighten loose V-belts when necessary. Complete
operational check of controls and valves. Complete
operational check of all safety devices (door switches, lint
drawer switch, sail switch, burner, and hi-limit thermostats).
Lubrication
The motor bearings, idler bearings, and under normal/most
conditions the tumbler bearings are permanently lubricated.
It is physically possible to relubricate the tumbler bearings
if you choose to do so even though this practice is not
necessary. Use Shell Alvania #2 grease or its equivalent.
The tumbler bearings used in the dryer do not have a grease
fitting. Provisions are made in the bearing housing for the
addition of a grease fitting, which can be obtained
elsewhere, or from ADC by ordering kit P/N 882159 (includes
two fittings).

to the illustration below.)
24 American Dryer Corp. 113229-4
For Models with DSI Module (Type I)
Theory of Operation: Start the drying cycle. When the
gas burner ignites within the chosen trial for ignition time
(6-seconds), the flame sensor detects gas burner flame
and signals the DSI module to keep the gas valve open as
long as there is a call for heat. The DSI module will
“LOCKOUT” if the gas burner flame is not sensed at the end
of the trial for ignition period. The trial for ignition period will
be repeated for a total of 3 retries/trials (the initial try and 2
more retries/trials). If the flame is not sensed at the end of
the third retry/trial (inter-purge period of 30-seconds) the
DSI module will “LOCKOUT” (L.E.D. diagnostic indicator
flashes).
A steady L.E.D. indicator indicates normal operation. No
L.E.D. indicator indicates a power or an internal failure has
occurred.
For Models with DSI Module (Type II)
Theory of Operation: Start the drying cycle. When the
gas burner ignites within the chosen trial for ignition time
(8-seconds), the flame sensor detects gas burner flame
and signals the DSI module to keep the gas valve open as
long as there is a call for heat. The DSI module will
“LOCKOUT” if the gas burner flame is not sensed at the end
of the trial for ignition period. The trial for ignition period will
be repeated for a total of 3 retries/trials (the initial try and 2
more retries/trials). If the flame is not sensed at the end of
the third retry/trial (inter-purge period of 30-seconds), the
DSI module will “LOCKOUT” (a red L.E.D. diagnostic
indicator will flash).
An unlit red L.E.D. diagnostic indicator indicates normal
operation. A lit green L.E.D. diagnostic indicator indicates
dryer controller is calling for heat and that all interlocks have
been satisfied.
Manual Reset
Burner Hi-Limit Instructions __________
Phase 7
This dryer was manufactured with a manual reset burner
hi-limit thermostat, which is monitored by the Phase 7
computer. If the burner hi-limit is open prior to the start of
the drying cycle, the dryer will start momentarily and then
shut down, the Phase 7 computer will display “burner HIGH
LIMIT fault” with an audio indication.
If the burner hi-limit opens during a drying cycle, the Phase
7 computer will also display the same error code described
above, along with an audio indication. If the drum
temperature is above 100° F (38° C), the dryer will continue
to run with no heat for 3 minutes or until the drum
temperature has dropped below 100° F (38° C). The
“CLEAR/STOP” button on the Phase 7 keypad must be
pressed to clear the error condition. The open burner
hi-limit must be reset “manually” prior to the start of the next
cycle.
Dual Timer
This dryer was manufactured with a manual reset burner
hi-limit thermostat. If the burner hi-limit is open prior to the
start of the drying cycle, or during the cycle, the dryer will not
recognize the open state of the burner hi-limit and will start
or continue through the drying cycle with no heat. Manual
reset hi-limit must be reset manually.
This hi-temperature condition may be caused due to a
restricted exhaust, poor airflow, or improper burner
operation.
The location of the burner hi-limit is on the right side of the
burner box, looking at the burner from the back of the dryer.
Warning
Discontinue power to dryer before attempting to
reset hi-limit.

S.A.F.E. System _______________________
The exclusive S.A.F.E. system will extinguish fires that may
start in the drying tumbler. A series of sensors positioned
throughout the tumbler and interfaced with the
microprocessor will trigger the S.A.F.E. system water jet(s)
to quickly extinguish the flames. The water jet(s) remain on
for 2 minutes and will automatically activate again if a fire
condition remains or reignites. While the water jet(s) are
activated, the tumbler will jog to move the water throughout
the load. The microprocessor will display that the system
was activated and will continue to display until the dryer is
attended to.
We have tried to make this manual as complete as possible
and hope you will find it useful. ADC reserves the right to
make changes from time to time, without notice or obligation,
in prices, specifications, colors, and material, and to change
or discontinue models.
Before You Start
Check Local Codes And Permits
Call your local water company or the proper municipal
authority for information regarding local codes.
Important
It is your responsibility to have all plumbing
connections made by a qualified professional to
ensure that the plumbing installation is adequate and
conforms to local, state, and federal regulations or codes.
It is the installer’s or owner’s responsibility to see that the
necessary or required water, water pressure, pipe size, or
connections are provided. The manufacturer assumes no
responsibility if the S.A.F.E. system is not connected,
installed, or maintained properly.
Installation
Requirements
The S.A.F.E. system must be supplied with a minimum water
pipe size of 1/2” and be provided with 40 psi +/- 20 psi (2.75
bar +/- 1.37 bar) of pressure. For use of optional manual
bypass, a second source with the same piping and pressure
requirements is required.
Flexible 1/2 feeds must be provided to avoid damage to
electric water solenoid valve by vibration.
!
Important
Flexible supply line/coupling must be used.
Solenoid valve failure due to hard plumbing
connections will void warranty.
If the rear area of the dryer, or the water supply is located in
an area where it will be exposed to cold/freezing
temperatures, provisions must be made to protect these
water lines from freezing.
Important
Appliance is to be connected to the water mains
using a new hose set and the old hose set should
not be reused.
Warning
If the water in the supply line or water solenoid
valve freezes, the S.A.F.E. system will be
inoperative!!
Water Connections
The water connection is made to the 3/4”-11.5 NH hose
adaptor of the electric water solenoid valve, located at the
rear upper midsection of the dryer.
The water solenoid valve has a 3/8” M.P.T. connection
supplied with a 3/4”-11.5 NH hose adaptor to provide the
minimum 1/2” supply (feed) line. Flexible supply line/
coupling must be used in an effort to avoid damaging the
electric water solenoid valve.
Note
The 3/4”-11.5 NH is a standard hose coupling
screw thread. It is not to be confused with 3/4”
N.P.T. The sealing of an NH connection is made with a
washer opposed to the mating threads of an N.P.T.
assembly. The two thread designs are not compatible.
Important
Flexible supply line/coupling must be used.
Solenoid valve failure due to hard plumbing
connections will void warranty. It is recommended that a
filter or strainer be installed in the water supply line.

Typical Water Supply
26 American Dryer Corp. 113229-4
Optional Manual Bypass
Provisions are made in the dryer S.A.F.E. system for the
installation of an optional manual bypass. Depending on
the model dryer, the connections for the manual bypass are
made at the “T” or “three way” fitting located in the outlet
supply side of the water solenoid valve. The use and
connections of this manual bypass are at the option or
discretion of the owner.
The water connection for the manual bypass is made to the
“T” or “three way” fitting, which has a 3/8” F.P.T. and a coupling
must be used to provide the minimum 1/2” supply (feed)
line.
If the rear area of the dryer, or the water supply is located in
an area where it will be exposed to cold/freezing
temperatures, provisions must be made to protect these
water lines from freezing.
Warning
If the water in the supply line or water solenoid
valve freezes, the S.A.F.E. system will be
inoperative!!
The manual ball cock shutoff valve must be located outside
of the dryer at a distance from the dryer where it is easily
accessible.
Electrical Requirements
Warning
Electrical power must be provided to the dryer at
all times. If the main electrical power supply to
the dryer is disconnected, the S.A.F.E. system is
inoperative!!
!
!
No independent external power source or supply connection
is necessary. The 24 volt power to operate the S.A.F.E.
system is accomplished internally in the dryer (from the
dryer controls).
S.A.F.E. System Theory of Operation
While the dryer is in an idle state, or 20-seconds after the
heat turns off, the Phase 7 control monitors the thermistor
probe, located in the top of the tumbler chamber, and records
the minimum temperature. If the minimum recorded
thermistor probe temperature is greater than 120° F (48° C)
and the control detects a 50° rise in temperature, this will
be the trip point and the S.A.F.E. system routine will activate.
While a drying cycle is in process and the heat has turned
on at least once, the Phase 7 control monitors the exhaust
temperature transducer. If the drying cycle temperature set
point is set greater than 160° F (71° C) and the control detects
an exhaust temperature rise 25° F greater than set point,
this will be the trip point and the S.A.F.E. system routine will
activate. If set point is below 160° F (71° C), the trip point
will be 185° F (85° C).
Once the S.A.F.E. system routine is activated, the control
will display “S.A.F.E. SYSTEM ACTIVATED” and water will be
injected into the tumbler chamber. Any time water is being
injected into the tumbler, the tumbler drive will turn the load
for 1-second every 15-seconds. This process will continue
for a minimum of 2 minutes. After the 2 minutes have
elapsed, the control will check if the temperature remained
above trip point; if so, the water will remain on. The control
will continue to check if the temperature is above trip point
every 30-seconds. If the water has been on for a constant
10 minutes, the water will be turned off, regardless of the
temperature, and the control will display “S.A.F.E. SYSTEM
WAS ACTIVATED”. If the temperature has dropped below
trip point, the control will turn off the water prior to 10 minutes.
113229-4 www.amdry.com 27
System Reset
After the microprocessor determines that the situation is
under control and shuts the water being injected into the
tumbler off, the microprocessor display will read “S.A.F.E.
SYSTEM WAS ACTIVATED”, and the horn/tone will sound
until reset manually.
Non-Coin – To reset the microprocessor once the control
displays “S.A.F.E. SYSTEM WAS ACTIVATED”, press the red
“STOP/CLEAR” key on the keypad.
Coin – To reset the microprocessor once the control
displays “S.A.F.E. SYSTEM WAS ACTIVATED”, press and hold
the red “PAUSE” key for 3-seconds on the keypad.
S.A.F.E. System Water Valve Check
The operation of the water solenoid valve can be tested to
ensure that the water supply system and valve are functional.
Before attempting a system check, be sure that all water
supply shutoff valves to the dryer are in the open position;
the dryer must be in the “Ready” mode with no cycle loaded
or in progress.
Non-Coin – Press and hold the red “STOP/CLEAR” key
(while in “Ready” mode and no cycle is in progress).
Press and hold the “A” key.
Water valve will open and water will be dispensed into
tumbler area as long as both keys are held.
The Phase 7 non-coin microprocessor controller (computer)
will prompt the user to perform a S.A.F.E. system valve check
at every 4000 hours to ensure proper functionality. At the
4000 hour mark, the control will wait for end of the cycle and
then will prompt the user to “PLEASE EMPTY TUMBLER,
THEN PRESS THE ‘STOP/CLEAR’ AND ‘A KEYS TO TEST
THE WATER VALVE”. When the “STOP/CLEAR” and ‘A keys
are pressed, the control will activate the S.A.F.E. system
water valve for 2-seconds, at which point the control will
prompt the user with the following message: “IF WATER
DID NOT TURN ON, CALL FOR SERVICE. THANK YOU.”
Note
The control will not let the user continue until the
valve test has been completed.
Coin – While the control is in the program mode, Press
and hold the “PAUSE” key for 3-seconds to get into the valve
test mode. Valve test mode: The control will display “PRESS
AND HOLD MEDIUM TO OPEN WATER VALVE”. When the
“MEDIUM” key is pressed, the control will activate the water
output.
S.A.F.E. System Diagnostics
Non-Coin – In the event that the Phase 7 non-coin
microprocessor controller (computer) detects a fault in the
S.A.F.E. system, the control will display the message
“S.A.F.E. SYSTEM DISABLED…READY”. To find out why the
S.A.F.E. system is disabling, press and hold the red “STOP/
CLEAR” and green “START” keys. This will cause the control
to display a diagnostic message, as detailed in the “S.A.F.E.
System Diagnostics Messages” section.
Coin – In the event that the Phase 7 microprocessor
controller (computer) detects a fault in the S.A.F.E. system,
the control will display the message “S.A.F.E. SYSTEM
DISABLED… READY, INSERT XX TO START”. To find out
the reason for the S.A.F.E. system disabling, press and hold
the red “PAUSE” and “LOW” keys. This will cause the control
to display a diagnostic message, as detailed in the following
section.
S.A.F.E. System Diagnostics Messages
Open Thermistor Probe
This message indicates that the S.A.F.E. system thermistor
probe either is not connected or is damaged. If this condition
is detected, the Phase 7 non-coin control will immediately
enter S.A.F.E. System Disabled mode.
Shorted Thermistor Probe
This message indicates that the S.A.F.E. system thermistor
probe is damaged or the wiring is shorted. If this condition
is detected, the Phase 7 non-coin control will immediately
enter S.A.F.E. System Disabled mode.
Disconnected Water Valve
This message indicates that the water valve is open or that
it is not connected to the control. If this condition is detected,
the Phase 7 non-coin control will continue to monitor the
condition for a period of 5 minutes before entering S.A.F.E.
System Disabled mode. Once the condition is corrected,
the control will continue to monitor the condition for 1 minute
before exiting S.A.F.E. System Disabled mode.
Shorted Water Valve
This message indicates that the water valve is shorted or
that the wiring to the valve is shorted. If this condition is
detected, the Phase 7 non-coin control will continue to
monitor the condition for a period of 5 minutes before
entering S.A.F.E. System Disabled mode. Once the condition
is corrected, the control will continue to monitor the condition
for 1 minute before exiting S.A.F.E. System Disabled mode.
Water Not Connected
This indicates that there is no water pressure at the water
valve. This will occur if water is not connected to the dryer, or
if there is low water pressure in the water line coming to the
dryer. This could also signify a defective pressure switch or
defective wiring to the pressure switch. If this condition is
detected, the Phase 7 non-coin control will continue to
monitor the condition for a period of 5 minutes before
entering S.A.F.E. System Disabled mode. Once the condition
is corrected, the control will continue to monitor the condition
for 1 minute before exiting S.A.F.E. System Disabled mode.
Starting A Cycle When Computer Is In
“S.A.F.E. System Is Disabled” Mode
Non-Coin – When the S.A.F.E. system is disabled, the user
can still start a cycle. However, when a cycle is started, the
control will display the following message: “S.A.F.E. SYSTEM
IS DISABLED. PRESS ‘START’ TO CONTINUE”. This
message will be displayed every time a cycle is started,
until the disabling condition has been corrected.
Coin – When the S.A.F.E. system is disabled, the user can
still start a cycle. Simply insert credit and select a cycle to
start.
