Before initial startup as well as during normal operation please make sure that the unit is free of all metal parts and packaging materi-als.

3.2 Requirements for installation area

INFORMATION!

Run the unit ONLY in closed, dry spac-es.

Pay special attention to the load rating of the installation area, especially if the unit is being installed on a platform.

The floors around the machine (in the building) must not present a stumbling hazard; the must be level, easy to clean, non-slip surfaces.

Make sure that all parts of the unit re-main easily accessible for maintenance and repair work.

The temperature at the installation area should be above +5C, but may not exceed a maximum temperature of 40C. Remember that the unit will emid additional heat and moisture at the installation location. Other temperature limits apply only to special models equipped with an air-conditioned switch carbinet.


3.3 Electrical connections

Comply with your local energy supplier's regula-tions.

Only Wittmann service technicians, or qualified personnel authorized by Wittmann, may set up and assign the electrical connections.

DANGER! Danger to life due to electrical shock!

You must equip the unit with a main fuse that will interrupt the power supply to the unit.

Check all electrical connections and threaded connections regularly to ensure they are tight.

For safety reasons, the ground wire connection should be checked especially.

Install the power supply a safe distance away from hot parts.

Lay all cords for the unit such that other electrical devices cannot cause any disruptions. Be espe-cially sure to separate control lines and data transmission cords from power cords.

For three-phase units check the direction of rota-tion. The unit uses a right-hand field of rotation.

The entire unit will have to be specially grounded if you work with materials that cause strong electro-static discharges as they are conveyed.

DANGER! Danger to life due to electrical shock!

Cut all power to the unit before performing any work on it. This is the most effective way to prevent electrical accidents.

If work on the electrical system remains uncompleted for some reason, make sure the unit cannot be accidentally put into operation.

3.4 Safety temperature limiter on heating units

The safety temperature limiter triggers at a tem-perature above 400C (752F), and the unit switches off. If the 3 minutes waiting time for shutdown is not observed, and the temperature is too high, it also trips the safety temperature limiter. To return to operation, the safety temperature limiter must be reset with the reset button.

3.5 Installing an extraction system for the regeneration waste air

WARNING!

Harmful gases, which were discharged into the environment especially by way of the regeneration waste air of the drying air generator, develop when some kinds of plastics are dried.

Due to the expulsion of gases, there is a danger to any operators as well as those in the vicinity of the dryer.

In this case, a extraction system of the regeneration air must be pre-sent.

Ask your material manufacturer in this regard.

Installing an extraction system is also practical to avoid temperatures being exceeded at the place of installation.

INFORMATION!

When installing an extraction system please note that the waste air may be very moist. This can lead to the for-mation of condensate which must on no account reenter the drying air generator. The extraction system must not change the air throughput of the drying air gen-erator, especially of the regeneration.


3.6 Connecting the return air cooler (optional)

The return air cooler is preferably connected to a cooling water system with supply and return. The cooling water network must be designed to suit the entire cooling capacity.

INFORMATION!

The return air cooler is always required if the return air temperature permanently exceeds 85C or 185F.

The return air cooler increases the efficiency of the drying agent (desiccant), so that a return air cooler may be practical even with lower return air tem-perature.


4 Description The description is written for the person who will be using the unit (users). This description assumes you are familiar with the dry-air dryers. Make sure that all users have appropriate knowledge and skills.

4.1 Dry-air dryer DRYMAX

The dry-air dryer provides the required drying medium (process air) required for the drying pro-cess.

The drying air generator largely consists of a filter, a blower, the desiccant cartridges with the regen-eration heaters, process heater and the cange over valves.

By switching the valves, the process air is alter-nately dried thorugh the desiccant cartridges. The regeneration procedure is meanwhile underway on the second desiccant cartridge. Once regeneration has been completed the drying air generator changes the valve position and the process air is dried by the other desiccant cartridge.

A dew point measuring installation is available as an option. The measured value is displayed and can be recorded for quality monitoring purposes.

1 Return air 2 Return air filter 3 Process blower 4 Air control valve 5 Drying cartridge 6 Intake filter 7 Regeneration 8 Regeneration heater blower 9 Drying cartridge 10 Process air To increase the efficiency of the drying process, a variable frequency drive can be used (optional).

One-Silo system

A temperature sensor measures the temperature of the return air, the sensor then sends an analog signal to the variable frequency drive. Depending upon the set temperature the variable frequency drive controls the amount of process air leaving the dryer.

Multi-Silo system

The pressure of the process and return air are compared by a differential pressure sensor. The measured differential pressure is transmitted via an analog signal to the variable frequency drice. Depending on the signal the variable frequency drive controls the amount of process air leaving the dryer.

1 Return air 2 Return air filter 3 Process blower 4 Air control valve 5 Drying cartridge 6 Intake filter 7 Regeneration 8 Regeneration heater blower 9 Drying cartridge 10 Process air patrone 11 pressure sensor

If the measured differential pressure is less than the set value on the VFD, the frequency will be increased and the dryer will produce a higher quantity of air. If the measured differential pressure is greater than the set value, the VFD must reduce the frequency and a smaller amount of air will leave the dryer.

To protect the blower motor, a PTC thermistor is installed. This measures the temperature in the blower motor, and passes the value to the control. If there is an overheating of the blower motor, the VFD is regulated down, and if it is necessary, will be shut down to protect the blower motor. Thereby any further control of the VFD via the differential pressure sensor is prevented.

INFORMATION!

The drying air generator DRYMAX works with the air dehumidification facility Kstrolith 4 AK. this is a special adsorp-tion agent for water. The water is filtered from process air with the Kstrolith 4 AK.

The working principle of the Kstrolith 4 AK is based on the temperature differentials between the regeneration and the drying processes. The great-er this temperature differential, the more active the molecular sieve becomes.

INFORMATION!

A return air cooler (optional) is recom-mendable with process return air tem-perature above 65C or 150F. This is cooler reduce the return air temperature and consequently improves the efficien-cy of the drying cartridge.

4.2 Material saver function

The material saver function is available with drying air generators DRYMAX with integrated process heater and drying silo.

Active drying consumes energy. This physical fact is utilised to protect the material from thermal destruction.

A temperature sensor is installed in the return air to register the energy consumption in the drying silo. If no material is removed from the drying silo the return air temperature will rise.

The return air temperature rises to adjustable threshold value 'MSF set', the DRYMAX lowers the process air temperature to the temperature 'MSF set + 10C or 18F'. Granulate drying is now slowed down considerably while the material is kept dry. If the return air temperature drops below the temperature 'MSF set - 10C or 18F' for instance through a transport cycle. DRYMAX detects the drying demand and sets the process temperature to the specified set value 'T set'.

The above graph explains the relationship. It shows the time over the temperature. The red upper curve shows the process air temperature, the blue lower curve shows the return air tempera-ture.

In practice the following procedure is recommend-ed for setting the threshold value 'MSF set'. Initially set the threshold value 'MSF set' to maximum (85C or 185F). Run the device under normal production conditions (no machine stop-page). After approximately 2 hours of production a typical return air temperature will have been established (the return air temperature can be queried in the Menu 5). Set the threshold value 'MSF set' approx-imately 10C or 18F above the return air tempera-ture.


4.2.1.1 Setting material charge

Set the material charge of the loader on the suc-tion lines or suction box.

INFORMATION!

The material charge is the mixing ratio of conveying air to conveying material.

To achieve a high conveying rate the material charge must be maximised. The maximum convey-ing rate is hgihly dependent on the characteristics of the granulate (size, bulk weight, shape) and the conveying line (length, number of bends, convey-ing height).

INFORMATION!

The material charge is optimally set when the granulate is conveyed freely flowing without interruption.

Setting material charge on the suction wand

Included with the FEEDMAX device is a suction pipe (a). Depending on the design of the suction pipe, air adjustment is set by moving material hose up or down (a), turning adjusting ring (b) or moving the inner pipe on or out (c).

a) b) c)

Setting material charge on the suction box (optional)

The suction box is equipped with one or several suction connections.

4.3 Drying hopper SILMAX

The SILMAX consists of a drying hopper, a pro-cess heater and a conical air dristributor.

The dried process air is heated by the process heater and fed into the drying hopper. In the drying hopper, the hot air meets the moist cold plastic granulate and the granulate releases moisture. The moisture is supplied via the exhaust air to the DRYMAX, which prepares the process air for the next cycle.


5 Initial start-up Make sure that the energy supply for the unit is available. Check this:

- electrical connection and grounding of the device

- cooling water inlet and cooling water outlet: for the cooling of the return air filter. For the High Heat option the filters should be cooled with water. The water temperature must not be warmer than 10C.

- extraction system for the waste air (if mounted)

- compressed air 0,6 - 0,7 MPa (6 - 7 bar)

- Make sure that all described tasks under

Chapter 3 "Installation Notes" are carried out and the requirements for installation areas are fullfiled.

- Turn the device, without drying material (granulate) on, and set the desired drying temperature.

- Leave the device, without material, for 6 hours on, to remove any moisture from the device.

After sucessful start-up, the device is ready for operation and for drying granulate.

7.1.1 Safeguarding and power supply On a regular basis, check one time per year all safeguarding lines, switches, hoses, and threaded connections for leakage, damage, and tightness. Repair any defects immediately.

7.1.2 Filterelemente

INFORMATION!

Check all filter elements daily.

The cleaning frequency of the filter elements is largely dependent on the material conveyed and can only be determined through experience with the granulates used. Very dusty granulate and dirty ambient air requires more frequent cleaning.

7.1.3 Cleaning / changing filter ele-ments

Inspect the filter elements regularly. A dirty filter reduces the process air flow, which hampers the units drying performance.

CAUTION!

Running blowers draw in parts, dust and foreign particles. This can destroy the blower and contaminate unit elements.

Switch the unit off before you open the filter housing or take off the fil-ter. Wait until all blowers and mo-tors have come to a stop.

Never operate the unit without its filter elements.

Once the blower has stopped, the filter housing can be opened and the filter cartridge can be removed. Simple filters are designed without the filter housing.

You can use compressed air to clean the filter element (spray air from inside toward the outside).

INFORMATION!

Avoid possible contamination of the environment and the operating person-nel with dust.

Change any heavily soiled filter elements.

7.1.4 Process blower Clean the fan and the cooling fins of dirt. Check how tight the air hoses fit and check for friction points.

7.1.5 Air duct hoses Check all hoses for secure connections. If neces-sary, remove the hose clamps and check in the hoses for buildup. Check the hoses for pressure and friction points. Replace faulty hoses immedi-ately with new hoses, otherwise there is a risk of overheating the unit.

7.1.6 Dew point sensor Check the tightness of the copper lines and clean them. Check the plug connection of the power supply of firmly seated. If there is any buildup, clean it carefully.

7.1.7 Service unit Check if condensate has been collected in the service unit drain the condensate.

INFORMATION!

Check the setting at the service unit. A pressure of 0.6 MPa (6 bar) must be set on the service unit.

7.1.8 Control panel Check out all the frictions on the control panel. Perform self-test to determine the order of the panel by missing functionality. The self-test occurs automatically start the dryer.

7.1.9 Wiring Check the wiring of grinding and breaking points. Check the attachment of all connectors. Check all bolts for tightness of electrical connections. If necessary, tighten the bolts.


7.1.10 Kstrolith 4AK WARNING!

Risk of injury!

Skin contact may cause drying. When the desiccant comes in contact with water, noticeable heat occurs.

Use protective gloves.

Dust generation may result in ocular, and/or pulmonary injury.

In case of dust generation, use respirator masks, goggles and pro-tective gloves.

It is recommended to exchange the Kstrolith 4 AK every 5-8 years. Remove the drying cartridge. Empty the used Kstrolith 4 AK in to a container and dispose of it according to national rules and regulations.

7.1.11 Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) Clean the air vents on the VFD.

Check the wiring for tight fitting. Also check the wiring for brittleness and replace as necessary.

Check the function of the cooling fans and replace them if necessary.
