Water Connections
The water connection is made to the 3/4”-11.5 NH hose
adaptor, located in the rear of the dryer. For gas and electric
models it is on the left side of the oven, for steam models, it
is located at the right side of the steam coil. The 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 2 thread designs are not compatible.
It is recommended that a filter or strainer be installed in the
water supply line.
Important
Flexible supply line/coupling must be used.
Solenoid valve failure due to hard plumbing
connections will void warranty.
The dryer is to be connected to the water mains using a
new hose set and the old hose set should not be reused.
Optional Manual Bypass
Provisions are made in the dryer’s fire suppression 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 manual ball
cock shutoff valve must be located outside of the dryer at a
distance from the dryer where it is easily accessible. The
use and connections of this manual bypass are at the option
or discretion of the owner.
