a. Connecting Both Top Baskets (Tumbler) and Bottom Baskets (Tumbler) Together
Both the top basket (tumbler) and the bottom basket (tumbler) can “Y” together to form one connection point.
The bottom basket (tumbler) already includes 6-inch diameter ducting extending to the lower back guard area.
The minimum connection at this point is 8 inches. The upper basket (tumbler) includes no internal duct
work. (Not provided by ADC and must be purchased elsewhere, must be a minimum of 6-inches, and only to
the top of the dryer.) At this point (where the internal ducting ends at top of the dryer) the diameter must be
increased to meet the application as described further in this manual.
IMPORTANT: When connecting duct work to the top basket (tumbler) exhaust duct, be sure that
when screws are used they do not restrict the operation (both opening and closing)
of the damper.
IMPORTANT: ALL duct work joints must be taped to prevent moisture and lint from escaping
into the dryer and/or building.
NOTE: Common (“Y”) exhaust connections of the top basket (tumbler) and bottom basket (tumbler)
should be installed in such a manner that the back guards/panels can be removed easily for
servicing.
IMPORTANT: Exhaust back pressure measured by a manometer at each basket (tumbler) exhaust
duct area should not exceed 0.3 inches water column when both baskets (tumblers)
are operating.
