c. 3-Phase (3ø) Wiring Connections (Hookup) For Reversing Models Only
The electrical connections on
ALL 3-phase (3ø) gas model dryers and steam model dryers are made
into the rear service box located at the upper left area of the dryer. Electrical connections for electrically
heated dryers are made in the electric oven area located at the upper rear of the dryer.
NOTE: A CIRCUIT SERVICING EACH DRYER MUST BE PROVIDED.
If local codes permit, power to a gas dryer can be made by the use of a flexible U.L. listed power cord/
pigtail (wire size must conform to rating of dryer), or the dryer can be hard wired directly to the service
breaker panel. In
ALL cases, a strain relief must be installed where the wiring enters the dryer.
The only electrical input connections to the dryer are the
3-phase (3ø) power leads (L1, L2, L3, and sometimes
neutral) and ground. Single-phase (1ø) power for the control
circuit is done internally to the dryer. No single-phase (1ø)
input connection is required on a 3-phase (3ø) dryer.
For gas model and steam model dryers manufactured for
operation at 3-phase (3ø), the electrical connections are made
at the power distribution block located in the service box at the
rear, upper left corner of the dryer. The ground connection is
made to the copper lug also provided in this box. To gain access
to the service box contactor, the service box cover must be
removed.
