Installation_____________________________
Requirements
The F.S.S. 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-inch 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.
Warning
If the water in the supply line or water solenoid valve
freezes, the F.S.S. will be inoperative!!
Important
Appliance is to be connected to the water mains using
a new hose-set and the old hose-sets should not be
reused.
Water Connections_____________________
The water connection is made to the 3/4”-11.5 NH hose
adapter of the electric water solenoid valve, located at the
rear upper midsection of the dryer (refer to the photo).
The water solenoid valve has a 3/8” M.P.T. connection supplied
with a 3/4”-11.5 NH hose adapter to provide the minimum
1/2-inch 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 (2) 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.
FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM
(F.S.S.) _____________________
F.S.S. In Action
The exclusive Fire Suppression System (F.S.S.) will extinguish
fires that may start in the drying basket (tumbler). A series of
sensors positioned throughout the basket (tumbler) and
interfaced with the microprocessor will trigger the F.S.S. 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 basket (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.
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 installation or owners responsibility to see that the
necessary or required water, water pressure, pipe size, or
connections are provided. Manufacturer assumes no
responsibility if the F.S.S. is not connected, installed, or
maintained properly.
