Troubleshooting - Quick Guide
Alarm Message Cause Corrective Action Dryer Status
Make sure the process air filter is clean. Clean or replace if
necessary.
Make sure all the hose connections and all the components of
the dryer have proper seals on them (i.e. desiccant tanks, heater
box, filters, after-cooler). Tighten the connections and replace
any damaged seals.
Make sure the regeneration timing cycle matches the specs. If
not, contact the Service Department.
High Dew Point
The dew point
reading has
exceeded the
dew point alarm
set point.
Desiccant may be contaminated and blocking the air flow. Check
desiccant, replace if necessary.
Dryer Normal:
- Process blower ON.
- Process heaters ON.
- Regen heaters ON.
- Alarm Message ON.
- Alarm horn is OFF.
Make sure the process filter is clean. Clean or replace if
necessary.
Double check the alarm set point is at 35° F.
Check the positioning of the thermocouple inside the air inlet of
the drying hopper. The tip of the thermocouple should be
centered in the tube, and not touching any metal part of the tube.
The drying temperature set point is lower than dryer capabilities.
Check the dryer specs.
Make sure all the hose connections are tight.

Valve Positioning
Fault
The limit switch

been wired
correctly.
The switch is indicating the incorrect desiccant tank is in
regeneration. Check the wiring of the switch against the wiring
diagram. Make sure all the wire connections are tight.
Limit switch may be out of position. Re-adjust the switch so it
trips when it is at the high position, and avoids touching the cam
when it is at the low position.
Valve Motor
Override
The valve has
made enough
rotations and
the correct
position of the
valve was not
detected.
Limit switch may be faulty. Replace the switch and make sure
the wires are connected correctly.
