the installation is adequate and conforms with local and state regulations or codes. In the absence of such
codes, ALL plumbing connections, material, and workmanship must conform to the applicable
requirements of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 or the CAN/CGA-B149, INSTALLATION
CODES - both the latest edition.
IMPORTANT: Failure to comply with these codes or ordinances, and/ or the requirements stipulated in
this manual, can result in personal injury and improper operation of the dryer.
The dryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off
valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or greater
than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
IMPORTANT: Failure to isolate or disconnect the dryer from the gas supply as noted can cause
irreparable damage to the gas valve and will VOID THE WARRANTY.
WARNING: FIRES or EXPLOSION COULD RESULT.
Gas Supply
The gas dryer installation must meet the American National Standard, National Fuel Gas Code Z223.1-
LATEST EDITION, as well as local codes and ordinances and must be done by a qualified professional,
NOTE: Undersized gas piping will result in ignition problems, slow drying, increased use of
energy, and can create a safety hazard.
The dryer must be connected to the type of heat/ gas indicated on the dryer data label. If this information
does not agree with the type of gas available, do not operate the dryer. Contact your local dealer or the
Wascomat Sales Department.
IMPORTANT: Any burner changes or conversions must be made by a qualified licensed professional.
The input ratings shown on the dryer data label are for elevations of up to 1,999 feet. The adjustment or
conversion of the dryer(s) in the field for elevations over 2,000 feet are made by changing each burner
orifice. If these conversions are necessary, contact your local dealer or the Wascomat Sales Department.
Safety 15
Natural Gas
If the pressure is too low, ignition failure and/or slow drying times may result. Excessively high supply
pressure will result in erratic operation of the gas valves internal pressure regulator. Further information in
section: Gas connection.
Propane Gas
Dryers made for use with propane gas have the gas valve pressure regulator blocked open, so that the
gas pressure must be regulated upstream of the dryer. In accordance with American Gas Association
(AGA) standards, a gas pressure regulator, when installed indoors, must be equipped with a vent limiter or
a vent line must be installed from the gas pressure regulator vent to the outdoors. The water column
pressure must be regulated at the source (propane tank), or an external regulator must be added to each
dryer. Further information in section: Gas connection.
Piping/Connections
The dryer is provided with a 1/2” N.P.T. inlet pipe connection extending out the rear area or through the top
of the dryer. For ease of servicing, the gas supply line of each dryer should have its own shut-off valve.
The size of the gas supply line (header) will vary depending on the distance this supply line travels from
the gas meter or, in the case of propane gas, the supply tank, the number of tees, other gas-operated
appliances, etc. Specific information regarding supply line size should be determined by the gas supplier.
NOTE: Undersized gas supply piping can create a low or inconsistent gas pressure which will
result in erratic operation of the burner ignition system.
Consistent gas pressure is essential at ALL gas connections. It is recommended that a 3/4- inch pipe gas
loop be installed in the supply line serving the bank of dryers. An in-line pressure regulator must be
installed in the gas supply line (header) if (natural) gas line pressure exceeds 12-inches water column
pressure.
IMPORTANT: The information regarding the settings of the water column pressure for Natural gas
dryers and Propane gas dryers is found in section: Gas connection. The pressure is
required at the gas valve pressure tap of each dryer for proper and safe operation.
A 1/8” N.P,T. plugged tap, accessible for test gauge connection, must be installed in the main gas supply
line immediately upstream of each dryer.
IMPORTANT: Pipe joint compounds that resist the action of natural gas and propane gas MUST BE
used.
WARNING: Test ALL connections for leaks by brushing on a soapy water solution (liquid detergent
also works well). NEVER TEST FOR GAS LEAKS WITH AN OPEN FLAME.
ALL components / materials must conform to NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE specifications. It is important
that gas pressure regulators meet applicable pressure requirements and that gas meters are rated for the
total amount of appliance BTU’s being supplied.

21:3 NO INTERLOCK
This error code is generated by the MCU for drum motor.
The MCU must be powered with 230V / 50 or 60 Hz on the interlock input in order to drive the motor. This signal is a
confirmation that the door is closed and locked.
MCU receives its commands to rotate the drum from the CPU via a serial communication link between the MCU and
CPU. Since the CPU also has access to the interlock signal, the CPU must never send a run command to the MCU if
the interlock signal is missing. If this does happen, this error code will be shown.
Possible causes:
The cause of this error code being activated can be e.g. a break in the cable leading the interlock signal to the MCU.
There may also be an error in the connector in the door lock, which connects 230V / 50 Hz to the interlock signal. An
error in the interlock circuits of the MCU can also set this error code.
Recommended actions:
1. Use a multimeter to check that the interlock signal is present on X302:1-2 when the door lock is activated. Read
also bit 1 in the second byte under MCU STATUS in the service program (the bits are numbered from 0 to 7 where
bit 0 is on the far right). If bit 1 in the second byte is 1 then the lock is open, while a 0 indicates that the lock is
closed.
2. Replace the defective part.
21:4 NO COMMUNICATION
