Installation Notes

hazard; they must be level, easy to clean, non-slip surfaces.

To prevent damage to machines, systems and injury to people, only people authorized to perform installation and start-up tasks should do so.

Make sure that all parts of the unit remain easily accessible for maintenance and repair work.

These installation notes assume knowledge of accident prevention rules, operating conditions, and safety regulations and their implementation.

The temperature at the installation area should be above +5°C, but may not exceed a maximum temperature of 40°C. Remember that the unit will emit additional heat and moisture at the installation location. Make sure the area has sufficient ventilation. Other temperature limits apply only to special models equipped with an air-conditioned switch carbinet.

These isntallation notes assume electrical and mechanical skills gained as a result of education, experience, and training. Make sure that people performing these tasks have the appropriate skills. Obey all safety rules when working with hoists. Perform all installation tasks with the system in a depressurized, powered-down state. Our trained installers would be glad to assist you with these tasks.

3.1 Transport and preparing for assembly

3.3 Electrical connections Comply with your local energy supplier's regulations. Only Wittmann service technicians, or qualified personnel authorized by Wittmann, may set up and assign the electrical connections. Danger! High Voltage! You must equip the unit with a main fuse that will interrupt the power supply to the unit.

The system and ist accessories are delivered on pallets. Use only appropirate equipment to move the paletts (e.g., forklift, crane, etc.).

For safety reasons, the ground wire connection should be checked especially.

Only qualified personnel may operate transport or lift devices.

Install the power supply a safe distance away from hot parts.

All metal parts are removed from the unit before it is shipped. Despite our best efforts, metal parts may fall back into the unit during transport, or because of other ciricumstances.

Lay all cords for the unit such that other electrical devices cannot cause any disruptions. Be especially sure to separate control lines and data transmission cords from power cords.

Before the unit is started the first time, make sure that the unit is free of all metal parts and packaging. The unit has a protective film on it to protect it during transport and installation. Remove all protective film before operating the unit for the first time.

3.2 Requirements for installation area Run the unit ONLY in closed, dry spaces. Pay special attention to the load rating of the installation area, especially if the unit is being installed on a platform! The floors around the machine (in the building) must not present a stumbling


For three-phase units check the direction of rotation. The unit uses a right-hand field of rotation. The entire unit will have to be specially grounded if you work with materials that cause strong electrostatic discharges as they are conveyed. Cut all power to the unit before performing any work on it. This is the most effective way to prevent electrical accidents. If work on the electrical system remains uncompleted for some reason, make sure the unit cannot be accidentally put into operation. Check all electrical connections and threaded connections regularly to ensure they are tight.

3.4 Safety temperature limiter on heating units

3.6 Connecting the return air cooler (optional)

The safety temperature limiter triggers at a temperature above 400°C (752°F), and the unit switches off. If the 3 minutes waiting time for shutdown is not observed, and the temperature is too high, it also trips the safety temperature limiter. To return to operation, the safety temperature limiter must be reset with the reset button.

The return air cooler is preferably connected to a cooling water system with supply and return. The cooling water network must be designed to suit the entire cooling capacity.

3.5 Installing an extraction system for the regeneration waste air Harmful gases, which ware discharged into the environment especially by way of the regeneration waste air of the drying air generator, develop when some kinds of plastics are dried. Ask your material manufacturer in this regard. In this case, a extraction system of the regeneration air must be present.

The return air cooler is always required if the return air temperature permanently exceeds 85°C or 185°F. The return air cooler increases the efficiency of the drying agent (desiccant), so that a return air cooler may be practical even with lower return air temperature.

3.7 Installation of the integrated BS/6 - system To prevent damage to machines, systems and injury to people, only people authorized to perform installation and start-up tasks should do so.

Installing an extraction system is also practical to avoid temperatures being exceeded at the place of installation.

The MASTER loader of the BS/6 loading system should be located on the hopper closest to the dryair generator model DRYMAX.

When installing an extraction system please note that the waste air may be very moist. This can lead to the formation of condensate which must on no account reenter the drying air generator. The extraction system must not change the air throughput of the drying air generator, especially of the regeneration.

Ensure that the BS/6 loader devices are configured with the necessary jumpers (see training manual FEEDMAX BS/6).

flows back to the hopper heater, where the process air (8) heated up to 130°C / 266°F (180°C / 356°F at high heat option) and will come back into the hopper. Here, the warmed and dried air is distributed by a conical air distributor optimally routed through the hopper and the granulate is dried. The rising moist air will return again to the return air (2) and re-enters the circulation.

Description of DRYMAX operation

The description is written for the person who will be using the unit (users). This description assumes you are generally familiar with dry-air dryers. Make sure that all users have appropriate knowledge and skills.

The drying wheel is divided into 36 chambers, during operation most of the chambers are in the dehumidification process. The drying wheel rotates clockwise at a speed of about one turn per hour. The return air is dehumidified, the Köstrolith 4 AK regenerated and cooled down to resume moisture in the next step.

4.1 Segment wheel dryer DRYMAX ATON The Segment wheel dryer provides the required drying medium (process air) required for the drying process. Preferably, the DRYMAX Aton is up for special drying applications.

In the regeneration process, the Köstrolith 4 AK, which in the dehumidification process has taken up the moisture in the air, is now also dried. The regeneration filter (15) sucks ambient air through the regeneration blower (14). The regeneration air (13) passes through the middle of the drying wheel and is thereby pre-heated (7) through the regeneration heater (9) The regeneration heater heats the air up to 482°F and dehumidifies the Köstrolith 4 AK in the regeneration area of the wheel. For the regeneration waste air it is recommended to evacuate it outside or have volatile trap, because some plastics can result in harmful vapors.

The DRYMAX consists essentially of two filters, two blowers and the drying wheel. Optinal a dew point measuring device is available. The measured value is indicated and can be recorded for quality assurance.

In the tower mode the drying wheel is not turning continuously. After a certain period of time, the drying wheel is turned by several segements from the dehumidification process to get into the regeneration process. The regeneration heater must not be kept in continuous operation and allows for a energy saving process. If a dew point sensor is present, a delayed regeneration cycle can be started, depending on the moisture. The dew point sensor measures the moisture in the process air.

4.3 MSF - Material saver function The material saver function is available with drying air generators DRYMAX with integrated process heater and drying silo.

Page 8 of 44

Active drying consumes energy. This physical fact is utilised to protect the material from thermal destruction. A temperature sensor is installed in the return air to register the energy consumption in the drying silo. If no material is removed from the drying silo the return air temperature will rise. If the return air temperature rises to adjustable threshold value 'MSF set', the DRYMAX lowers the process air temperature to the temperature MSF set plus 10°C or 18°F. Granulate drying is now slowed down considerably while the material is kept dry. If the return air temperature drops below the temperatur MSF set less 10°F or 18°F for instance through a transport cycle. DRYMAX detects the drying demand and sets the prcess temperature to the specified set value 'T set'.

source. Please also refer to chapter "Setting of material charge". Please make sure that the load on the material source is optimized!

4.4.1 Principal of material conveying with integrated BS/6 The dry-air generator model DRYMAX integrated BS/6 includes up to 6 loaders, which are connected to an integrated pump.

SILO

L

S

T The pump T generates the vacuum for the conveying of resin through wand L to loader SILO and finally into drying hopper S. The conveying process works with a time sequence. The above graph explains the relationship. It shows the time over the temperature. The red upper curve shows the process air temperature, the blue lower curve shows the return air temperature. In practice the following procedure is recommended for setting the threshold value 'MSF set'. Initially set the threshold value 'MSF set' to maximum (85°C or 185°F). Run the device under normal production conditions (no machine stop-page). After approximatelx 2 hours of production a typical return air temperature will have been established (the return air temperature can be queried in the Menu 5). Set the threshold value 'MSF set' approximately 10°C or 18°F above the return air temperature.

4.4 Material conveying integrated BS/6 A trouble-free operation of the FEEDMAX loaders can only be guaranteed with the proper adjustment of the material charge on the wand at the material Drymax_ATON_F_EN_V1_3 / 28.03.12

IMM G T B The dry-air valve G selects the loader on the IMM machine. The bypass-valve of the pump T is closed and the suction box B is filled with dried resin. Immediately afterwards, the dry-air valve G is also closed and the air from the pump T conveys the material to the IMM loader. If dosing is set, the dosing valve is switched and the dry-air valve G opens. Material B is conveyed until the end of the

Page 9 of 44

conveying time. During this time, the vacuum valve of the loader IMM is open. If there is no material need for the IMM loader and SILO loader, then the bypass valve of the pump T is opened, and the dry-air valve G opens, to allow the pump T to idle without load. After a delay time of 3 minutes, the pump T will turn off.

4.4.1.1 Setting material charge Set the material charge of the loader on the suction lines or suction box.

-

The material charge is the mixing ratio of conveying air to conveying material.

+

To achieve a high conveying rate the material charge must be maximised. The maximum conveying rate is hgihly dependent on the characteristics of the granulate (size, bulk weight, shape) and the conveying line (length, number of bends, conveying height). The material charge is optimally set when the granulate is conveyed freely flowing without interruption.

Setting material charge on the suction wand Included with the device is a suction pipe (a). Depending on the design of the suction pipe, air adjustment is set by moving material hose up or down (a), turning adjusting ring (b) or moving the inner pipe on or out (c).

For changing the material charge change the suction connection in accordance with the direction of the arrows. To increase the material charge reposition the socket in the direction of +. If the material charge is to be reduced, reposition the socket in the direction of -. Secure the socket position with the locking screw.

4.5 SILMAX drying hopper (ATON in combination with SILMAX Compact) The SILMAX consists of a drying hopper, a process heater and a conical air distributor. The dried process air is heated by the process heater and fed into the drying hopper. In the drying hopper, the hot air meets the moist, cold plastic granulate and the granulate releases moisture. The moisture is supplied via the exhaust air to the DRYMAX, which prepares the process air for the next cycle. If a SILMAX compact is combined with a DRYMAX Aton the functions of menu 1 and 2 are not available. But the special functions of menu 1 are available.
