Installation _____________________________

Requirements

The inlet water connection to the dryer is a 3/4-11.5 NH, the

S.A.F.E. system 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 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 S.A.F.E. system 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.

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.

SENSOR ACTIVATED FIRE

EXTINGUISHING (S.A.F.E.)

SYSTEM _______________________

The exclusive Sensor Activated Fire Extinguishing (S.A.F.E.)

system 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 S.A.F.E. system 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.

We have tried to make this manual as complete as possible

and hope you will find it useful. ADC reserves the right to

make changes from time to time, without notice or obligation,

in prices, specifications, colors, and material, and to change

or discontinue models.

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 owner’s responsibility to see that the

necessary or required water, water pressure, pipe size, or

connections are provided. The manufacturer assumes no

responsibility if the S.A.F.E. system is not connected, installed,

or maintained properly.
