D. GAS BURNER ASSEMBLY
Gas heated dryers are equipped with a gas
burner assembly consisting of three (3)
burner tubes, gas valve, glo bar, flame
sensor, sail switch, and hi-limit thermostat.
The inlet piping enters through the rear of
the dryer on the left hand side (viewing from
the front) and runs to the front of the dryer
where the gas valve is located.
E. BLOWER MOTOR and IMPELLOR
The impellor on the ML-130 is shaft driven.
The blower motor drives the shaft on which
the impellor is mounted. This enables the
impellor to run at a higher RPM, thereby
producing a higher airflow (cfm).
F. IDLER ASSEMBLY
(Viewing from the rear of the dryer) the idler
assembly is located approximately on the lower
center of the dryer. The idler assembly consists
of two (2) idler pulleys, (small and large). The
idlers’ main purpose is to reduce the speed and
increase torque provided to the tumbler
(basket) bearing. Also, at the idler assembly,
belt tension can be adjusted.
