Series 100 Dryer Controls

Series 100 Controls
The Series 100 computer control

Simple Operation ... Outstanding Performance.
These single fan dryers feature microprocessor based controls with computer assisted operation and automated load and unload capabilities. The Series 100 computer control eliminates 99% of all moving parts in the control box, such as troublesome timers, mechanical relays, thermostats and time delays. Available in 13 models ranging in capacities from 120bph to 1155bph, these dryers are a reliable, system for today's demanding drying applications.

Each Competitor Series dryer comes with the grain sampler as a standard feature. This enables the user to safely obtain a dry grain sample.

Grain Sampler with Moisture Control

Easy Cleanout

Commercial SCR, gear driven, single chain metering roll drive.

1: The auger drive pulley is visible through the perforated cover to verify operation

2: Level auger mounted on oil impregnated wood hanger bearings aids in long life and dependability

3: Perforated wet bin comes standard on 16' to 26' dryers (optional on 8' to 14' )

4: 0.094 ( 3/32" ) galvanized or stainless steel perforated screens

5: 0.050" galvanized steel small grain perforated screens

6: 14" grain columns for maximum capacity and even, efficient drying

7: Large 15" wide door for access to unload auger

8: Column access doors allow for easy, fast column unloading if necessary, and access to meter rolls

9: Clean out doors allow easy cleaning of bottom auger

10: Adjustable gates regulate grain flow and allow manual column emptying

11: Heavy auger with 1/4" flight for longer life. Auxiliary auger overloads are provided for an additional load and unload auger up to 7.5 horsepower.

12: Commercial SCR gear driven, single chain metering roll drive. Full length hardened, extruded aluminum meter rolls ensure gentle, accurate grain flow

13: State-of-the-art monitoring and temperature control system for trouble-free operation

14: Safety disconnect circuit breakers for safe, economical installation

15: On/Off or High/Low cycling burner

16: Light weight, high efficiency fan blades are used placing less stress on the motor at startup. An adjustable pitch allows it to achieve the highest possible airflow.

17: All galvanized fan housing eliminates rust and corrosion

18: Air mixing chambers thoroughly mix heat and air before it enters the plenum chamber

19: Work light provides convenience and safety in poorly lit areas

			Fans and Heaters The high efficiency, one-piece fan and heater utilizes only low speed, low noise fans, while providing optimum heated air flow for every drying application. All units use fiberglass reinforced polypropylene fan blades that feature an extremely low starting load, high air flow across a wide static pressure range, precise balance and quiet operation. The Optimizer Blue Burn System is standard on all LP models. Versatile on/off or high/low cycling assures energy efficient burner operation for all fuel mixes. An Electronic Ignition System is used to monitor the burner and a view window is provided to observe burner operation. Additional features include large service access doors and oil filled gas gauges.		Consistent Grain Drying The 100 Series dryers feature air mix chambers which thoroughly mix immediate burner heat with ambient air creating an even drying temperature in the plenum chamber throughout the front, back and sides. An optional fill auger distribution pan is also available if adverse harvest conditions result in trash filled wet grain. The pan helps distribute fines in the top of the dryer allowing unobstructed airflow and uniform grain movement throughout the dryer.

			Basket Features Several unique basket features are available for convenience and drying efficiency. Perforated wet bins are used to enhance preheating and allow visual inspection of the grain flow. The low 14' 6" height with wet bin allows the dryer to fit in places others can't, as well as improve the capacity of drying. The wet bin comes standard on 16' to 26' dryers and is an available option on 8' to 14' dryers. Wide 14" grain columns hold the maximum amount of grain while assuring even, efficient drying from the inside to the outside of the column. The plenum also has an air mixing chamber to mix the air and heat, and to shield the grain columns from direct contact with the burner flame.

			Large Plenum Clean Out Door Sealer For easy access to the unload auger and metering rolls a large plenum clean out door with sealing strips was added to prevent air pressure and heat loss into the unload chamber.

			Outer Screen Options Double galvanized 3-piece steel dryer screens (G165, 2 ounce nominally applied galvanizing) are used for increased protection from the elements. Also available are small grains, 0.050" perforated galvanized screens and optional stainless steel bolts, nuts and outer screens for the utmost in corrosion resistance.
