How to Identify the Cause of a
Problem
Most heater malfunctions are indicated by an illuminated Alarm light on the HTC
process air heater control panel.
A problem can trigger two types of alarms:
• Shut Down: The heater has automatically shut down because it detected a
serious problem that could damage your material or dryer.
• Passive: The heater continues to operate, but warns of a problem that could
prevent correct heating of your material. If ignored, this problem could lead to
a condition that will shut down the dryer.
When the alarm light is displayed:
1 Press the Acknowledge Alarm button to silence the alarm (see page
4-2).
2 Find the error message in the diagnostics table of this Troubleshooting
section.
3 Cyc
le the heater switch from Enable to Standby and then back to
Enable to clear and restart normal control. If the alarm reappears, the
problem was not fixed.
