How to Identify the Cause of a

Problem

Dryer alarms are indicated by an illuminated Acknowledge Alarm light on the

W series dryer control panel.

A problem can trigger two types of alarms:

• Shutdown: The dryer has automatically shut down because it has detected a

serious problem that could damage your material or dryer.

• Passive: The dryer continues to operate, but warns of a problem that could

prevent correct drying 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 once to silence the

optional audible alarm and display the alarm message.

Pressing the Acknowledge Alarm button once also changes the alarm LED

from blinking to solid.

2 Find the error message in the diagnostics table of this Troubleshooting

section. Take any necessary steps, as directed, to resolve the problem.

3 Note that pressing the Acknowledge Alarm button a second time will clear

the alarm. If the problem was not solved, the alarm will become active again.

There may also be a second alarm condition that occurred as a result of the first

alarm.
