Drawing : - TPC156 Issue :-1 Date : - 04/11/03 INTRODUCTION The purpose of the Ebac Timber Seasoner is to take the moisture out of the air of an enclosed space containing timber to be dried, thereby allowing the air to absorb more moisture from the timber and subsequently speeding up the whole drying process Fas inside the Timber Seasoner draws moisture laden air over the evaporator coil where it is cooled.

Using a spirit level ensure the unit is level in both directions. Failure to do so may result in the drain tray overflowing and flooding the chamber Wiring Connect a suitable control system to the Terminal Block position at one end of the equipment.

Hold the nozzles of the air hose about 150mm away from the coil to avoid damaging the fins.

If refrigerant gas is lost from the machine it will be necessary to use a Refrigeration Engineer to correct the fault. The type and quantity of refrigerant used can be found on the Serial Number plate normally positioned in the electrical box. It is essential that any refrigerant repairs are carried out by competent Refrigeration Engineers.
