INTRODUCTION

In the NECO dryer, warm dry air is forced through the grain mass by the blower. This air warmsthe grain mass and causes moisture on the outside of the kernel to evaporate into the air which, inturn, is exhausted to the atmosphere. When the moisture is removed from the surface of thekernel by evaporation, moisture trapped inside the kernel slowly migrates to the outside and isabsorbed by the warm air. Thus, chain reaction takes place — warm air evaporates surfacemoisture which, in turn, causes moisture from inside the kernel to travel to the surface. Hot air isused not only because it holds much more moisture, but more importantly, it increases the vaporpressure of the moisture in the kernel and drives the moisture out from the interior of the kernel.The higher the surface temperature which can be achieved without damage to the interior of thekernel, the more quickly internal moisture will migrate to the surface for evaporation. The kernelwill dry more quickly, therefore allowing greater capacity in the drying system. This process takesmoisture out of the grain, but it takes one more step before the grain is ready for the bin.

The warm air leaves the grain dry, but at a temperature which is too high for storing. The bottomlayer or two (depending on the divider door location) of ducts are cooling ducts. Cool air is forcedthrough the grain mass to bring it down to storage temperature, usually about 30 degrees F. aboveoutside air temperature.

The drying process dictates that water is removed from the surface of the seed. Since mostmoisture testers test surface moisture, it seems logical that the moisture content of the grain willtest lower right after drying than it will a day later when the moisture inside the kernel has had achance to become even throughout the kernel. This does in fact take place — the phenomena isknown as “moisture rebound.” For this reason, it is advisable to dry the grain to about 1 percentless moisture content than the suggested storage moisture contents. (For additional information,see the section on “Moisture Rebound” under Operational tips.)

It is the responsibility of the owner of the machine to see that all persons involved with the dryerare knowledgeable in the operation of the machine. Read and understand this manual beforeoperating dryer.

SERIAL NUMBER

The serial number of your NECO dryer is located on the inside door of the main control panel.(The serial number should be quoted in any correspondence with the factory.)

IN CASE OF FIRE IN THE GRAIN - STOP THE BLOWER TO LIMIT THE OXYGENSUPPLY.

DO NOT LEAVE DRYER UNATTENDED FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME WHILEIN OPERATION.

DO NOT ALLOW UNTRAINED PERSONNEL, VISITORS, AND ESPECIALLYCHILDREN NEAR THE MACHINE WHILE IN OPERATION TO AVOID INJURY.

BE CERTAIN TO GUARD INTAKES OF AUGERS USED IN CONJUNCTION WITHTHE DRYER TO AVOID INJURY TO LIMBS.

7

STOP THE BLOWER IMMEDIATELY IF YOU SUSPECT THAT ANYTHING ISWRONG WITH THE GRAIN DRYER. SYMPTOMS OF A PROBLEM MAY IN-CLUDE: EXCESSIVE VIBRATION, SMOKE EMISSION FROM THE DRYER,UNUSUAL OR LOUD NOISES AND SQUEAKS.

BEWARE OF POWER LINES. THIS DRYER IS NOT INSULATED. KEEP ATLEAST 3 METERS AWAY FROM OVERHEAD ELECTRICAL WIRES. ELECTRO-CUTION CAN OCCUR WITHOUT DIRECT CONTACT.

TOWING A DRYERThings Required

1. Suitable towing vehicle.Minimum 3/4 ton truck for a 16' dryer and a 1 ton for 24' dryer. Check with D.O.T.

for acceptability of vehicle, as this may vary state to state.Good brakes on vehicle, grain dryers do not have brakes on them.Hitch capable of towing weight of dryer, a D1680 weighs approximately 4400 kg.

2. Good traveling conditions.Dryer has a very large amount of surface area, winds above 16 kph may make

towing a dryer dangerous.Icy roads and falling snow may make stopping with a dryer impossible.Soft and muddy rural roads could present a problem with the weight of the dryer.If the dryer has been towed on salty roads it would be wise to wash down dryerthoroughly and as soon as possible, as the salt has a very adverse affect ongalvanized steel.

3. Tail lights for the back of the dryer with matching plug for towing

vehicle.

4. Four red flags for dryer, two for the front and two for the back.

5. Wide Load signs, and any permits needed for towing a vehiclethat is 2.96m wide.

6. Familiarity of route.Plan out your trip ahead of time paying particular attention to low clearance bridgesand tunnels.

7. Tools.A torque wrench, drive extension, and 13/16" socket will be needed for checkingand retightening the lug bolts. The lug bolts should be checked after the firstcouple of miles, and every 80 km afterwards. It would also be wise to have asmall wrench set 3/4" and smaller, screw drivers, 5 ton jack, and tape alongfor the trip.When towing a dryer it is best to keep the full width of the dryer tires on the road,

it 's been determined that if tires are allowed to run on the edge of the roadthat they are more likely to fail.

9

8. Spare tire for dryer and tow vehicle.The dryer uses a standard 15"x8" - 6 hole implement rim with a 31 x10.5R15 radial implement retread tire. This is equivilent to a 11L-15standard implement tire.

9. Allow plenty of time to tow dryer.We recommend towing a dryer no faster than 75 kph.

10. Safety chain.Laws require safety chain from dryer to tow vehicle.

FUEL SUPPLY

Contact your gas supplier regarding location of fuel tank(s), safe storage, transportation andhandling of fuel. The storage tank must be located at least 8 m from buildings or other structures.This will vary depending on local codes.

The dryer can be connected to only one fuel type, propane or natural gas, depending on the fueltrain setup at the factory. The fuel source is connected to the bottom corner of the plumbing sys-tem upon removal of the pipe plug. When propane is the fuel source, the tank should beequipped with a vapor and a liquid tap. The liquid tap should have a rapid flow shutoff valve. Inthe event of a fuel line break, the rapid flow shutoff valve will stop the flow of propane.

It is recommended that initial dryer startup each day be done using the vapor tap. When the dryerhas run on vapor for 5 to 10 minutes or until the temperature in the dryer plenum is between 50°Cand 65°C, the liquid valve should be opened slowly to avoid tripping the rapid flow shutoff valve.When operating this valve, give it a partial turn, then allow the pressure to equalize between thetank and the dryer before opening it further. After fully opening the liquid valve, close the vaporvalve. Starting on vapor ensures the vaporizer coils are warmed before introducing liquid propaneand assures that only vaporized propane reaches the dryer burner.

FIgure 1 can be used as a guide when setting up a propane tank. One end is raised to helpprevent oil sediment from entering the dryer fuel system.

Extreme caution must be used if tank(s) for anhydrous ammonia are used for LP gasfuel to your dryer. If tank(s) are not properly purged, fuel train components may bedamaged by anhydrous ammonia. Check with your LP gas supplier for specific purg-ing procedure. Fuel train components damaged by anhydrous ammonia are notcovered under warranty.

CAUTION

EXTREME CARE MUST BE EXERCISED WHEN DOING THIS. NEVER USE ANOPEN FLAME DIRECTLY ON THE TANK.

When operating propane fueled dryers in very cold weather, the dryer may not be able to obtainsufficient fuel to reach desired operating temperature. This is due to the very low propane vaporpressure at cold temperatures. To overcome this situation, the tank can be warmed. This can beaccomplished by using an electric warming blanket that is approved for such a purpose.

Table 1 gives the vaporization rate of a 3,800 liter tank at various temperatures when the tank is25% full. If more burners are used simultaneously or low ambient temperatures are encountered,then a larger tank should be installed or additional tanks added in parallel.

The vaporization rate of propane is constantly changing due to variables of temperature andamount of liquid in the tank. The chart shown below is an approximation.

ELECTRIC POWER

Most of the wiring has been completed at the factory. There are however, a few wiring tasks thatmust be completed before you are ready to operate. A qualified electrician will be required tocomplete the wiring.

A main disconnect switch for the electrical power to the dryer must be supplied by thecustomer. This disconnect switch should be sized and installed by a certified electrician.

Copper wire of the appropriate size will have to be run between the main disconnect switch andthe distribution block located in the dryer panel. Wire size will be based on ampacity and distancefrom the main disconnect to the dryer. The serial number decal inside the panel lists the ampacityof the disconnect required by each dryer.

28

DRYER CONTROL PANEL

The control panel installed on your dryer will perform several functions automatically so that you donot have to constantly monitor the dryer. However, it is advisable to never leave the dryer unat-tended for long periods of time. The control panel will provide the following functions; fill the dryerautomatically, stop the dryer in case of auger failure, fuel failure, when wet bin is empty or dry binis full and will shut down machine in case of blower failure.

SELECTOR SWITCHES

Figure 6 shows the selector switches on the front panelof the dryer. These switches allow you tochoose the operating function of the panel.

“FILLING” Switch

This switch controls the filling and leveling auger motors. The “TEST” position bypasses all controldevices and will start these motors no matter what the dryer grain level.

WARNING: DO NOT LEAVE THE FILLING SWITCH IN THE “TEST”POSITION. THE FILLING AUGER WILL NOT STOP WHEN THEDRYER IS FULL AND GRAIN SPILLAGE COULD OCCUR.

The “AUTO” position is selected when the dryer is to be filled automatically. When the grain levelreaches the filling bin level switch, the leveling auger and fill auger will stop. The “LOW DRYER”and “WET EMPTY” switches are also included in the circuit so that incorrect grain levels will stopthe filling system from operating. NOTE: THE OVERLOAD RELAYS FOR THESE MOTORSARE INTERLOCKED IN SUCH A WAY THAT IF ONE MOTOR OVERLOADS, THE OTHER WILLALSO STOP.

“DISCHARGE” Switch

In the “AUTO” or "EMPTY" position, the dryer will discharge grain automatically. If the “DIS-CHARGE PLUGGED” switch or the “DRY FULL” switch detect grain, the unloading system willstop. When in "AUTO" position the unloading system will also stop if the burner stops for anyreason. NOTE: THE OVERLOAD RELAYS FOR THESE MOTORS ARE INTERLOCKED INSUCH A WAY THAT IF ONE MOTOR OVERLOADS, THE OTHER WILL ALSO STOP.

A

B

“BLOWER” Switch

When this switch is in the off position, turn to the start position and hold until the blower starts.When released, this switch will spring and return to the run position. If any of the safety interlocksdetect an abnormal situation or grain activates the discharge plugged switch, the burners, blowersand discharge unit will shut down. The only time the blowers will continue to run after the burnersare shut down is due to either the lack of grain against the low grain switch which is mounted onthe top body section or when the wet holding bin becomes empty or the dry grain bin becomes full.In these cases, the burners and discharge will stop but the blowers will continue to operate until theoff delay timer (4TR) times out. 4TR is adjustable from 0 to 100 minutes. This timer is present inthe case where wet grain is no longer available to the dryer, the blowers will then continue runningfor a length of time predetermined by the operator to cool grain left in the dryer.

Dryers with multiple blowers have only one blower switch. To prevent an overload of the powersource during the motor start-up, there is a time lag between the start-up of the first blower andeach subsequent blower. These time delays are incorporated into the motor starters.

“FUEL SYSTEM” Switch

The “MANUAL” position of this switch bypasses some of the control devices in the system. Forexample, if the wet surge bin were to become empty, the fuel system would not turn off. If however,the blower would stop, the fuel system would immediately be turned off. The “MANUAL” positionis used for batch drying. The dryer should not be left unattended when the fuel system is in the“MANUAL” position.

C

D

30

In the “AUTO” position, the fuel is tied in to all safety control devices. In case of auger failure ordepletion of grain supply, the fuel system will shut off as well as the rest of the dryer (except theblower). Also, if the “HIGH LIMIT” or “STATIC PRESSURE” switch detects a problem, the burnerwill be stopped.

“FUNCTION” Switch

This switch is installed to accommodate some special situations that arise when drying. The"INTERLOCK” position is the normal operating position. All control devices are in the circuit whenthis switch is in the "INTERLOCK" position and the dryer will run on automatic. The “START”position bypasses some of the control devices and is only used when starting the dryer. When the" BURNER ON” lamp is illuminated, the “FUNCTION” switch must be moved to the “INTERLOCK”position before timer 1TR times out.

E

The feedrolls and discharge augers will not start until the FUNCTION switch is in theINTERLOCK position. This switch must be turned to INTERLOCK within 30 sec-onds after the green BURNER ON lamp is illuminated. If more than 30 secondspasses (timer 1TR controls this amount of time delay), the dryer will shut down theburner(s). The dryer will then restart after purging and run through this cycle again andkeep doing this until the FUNCTION switch is turned to the INTERLOCK position. Withthe burner(s) on, grain will not move through the dryer until the FUNCTION switch ismoved to the INTERLOCK position. Failure to move the FUNCTION switch to theINTERLOCK position will cause the dryer to cycle on and off and may cause over-dryingof grain or possible fire.

The “FILL/EMPTY” position is used when filling or emptying the dryer. For example, let’s say youwish to initially fill the dryer. With the “FILLING” switch in “AUTO”, the augers would not operate ifthe FUNCTION switch is in anything other than "FILL/EMPTY" because the “LOW DRYER” switchwould not have had any grain against it. The system would see a problem and prevent the fillingauger from starting. Moving the switch to the “FILL/EMPTY” position removes the “LOW DRYER”switch from the circuit allowing filling to take place. When the dryer is full, the filling system willautomatically stop. A similar situation occurs when trying to completely empty the dryer.

“BURNER” Switch(only present on dryers with multiple burners)

Whether the dryer is going to use all heat or heat and cool will determine how many of the burnersneed to be lighted. On a dryer with two burners, the switch will be marked: 1 and 1,2. On a dryerwith three burners, the switch will be marked: 1 and 1,2 and 1,2,3. 1 is always the top burner, 2 isalways the next burner down from the top and 3 is always the bottom burner if it is present. If allheat is desired, then the selector switch would be turned on to the position marked 1,2,3. If heatand cool is desired, the selector switch would be set to the position marked 1,2.

31

“LOW DRYER” and “WET EMPTY” Lamps

Indicates that grain level is low or the wet surge bin is empty respectively. In either case, the fillingwill stop. If the fuel system and discharge switches are in the “AUTO” position, they will also stop.

“DISCHARGE PLUGGED” and “DRY FULL” Lamps

Indicates that the discharge is plugged or dry grain bin is full respectively. In either case, thedischarge system will stop. If the fuel system is in “AUTO” position, it will also stop.

“POWER” Lamp

Indicates that the dryer control panel is energized.

“IGNITION” Lamp

Indicates that an ignition attempt is prevented when either the high limit or operating limit switchesare tripped, the static pressure switch indicates insufficient pressure, or the flame safeguard relayhas tripped. An ignition attempt will only be made for a maximum of 10 seconds.

“BURNER ON” Lamp

Indicates that an ignition attempt was successful and that the scanner is detecting a proper flamesignal. The discharge system will now start automatically if the discharge switch is in “AUTO”position. When the " BURNER ON” lamp is illuminated, the “FUNCTION” switch is moved to the“INTERLOCK” position.

“LOW STATIC PRESSURE” Lamp

Indicates insufficient status pressure in the dryer. An ignition attempt will not be made until thecause of the problem is corrected.

“LIMITS EXCEEDED” Lamp

Indicates that either the high limit or operating limit switch has been tripped. An ignition attemptwill not be made. Both limits are reset by pressing the high limit reset button.

“BURNER RESET REQUIRED” Lamp

Indicates that an ignition attempt has been unsuccessful. Another attempt will not be made untilthe burner is reset by pressing the burner reset button.

32

BURNER MONITORS

There are a number of monitors and safety devices which supervise and control burner operation.They are as follows:

“HIGH TEMPERATURE LIMIT SWITCH”

This device will stop the burner if the actual plenum temperature exceeds the setting on the de-vice. The switch itself is located in the burner interlock control box and can be set from 160° to260°F. A sensing element in the dryer plenum is located in the upper flow of heated air 8 to 10feet away from the burner. It is normally set at 30° to 40° F above the drying temperature.

“STATIC PRESSURE SWITCH”

This switch monitors the static pressure produced by the blower. If a loss of static pressure isdetected (blower stops), it will shut down the dryer. The device is located in the burner interlockbox and has a copper tube extending into the upper dryer plenum where it senses the pressure.

“SCANNER”

This device is an ultraviolet flame sensor ( mini-peeper ) and detects when the burner is operating.It will turn off the fuel supply when a loss of flame is detected.

“FLAME SAFEGUARD CONTROL”

This device is the overall burner controller. It monitors the status of the static pressure switch, highlimit switch and scanner and decides when it is safe to operate the burner. It directly controls theoperation of the fuel valves and ignition transformer. The device is located in the main dryercontrol box.

“TEMPERATURE MODULATING VALVE”

This device controls the amount of fuel reaching the burner unit thus controlling the temperature ofthe dryer plenum. When set at a desired level, it keeps the plenum temperature constant over awide range of conditions. It has a sensor which is located in the plenum of the dryer to detecttemperature. The temperature setting is controlled by the knob located in the top of the valve.Turning it counter-clockwise increases the temperature, while clockwise decreases it. The actualtemperature is indicated on the thermometer next to the valve. The thermostat on the valve hasbeen calibrated to the thermometer at the factory. If recalibration of the valve becomes necessary,first let dryer warm up for 15 minutes and then simply loosen the allen screw at the top of the valve,set the knob to correspond with the thermometer and retighten the allen screw.

33

GRAIN LEVEL MONITORS

The electrical system on this dryer is capable of monitoring5 grain level switches when in the automatic drying mode.There are 3 grain monitors included on the dryer itself and 2monitors that are customer supplied that monitor wet grainsupply and dry grain supply. Following is a list of thesegrain level switches and their function.

“FILL DRYER” Switch

Located at the top of the dryer, this switch controls theoperation of the filling auger. It is mounted on an adjustablebracket so that the level of the grain in the dryer can beadjusted for different operating conditions and grain types.

“LOW DRYER”

This switch (shwon in Figure 7) is mounted on the side of the top left body section of the dryer. Itdetects when the level of the grain in the dryer is below normal. When this switch is tripped thedryer will go through an automatic shut-down cycle.

“DISCHARGE” Switch

This switch is identical to the Low Dryer switch except that it is located at the discharge point inthe rear clean-out trough. It's purpose is to detect a malfunction in the grain conveyor that takes drygrain away from the dryer. If this switch is tripped the entiredryer shuts down immediatley.

“WET EMPTY” Switch

This switch is customer supplied and is to be mounted at the bottom of the wet surge bin. It de-tects when wet grain supply is exhausted. It is field wired to the motor starter and overload relay inthe bottom of the main control panel.

“DRY FULL” Switch

This switch is customer supplied and is to be mounted at the top of the dry bin. It detects when thedry bin is full. It is also field wired to the motor starter and overload relay in the bottom of the maincontrol panel.

Figure 8 shows how the divider doors should normally bein the lower position, giving one layer of cooling. If thegrain coming out of the machine is too warm with the doorsin this position and the flap at the front fully lowered, thedoors should be placed in the upper position. Normally,placing the divider door in the upper position would onlyoccur in low moisture removal and when drying on warmdays. Note: Not all dryers are equipped with theoptional cooling floors.

FLAP POSITION - AIR DIVIDERS

The flap position is one of the fine tuning adjustments which determines the amount of cooling airthat reaches the grain (see Figure 9). On all dryers, the air divider flap is directly in line with thehandle on the outside of the fan connection housing so one has a visual check on the actual posi-tion of the flap. The lower the flap handle is on the slotted adjusting arm, the morecooling air is allowed through to the bottom for cooling.

When initially starting the dryer on a batch ofgrain or when drying without any cooling (allheat), the divider doors can be opened toallow heated air to reach all of the dryer. Thecooling flap should be completely raisedwhen doing this so that all of the air is heatedby the burner.

The drying of the first batch of grain is donemore efficiently by recirculating it back intothe dryer to maintain a continuous flow. Thiscan be done by putting it back on the truck,putting it back into the wet holding bin, or byusing a portable auger and putting it directlyinto the top of the dryer.

The function of the pressure regulator (shown in Figure 10) is to supply a constant pressure ofpropane to the temperature modulating valve on the dryer. Under normal operation, the pressureon the regulator gauge can be set between 3 an 8 psi.

It is best to have the pressure regulator set just high enough to maintain operating temperature.This allows the modulating valve to hold a more even temperature. It may also be necessary toincrease the pressure as the weather gets colder, as the higher pressure is needed to hold oper-ating temperature.

NOTE: It is normal for the pressure on the regulator gauge to rise on shut-down. The reason forthis is that the regulator gauge is on the vaporizer loop between two solenoid valves. When thevalves close, the vaporizer is still warming the propane and it is expanding, causing the pressureto rise. Should this pressure become too great, there are pressure relief valves in this loop torelieve any extreme pressure before any damages could occur.

NOTE: ALWAYS INVESTIGATE THE CAUSE OF A TRIPPED CIRCUIT BREAKER OROVERLOAD RELAY BEFORE RESUMING OPERATIONS.

If the filling system stops before the dryer is full:

Check motor circuit breakers.

Check motor overload relays.

Check control circuit breakers.

If the filling system fails to start:

Check motor circuit breakers.

Check the motor overload relays.

Check main power switch.

Check control circuit breakers.

Check control panel switch positions.

37

START-UP PROCEDURE

Fill dryer according to FILL INSTRUCTIONS. Before ignition can take place, the dryer mustbe full or all ducts above the grain level must be closed off to allow at least 1" of staticpressure in the dryer with the blower operating.

On propane fueled dryers, open vapor valve on propane tank.

Open all manual gas valves on dryer.

Adjust pressure regulator to approximately one - half of normal operating pressure.

Set temperature controller to 30°C over ambient.

Set the following switches to:

FUNCTION switch in START position.

FILL switch in AUTO position.

BLOWER switch to Momentary Start (for less than 1 sec.) and then to ON position.

DISCHARGE switch in AUTO position.

FUEL SYSTEM switch in AUTO position. (After blower is running)

The burner circuits will now be energized. There will be a 30 second delay before an ignitionattempt is made. The illumination of the IGNITION lamps will signal the start of an ignition attempt.The fuel valves will open and the ignition transformer will be energized. When the burners igniteand the scanner has verified that flame exists, the green BURNER ON operating lampswill be illuminated. The FUNCTION switch must now be put in the INTERLOCK position.The feedrolls and discharge augers will not start until the FUNCTION switch is in the INTERLOCKposition. This switch must be turned to the INTERLOCK within 30 seconds after thegreen BURNER ON lamp is illuminated. If more than 30 seconds passes (timer 1TR controlsthis amount of time delay), the dryer will shut down the burner(s). The dryer will then restart afterpurging and run through this cycle again and keep doing this until the FUNCTION switch is turnedto the INTERLOCK position. With the burner(s) on, grain will not move through the dryer until theFUNCTION switch is moved to the INTERLOCK position. Failure to move the FUNCTION switchto the INTERLOCK position will cause the dryer to cycle on and off and may cause over-drying ofgrain or possible fire.

The discharge rate of the grain is adjusted to the appropriate level with the Electronic MoistureController, refer to the instructions listed in this manual.

For propane fueled dryers, allow the dryer to warm up for 5 - 10 minutes then slowly open theliquid valve on the propane tank. Shut off the vapor valve at the propane tank.

Set regulator to normal operating pressure.

Slowly bring the dryer up to the desired operating temperature.

38

OPERATIONOPERATING TIPS FOR MAXIMUM CAPACITY

BLOWER SPEED

The blower on the dryer was designed for distinctive characteristics. When operated at normalspeed, the blower will put out enough air to do an adequate job of drying. If you increase thespeed of the blower it will put out a significantly larger volume of air. Our recommendation is that aperson can increase the speed of the blower until the air starts to lift kernels of grain out of theducts, then run at a speed just lower than this. On rapeseed it may be 540 RPM, where as inbarley and wheat it may be as high as 600 or 650 RPM. These speeds can be accomplished bychanging motor pulleys: 6.8 = 538 RPM, 7.4 = 586 RPM, 8.0 = 634 RPM.

CAUTION: Do not exceed a blower speed of 650 RPM.

In certain cases where grain is being blown out of one or two ducts for no apparent reason, thecause may be trash that has piled up in corners of the machine as it moves along by a duct, itallows more air to flow at that particular point. The thin layer of grain which covers the trash maybe picked up and blown out. This may be more noticeable in flax and rapeseed. Try to raise orlower the leveling auger or the bin fill switch to allow the trash to pile up at the end of the machine.

CAUTION: Never go on top of dryer while operating to avoid injury by movingparts.

It is desirable to clean the wet grain if convenient before drying. Combines should be adjusted toprovide the cleanest sample.

TEMPERATURE RECOMMENDATIONS

In making temperature recommendations it is NECO’s firm belief that as long as the grain's abilityto germinate is not affected by drying, then there is no damage to the milling, malting, feeding orprotein quality of the grain.

A simple check to see what maximum temperature a person can operate at is when the machineis operating in the batch or stationary mode. We suggest that people do not exceed the maximumtemperature that swaths might get on a hot day, unless the grain is for feed. We have recordedswath temperature in excess of 55°C, therefore, in absence of other technical date, we suggestthat farmers use this as a maximum and suggest if the grain is quite damp, that a little be movedthough the dryer to avoid any over drying and allowing the grain to mix.

To avoid tripping the "High Temperature Limit" switch, limit the drying temperature to 230° F.

To determine correct kernel temperature, take a sample from a duct at the lower part of the heat-ing section. Put into an insulated (covered) container, with a thermometer directly in the grain.After 10 minutes record the temperature reading. Putting a thermometer directly in the dryer onlygives the temperature of the air between the kernels and not the correct temperature of kernelswhich is required.

39

RECOMMENDED MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES IN THE NECO DRYER

SPECIFIC CROPS

Rapeseed: In the NECO dryer, rapeseed is as trouble free as any other crop to dry. Thescreenless design is the major reason for this. There are several things to watch for however. Inrapeseed containing pods it is advisable to clean out the machine after every days’ operation toprevent trash build up and plugging in the machine. Also, the temperature must be watchedcarefully. Combustion is known to have occurred in rapeseed when the seed temperature reachedabout 70°C. It is possible for this to happen in plugged areas of the machine.

Empty the machine daily to ensure that it is not plugged with trash. Wind can cause trash toaccumulate in one area.

Flaxseed: Because of the shape of flaxseed, the same conditions exist with flaxseed as withrapeseed. Flax is one of the most difficult crops to force air though. Therefore, by keeping itmoving it will stay loose and more air will pass through. Flaxseed also has the characteristic that itwill tend to stick together and to the walls of the machine if it is not kept moving at all

Table 4.

CAUTION: The temperatures Table 4 must be used with care. In cases where the grainhas a lot of trash, when drying high moisture grain, or is immature or frozen, drying at theabove temperatures may not be possible. In cases where there is blocking in themachine due to trash, it is possible for this material to become subject to sponta-neous combustion. In this case and in any case where a person may see smokecoming from the machine, the blower should be stopped immediately. The mate-rial will generally smother itself in a few minutes. As insurance, a person may want toopen the back door and check that the material has been extinguished.

Under normal circumstances, always cool the grain when stopping the machine to avoidpossible combustion which can occur in any grain.

Barley, Wheat and Oats: These crops dry relatively trouble free. One must be sure to clean themachine out after every couple of days operation in order to clean any possible trash blockages.

Specialty Crops: Feel free to contact a factory representative.

“MOISTURE REBOUND”

Moisture rebound can be defined as the equalization of moisture within a kernel after being rapidlydried. Since moisture is removed from the outer part of the kernel first, the inside is at a highermoisture content. Rebound is just this evening out. This can occur on a hot day in the field as wellas in the bin.

Moisture rebound is a consideration that should be checked and allowed for under normal dryingoperations. The amount of moisture rebound encountered will vary depending upon the amount ofmoisture removed, and how fast the moisture is removed.

By taking a sample of grain which has just been dried, placing it in a tightly sealed container forover night and then re-checking the moisture content again the next morning, you will be able todetermine amount of moisture rebound and how much you will have to “overdry” the grain in orderto compensate “moisture bound”.

OPERATION IN ADVERSE WEATHER

Most operators, when drying, hope that all of their drying can be done early in the fall when theweather is warm and sunny. Unfortunately, this does not always happen.

The factor which has the most influence on drying is the temperature of the outside air which isused to heat the grain. It does not effect the capacity of the machine, however, it will increase thefuel costs of drying. The second factor which will influence operating is the temperature of thegrain which is to be dried. In this case, both fuel consumption is increased and the capacity of thedryer is reduced because the grain must be heated more than in warm weather drying.

Drying in rainy weather does effect the operation of the machine. However, the problem is not assevere as some people may think. The amount rain water that would enter the dryer is signifi-cantly less than the amount of internal moisture the dryer is capable of removing from the grain.One can expect a decrease in capacity of about 10-15% if the dryer is operated in the rain.

41

DURING OPERATION

The following conditions will result in an automatic shut down.

Wet bin out of grain; indicated by WET EMPTY lamp.

Low grain in dryer; indicated by LOW DRYER lamp. If this occurs, following are the most prob-able causes:

•Motor circuit breakers on filling/leveling motors.

•Overloaded filling/leveling motors.

•A mechanical malfunction in the filling auger.

Discharge plugged; indicated by the DISCHARGE PLUGGED lamp. If this occurs, following arethe most probable causes.

•Dry auger mechanical malfunction.

•Dry auger motor circuit breaker tripped.

Dry bin is full; indicated by DRY FULL lamp.

Dry auger or discharge motor overloaded; no indicating lamps indicate this condition. Can checkthis by resetting dry auger and discharge motor overloads or trying discharge system on empty.

Fuel supply being interrupted; no direct indication lamps indicate this condition. Pressure onprimary pressure gauge will be at zero.

Excess temperature condition; when FUNCTION switch is in the INTERLOCK position, the HIGHLIMIT lamp will come on. If the plenum temperature exceeded the setting on either the high limitswitch or the operating limit, the circuit will be tripped. Push the HIGH LIMIT RESET button toreset.

Low static pressure; when FUNCTION switch is in the INTERLOCK position, the LOW STATICPRESSURE lamp will be illuminated. NOTE: IF THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT, THE LAMPMAY NOT ILLUMINATE. YOU WILL HAVE TO MAKE AN IGNITION ATTEMPT WHILE WATCH-ING FOR A FLICKER IN THE LAMP.

Blower motor overload; will result in a low static pressure condition indicated as describedabove.

42

If the burner(s) will not ignite, the following should be checked.

FUNCTION switch should be in START.

If any RED indicating lamp is on, investigate the problem.

If the ignition lamp illuminates for 10 seconds but the burner(s) never lights, check fuel supply andthe gap between the electrode and the burner.

If the IGNITION lamp is illuminated for 10 seconds and the burner ignites but goes out at the sametime as the IGNITION lamp, the scanner may be defective or the sight pipe is plugged with debris.

DRYING THE LAST BATCH

When drying the last batch of grain, whether for periodic clean out, to change grains or the grainsource has become exhausted, the grain remaining in the dryer can be dried by recirculating thegrain or by “Batch Drying”. On continuous flow, the grain is dried evenly from all sides as it movesdownward in the dryer. The grain is dried faster and more efficiently than as a batch. In caseswhere a batch must be dried, it is best done by recirculating some of the grain, allowing the grainto dry. With some types of grain it is necessary to dry more evenly, but also to reduce the dryingtime. In some cases, it may be almost impossible to dry without moving the grain a little, espe-cially with flax, rapeseed and other small grains.

The NECO dryer is capable of being operated as a batch dryer; however when the dryer is usedin this method, it is susceptible to the same problems as a recirculation batch dryer.

Since the grain is not moving during batch drying, the drying temperature should belowered to avoid overheating some of the grain. See the following pages for recom-mended maximum temperatures in NECO dryer.

CAUTION: Never leave the dryer unattended when operating in manual position.

Test grain samples from several areas of the dryer and average them until the average grainmoisture is acceptable. Turn the fuel switch off and allow the blower to continue until the grain hascooled to within 20°F of ambient temperature or 40°F. To empty the dryer, see next page.

CAUTION: To avoid injury, DO NOT open rear door while the blower is operating.

Excessive fuel pressure may blow out pilot upon ignition, reduce fuel pressure to 3 to 5 psi retryignition.

43

EMPTYING THE DRYER

FUNCTION switch in FILL/EMPTY position.

DISCHARGE switch in EMPTY position.

All other switches in OFF position.

The dryer will now empty out completely. The DISCHARGE PLUGGED switch is included in thecircuit when the DISCHARGE switch is in the EMPTY position.

NEVER ATTEMPT TO UNPLUG EQUIPMENT WHILE THERE IS APOSSIBILITY OF SOMEONE ELSE RESETTING DISCHARGE.

Check control circuit breakers.If the unloading system stops before dryer isempty:

Check the DRY/FULL and the DISCHARGElamps. If either is illuminated, the dischargesystem will not operate.

Check motor circuit breakers.

Check motor overloads relays.

Check control circuit breakers.

If the unloading system fails to start:

Check the control panel switch positions.

Check the DRY/FULL and the DISCHARGElamps. If either is illuminated, the dischargesystems will not operate.

Check motor circuit breakers.

Check the overload relays.

Check that main power switch is on.

SHUT DOWN PROCEDURE

Turn off the fuel supply at its source. (Propane tank or gas valve furthest away from dryer).

Allow the burner(s) to operate until all fuel in the lines has been consumed.

Close the quick shut-off valves.

Turn off all switches except the blower switch(es).

Allow blower(s) to operate for sufficient time to cool grain. Usually 15 - 20 minutes is adequate.

Turn off blower(s).

Turn off main power supply.

NOTE: ALWAYS INVESTIGATE THE CAUSE OF A TRIPPED CIRCUIT BREAKER OROVERLOAD RELAY AND RECTIFY BEFORE CONTINUING OPERATIONS.

44

DRYER CLEANOUT AND STORAGE

Upon completion of drying on variety of grain or at the end of the season, the dryer should becompletely cleaned out. This can be done simply in the NECO dryer by swinging open the cleanout door handles. This allows the trough under the augers and meters to fall open. By openingand closing them rapidly it will knock any lodged kernels free. Then by turning the dischargeswitch on it will rotate the meters allowing the kernels to fall off the top of them. The rear clean outtrough can be opened to clean the rear auger. The machine should now be completely free of anygrain.

CAUTION: TO AVOID INJURY TO LIMBS, DO NOT LOWER REAR TROUGHWHILE MACHINE IS RUNNING.

For storage, these doors should be left open so that rain may fall through. This eliminates grainrotting, sprouting, rusting of the machine and the need for a roof. To reclose them, a person mayhave to assist the outside door with their hands.

The belts should be loosened and removed. They should be stored in a dark place.

The chains should be removed and lubricated, then stored in an air tight container.

Any scratches should be painted to preserve the appearance of the machine.

45

MAINTENANCE

LUBRICATION

The NECO dryer has a very minimum number of moving parts and therefore lubrication is at aminimum as well. All the bearings are sealed to minimize lubrication requirements. Below is aschedule of necessary lubrication.

CAUTION: DO NOT go near shafts or any augers or any moving part if themachine is running. DO NOT go up the ladder if the machine is running.

NOTE: Clean the plenum daily or when trash accumulates and before storage or over winter.Always leave the cleanout doors open when dryer is not in use to allow rain, etc. to pass through.

NOTE: On greaseable sealed bearings, DO NOT OVER GREASE. Over greasing will force outthe seals causing contamination and rapid bearing wear from dust.

GAS PORTS

Conduct initial inspection within the first month after commissioning. Visually check the gas portsof new burner assemblies for any piping scale or debris. Use a pin vise and a #47 drill bit toremove any blockages (do not use an electric drill).

Annual inspections are normally adequate once the initial piping debris is removed. The operat-ing conditions of the burner will determine how frequently maintenance is actually required.

SOLENOID VALVES

All solenoid valves should be cleaned periodically. The time between cleanings will vary depend-ing on the medium and service conditions. In general, if the voltage to the coil is correct, sluggishvalve operation, excessive noise, or leakage will indicate that cleaning is required. In the extremecase, faulty valve operation will occur and the valve may fail to open or close. See the additionalinstructions located at the end of this manual for the correct cleaning procedure.

APPENDIX

GRAIN DRYING TERMS &DEFINITIONS

The following terms are more commonly used in grain drying. You will find these helpful in gaininga thorough understanding of grain drying.

Aeration: The moving of air through stored grain at low air-flow rates generally between 0.2 and1.1 CFM per bu. for purposes of cooling and ventilating the grain.

Air Pressure Switch: (Static Pressure Switch) A switch controlled by the air pressure in theplenum chamber. Should air pressure be relieved, this switch breaks contact and stops the flow ofelectrical current to the solenoid valve, thus shutting off the fuel supply to the heating unit.

Air Velocity: The speed of air flow in feet per minute through a given cross sectional area. Thisis determined by dividing the quantity of air flow in cu. feet per minute by the cross sectional areaof the air passage.

Ambient Temperature: Outside air or atmospheric temperature.

Automatic Temperature Control: A mechanical device located in the fuel system of the heatunit which controls the fuel flow at the burner orifice to maintain constant temperature.

B.T.U. (British Thermal Unit): A measure of quantity of heat. (One B.T.U. will raise the tempera-ture of one pound of water 1 degree Fahrenheit.)

B.T.U. per hr.: A common standard by which a heating unit is rate. ( A heating unit is usuallyrated at its maximum output. It is also written B.T.U.H.)

Bushel: One bushel equals 1.2 cu. ft. for purposes of calculations.

C.F.M. (cubic ft. per minute): Fans are rated at so many C.F.M. at a given R.P.M. workingagainst a determined static pressure. Fan design determines at what R.P.M. and in what staticpressure range the fan will operate most efficiently.

Continuous Heated Air Drying: Relatively shallow columns of grain flow down through the dryercontinuously with air passing through.

Cooling Cycle: (Common to Batch Type Dryer) The period of time that grain in the tank issubjected to air movement by the fan without the burner being lighted. Grain should be cooled

48

down to within 20 to 30 degrees F. of ambient temperature or 40 degrees F. after being dried withsupplemental heat, whichever is warmer.

Drying Period: The period of time the grain is subjected to drying air. The length of the dryingperiod will be determined by these factors: (1) kind of grain being dried; (2) moisture content ofthe grain; (3) moisture content desired in the finished grain; (4) air flow per bushel; (5) cleanlinessof grain in the dryer.

Drying Front: Point at which air traveling through the grain reaches the equilibrium moisturecontent of the grain and cannot pick up any more moisture.

Drying Zone: A layer of grain in which moisture content is being reduced at any given timeduring the drying process and includes the drying front.

Exhausted Air: The air leaving the grain after having absorbed as much moisture as possible.

Heat of Vaporization: It takes 1060 B.T.U.’s to evaporate 1 pound of water (theoretically).

Heated Air Drying: The drying which is done with high air-flow rates along with high dryingtemperatures at 100 degrees to 160 degrees F. This type of drying is used in batch, recirculatingcontinuous flow, truck, and big batch dryer.

High Temperature Limit Switch: A safety switch is actuated when the heat-sensing elementexceeds the control dial setting. This switch will break contact and disrupt the flow of electricalcurrent.

L.P. Gas: A petroleum product normally stored and transported as a liquid under pressure. Boil-ing point is (-44 degrees F) and, therefore, has little vapor pressure at very cold temperatures.

Linkage: Operates Flow-Control Valve.

Flow-Control Valve: Controls the amount of fuel the burner receives. Designed for throttlingservice and is not intended for tight shutoff.

Temperature Controller: Sends a signal to Modulating Motor which operates the Flow-ControlValve regulating dryer plenum temperature.

Thermocoupler Sensor: Senses plenum temperature and sends a signal to TemperatureController.

Manometer: A “U” shaped transparent tube partially filled with liquid (water) of a definite specificgravity. One end of the tube is connected to the plenum chamber, while the other end is vented toatmospheric pressure. In measuring the difference between plenum pressure and atmosphericpressure we arrive at the static pressure. This is the difference, in inches, between the heights ofthe two water columns.

Moisture Content: The moisture content of a material is measured by dividing the weight of thewater which it contains by the total weight of the material and water.

49

Moisture Rebound: When moisture is removed from kernels of grain very rapidly, it will beremoved from the surface faster than the interior of the kernel. After this grain is allowed to sit fora period of time, the moisture will even out within the kernel. This phenomena, when observed ona moisture meter, shows the grain testing drier than it actually is when taken from the dryer.

Natural Air Drying: Drying with low air flow of 3 to 15 C.F.M. per bu. and no heat, or just a littleheat to bring the humidity of the air to the desired level to give dryness wanted in the dried grain.This drying is associated with multiple-layer drying, in-storage grain drying and bin or buildingdrying.

Plenum: An enclosed volume of moving air under greater pressure than the surrounding con-tainer. Size and shape of the plenum area has a direct effect on fan performance and air distribu-tion. In a dryer, the air entering this area is heated.

Point of Equilibrium: The point at which grain and the surrounding air are in equilibrium in vaporpressure. Under these conditions, no transfer of moisture will take place.

Pressure Regulator: A mechanical unit which, through use of diaphragm, spring and valve,reduces a high fluctuating pressure to a lower steady pressure.

PSI (pounds per square inch): A unit to measure the intensity of pressure.

Relative Humidity: A measure of the moisture content of the air relative to fully saturated air.

Relief Valve: A valve which protects the fuel system against excessive pressures.

R.P.M. (revolutions per minute): The common method of expressing the speed of rotatingparts.

Solenoid Valve: A valve which is normally closed and opened by electro-magnetic pull on thesolenoid plunger as current passes throughout the solenoid coil.

Static Pressure: A measure of the air pressure in the plenum chamber. (Usually expressed ininches of water column.) Small kernel grains (such as rapeseed and flax and feed grains packclose together and offer greater resistance to air movement than corn, thus causing higher staticpressures to develop and, consequently, a lower fan volume flow).

Temperature Rise: The difference between ambient temperature and plenum temperature isreferred to as the temperature rise. A thermometer is provided to register temperature rise insome dryers.
