suspended loads!
Ensure that the electric motors/switch cabinets are sufficiently protected
against moisture.
Use suitable workshop equipment.
Before starting maintenance work, appoint a supervisor.
Inform the responsible personnel before maintenance work on the system is
started.
Never operate the equipment when partially dismantled.
Any maintenance and repair work NOT described here may only be carried
out by Sterling service personnel or by specialised staff authorised by
Colortronic.
Disconnect the equipment from mains supply before starting
mainenance procedures to ensure that it cannot be switched on uninten-
tionally.

6.1. General Information
The dehumidified air dryers were developed for drying plastic granules. Due to their compact con-
struction, they can be employed next to the processing machine (drying hopper on the processing
machine) or with one or more drying hoppers as a movable facility (compact facility).
The dryers work according to the dehumidified air principle, i.e., the air is not only heated but also
dehumidified before it flows through the drying hopper.
In this manner, plastic granules can be dried down to a very small residual moisture content.
The drying temperature can be adjusted, if necessary, up to a maximum of +180 °C (356°F) (up-
per limit). Due to the heat that is released during water absorption in the drying cells, the lower
limit of the dehumidified air temperature is approx. +60 °C (140°F).
The drying takes place continuously, i.e., there are no rest periods due to regeneration of the dry-
ing agent.
The dryer is rated for continuous operation.
The dryer may only be put into operation if the drying hopper is filled.

STT 110 / STT 160
All function sequences are fully automatic.
The dryer is equipped with two drying cells. One drying cell is part of the drying cycle; the other
drying cell is regenerated simultaneously.
Part of the dehumidified air is used for regenerating the moist drying cell. At the beginning of rege-
neration, it is heated by the regeneration heater. After the end of the heating period, the drying cell
is cooled off by means of dehumidified air. After the switch-over time is reached, the regenerated
drying cell is included in the drying cycle, and the cycle starts again.

6.2. Drying Hopper (Optional)
The material is dried in the drying hopper.
The dehumidified air is conducted through
the material in the drying hopper and takes
up moisture. Drying hoppers must have the
appropriate dimensions for their specific use
so that the desired final moisture content is
reached. When refilling a drying hopper, the
material must first be dried completely before
material can be taken out for the first time.
If material is taken out continuously, there
must also be a continual addition of material
into the drying hopper (continuous drying
process). New (moist) material is conducted
into the upper opening of the drying hopper
and slowly reaches the material outlet at the
lower end. On its way from the upper to the
lower end, the material is dried down to the fi-
nal moisture content.
In order to guarantee a continuous drying
process, we recommend that you always
keep the drying hopper filled completely.

6.2.1. Hopper Heater
Each drying hopper has its own hopper heater. The temperature of the dehumidified air is adjus-
ted by means of the thermo regulator. The setting range is from +60 - +180 °C. The current tempe-
rature can be read off the digital display (= actual value).
The thermo regulator is factory-programmed. Nevertheless, you have to
set specific values which are dependent on the processed material.

6.3. Connection to a Pneumatic Conveying System (Optional)
Your drying facility works best in combination
with a pneumatic conveying system. In this
way, your drying hopper will always be supp-
lied with sufficient material.
The facility will only take as much material as
is required by the processing machines. The-
refore, the drying result will always be the
same.
Sterling drying hoppers are equipped with a
suitable flange for adding a Sterling pneuma-
tic conveyor.
A
Suction boxes with one or three suction tu-
bes can be supplied as well (optional). These
suction boxes are developped specifically for
this type of hopper.
The loading of the conveying line with materi-
al is adjusted by closing or by opening of the
control cover (A).

6.4. Return Air Cooler (Optional)
A return air cooler must be employed if the return air temperature is
higher than +65 °C (149°F).
F
A return air cooler improves the efficiency of the drying cells.
The lower the return air temperature, the better the efficiency of the dry-
ing cells.
&
The return air cooler can be connected to a coolant circuit or to the water mains network.

The inlet and discharge flanges are sealed with plugs, so that no dirt can enter during transport.
Plugs must be removed before assembly.
Packing materials should be disposed of according to environmental laws or reused.
The dryer or the compact unit is delivered on a pallet.
The dryer should only be moved by means of the appropriate lifting equipment (e. g. a fork lift
truck or a workshop crane).

The place selected for installation should be as free of vibrations as possible.
The main switch must be freely accessible.
Ground the equipment against electrostatic charging.
The machine must not be tilted or laid on its side.
F
Because of its compact construction the dryer can be installed directly beside the processing ma-
chine (drying hopper on the processing machine) or with one or more drying hoppers as a mov-
able facility (compact facility).
Special foundations are not necessary for installation.
The dryer must be installed on a level surface and must not be exposed to excessive humidity.
The maximum permissible ambient temperature is 45 °C (113°F).
To facilitate servicing, the dryer should be installed in such a way that that it is accessible from
3 sides. Make sure that the air filters can be changed without problems.
To conserve energy, keep the distance between dryer, hopper and processing machine as small
as possible.
The wheels of the compact unit should be locked to ensure stable installation.
The foil should be removed from the drying hopper.
7.3. Storage
The control system may only be stored at temperatures from 0 to +55°C (32 to +131 °F).
Between delivery and machine commissioning the equipment should be stored in a dry, dust-free
and vibration-free room.

from electrical power and compressed air supply.
For installation work taking place at heights of over approx. 6 feet (1829
mm), use only ladders or similar equipment and working platforms in-
tended for this purpose. At greater heights, the proper equipment for pro-
tection against falling must be worn.

8.1. Installation of the exhauster fan for regeneration of exhaust air
When plastics are being dried that release harmful gases during the drying process, care must be
taken that the regeneration exhaust air is disposed of in an environmentally sound way. At the
same time the throughput of the regeneration blower must not be altered. It should be noted when
assembling a disposal system (e.g. an exhauster system) that the regeneration exhaust air is very
humid. Thus condensation may form, which must not under any circumstances return to the dryer.
8.2. Grounding the equipment against electrostatic charging
Considerable electrostatic charging may occur in the equipment during processing of the various
materials. For this reason, all components must be sufficiently grounded, see grounding bolt
dryer (A) and drying hopper (B).
Ensure that the regulations of the local electric supply company are observed.
