Presentation Transcript

  1. Features of Control • Programmable clean lint screen reminder • OPT is available in capacities of 50 to 170 lb • Operating cost savings • Easy manual programming and infrared using OPTimum software • 30 fully programmable cycles with factory settings • Cycles can be modified and turned off/on based on requirements • We offer: timed dry, auto dry (based on first heat cycle), and moisture dry (samples dryness level throughout ENTIRE cycle) • Anti-wrinkle feature • Tumbles load every 2 minutes for 60 minutes after cycle ends • Less energy usage • Optional end of cycle signal output

  2. Controls • Easy and intuitive to operate • Select cycle using arrows and press START Single Pocket Tumblers Stack Tumblers

  3. Cycle Types • 3 cycle types • Time Dry • Programmable time and temperature • Auto Dry • 11 programmable Automatic Dryness Levels and programmable temperature • Moisture Dry (Optional) • Will dry to programmed moisture level at programmed temperature

  4. Cycle Types Time Dry Moisture Dry • Cycle On/Off • Reversing Segment • On/Off • Rotate and Stop Time • Drying Segment • Temperature and Time • Cool Down Segment • Temperature OR Time • Cycle On/Off • Material (Cotton, Blend, Bedding, Delicate, Synthetic or Wool) • Time Past Target (Advanced Option) • Reversing Segment • On/Off • Rotate and Stop Time • Drying Segment • Temperature and Moisture Level (0%, 1%, 3%, 5%, 7%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%) • Cool Down Segment • Temperature OR Time Auto Dry • Cycle On/Off • Reversing Segment • On/Off • Rotate and Stop Time • Drying Segment • Temperature and Dryness Level • Cool Down Segment • Temperature OR Time

  5. Cycle Types Time Dry • Temperature • Time Auto Dry • Temperature • Dryness Level Moisture Dry • Material • Temperature • Target Moisture

  6. Multiple Drying Segments • Multiple Drying Segments Theory • Fact: Wet linens can handle more heat than dry linens. • Theory: While linens are wet, dry at high heat and gradually lower temperature to recommended drying temperature as more water evaporates and load gets dryer • Multiple Drying Segments Example • Care label says: “Dry at 130°F” • Without segment based drying you dry at 130°F • With segment based drying you can dry like this • At 190°F until 30% moisture remaining • At 160°F until 20% moisture remaining • At 130°F until target moisture is reached

  7. OPT vs. Auto Dry • Auto Dry calculates the drying time on the first heat cycle • OPT determines the remaining moisture based on input from the sensors throughout the ENTIRE cycle • The result is that OPT is VERY accurate 75 lb Natural Gas Tumble Dryer

  8. ALS Moisture Sensing Survey • 79% respondents believe laundries over-dry by more than 8 minutes. • 84% respondents believe that only 20% of managers realize they are over-drying. OPT: Over-drying Prevention Technology Reduce Labor Costs Lower Energy/Utility Costs Lower Linen Replacement Costs Maintenance Free Performance

  9. Labor Cost is 50% on Every $1.00 • Laundry facilities are less efficient due to over-drying. Reducing over-drying can: • Increase throughput • Decrease cycle times • Reduce utility waste • Lessen the frequency of linen replacement due to reduced fabric wear. • OPT is also valuable in WET cleaning applications where accurate moisture is important for fabric conditioning. OPT maximize throughput and minimize operating cost

  10. Efficiency • Drying efficiency is often defined with terms like “gas usage” and “input Btus” • Reducing utilities doesn’t address a laundry most significant expense—Labor • On average laundry facilities spend 10 times on labor cost as they do on utilities

  11. by the Numbers • If a laundry facility is over-drying by 8 minutes per load with a 75 lb tumbler, OPT can save: • $883 per year in natural gas utilities • $4,867 per year in labor • If the laundry can process just one more load per day with a 75 lb tumbler for the duration of a year with a 75 lb: • The laundry can process an extra 18,250 lbs per year Over-drying costs tumblers users utilities and throughput. OPT can reduce utility costs and increase throughput.

  12. The Cost of Over-drying

  13. Affect on Linens • Linen replacement cost can range between 18-25% of the laundry dollar. • When over-drying is eliminated linens experience 31% less fiber loss. *According to ALS lab tests

  14. How OPT Works • OPT measures the conductivity of the load • Measurement is read between a maintenance free electrically isolated lifter and the cylinder wall. • As the load dries, conductivity decreases. • The conductivity signal (wetness) of the load is transferred from the rotating cylinder to a rotational switch located in the center of the cylinder bulkhead. • The maintenance free rotational switch transfers the signal to stationary wires. • The wires transfer the signal to the control. • The control reads the moisture level of the load. • The control discontinues drying when the user set remaining moisture content is attained

  15. Sensing Layout

  16. Competition’s Moisture Sensing ADC Stationary bulk head 2 in2 of load contact Hard wire 3 moisture level settings Electrolux/ Wascomat 16+ moisture level settings Similar in2 of load contact as IPSO Brush contactor may degrade over time

  17. OPT 12+ moisture level settings 534 in2 of load contact Maintenance free signal transmission

  18. New OPL Micro Control- OPT highlights • Advanced algorithm allows for moisture level selection of 0,1,3,5,7,10,15,20,25,30,35,40% • Additional heat time for fine tuning • 6 Load material type selections • ADC has 3 general moisture settings • Miele, Electrolux/ Wascomat also have multiple settings • Lifter Used as Sensors • Two entire lifters used for sensing • Lifters are isolated from cylinder • Load provides conductance from lifter to tumbler • Maintenance free • ADC momentarilytouches the load with one small set of stationary contact strips • Miele, Electrolux/ Wascomat use lifters • Rotational OPT Switch Assembly • Receives constant signal from sensors and sends to micro controller • Rotational Switch life expectancy- billions of rotations • Maintenance free • ADC limited to testing a small sample of the entire load • Miele, Electrolux/ Wascomat use external brush contactors susceptible to wear and maintenance
