OPTIONAL MANUAL BYPASS
Provisions are made in the dryer fire suppression system (F.S.S.) system for the installation of an optional
manual bypass. Depending on the model dryer, the connections for the manual bypass are made at the T or
four way fitting located in the outlet supply side of the water solenoid valve. The use and connections of this
manual bypass are at the option or discretion of the owner.
The water connection for the manual bypass is made to the T or four way fitting which has a 3/8 F.P.T. and
a coupling must be used to provide the minimum 1/2-inch (12.7 mm) supply (feed) line.
If the rear area of the dryer, or the water supply is located in an area where it will be exposed to cold/freezing
temperatures, provisions must be made to protect these water lines from freezing.
WARNING: If the water in the supply line or water solenoid valve freezes, the F.S.S. system will be
INOPERATIVE!!
The manual ball cock shutoff valve must be located outside of the dryer at a distance from the dryer where it is
easily accessible.
