SL-20
click for a larger view

The efficient SL-20 provides lower heat input and lower airflow than other commercial dryers in its capacity range without sacrificing drying speed. The unique space-saving cabinet design enables units to be stacked one on top of the other to maximize floor space.

Benefits

Drying Performance: The SL-20 achieves outstanding drying performance. The unique design with 100% axial airflow allows for optimal drying performance in gas, steam, or electrically heated dryers. Dramatic utility savings are realized without sacrificing dry times.

Easy To Use Microprocessor Controls: Solaris dryers are equipped with a state-of-the-art computer board that constantly monitors the drying cycle from beginning to end. The Residual Moisture Control auto-dry feature provides pinpoint accuracy, preventing over-drying, which saves time and energy. The multi-lingual micro is also self-diagnostic, which means problems are quickly identified and downtime is reduced. On-premise units feature our S.A.F.E., sensor activated fire extinguishing system, which virtually eliminates the risk of fires due to spontaneous combustion.

Durability: The SL-20 features a rugged four-wheel support system that parallels the design of larger industrial dryers. Stainless steel tumblers, door hinges and lint screens are impervious to corrosion while heavy-duty doors feature a heat-saving double glass design. Components are 98% front accessible for ease of service.
