1. Check the temperature of drying air, air static pressure at the plenum, and grain depth when operating dryer.
2. When drying palay for seed purposes, the temperature should not exceed 43℃ for commercial purposes (milled rice), a higher temperature of up to 52℃ can be used.
3. When drying dripping wet palay or those with relatively high moisture contents, operate the dryer with unheated air during the first 1-2 hours of drying.
4. Maintain the depth of seeds in the drying bin at 1 foot deep uniformly. Avoid stepping directly on the grain to avoid compaction of seeds on some portions of the drying bin.
This will affect the uniformity of air flow passing through the grain mass.
5 To check if the blower is supplying the right volume of air per unit time (or if the desired static pressure at the plenum is attained), place a whole sheet of bond paper on top of the grain- filled drying bin.
The paper should float (approximately 0.5-1 centimeter from the surface of the grain mass)
when placed anywhere on top of the drying bin under normal operating conditions.
