Precautions when drying with spice dryer

2023-02-28



Now many farmers are using the dryer to dry crops such as Chinese medicinal materials. So when we use the octagonal dryer What should be paid attention to when drying octagonal?
1. Choose the right octagonal dryer
When we choose a dryer, we should consider the size of our drying room, and the number of applicable octagonal dryers is also different. In addition, if the drying room is not sealed well, the filter screen of the octagonal dryer is not cleaned, etc. Thermal effects are affected.
2. Choose the right temperature
Do not set the temperature too high, the temperature must be set according to the material to be dried, otherwise the temperature of the dryer is not enough or the temperature of the dryer is too high will affect the quality of the material.
3. Ensure the sealing of the drying room. When the dryer is turned on, the doors and windows of the drying room must be closed tightly, otherwise the heating temperature will be insufficient.
4. Use high wind as much as possible, which saves electricity and has good effect. When the wind is high, the wind may be low, but the high wind can easily circulate the indoor air, and the room temperature is relatively uniform. If it is too low, just blow it down.
5. Keep low humidity. When heating, the air in the drying room will become dry. When using a dryer to dry materials, the humidity in the drying room must be kept low, otherwise the dried materials cannot evaporate the moisture.
6. Keep the dryer clean. When we use the dryer to dry materials, we must simply clean them after drying to facilitate subsequent drying of materials. If the secondary materials are mixed together, it will affect the quality of the materials.
7. Clean the filter screen frequently. When heating in winter, the dryer will turn on the electric auxiliary heating. The dust accumulated inside the heat pump main unit will be roasted and emit peculiar smell under the heating of the electric auxiliary heating tube. At the same time, the dirty filter screen will cause heat Unable to spread, resulting in air conditioning failure and fire.



What are the drying processes of the spice dryer?
1) Before using the star anise dryer to dry the star anise, it must be finished first, so that the color after drying can meet the ideal requirements.
2) Perform drying operation: set the octagonal heat pump dryer to the drying mode, set the temperature to 60°C, and then dry for 1 hour. Note that dehumidification is not required at this stage, the purpose is to control the color.
3) Adjust the drying mode of the octagonal heat pump dryer to drying + dehumidification, adjust the temperature to 55°C, and dry for 3 hours. Note that a lot of dehumidification is required at this stage.
4) Keep the drying + dehumidification mode, adjust the temperature to 50°C, and dry for 3 hours. Note that a lot of dehumidification is required at this stage.
5) Continue to maintain the drying + dehumidification mode, adjust the temperature to 45°C, and dry for 3 hours. Note that there is relatively little moisture at this stage and it can be drained slowly.
6) Adjust the mode to drying mode, adjust the temperature to 65°C, and dry for 2 hours. The drying process is over.
