Econo Red II Production Infrared Dryer
Econo Red II Production Infrared Dryer - 30 Inch Belt / 240V / 1 Phase
SKU:
Cure screen-printed plastisols, water-based inks, discharge and/or DTF adhesives at high rates.
Econo Red II dryers in 30 and 54 in. (76 and 137 cm) belt widths cure garments screen-printed with plastisol, water-based inks and discharge, and/or DTF adhesives at high rates. The modular design allows for expandability to easily add chambers and conveyor length as production needs increase.
A top-mounted ventilation system filters exhaust air, cools the enclosure's outer skin, and evacuates moisture and fumes from the heating chamber. It also makes ER-II dryers over 20 percent quieter and 5 in. (13 cm) narrower, and allows the control box to be positioned the right side (standard) or left side of the enclosure to suit shop layouts.
All heaters feature closely spaced coils that provide high-density, medium-wavelength infrared heat for maximum cure speed without cold spots or under-curing, and come with a 15-year warranty.
The Vastex Infrared Focusing System allows heater adjustment to any height from 2 to 7 in. (5.1 to 17.8 cm) above the belt, allowing the operator to compensate for bulky garments or hats, and can be customized to provide additional heater clearance.
All models include a digital belt speed display and a belt tracking system for increased belt life. The digital PID temperature controller is accurate to +/- 1°F (+/-0.5°C), allowing the operator to fine-tune or accurately repeat drying results at any future time.

Modular Expandability Allows Your Dryer to Grow With You
The capacity (belt speed) of all Vastex floor standing conveyor dryers can be doubled or tripled as new or when needs increase by simply adding one or two modular heating chambers and extending the conveyor belt. This eliminates the need to invest in a larger dryer than you need at the onset, and avoids the high cost of purchasing a new dryer when your needs increase.

All amps shown are FLA (Full Load Amps), not recommended line size! Dryers on this page must be hard wired to the power terminal provided. A licensed electrician must be consulted and should refer to articles, 210.20(a), 215.3 and 310 of the NEC code.
This dryer does not come with a plug. A plug will need to be added to the supplied pigtail, or the machine will need to be wired direct. We recommend speaking with an electrician if you have any questions.
