This is an American Gas Texair dryer. Not sure exactly what year it is.
It has a 15' infeed, 10' of heat, and a 5' outfeed. The outfeed has a custom hood to catch hot air.
The heat chamber has 2 electric IR panels at the infeed, then gas, then one more IR panel at the outfeed.
We replaced the belt about 2 years ago, and it is in great condition still.
Last summer we had a technician come out and tune the dryer up. We replaced the flame rod, the wiring to the first heat panel, the temperature probe, and the controller for the electric elements.
I have a bunch of spare parts for the dryer as well. I liked to keep a replacement part for anything I thought might go wrong. There is an extra controller for the gas, extra flame rod, extra wiring and wire ends, extra temperature probe and probe wire, extra main board thingy, extra doodad that controls the gas flow, extra gas pressure sensor, and a few other odds and ends.
This dryer is super simple. Any time anything would go wrong, I could easily get it going again, and most often with parts from Grainger that I could get the same day.
We've been using this dryer for 7 or 8 years now and it has been very dependable. The temperatures for both electric and gas hold very steady.
We ran this with two autos at the end, and a manual on either side.
We are only getting rid of it to replace with a wider split belt dryer. This is our only dryer, and it has been very reliable. It is a tank.
Our new dryer will be here at the end of next week, so this one will be available after the 13th.
Asking $2900.

Pick up is preferred. I've moved this dryer twice and it isn't too bad. It needs to be moved on a flat bed trailer though so shipping might be complicated.
I have a trailer I can put it on, and can deliver up to maybe 200 miles for a fee. You will need to have a forklift at the delivery location though.

Lowering price to $2000. This is a very dependable dryer. If the infeed is to long for you, it could be shortened to 8'.

This is a great dryer if you're trying to add that 2nd or 3rd auto. It works flawlessly.

Please ignore the fuzz on the outside. Probably should have wiped it down.

Has a ton of new parts installed, in fact I just installed a new contactor for the electric elements last week.
