petitor Series Dryers
GSI Competitor 100 Series grain dryers offer all the latest
technological advancements you would expect from a quality
drying system at a very competitive price. These single fan
dryers feature microprocessor based controls with computer
assisted operation and automated load and unload capabili-
ties. Extremely efficient and easy to operate, the Competitor
Series can effectively speed up your operation without sacri-
ficing grain quality.
Not exactly an electronics major? No problem, the 100
Series dryer performs with practically a mind of its own and
operating a dryer has never been easier. Easy access gauges
and switches with
indicator lights
provide quick ref-
erence for every
operating function
of the dryer. The
flexible operation
gives the user a
choice between
continuous flow
or staged batch
operation with the flip of a switch. All dryer times
and temperatures including, grain and plenum
temperature, batch timers, level auger
delay, out of grain timer, unload
cleanout delay and moisture control
Designed for today’s
demanding applications,
GSI’s Competitor 100
Series dryers have the
brawn and the brains to
keep you ahead of the harvest year after year. See for
yourself the difference a GSI Competitor
Series dryer can make by contacting
your local GSI dealer or give us a

LCD display panel. The Series 2000 computer control eliminates
99% of all moving parts in the control box, such as troublesome
timers, mechanical relays, thermostats and time delays saving in
setup time and dryer efficiency.
THE COMPETITIVE EDGE
easy operation
The GSI Competitor 100 Series is blowing away the competition with system featuresand controls unavailable through any other manufacturer. This line of single fan
portable grain dryers offers superb drying efficiency and tremendous savings whichlasts from season to season.

The"smart" system eliminates guesswork by telling the operator instantinformation via a custom backlit LCD display.
Several unique basket features are avail-
able for convenience and drying efficiency.
Perforated wet bins are used to enhance
preheating and allow visual inspection of
the grain flow. The low 14' 6" height with
wet bin allows the dryer to fit in places oth-

The high efficiency, one-piece fan and heater uti-
lizes only low speed, low noise fans, while providing
optimum heated air flow for every drying application.
All units use fiberglass reinforced polypropylene fan
blades that feature an extremely low starting load,
high air flow across a wide static pressure range,
precise balance and quiet operation. The Optimizer
Blue Burn System is standard on all LP models.
Versatile on/off or high/low cycling assures energy
efficient burner operation for all fuel mixes. An
Electronic Ignition System is used to monitor the
burner and a view window is provided to observe
burner operation. In addition, the Series 2000 con-
trol allows monitoring and controlling of plenum
temperature and the Airstream fan and heater's easy
to adjust vaporizer, large service access doors and
oil filled gas gauges make it a big hit among
portable dryer users.

Moisture control is essential to a continuous flow
dryer. GSI's Airstream moisture control is the ulti-
mate in even moisture regulation. Sensing probes
throughout the grain columns monitor temperature,
thereby determining moisture, and adjusting the
grain flow as necessary utilizing a 2-speed high low
system. The computerized controls start all dryer
fan, load and unload motors sequentially and switch
positioning is monitored in the staged batch mode
for proper placement.

of drying. The wet bin comes standard
on 16'-26' dryers and is an available
option on 8'-14' dryers. Wide 14" grain
columns hold the maximum amount of
grain while assuring even, efficient dry-
ing from the inside to the outside of the
column. The plenum also has an air
mixing chamber to mix the air and heat,
and to shield the grain columns from
direct contact with the burner flame.
The computerized controls are housed in an all galvanized control box
that features double sealed doors and no-weld construction. All dryer
operations can be viewed through UV protected safety glass. All elec-
tronics are extensively protected against electrical spikes and surges.
It is completely designed to be the ultimate protection for computerized
components in a rugged grain drying environment.
The control box is mounted on ver-
tical rails, making adjustment of its
height possible depending on the
height of the dryer after installation.
Branch circuit breakers are used in
all voltages and control transformer
wiring for the 110V control circuit
and 220V SCR drive circuit are sep-
arated on all 440V dryers to prevent
power surges from unstable power
supplies. High quality compression terminals are used for all motor con-
nections as well as computer control circuits. To insure safe, reliable
operation, we also include a ground rod in each dryer for proper ground-
ing of the dryer.
Double galvanized 3-piece
steel dryer screens (G165, 2
ounce nominally applied galva-
nizing) are used for increased
protection from the elements.
Small grains, 0.050" perforated galvanized screens are also
available. Optional stainless steel bolts, nuts and outer screens
can also provide for the utmost in corrosion resistance.
All Airstream dryers have an emergency cooling mode. This
enables an Airstream dryer to run only the fans whenever a grain
or plenum high limit safety has caused a shutdown. Whenever a
shutdown occurs, an emergency cooling mode can be initiated
that will run only the fans to allow the high limit to cool and reset
safeties to normal operating condition. Once started, the fans
will run for five minutes and then stop, allowing the operator to
restart the dryer providing safeties have returned to normal.

An air switch is mounted on the front of the dryer to read
air pressure in the plenum instead of airflow from the fan.
This provides a more reliable proof of airflow than the typical
sail switches or interconnects. This type of airflow monitoring
system is also proven to be the safest and most dependable
airflow monitoring system available.
GSI/Airstream dryers feature a totally computerized 12 volt
DC safety system with the capability of monitoring a compre-
hensive set of safety controls. The drying chamber is equip-
ped with plenum temperature high limit controls and an air
pressure sensor. Fan housing temperature limit, vaporizer tem-
perature limit, grain temperature high limits, grain discharge
and flame detection are all monitored as well.
For easy access to the unload auger and metering rolls a
large plenum clean out door with sealing strips was added to
prevent air pressure and heat loss into the unload chamber.
All auger flighting is standardized to eight inch diameter
and 1/4" ribbon.
Auxiliary auger overloads are provided for an additional
load and unload auger up to 7.5 horsepower.
The 100 Series dryers feature custom designed air mix cham-
bers which thoroughly mix immediate burner heat with ambient
air creating an even drying temperature in the plenum chamber
throughout the front, back and sides. An optional fill auger distri-
bution pan is also available if adverse harvest conditions result in
trash filled wet grain. The pan helps distribute fines in the top of
the dryer allowing unobstructed airflow and uniform grain move-
ment throughout the dryer.
The computer knows the difference between a safety that
opened indicating a problem with the dryer and a shutdown that
occurs during normal operation. For instance, if the out of grain
timer shuts down the dryer this is not looked at as a safety haz-
ard. So, before the dryer completely shuts down, the computer
will first allow the unload auger and any take away augers to run
long enough to clean themselves out. The amount of time they
will run is determined by the setting of the unload time delay.
