Hi. I’m Julia, a technical service representative at Excel Dryer. Excel Dryer manufactures hand dryers in East Longmeadow, Massachusetts. We are proud to say we make the only hand dryer that is made in the USA certified. We have created a series of videos to help you maintain your Excel hand dryer. This video will instruct you how to replace the sensor in your XLERATOR hand dryer and also how to adjust sensor range.
First, disconnect the power supply to the dryer usually located in your electrical panel box and remove your cover.
Confirm power is disconnected by checking if there is any voltage at the terminal block.
Before removing the optic from the bracket make note of the position.
Remove the two screws holding the optic bracket to the housing.
For better accessibility to the sensor connector loosen but do not remove the two screws that hold the control to the bracket.
Slide the bracket up and forward.
Remove sensor connector.
Pinch the wire harness connected to the control and remove.
Then remove two screws holding the optic to the bracket. Be sure to save the screws.
Position the new optic onto the bracket with the screws previously removed.
Install screws into sensor side first.
Reconnect the optic sensor connector to the control.
Then slide control back onto the housing and tighten both screws.
Reconnect wire harness connector to control.
Install new optic bracket onto housing using two screws previously removed.
Reinstall the cover being careful to align the new optic lense to the opening in the cover.
Restore power to the dryer and test for proper operation.
