EbacUSA FD100 Lumber Dryer 220V 13223BB-US

Controlled lumber drying for wood retailers and craftspeople who want to manage their own kiln-drying process.

The EbacUSA FD100 Lumber Dryer, part number 13223BB-US, is designed for installation in a purpose-built, insulated drying chamber. Used with the STC1 controller, it provides control over the drying and heating cycles so you can prepare lumber for your production needs rather than relying entirely on purchased kiln-dried stock.

Ebac lists a typical load of 7 cubic metres and describes drying to wood moisture content as low as 6%. Results depend on the lumber, chamber design, airflow, and drying schedule. This is specialised timber-drying equipment, not a general-purpose room dehumidifier or a complete supplied kiln chamber.

Commercial and Industrial Applications

The FD100 is intended for wood retailers and craftspeople who require controlled supplies of dried lumber. An in-house drying system gives you flexibility over when timber is processed and how dried stock is matched to workshop demand.

Ebac describes the system as suitable for mixed species and board thicknesses, subject to appropriate drying instructions. For 1-inch hardwood, the manufacturer recommends a drying rate of 1% per day or less. Select the schedule for the actual wood being dried rather than assuming a fixed completion time.

Performance and Construction

The STC1 controller uses a proportional timer for the drying cycle and a thermostat for the heating cycle. Its electronic thermometer displays chamber temperature for monitoring, and the controls are housed in a moisture-resistant casing with a transparent hinged cover. Confirm whether the STC1 controller is supplied with the package being ordered.

The FD100 has a slim wall-mounted design intended for positioning near ceiling height in the drying chamber. Ebac states that mounting brackets and securing hardware are supplied with the dryer. This arrangement limits the space occupied by the unit and helps retain access along the lumber stack.

Air movement through the stack is an important part of the system. Ebac describes two supplemental fans for distributing warm, dry air; confirm their supply and installation requirements when planning your chamber. The manufacturer states that extra venting units and supplementary heaters are normally not required when the system is properly configured.

What’s Included

• 1 FD100 lumber dryer
• 1 FD100 owner’s manual
• 1 length of 16mm ID PVC tubing, 3 metres long
• 1 Jubilee hose clip
• Mounting brackets and securing hardware, as stated in Ebac’s installation information

Ebac discusses the STC1 controller and two supplemental fans as system components, but does not itemise them in the page’s box-contents list. Confirm their inclusion before ordering. The drying chamber is constructed separately.

Why Choose the FD100?

The FD100 offers a way to bring controlled lumber drying into your own operation. Its compact wall-mounted layout and STC1-based cycle control suit a planned drying chamber, with scheduling guided by the timber and your required final moisture content rather than a one-size-fits-all drying cycle.
