Abstract (en)
A dryer 1 comprising a drum 2 and a process air circuit 3, which includes a blower 12 ; a condensing device 18; a condensate collecting vessel 5; a condensate tank 6; an overflow container 8 in which the condensate tank 6 is placed; an electric pump unit 7 associated to the condensate collecting vessel 5; a pump conduit 9 fluidly connecting a pump outlet 35 to a condensate tank inlet 36; an overflow conduit 10 fluidly connecting the overflow container 8 to the condensate collecting vessel 5; wherein the pump conduit 9 and the overflow conduit 10 are adapted to conduct at least part of the water 22 that is transported from the condensate collecting vessel 5 towards the condensate tank 6 back to the condensate collecting vessel 5 without entering the condensate tank 6; and wherein an overflow siphon 24 is located in the overflow conduit 10.
