Advanced temperature control
Precision temperature adjustment before and after the drum, with custom drying profiles to suit every fabric type, load size and programme requirement.
Drying is the single biggest energy consumer in any laundry, so the ED Series is engineered around one idea: get the linen dry in the shortest possible time using the least possible energy, without cooking the fibres. Advanced moisture control, variable-frequency drive and the Transflow drying system deliver uniform, gentle drying across capacities from 13kg to 63kg, in gas, electric or steam.

Heating options: gas, electric, steam
Inteli
Icon-based control interface
Premium performance for premium drying
Every element of the ED Series targets cost per kilo: how quickly heat reaches the fibre, how much of it escapes the cabinet, and how soon the cycle stops once the linen is actually dry. Advanced, fast and efficient drying that saves time and money while caring for linen and the environment.
Transflow drying system
Radial and axial airflow combined penetrate between garments rather than skimming past them, giving uniform drying in shorter cycles with zero heat leakage.
Advanced moisture sensor
High-precision residual moisture control ends the cycle at exactly the right moment. No over-drying, shorter cycles, less gas burned and less fibre damage on every load.
Embossed drum design
Drum holes are stamped rather than drilled, eliminating the sharp edges that shred fabric. Longer-lasting linen and visibly better textile care.
Inteli control panel
Intuitive icon-based interface with up to 50 multi-phase programmes. Operators adjust temperature, airflow, drum speed and mechanical intensity phase by phase.
Easy maintenance access
Front-access design, folding control panel and a large-capacity lint filter make servicing quick. Reinforced bearings and a toothed belt need no retightening.
No drum support wheels
The drum does not rest on support wheels, so rotation is smoother and quieter and one of the most common wear items on a commercial dryer simply is not there.
Automatic rotation control
Whatever the load size or cycle phase, drum speed adjusts automatically to keep garments in a floating state, delivering an optimal finish and extending fabric life.
GDrive inverter system
Inverter, motor and microprocessor work as one to balance rotation speed and reversal intervals by fabric type, cutting energy draw and mechanical stress.
Efficiency
Efficiency drives savings
Drying consumes more energy than any other process in laundering. The ED Series optimises energy use and achieves better results in less time, which makes it the single most effective place to attack running costs in an on-premise or commercial laundry.
- Transflow combines radial and axial airflow for optimal penetration of the load
- Full thermal insulation, no heat leakage into the laundry room
- Double-glazed door reduces heat loss and improves operator comfort
- Variable airflow adapts to drying requirements on ED900 and ED1250
- GDrive links inverter, motor and microprocessor for balanced operation
- Moisture sensing removes the wasted full-heat minutes at the end of a timed cycle
Fabric care
Quality fabric care that shows on the linen bill
The Care drum system keeps wear on fabrics to a minimum. Pressing out the holes in the drum instead of drilling them makes all the difference in textile treatment. Combined with advanced rotation control, linen lasts longer and feels softer in the guest's hand.
- Stainless steel AISI 430 drum with stamped perforations and no sharp edges
- No drum bearing wheels, so rotation is smoother, quieter and lower maintenance
- Automatic drum speed regulation keeps garments floating rather than tumbling flat
- Anti-wrinkle function activates if linen is left in the drum after the cycle ends
- Wet Cleaning compatible with a dual temperature sensor for delicate fabrics
- Oversized door for fast, low-strain loading and unloading
Running costs
Pair a 450G washer with an ED dryer
Drying performance starts in the washer. Linen leaving a 450G Genius extract holds around 8 percent less water than a 200G hard-mount machine, and it takes roughly 50 percent longer to dry the output of a 200G washer. Match the two and you compound the saving on every load, every day.
- Around 10 percent shorter drying time per load
- Lower gas and electricity draw on your largest energy line
- Higher machine turnover without adding floor space
- Less thermal stress on linen, so replacement cycles stretch out
Safety and reliability
Built for unattended operation
Dryers are the highest fire risk in a laundry, and reducing maintenance is what keeps them efficient. The ED Series is built with simplicity in mind: reliable solutions that do not require complexity, which matters when machines run overnight or on unattended vend sites.
- Cool Down safety system prevents linen being left hot in the drum
- Integrated fire prevention system
- Large-capacity, easy-access lint filter that releases fibrin properly
- Front-access servicing and a folding control panel
- Reinforced bearings and a no-retighten toothed belt drive
- Reversible door direction to suit the room, not the other way around
Connectivity
Programmed and monitored through Sapphire
Like the Genius washers, ED Series dryers connect to the Sapphire cloud platform through the Connectivity Box. Programs roll out across the fleet from a laptop, faults are emailed before they become downtime, and production reporting shows exactly where cycle time is being lost.
- Remote programming across every machine at once
- Alarm notification by email to laundry management
- Production and utilisation reporting per machine
- Automatic software updates without a site visit
- Official Girbau warranty, extendable via MyGirbau registration

Frequently asked questions
What capacities are available in the ED Series?
Six models from the ED260 at 13kg through to the ED1250 at 62.5kg, in gas, electric or steam heating. Most sites run two or three matched machines rather than one large one, so a fault never stops the whole laundry.
What size dryer do I need for my washer?
As a rule of thumb, dryer capacity should be equal to or slightly larger than washer capacity so a full wash load transfers in one go. Pairing an 18kg washer with an ED460 is a common configuration. We size it properly against your linen mix.
How does the moisture sensor work?
It measures residual moisture in the load in real time and ends the cycle the moment target dryness is reached, instead of running a fixed timer. That removes the wasted full-heat minutes at the end of every load and stops linen being cooked.
Gas, electric or steam?
Gas is usually the lowest running cost where a supply exists. Electric suits sites without gas or with solar generation. Steam suits central laundries that already run a boiler. We will compare all three against your utility tariffs.
What is the Transflow drying system?
Most dryers push air across the load. Transflow combines radial and axial airflow so air penetrates between garments and dries from inside the load outwards. The result is uniform drying on mixed loads in shorter cycles, with no heat leaking into the room.
Why does the embossed drum matter?
Drilled drum holes leave microscopic sharp edges that abrade fabric on every rotation. Stamping the holes removes those edges, so the same linen survives more cycles. On a large linen stock that difference is worth more than the energy saving.
What ventilation and make-up air is required?
Each model has a specified exhaust duct size and make-up air requirement. Under-provisioned ducting is the most common cause of poor drying performance we see on site, so we check it at design stage rather than after installation.
Can dryers be stacked?
Yes, stacked configurations are available in the smaller capacities and are commonly used in laundromats and shared living to double capacity in the same floor area.
Can ED dryers run on a vended, self-service site?
Yes. They are compatible with coin-op and cashless self-service configurations, and integrate with Tangerpay, BubblePay, AirWallet and Nayax for app-based payment, remote pricing and reporting.
Who services the machines once installed?
Aqualogic's own technicians, nationally. We hold Australia's largest commercial laundry parts inventory, so the common wear items for the ED range are on the shelf rather than on a boat.
