Oshkosh, Wis. – May 19, 2026 – Poseidon Textile Care Systems® (Poseidon) recently enhanced its industry-leading EDS-Series Dryer line, improving everything from durability and serviceability to performance. Since 2015, the proven EDS Dryer Series has set the standard for safe, efficient drying of wet cleaned garments and laundry. The newly enhanced EDS Dryer line includes 35, 50, 70 and 95 pound capacity models.
Poseidon EDS Dryers are built to handle the diverse demands of modern textile care. From wedding dresses and cashmere sweaters to linens, silks and cottons, garments move directly from dryer to finisher without air drying – saving valuable time while maintaining garment shape, hand feel and quality.
“The EDS textile care dryer offers the ultimate in programmability to allow textile care operations to precisely and gently remove residual moisture from even the most delicate items,” said Joel Jorgensen, Continental Laundry Solutions (Continental) Vice President of Sales. “They’re specifically engineered for textile care and the special requirements needed for wet cleaning, while offering excellent efficiency and maximize throughput.”
Advanced Technology, Simplified Operation
The new models carry forward Poseidon’s hallmark innovations while making operation simple for any team member:
- Inteli Control System allows users to choose from 10 pre-set and 40 customizable programs. PRO MODE allows advanced programming by phase (temperature, moisture level, drum speed, reversing time), while EASY USE MODE offers one-touch convenience with ECO, Soft and ½ Load settings. Operators can also adjust temperature, time and drum speed on the fly – without stopping the cycle.
- Moisture Sensing & Reversing automatically prevents over-drying, reduces tangling and extends fabric life.
- Dual Temperature Sensors, positioned at the airflow inlet and outlet, monitor conditions in real-time for total control and safe cooling. The EDS allows precise control of inlet heat and cylinder temperatures, creating perfect conditions for safely drying a broad variety of delicate textiles and fabrics.
- Transflow Airflow Technology routes heat energy and airflow from the top-rear to bottom front of cylinder, maximizing load penetration, accelerating evaporation and speeding dry times. This exclusive technology borrows the positive efficiencies of axial airflow, while eliminating the negatives: airflow load compression, hot spots and challenging service issues of cylinder belts, roller wheel and gaskets.
- AutoSpeed automatically adjusts cylinder rotation speed based on load conditions, ensures proper load separation, eliminates tangling and results in faster dry times.
Other key features include:
- Programmable Drum Speed Control adjusts rotation speeds to minimize wear and shrinkage.
- Automatic Cool-Down prevents overheating and keeps contents at safe temperatures.
- Large door openings simplify loading and unloading.
- Intelligent Control offers full error alert menus and alarms reporting.
- New front-hinged control panel provides easy access to 90 percent of dryer troubleshooting.
- Durable construction includes industrial dual-bearings in structural housing, welded, heavy-gauge cylinder trunnion and robust cylinder shaft, trunnion and tie-rod foundation.
“Every detail of the EDS Dryer is designed to give operators confidence,” said Jorgensen. “The programmability, moisture sensing and airflow technology not only protect delicate textiles, they make the drying process faster, safer and more profitable.”
Expanding Possibilities for Wet Cleaning
Poseidon gives textile care operations the flexibility to handle larger loads while maintaining the same precise control trusted since 2015. Designed to fit in existing dryer footprints and pair with companion washers, the EDS Dryer is available in natural gas and backed by a 5-year factory parts warranty. Options include a stainless steel cylinder.
