GENERAL SAFTEY INFORMATION
This product is part of a high pressure system and the following safety precautions must be followed at all times along with any other existing safety rules.
Read this instruction manual before installing this device to the air supply system. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the proper use of the equipment.
1.
Safety glasses must be worn during operation. Always work in a well-ventilated area.
2.
Do not exceed any pressure rating of any component in the system.
3.
Protect air lines from damage and/or punctures.
4.
Check air hose for weak or worn condition before each use. Make sure all connections are secure.
5.
Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight and ensure equipment is in safe working condition.
DANGER
This product is specifically designed for compressed air service ONLY. Use with any other material (liquid or gas) is a misapplication and not permitted. Use or injection of certain
hazardous liquids or gases in the system (such as oxygen. Alcohol or liquid petroleum gas) will harm the unit and result in a combustible or hazardous external leakage. Misapplication
will void all warranties and manufacturer’s responsibilities.
DANGER
The relief flow capacity of regulators is limited. Install additional pressure relief devices to alleviate over pressurized conditions. Written approval must be obtained from the
manufacturer if this device is to be used for life support systems or other non-industrial applications.
INSTALLATION
1.
The assembly of all calibration shall meet the maximum flow requirement.
2.
Direction air flow in the triangle “ “on the primary unit.
3.
Position water discharge, the triangle “ “downward.
4.
Site as close to the unit to be protected as possible.
5.
Place free of direct sun shine, hot area, and hazardous chemicals.
6.
The water drainage shall be deployed beneath the water discharge for outlet of water into a proper area.
OPERATION/MAINTENANCE
1.
Before pressurizing system, make certain the bowl is securely locked in place by hand tightening the bowl ring until it is snug.
2.
Unlock the regulator adjusting knob by pulling knob away from the regulator.
3.
Turn the regulator adjusting knob counter-clockwise until no load is on the regulating spring.
4.
Turn on the air pressure supply and turn the adjusting knob clockwise until the desired outlet pressure is reached. Push the regulator adjusting knob toward the regulator to lock
in desired pressure.
5.
Inspect and replace cracked, damaged or deteriorated seals. Wipe bowls with soft, dry cloth to clean.
6.
Replace filter element when filter element becomes dirty and the flow and filter are less effective.
7.
Drain bowls at least once per work shift to avoid spray or splatter, cover bottom of filter with a cloth and turn the manual drain.
8.
Before placing the unit in service, make sure the bowl is reinstalled and securely in place.
