Setting the automatic mode:
O
Open the drain screw by turning it all the way to the left.
You may leave the screw one turn deep in the thread or remove it completely.
Draining condensate manually
See “Manual condensate drain”
Fully automatic condensate drain
"Normally open" configuration
In the “normally open” configuration, the condensate drain closes at a pressure > 1.5 bar and
opens at an operating pressure < 1.5 bar. The valve opens automatically as soon as the floater
reaches the highest point and closes again when the floater reaches the lowest point.
Setting the automatic mode:
O
Turn the drain screw to the right as far as it will go.
You may leave the screw one turn deep in the thread or remove it completely.
"Normally closed" configuration
The condensate drain is closed regardless of the operating pressure.
The valve opens automatically as soon as the floater reaches the highest point and closes again
when the floater reaches the lowest point.
Manual condensate drain
The condensate (
b
= max. capacity) can be drained manually.
1.
Turn drain screw (
a
) a few rotations to the left until the condensate flows out.
2.
Turn drain screw (
a
) all the way to the right (closed position).
Draining condensate via the tube
1.
Turn drain screw (
a
) to left and remove it.
2.
Attach one end of the hose to the reservoir and insert the other end into a receptacle.

Service and Repairs
Cleaning and servicing
W
Seal all openings with suitable protective caps to prevent detergents from penetrating the system.
W
Never use solvents or strong detergents. Only clean the product using a slightly damp cloth.
Only use water and, if necessary, a mild detergent.
W
Do not use high-pressure cleaners for cleaning.
W
Do not use compressed air for cleaning (blowing off) maintenance units or maintenance devices.
Changing the filter element
Filters become contaminated with use and must be changed annually. This, however, is only a
recommendation, since the change intervals depend on the quality of the compressed air and the
amount of air throughput.
To place your order, use the material (part) numbers listed below.
You can find the addresses for AVENTICS GmbH national representatives at

.
Exchanging the filter element
1.
Loosen the ring (
), and pull it off downwards (
).
2.
Loosen the protective guard (
), if present, and pull it off downwards.
3.
Pull off the reservoir (
) and the seal (
) downwards.
4.
Unscrew the filter seat (
).
5.
Exchange the filter piece (
).
6.
Slide the filter unit (filter seat and filter piece) back together.
7.
Connect the filter unit to the filter and tighten it slightly by hand (
).
8.
Remount the reservoir and, if present, the protective guard in reverse order as shown in
Figure .
If the screw is screwed in completely, the automatic drainage is blocked.
If the screw is screwed in completely, the automatic drainage is blocked.
CAUTION
System is operating under pressure!
Opening the system when it is under pressure can result in personal injury and cause damage
to the maintenance unit/device.
O
Ensure that the system is pressure-free before opening the reservoir.

Oil separator
The oil separator removes oil from the exhaust; the filtering efficiency is 99.99%.
The oil separator can also be used as a silencer, with a noise reduction of > 40 dB(A).
Connecting the oil separator to the tubing system or maintenance unit
The ideal mounting position is at the end of the air circuit.
O
See Figure
.
O
Screw the tube into the selected G 1/2 connection.
Selecting a connection
You can choose between the connection on top or on the side (
a
,
b
).
The unused connection is closed with a square (
a
,
b
).
Mounting the hose for controlled drainage
A hose (
c
) can be plugged onto the oil drainage fitting at the bottom for controlled oil drainage.
Draining oil manually
1.
Open the locking ring (
d
) by turning.
2.
Drain the bottom part.
3.
Close the locking ring (
d
) again by turning.
Changing the filter element

Condensate separator
The condensate separator discharges condensate and oil from the compressed air network.
Connecting the condensate separator to the tubing system or maintenance unit
The ideal mounting position is at the lowest point of the compressed air network.
O
See Figure

O
Screw the tube into the selected G 1/2 connection.
Semiautomatic condensate drain
The semi-automatic condensate drain closes at a pressure > 1.5 bar and opens at an operating
pressure < 1.5 bar.
Setting the automatic mode:
O
Turn the locking wheel (
b
) all the way to the left.
You may leave the screw one turn deep in the thread or remove it completely.
Connecting the hose
A hose (
a
) can be plugged onto the oil drain at the bottom for controlled oil drainage.
1.
Turn the locking wheel (
b
) to the left and remove it.
2.
Attach one end of the hose to the reservoir (
a
) and insert the other end into a receptacle.
Exchanging the filter element
1.
Pull release (
a
) downwards, then turn reservoir (
b
) to the left and pull it off downwards (
c
).
CAUTION
Danger of injury if disassembled or exchanged under pressure or voltage!
Disassembly or exchange when under pressure or electrical voltage can lead to injuries and
damage to the product or the system components.
O
Make sure that the relevant system part is not under pressure or voltage before
disassembling the product or exchanging parts.
O
Protect the system against being switched on.
CAUTION
System is operating under pressure!
Opening the system when it is under pressure can result in personal injury and cause damage
to the maintenance unit/device.
O
Ensure that the system is pressure-free before opening the reservoir.
